(Jasper, Ga. – April 22, 2015) The prices for going to prom are not cheap, especially when adding in formal clothing, accessories, activities, transportation, and a nice meal. Chattahoochee Technical College Cosmetology Instructor Jeannie Ingram and her students at the school’s Appalachian Campus are wanting to help with one of those expenses. Pickens High School students attending the prom Saturday, May 2, are eligible to make an appointment for a free hair styling for their special night.
“I thought it would be a great way to connect with the high school and potential students while giving back at the same time,” said Ingram. “It’s also a great experience for my current students.”
Those interested in participating should bring a picture of how they would like their hair styled and any makeup they want to have applied. Current trends include loose beach waves and side swept styles, according to Ingram.
Chattahoochee Technical College’s Cosmetology Program is taught at the diploma-level and emphasizes specialized training in theory; safety; sanitation; state laws, rules and regulations; chemistry; anatomy and physiology; skin and nail care; hair coloring; reception; lab and salon management. The curriculum meets licensing requirements of the State of Georgia Board of Cosmetology. After examination and receipt of a Master Cosmetologist license, graduates are employable as cosmetologists, salon owners or managers, estheticians, nail technicians, platform artists or industry sales representatives. Courses are offered Appalachian, Marietta and North Metro Campuses.
“Since receiving my license I have had the opportunity in my career to enjoy everything this license can offer, salon/spa owner, industry rep, test salon for new products and one of the most enjoyable things – an international platform artist,” said Ingram. “I love the career I have, and want nothing more than to share all of my experiences and knowledge with my students.”
Appointments will be available between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. that day at the salon in Building D. For more information or to schedule an appointment e-mail Jeannie.Ingram@ChattahoocheeTech.edu.
