  • State Board Part 2

    Hey Guys! How have you been? I hope you’ve been doing well. So, as promised this is my update about my State Board Practical. I actually went to take it yesterday and it wasn’t too bad. I was really nervous going there. I felt like I was about to go and perform in front of 100’s of people (which I’ve done before lol). I had that familiar feeling of nerves, mostly because I had no idea what to expect. Plus it was pouring out and I was not trying to get soaked before going inside where they were probably going to be blasting the air conditioner. Other than it raining,…

  • Test Taking

    Hey Guys! I know I’m updating late but it’s with good reason. I’ve been studying like mad for the Cosmetology State Board Written Exam. I was trying to get everything in my brain so that I would be prepared for the test. Looking back it probably wasn’t a good idea to try and cram everything a week before the test but somehow I did it. Preparation for the test was very stressful. Imagine trying to study 6-7 months worth of stuff in one week. It’s practically impossible so I focused on the things I ha no remembrance of. I studied skin and nails and went over the basics for everything…

  • 1000 Hours of Happiness

    Hey Guys! I know it’s been a while since I last updated. I’ve been busy graduating-Lol. I finally finished Cosmetology School! I officially clocked out with 1000 hours last week, May 22 and it felt so good. It was such a relief. Half of me said “Thank God I don’t have to deal with this anymore,” and the other half said, “Aww I’m kind of going to miss it.” I’m just happy I graduated. I’m on my way to becoming a Licensed Cosmetologist and a great future. I won’t lie to you. School had lots of drama- stuff I’m so glad I don’t have to deal with anymore but it…

  • Passionate

    Hey Guys! I hope you’re doing well. It feels good to finally be able to sit down and write for my blog. I haven’t been able to do so for a while but I’m filled with ideas for my next few updates so I’m looking forward to it. Guess what?! I graduate in approximately three weeks from school. It’s really amazing how far I’ve come. I never thought it would come this fast and now I’m counting down the days and slowly but surely, I’m getting there. Graduation means that we are also starting to prepare for our State board test. On the State Board test, they require a lot…

  • The End of a New Beginning

    Hey Guys! I know it’s been a really long time since I last updated. Everything has been so crazy and every time I sat down to write, I was interrupted, and I never got to finish. I know I’ve been MIA but I’m here to bring you an update to the Cosmetology Life. As my end date of Cosmetology School approaches, I just want to say how grateful I am to all of you who have read my blog. You have followed me along an incredible journey and I’m truly grateful that I could share this experience with you. I hope that you enjoyed the trip! Not only have I…

  • Faith

    Hey Guys. I know it’s unusual for an update on Friday but I’ve got a lot I actually want to write about. I’ve been debating whether or not to write about this because it’s a little personal to me but I figured that maybe I could be helping someone who may be going through something similar to me. So, this week has been a little rough for me. With college decisions rolling through, there’s been a lot anxiety this week but nothing ever happens the way we expect it to. In one of my earlier posts, I mentioned that I was waiting on some responses from the rest of my…

  • The Price of Patience

    Hey Everyone! I hope you’re doing well. For some reason, I feel like life has been a little crazy lately. There’s so much to do and not enough time, but don’t we all feel like that at some point? If I could pull an all-nighter and get rid of everything that is currently stressing me out, I would, but I can’t. Some of it is out of my control. For example, I applied to College earlier this year. That is where I’ll be going once I finish Cosmetology school, Lords Will, and the one school that I really, really, want to go to hasn’t gotten back to me yet. I…

  • Resting Point

    Hey Guys! I hope that you’ve been doing well. I know I missed last weeks update but I promise I had a valid reason. All of last week, I was just trying to find something to write about for you guys. Something that peek your interest but my creativity wheels were gone. I didn’t want to write something boring because I know how much this means to me and how much it means to all of you so I know I have to do it when I can do it to the best of my ability. I’ve been having a bit of writers block lately. I know that seems weird…

  • Big Oppertunities

    Hey Guys! Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. I have a lot to share with you this week. First, let me say that it’s only Monday and it’s been crazy. This week is off to a bit of a rough start so for those of you feeling this way too, take a deep breath, release, and remember that tomorrow is a new day. If it doesn’t work- try again. Clear your mind and remember that it’s only Monday, you still have a few more days to brighten everything up. I know it’s hard to let go of the stress but if we don’t, it only gets worse, so even…

  • New Experiences

    Hey Guys! Sorry, I couldn’t update on my regular schedule but I’m here so keep reading! My last week of cutting was really fun. I really do love it but I absolutely butchered my finger on Friday. I got on cut on Wednesday and then I got two more, on the same finger, the next day. Remember when I was talking about badly you bleed with tiny cuts? Yeah, imagine three of them. Three cuts on one finger were not fun and it hurt like nobody’s business. Thank God, I’m all healed now but I just got another one so it’s the story of my life now. I truly have…
