Summary
Driven and enthusiastic newly licensed cosmetologist looking to begin my career in a professional salon environment. My cosmetology education has provided me with hands-on experience, and I am excited to continue expanding my knowledge through training and mentorship. I am hardworking, creative, driven, motivated, and dependable professional who is eager to learn, grow my skills, and provide clients with a welcoming and positive salon experience. I am especially interested in cutting (and creative cutting), blonding and fashion color, but I still want to perfect and grow my skills in highlights, balayage, up-dos and hair styling.
