Transformation Journey Series Launch

I Started Classes

I just realized how long it has been since I last posted anything. It has been FOREVER! I have just been so busy and with my classes starting, it had completely slipped my mind and I am so sorry x.x

In class we are supposed to work on our professional image and ad cosmetology students, this means we have to wear perfectly applied makeup, perfectly styled hair and well groomed manicured nails so I’m getting a haircut soon and a set of acrylics. I think im good on the makeup though. =)

I have quite a drive to class so I’m going to start a video segment on my YouTube account and I’ll try to post weekly. I already filmed a few times in the car but I couldn’t find a good balance of the air and music for the car ride to it came out cruddy not to mention my phone mount wasn’t tight enough and shook too much while I was filming.

Class so far has been pretty fun. Lots of book work for right now since we are still just starting out a lot of disease control and science right now. We have been working on our heads though. I have given Zoey 2 haircuts and a few styles including French braids and curls. We have even gone a scalp treatment on her and learned about relaxation massages to do while shampooing. XD

We have been taking LOTS of tests so far and I have been doing awesome on all of them I have an A for the class!!! IRSC has this awesome thing called Blackboard. It’s online and there is an app too. I’m in love with it. Our quizzes are on it, pdfs of chapter outlines and up to date grades. Its super helpful for staying on track and I can work on my tests and study anywhere I go by just using my tablet.

Speaking of my tablet, I need a new case. And since I’m replacing my case anyway, I figured I might as well look for a case with an attached keyboard so I can take better notes since my hand writing is chicken scratch.

LIFE UPDATE

My Cosmetology Kit

When I got back home to Chris’s dads, I opened up the box and took out all the pieces that were in there and took inventory. There was A LOT in there. Including three heads. They have really wide eyes and its super creepy and they came with names. There is Zoey with plain longer brown hair, Naomi with an afro, and Tammie who has her hair separated into four sections and each section is a different color for color treatment training. Chris and I hid them around the house to scare his parents. Tammie was in the fridge, Naomi was in their bed and Zoey was in their bathroom. When Kim came home she came in the door and went right to their room to go to sleep and we didn’t hear anything and she hasn’t come out yet so I don’t think we scared her. We got his dad with Tammie though.

There was so much in the kit; my only complaint was the kit was a duffle bag. My friend Milissa had a hard plastic rolling case for hers when she was in school. Mine is too bulky and too easy to be smushed with all my new electricals inside. The kit came with a new hair dryer, a curling iron, a flat iron, a set of electric clippers, a clamp for the heads, a scissor set, a few capes, a bunch of brushes, combs, clips, piks, dying tools and tools for mani and pedi classes.
