Andis Company, a company focused on men’s grooming tools and education, is now accepting applications for the Andis Nation Barber Scholarship to the Barbering Program at Paul Mitchell Schools.

In its commitment to education, Andis will offer four, partial scholarships to aspiring barbers – two cosmetologists continuing their education to become licensed barbers and two new students will receive the awards.

Andis and Paul Mitchell will co-launch the scholarship program on their Facebook and Instagram channels. Applicants will be judged by a panel of men’s grooming experts from both Andis and Paul Mitchell. Judging criteria will include essays on motivation to become a barber, community involvement, and previous work experience or transferable skills applicable to the industry.

Applications will be completed via an online form on Andis' website.
