I’m in the full specialist program and Ms.A in the esthetics class has inspired me to embrace my love for esthetics more by not forcing me to do things that I’m uncomfortable with doing. I do not enjoy doing facials at all and instead she lets me focus more on other things i want to learn like waxing, brows, and lashes. Update: I made it! I graduate today and since writing this review I have done facials on a friend of mine once a week. I’ve learned about them more by being hands on with it. I decided to try to see if I’d actually enjoy doing it but even though I don’t enjoy it I’m glad I tried and learned from it. I discovered my love for lashes on the way though! Thank you Ms.A for being my teacher!
