A Mr. in Cosmetology? What the heck do you do?
As a condition of employment, I get to do it all: though I'm primarily a hairstylist, I will also find myself fulfilling the role of manicurist and pedicurist, esthetician and makeup artist (gave a lady a makeover just yesterday, in fact). Obviously, it is a field that has been very good to me. It's what I trained for back in High School, it's what helped pay my way through college, and it's what I fell back on when the IT field went bust a few years back (my degree is in Computer Science).
I've always prided myself on the fact that I can take a Plain Jane, and transform her into something stunning, or take a Joe Everyman, and transform him into God's gift to women. You'd be surprised what a day at the salon can do for someone's self-image! It's always great to run into someone like that and see the changes that come about from a total makeover!
As for my particular tools of the trade, I can't go into that (trade secret, dontcha know?), but be assured that I tend to use the best tools available to me; you get your money's worth and then some! As Continuing Education is mandatory in my field, I'm always on top of new trends and techniques in the field. In all modesty, I believe I'd be an asset to any salon in the Tulsa area!
In the event that I return to Tulsa, it will probably be within the next 2 years. A number of things on my personal agenda here in Biloxi that I'd have to fulfil before I leave,
some things of a personal nature, some of a professional nature. But it's something to shoot for!
