Shasta School of Cosmetology

 

One of the coolest things we get to do as licensed cosmetologists  is pay it forward. Today I spent the day with students from the Shasta School of Cosmetology. I have to tell you it is not hard to see why this school has one of the highest passing rates in California.

I arrived a little early and was greeted with the what I call the  early birds. They are the students know matter what they are there and enter the class before anybody else. Let it be known that we at become a  cosmetologist encourage this type of behavior.

Note: This type of motivation may lead to a cosmetology license and much success and happiness.

What an amazing group of talented people both the staff and the students. It is truly inspiring to me to stand next to some one and feel the energy of some one who has decided to become a cosmetologist.

Some of these students will stop at nothing to fulfill their dream of becoming a cosmetologist. It truly shows. I witnessed some of the best sets from a second week of cosmetology school that I had ever seen. Good luck to everyone at SSC.

If you are ever in the Redding California area and in need of any salon service think of Shasta School of Cosmetology.
