My FIRST post on this blog! Why I say that.... Well about 10 years ago I went to school to pursue a career in Fashion Design. Well it was exciting and new and I loved it but, I was young and in love what had happened it that my now husband and I were dating and I think I was putting all my energy on us instead of school. Which is not a bad thing but when you are young things seem pretty and pink all the time. I did finish I did get my degree, but never went through with it. Life came along and about a year ago my husband told me "why don't you go to Cosmetology school" I was so hesitant to do it. I have always done work like UP-DOS & makeup for extra cash flow but never thought in really pursuing it. Because lets face it last time I tried I didn't make it work out. In 2018 the school I attended to closed due to some FRUAD! So, I ask my self is my degree and all the hard work and hours real?? It Sucks to feel like that and as embarrassed to say but I knew I got my degree out of it and have some knowledge I took with me. As of now as I type along I am almost at 1000hrs. In Texas cosmetologist have to have 1500hrs but it recently changed to 1000hrs. I still have to complete 1500hrs and its totally fine with me because I feel like I get more of the field of the career I am about to take. I can learn from my mistakes while in school vs out in the real world.
I had no idea how much a hairstylist really had to learn! We have to know a little chemistry, anatomy, skin diseases and nail diseases . While we can not diagnose we certainly have to know what the problem is in order for us to preform what ever service we have to do on that person. So my journey started long before this career path but I am finally giving my 3rd genuine ambition filled attempt to this blog. I say 3rd because in the past 10 years I tried to do this blog/ social media thing but every time I would get to my 4-5 post I would get fearful of the "what ifs" of society and how my blog would be criticized . I focused on the negative instead of the positive. As we all age I feel like we get wiser and have more confidence in ourselves with time, it took me a while but I am here.
