Additional Information

I am a mother of two boys. I have been predominantly part-time while they have been very young. Now am available full-time. I was booth rental as it provided the flexibility I needed to continue to stay relevant in techniques and maintain my passion. Throughout my part-time experience I have done weddings predominantly for two years experience the art of special event styling. Prior to Covid I had begun to rebuild a healthy clientele but due to Covid and childcare I lost 30% plus of my clientele as I had to remain home for my children's education from July 20-Feb 21. I am ready to be in a salon team-oriented environment that can provide continuous education. I am interested in management and maintenance of the salon appearance/reputation.
