That's right, I've got about six weeks left of school, and I'm stuck somewhere between super excited and absolutely terrified. I think the last time I felt this crazy was when I was getting ready to graduate college.
I'm trying to get all my ducks lined up for after school, jobwise. So far I've turned in my resume at the salon I'm interning at, and have a 2nd interview lined up for a very nice salon in Dayton, as an assistant.
My biggest dilemma was trying to decide if I wanted to go work in a salon doing hair right out of the gate, or get some more training, work as an assistant, and aquire some more skills. There are pluses and drawbacks to each option.
I've decided the way I want to go is the way of an apprenticeship. I feel there's SO much more for me to learn, and in learning more I'd be gaining in skill as well as confidence, and I feel that for me it's the right thing to be doing after I finish school.
It's difficult when most people get jobs doing hair at salons right off the bat, but for me, I don't think that's the way I'm going to go right away. I know the type of salon I want to work at, and I think in the longrun I'll help both myself and my career in going the apprentice option first.
Getting so close!
