Future Cosmetologist

Help me give my students a foundation in the beauty industry and build their confidence.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ellington's classroom raised $700

This project is fully funded

My Project

The materials requested for a summer youth camp for future cosmetology students are essential for providing hands-on, practical experience in a creative and engaging environment. Items like mannequin heads, styling tools, and basic skincare products allow students to explore hairstyling, makeup, and skincare techniques safely and effectively. These materials foster confidence, encourage experimentation, and build foundational skills that are crucial in cosmetology. By using professional-grade tools and products, students gain a realistic preview of industry standards, helping them feel more prepared and inspired for future careers in beauty. This will be a blessing to me and the students.
