Excited, you could say that!

Today I am finally starting my assisting job at a salon downtown. I am incredibly excited. I have worked so hard over the past three years to get to this point! Between 2 different schools, moving twice, and having a baby this wasn't an easy road for me. Cosmetology school wasn't incredibly accademically challenging by any means, but completing 2,000 hours while raising three children often felt like an uphill marathon. This is something I have wanted to do since I was 15 and I am really proud of myself that I stuck to it. It was definitely a sacrifice for our whole family and I am so grateful to have a husband who backed me up 100%.

I am so grateful for this amazing opportunity. I will be assisting the owner of a salon in downtown Salt Lake. I can't wait for the opportunity to continue my education and learn more! This is the perfect fit for me, the schedule is very flexible and I will only be working a few hours a week.

Being a stay-at-home mom is my number one priority, but I am grateful I have the opportunity to balance life at home and a profession I LOVE!!!

Taylor Andrews Hair Academy 2010 Hair Show...

This past May I had the privilege of being apart of the Taylor Andrews Annual Hair & Fashion Show. This was such a fun experience. I never realized before doing this how much work goes into a show like this. My group was responsible for putting together one of many segments for the show. Our theme for our segment was Jungle Book. This was such a fun theme to have and gave us so many options to get our creative juices flowing! Putting together a hair piece was quiet tricky since this was something most of us had never done before. After ENDLESS hours of work and LOTS of trial and error things really came together! I was able to work one on one with the amazing dancers from Center Stage Dance Studio in Orem, Utah. These girls were so enthusiastic and FUN to work with. The dance number that they put together for our segment was AMAZING! The very best part of this whole show was that all proceeds from the ticket sales went to the local Battered Women's Shelter, I love doing things for an amazing cause!
