Congratulations to @mvtvs_ix for being awarded Plainville’s student of the month!
✨What made you decide cosmetology & go to IIC?
What made me start cosmetology school was I always had a love for hair and different styles. I knew IIC ( International Institute of Cosmetology )was the perfect choice for me the moment I stepped into the school and saw so many friendly faces.
✨My Ah Hah moments in school were (Times you realized this is what you should be doing)?
I realized this is what I should be doing around my junior year of high school when I tried taking forensics and psychology in school and realized how difficult it really was.
✨Where do you see yourself when you finish school?
I see myself going to Florida to do sfx makeup and hair at a school in Fort Lauderdale before finding a place to work.
✨What advice would you give someone looking into Cosmetology school?
The best advice I’d give to people looking at doing cosmetology school is to give it a go! You may not be fast or even good in the beginning but that’s ok, we are here to learn and the teachers are always there to help and support you.
Congratulations to @ashlyntaylor_beauty for being awarded Wethersfield’s student of the month!
✨What made you decide cosmetology & go to IIC?
Cosmetology has always been in the back of my mind as an option for me. When I was a kid I dreamed of being a makeup artist and had a passion for coloring my hair and experimenting with different styles. While in high school, I thought I wanted to go into healthcare and actually ended up working full time as a phlebotomist for 3 years before deciding to go to school and fulfill my childhood dreams. I chose IIC because I had known of a few people who enjoyed their time here.
✨My Ah Hah moments in school were (times you realized this is what you should be doing)?Where do you see yourself when you finish school?
One Ah Hah moment I had was when I did a braided balayage on my clients blonde hair turned chlorine green and was able to completely transform her hair using a technique new to me. Her reaction after seeing the final result was priceless.
✨Where do you see yourself when you finish school?
When I finish school, I plan to be in a salon that will support me and continuing my education.
✨What advice would you give someone looking into Cosmetology school?
Going to school full time, working and trying to balance bills, family, and relationships is SO hard. There have been so many ups and downs throughout this year I’ve been in school but I can say I have not regretted any of it. Show up and do the work and learn as much as you can.
