Hairdresser Gary Strachan has been working hard with RN Employment to open the salon for two weeks each month both as a training opportunity for locals and a service to the community with the aim it will eventually become a sustainable local business. The salon is located across the road from United Chemists and the shop has been given an awesome looking makeover, with help from CDP participants from RN Employment. Deadly Hair Dude will be back for the first two week stint from the 12 June, so if you are interested in either training to be a hairdresser or you just want to get your hair done, drop in to the salon and let Gary work his magic.

A lawyer-turned-hairdresser is training Indigenous students in the art of 'clippers', hoping to inspire employment opportunities by taking barbering out bush. Having called the Top End home for more than 40 years, Mr Strachan said his experiences in remote communities fuelled his eagerness to give back to community in the form of a trade. Due to officially start in September, over the course of 12 months Deadly Hair Dude will train Indigenous students from across the Top End in hairdressing and barbering. Once completing the traineeship, students can choose to continue studying a diploma or take their skills into remote communities. Prior to hairdressing, Mr Strachan said he experienced life in remote communities through a completely different lens. Former police officer Ashleigh Brown comes from a background of professional and workplace training and will assist the project by formalising the traineeship process.
