So if I come in your salon and whisper the secret pass phrase "R U Nikos Cousin" do I get a free deep conditioning treatment or sumptin', :P congrats and spread the knowledge, girl!

Keen, our school taught us above and beyond what is needed for the exam. The state exam is sooo narrow. I was blessed to have a teacher who taught us the things needed to make it in a salon, plus have regularly scheduled classes on advanced procedures that were taught by high end salon owners in the southern region as well. Even with all of that, it still doesn't take the place of what I've learned right here on LHCF.:yep:

I started off at an all black school and they stated that their mission was exactly what you just stated. :perplexed Thank GOD I transferred!! I graduated from a predominantly white school whose mission was to have us salon ready, not just passing the bare minimum state exam. They are both owned by the same company but the owners put more money into the white schools. :nono:

The bolded is disturbing to me. I think it could change if successful black business owners (high end) would say something to them about it. You're only as good as your training. It's like the average hood high school. :nono: I'm truly glad you brought up this point and congrats and much success!!!!

Congrats!! I wish you so much success!!
Your own beautiful hair is gonna be a great advertisement for your business :D
 
good luck on your stateboards! what book did your school use? Milady? if so, you can study online using Milady online. it will help you so much with your test! did you take your practical at school or do you have to take it somewhere else?
