Where was I???
So, it's been a while. It's september now and I'm still in hair school. Yep. Still here. I'm in Phase 3B now..(there are 4 phases) and I hope to graduate in December. WOOO HOOO!!
Gee...
so much has happened.
It's weird because, as my classmate so eloquently put it, "I spend more time with you clowns than I do with my own family!"
This is true.
I know more about these people than I ever hoped to know. But now that I know them, I can't imagine my life without them.
A quick where-I-Am-In-Hairschool-as-far-as-what-I've-learned Update:
1. Hot roots happen.
2. I could never do another perm again and be just fine with that.
3. People begin hair school with lonnnnng hair and leave with NONE. (will not happen to me.)
4. Standing on your feet all day is hard. The end.
5. New clients who re-book with you make you feel great and competent.
6. I am no longer afraid to apply a relaxer, thank you very much.
7. People lie about what they have done to their hair.
8. Some people cannot be pleased, and that's OK.
9. Everything takes longer than you think it's going to. EVERYTHING.
10. ALWAYS HAVE GUM. (*this is a good rule in AND out of the hair world)
This industry is full of amazing, talented, and strong people who take care of themselves and others the best way they know how. Beauty is power, baby!!!
So...
I'm gonna be busy the next couple weeks working on my FACE-OFF project thingy. "Hey, Leanna! What is FACE-OFF???", you might be asking yourself. Well, I'm glad you asked. It's a hair show competition betwixt US (north dallas Ogle School) and the, um...Mockingbird campus. WE HATE EACH OTHER. hahah just kidding. um anywho, It's a pretty big deal for us. It's at the Lakewood Theater and I'm a competitor! I'm working on something really super neato... So..come on out! OCT 16!!! More deets to come! Right now I'm hittin the hay.
You're sweet for reading.
(or really bored).
