Janell Cosmetology School

Janell Cosmetology School: So far so good in Cosmetology school. I started school on August 23 and have had 2 clients at school. I enjoyed both of them. They both gave me food. One gave me mangoes which I took home to make mango salsa. The other a whole box of Dark KitKat bars that I shared with whoever wanted. It was great. They were both very nice and patient with me. The "mango lady" had a chem shot treatment>pretty much a special leave in shampoo and conditioner treatment for her colored hair to revive the color. So that was simple after I read the directions in a minute. The KitKat bar lady was a little more complicated. She had beautiful curly hair. I did a reatouch on her and attempted to cut her locks. I did not know to retouch just the front part of the head and ended up doing a little extra service by retouching her whole head. She told me she had "rebellious hair" that would not take the color. She would tell me to put more product if I did not want the teacher to do it for me. She was so cute and right. But I did not get upset when the teacher helped because that's why they are there. I am there to learn. The hair cut was shorter than she was expecting, and a classmate encouraged me to get the teacher and she ended up fixing the ladies hair and finishing the 2nd half of the cut. I just shed a few tears for a moment of to the side. I did not realize how long I would spend with the client. It took almost 5 hours including the teacher helping otherwise it would have been longer. Now I know why the last semester cosmetology students would be eating lunch while there clients hair were processing>they would not have time to eat if they were going to cut their clients hair too. I am also in the Cosmetology Club again this semester and I am excited to be my class representative. I will try my best to attend all the events this year. One event that I am especially excited about is LOCKS of LOVE, an organization that people donate their hair that is turned into wigs for cancer patients. I plan to donate some of my hair if the length is long enough. I am willing to sacrifice a little of my "beauty" to allow someone else to have a piece of my love to be beautiful. If I have to wear my hair short then I am willing to make that sacrifice for a little while. I will keep everyone updated. Let me know if you ever want to come in for a service, but maybe not haircuts yet, unless you really don't care if a disaster happens.
Thanks for your time! Janellsc
