Cosmetology School Journey ~ Day 189, 190, 191 ~ Getting Good Reception ~ 5/7/14
1327 Hours
102 Guests
Monday: I brought my friend that I did the purple haircolor for the rubric test to the school so she could get a facial. I was going to do a few more things for her but my Friday guest needed us to try and get the red out that was showing after we tried to lighten her dark color to a light brown. It was once again a learning experience.
Tuesday: Day 3 of Wigs and Additions. We did some theory review on the history of wigs to start the day. Then after first break we had to do some sort of braid or updo or something related to the chapter. I decided to do some sort of braiding. I got my longer haired manikin from the car and started making a crown braid since I only have a tiny bit of experience with it. But after I got around back to the beginning I still have a long tail of hair that I didn't want leftover so I just started braiding a little lower from the first braid and continued the coil around again. But instead of taking it over her face when I got to the other side I reversed and started braiding lower again and kept going back and forth until I reached the nape and only had the length left to braid and finished that off. Then I brought that up and pinned it in place. Then I was wearing a clip in flower so I used it for the topper.
Here's some pictures from my phone and some newer from my camera.
After lunch we were free to do personal services or manikin work. I decided to try getting as many perm wraps as I could done. So I got Debra set up and sectioned and I did a white rod perm in 40.5 minutes. I set the timer for 40 minutes because that's what was left before break. I was starting the last strand when it buzzed. After break I set her up again and set the timer for 40 minutes to try to beat it. This time I was about 20 seconds faster but just barely past the buzzer. This left me with less than 40 minutes left to remove the rods and try again so I opted for a third using the larger Orchid / Purple rods. And I got it done with plenty of time left. So in the time it used to take me to do 1 perm I did 3. And I wasn't as fatigued as I used to be when timing myself. I was just looking back at my entries from February during the perm chapter and I timed myself with the orchid rods but I don't see a timing for the white rods. But in any case 45 minutes was always the time to beat for the rubric test. Which I ended up doing a spiral perm for anyway. But when i last timed myself at home months ago I had just barely met the 45 minute time so I've managed to get another 4-5 minutes off of it and could probably get a few more. So I had a good day yesterday.
Wednesday / Today: I had my Salon Fair model and another friend scheduled today but both had to postpone so I tried to scramble a bit this morning to get some replacements but ran short of time to make it happen. When I got to school I started trying to clean some of my items and then it was roll call time. I then went to the desk to let them know I had my two cancellations. That's when I noticed Mrs J was trying to help the newer student that just came from Workshop learn the computer and I offered to help out. So I worked the desk with her all day help teach her and learned a few things myself. Acording to the calendar for May I'm not scheduled for desk or dispense so this may have been my last time behind ithe desk. But it was nice being the more senior student this time. It may not have been the day I had made plans for but it was a good addition to the Positive Train and I'll gladly take it. It was a Great Day At Regency with Robert Speaking......
