HUGE news! Last night I completed my 1,500 hours at Pivot Point International Academy and am now a BEAUTY SCHOOL GRADUATE! WOOWOO!
Across the globe, beauty is defined differently by various cultures. How beauty is taught in international cosmetology schools is very different as well! We talk to Rosemary Costa, Pivot Point International Academy salon essentials division manager for Trinidad and Tobago, about what it?s like to be a beauty school student in the southern Caribbean.
Pivot Point International and its three Chicago-area academies are on the lookout for new, creative talent to begin cosmetology classes in February, March or April 2011.
I just got wind of Pivot Point International's new Electrical Styling Tool Kit for cos students—and it is very cool! Not only does the styling and maintenance kit contain all of the essential "tools of the trade" for cosmetologists, but it also gives detailed care and maintenance information to help educators develop the best practices for tool care among their students.
In phase three of beauty school, Pivot Point has students participate in a photo shoot--conceptualizing a "story," developing hair, make-up and wardrobe, and then executing the looks to be photographed for our portfolios.
Meet Lindsey Venable—a cosmetology student at suburban-Chicago's Pivot Point International. Throughout her Beacon experience in Las Vegas, Lindsey will be blogging about her trip!
