This year I would love to achieve many more styles and cuts. I have, thus far, enjoyed everything Aveda has. It is really hard to sum it up into words. I’m look forward to getting involved with future events, because my thirst for knowledge grows stronger everyday.

I’m extremely thrilled with my classmates, we are just so eager. I speak for myself probably, but our smiles tell me otherwise. As for me, my biggest goal this year, is GRADUATION. I love the instructors, their passion and skills WILL make me a GREAT cosmetologist, and I’m not just saying that. I mean it. I thank all those that have given me this wonderful opportunity, I will not let you or myself down. Thank you again.

In this up and coming year at Aveda there are many things the I hope to accomplish. First and foremost, I plan to graduate from Aveda in October. But in order to graduate there are many other things I will need to accomplish first. I hope that within the time span of the next year I will be confident in what I am doing, and not just to be confident but to fully comprehend what I am doing.

In the next year I also plan to be fully prepared to take my state boards and pass. I can’t wait to see what the next year has to hold for me and all of my fellow Avedians. 😀

There are many things I hope to accomplish as a student was here. I’m 39 years old, and I never thought I would be back in school. As I said during my interview with admissions, I’ve always loved to play in makeup, dressing up, and playing my hair and my friends . It drove all of my friends crazy.

Now, I feel so lucky to be a student in one of most elite’s Cosmotology School. It’s really a dream. Im so excited and nervous at the same time because this gives me so many options for my future,

I would eventually like to own like a non-stop shop/spa so that when a man/woman or a couple can come in and start with a small wine, cheeses and other things first. Then there will be packages that you can choose from such as hair/nail packages,messages,makeup and makeovers.Lastly, tanning and spray tanning.

This is a HUGE goal I know. I have a long way to go before this spa happens . But i figure i would start in steps.

First, graduate and work in a hopefully higher end salon and learn as much as possible (even if it is kissing but, LOL) this is about my name and life on the line . I have So much to learn and hopefully a lot of time to do so .
