A major part of being a hairstylist is making people beautiful. When you make someone feel and look beautiful you're giving them a gift and you're providing a service you can't otherwise put a price on. Just a gentle reminder to be nice and gracious with your guests and do everything you can to be nice and give them a wonderful experience. Far too often do we see stylist who act inappropriate and unprofessional. Lets stop this!
Going to a Paul Mitchell school allows for greater opportunities than you might have been able to achieve in another school. We participate in fashion shows and runway events on a very regular basis and this allows for a heavy growth in skill, client base and in your portfolio. Also our school throws many events for the community and for ourselves. Upcoming at the end of this month (March) we will be throwing a wonderful fashion show/runway event for our school graduation. A handful of students will be styling and prepping models for a runway show to kick off our quad-annual graduation. Our theme will be classic PinUp model styles.
Working in fashion shows and runway events allows for a high degree of improvement in styling skills and garnering experience. Personally i have a high desire to do fashion and print work and doing as many events as you can within the school gives me, and other students, much needed opportunities to grow as a stylist. Do as much as you can while you can and take as much advantage as you can, especially while its free(ish).
