The BHS Cosmetology program welcomed aesthetician Brunette Wildridge, who spent time with seniors working toward their cosmetology licenses. Students learned about the importance of finding their passion within the beauty industry while gaining insight into the business side of building a successful career. Ms. Wildridge also demonstrated specific industry skills, including client intake procedures and the services offered within her profession.
Ms. Wildridge is a former student of BHS Cosmetology instructor Mrs. Lyn Doan and credits Mrs. Doan as an important part of her journey and success in the industry.
We are proud to provide our students with opportunities through our CTE department, to learn from successful professionals and gain real-world insight as they prepare for their futures! 🐾
