After spending ten years working in retail, I was finally able to pursue my dream of attending cosmetology school. Once I began researching programs in Central Ohio, the Salon Institute quickly became my top choice because of their curriculum and the opportunity to study abroad. I absolutely fell in love with the school the moment I toured it. I enrolled in the 1,500-hour program and am now licensed in hair, skin, and nails.
My experience at the Salon Institute was incredible—I learned so much during my time there. I even had the opportunity to travel to NYC to train under experienced professionals and attend a class at Makeup Forever’s Pro Academy.
While in school, I built a clientele and decided to go out on my own once I graduated and became licensed. Since then, I’ve worked in two salons. In the second, I started out renting a room and eventually became the owner. Since taking ownership, I’ve been able to renovate the space and create an inviting, relaxing environment for both clients and tenants. Today, I’m proud to have wonderful tenants, an incredible clientele, and a beautiful salon.
I couldn’t have accomplished any of this without the support of Brittanie and the incredible instructors I had during my time at the Salon Institute. Whenever I meet someone interested in cosmetology, I always recommend checking out the Salon Institute here in Columbus, OH.
