a licensed professional

It's official - I passed my cosmetology state board exams!! I'm now qualified to be a licensed professional!

Thanks all for your love, encouragement, help and support on my journey - especially the staff of PMTS Woodbridge and most especially the fabulous Miss Dawn - I could not have reached this achievement without you guys! Hugs!

practice makes perfect

 

Today is going to require a lot of tea... My practical boards are tomorrow. Yikes! The only way to keep the nerves at bay is to practice. Umm... I wonder how many times I can run through the test today?

my practical test proctor

I have the best sister in the world, it's true. Not only has she spent her day being my state board test proctor (so I can practice), she is washing my cholesterol coated doll heads (truly horrific smelly stuff used to mock hair color for the test) . If that isn't love I don't know what is!

written exam - done!

Thanks all for the prayers and good wishes this morning! Glad that is done - now to wait for the results and prep for the practical boards, which I take on Monday! In the meantime I'm going to enjoy my post-test treat of mason jar flowers from Whole Foods...

Ginger's Gala Hairdo

Costume College: Inspired by a photo from the early 1920s, I styled Ginger of A Scene in the Past's hair on Gala night at Costume College to compliment her Lanvin Robe de Style inspired gown. She created & hand beaded her gown and bought vintage hair combs to accent her hair - doesn't she look amazing?! .
