Choosing a mentor...

So part of the education you receive at Paul Mitchell the School is a process of defining who you are and who & what inspires you. That includes doing research on a person you consider an inspiration, a Mentor. Well, my tentative choice was confirmed by a simple "like" to my comment on Facebook.

I was a giddy school girl when a comment I made to this individual's status update was given a thumbs up by himself!! The fact that he took the time to read comments on his Facebook page, always shows humility & gratitude...

Jason Reyes inspires me. His story is amazing and I can't wait to learn more about his journey to become a national Advanced Academy educator for Paul Mitchell

Good things to be had....

I am really enjoying being in the evening classes at PMTS. I like the schedule better where I it's "all business" (ie: theory, pow-wow, specialty class) on Monday and then Tues - Thurs is all guest services. It seems to be better for my friends who want me to provide their hair services and the it's much less crowded so I feel that I am getting more of my education. I've had some lonely moments because I miss the ladies I used to hang out with in day school - but that's what the Book of Face is for, right?

So this Audrey Hepburn quote struck a chord today because I realize that while I am going into an industry that is based upon vanity, my whole motivation is that I want a job where I can make my guests feel as beautiful on the outside as I know then to be on the inside. For a more personal reason, I like being creative in a medium where I see the instant results of my work. That's always been my frustration with my sewing, it took so darn long to get it to look the way I envisioned it, so I'd get frustrated, but the project away, lose interest and walk away. You simply cannot do that when you have a guest in your chair & I'm perfectly okay with that!

So I am working on my honors cutting & color book. My biggest hangup is I don't have a printer to print out the assignments I'm completing. All in due course, I'm planning to buy one with my income taxes return. 

So soon, I will have March hair specials at my school! Stay tuned!
