I thought I would start writing blogs on what I am wanting to do with my life, how I will get there and all the little issues along the way.
I have ALWAYS always always always loved hair, makeup, beauty etc.
I want to make myself and others feel beautiful.
I have always been so self conscious with every part of myself but I am hoping that my little journey to become a qualified beauty therapist, and eventually *hoping* a makeup artist I will be more confident and accepting of myself.
A couple of years ago I enrolled in Beauty Therapy but did not qualify because I didn't do science in my 6th form year at school, soo....I settled for hairdressing. I was not happy grrrr, starting from the whopping student loan, and knowing that hairdressers don't make a lot of money I started going to the classes. I flew through all of the theory and was looking forward to getting into the practical work. I absolutely hated hairdressing, I felt as though I was working below my level and that I was settling on a career that I will never enjoy.
So I made the big decision to drop out. One minute a full time student, the next minute working part time as a waitress.
I felt a huge weight lifted on my shoulders :) I do not encourage anyone to just drop out of their course or studies if it gets a bit hard. I just knew I was making the right decision for me.
After I dropped out I decided to spend awile getting some work experience in the hope that something might pop up, or catch my eye involving studies.
I started working in a department store and loved the idea of one day working in the cosmetics department.
I cant even explain the feeling i get surrounded by so many products :) lipstick...peeeerfume....makeup brushes.
I knew makeup was one day going to be my passion.
Last week I enrolled in Beauty Therapy again! I will probably get a reply sometime soon saying If I get in or not.
If i do then GREAT, If not then I will just have to do a short course in massage so I can then do beauty therapy the following year.
Anyway fingers crossed that I get in straight away :)
I am so excited that I am finally on the way to pursuing my dream.
The person who really pushed me to go for it is Kandee Johnson, shes on youtube lol and her blog is on www.kandeeland.com and is an amazing makeup artist.
She has the best advice not only about the best products and tips, but advice on life and happy little messages to make your day.
Anyway I will blog next when I get my results.
Have a suuuuper day :)
