Check out some of the creative color projects the cosmetology students worked on.  Students take all they have learned about color over the past 16-weeks to come up with a finished manikin head.  There are many factors that go into the final grade.  Some scoring guides are that they have to use at least two different techniques (slicing, weaving, hand painting, fading of colors), creativity, incorporating methods for depositing and lightening hair and a finished style.  This is a fun project but also important because it is 25% of their final grade for their Highlighting and corrective color class!

Tell us about yourself.

I’m from Oakfield.  I was home schooled until seventh grade and then went to Oakfield public school.  I love music and would perform at every school singing event.  Spending time with my family and friends is my favorite.  My sisters are my best friends, we do a lot together.   In my spare time I enjoy writing meaningful journal/blogs and photography.

What made you decide to go into the Cosmetology field?

I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do for college, but I’ve always had an interest in beauty and making others feel beautiful.  I like all aspects of hair, nails and makeup.

Why did you choose MPTC?

It is only about 20 minutes away from home.  Also my hairstylist went here in the Cosmetology program and it has good reviews!

What do you love most about the program?

I love learning new techniques and knowledge I didn’t know before this program.

What are your plans after graduation?

I was already offered a job at the salon I go to.  But I do have 10 months to figure it out!
