(more…)Before attending Iowa School of Beauty, I was choosing between ISB and another local cosmetology school. I had heard amazing things about both schools. When I visited ISB, I felt right at home. Everyone was so comforting and welcoming, and I knew this was the place to start my adventure and future career.
Prior to attending ISB, my daughter Kamrie and I were running in-home daycares, which has its challenges. My other daughter Mia was fresh out of high school with a passion for beauty and makeup. She was too shy to adventure this path on her own, so she convinced all three of us to enroll at ISB! At first, I felt a little out of place as a non-traditional student, but before I knew it, I was just one of the girls. The experience is one I will cherish forever with many fond memories. We have now opened a small family-owned business in downtown Des Moines featuring skincare and hair. I would encourage everyone to attend ISB! It was one of the greatest groups of people I’ve ever met. From the instructors to the director and ladies in financial aid, I have had an experience there that is dear to my heart.
