Vera Beauty and Fashion College – Nairobi

Vera Beauty and Fashion College has its Nairobi campus on the upper floors of Agrho House on Moi Avenue, in the middle of the city centre. Started in 1998, it is a privately run college approved by TVETA and has since opened branches in Eldoret, Thika, Meru, Kirinyaga and Mombasa. Training covers hairdressing (styling, braiding, weaving, natural hair and locks, colouring, cutting and barbering), beauty therapy (facials, make-up, nails, massage, reflexology, aromatherapy, microblading) and cosmetology, alongside fashion design and creative arts, soft-furnishing interior design, event decoration, baking and a training-of-trainers course. Qualifications run from short competence certificates to diplomas and advanced diplomas, so a learner can start with one skill and build up. The college supplies the tools and products used in practicals through its own retail store, and shared spaces have free Wi-Fi.
