Expectations:

Be on time! In order to work productively we need all the time we have allotted. Our class consist of hands-on procedure work and we need to be able to move a manageable pace.

Be ready to work! Student must be willing to participate and practice all procedures being learned. [ex. waxing, manicures, facials, shampooing hair are hands on and will be worked on students themselves]. Being attentive is imperative to achieve the hands-on procedures taught. Student will be working individually and/or partnering on these tasks.

Smile, laugh and have a positive attitude! “Success is most often achieved by those who don’t know that failure is inevitable.” Coco Chanel
