My first week at Ogle came to an end last night, Thursday July 10 at 10 pm. I am happy to report that I made a 100 on my first exam over Trichology and the study of hair. This part is so key when it comes to cosmetology and doing hair. Its the basics and the key to all important things to know and what to look for with each different client. The instructor has taught us how to identify and determine a cause for hair loss and/or thinning. Also, how to identify scalp disorders and their medical terms...itch mites, lice, and ring worms. This is just a few off the top of my head. We studied the formation of hair and a follicle to which the hair grows from. What give the hair nourishment and the different types of hair and how to tell the difference in them, i.e. course, medium or fine hair. This study also includes what makes up the hair fibers and their layers.
Now on to the student life...the students in my class are great! We are still a little timid and shy due to this being so new, but I could definitely see some personalities come out last night during our last night of the week. Everyone is so different and everyone has different weakness and strengths but we are all still there for the SAME reasons and that's cool because we are all willing to help each other out.
Next week we venture into our journey of color! Learning the color wheels and what makes up the colors of the hair when using the perminant and semi-perminent hair colors. I learned a lot from my cousin who has done my hair for some time now, especially how to apply it. Its the mixing of the colors that scares me...but its all a learning experience and I have lots to learn. Hopefully what I learn sticks!!
I have another blog coming under the title...MMA! Its something we learned in an O.P.I. presentation last night about nail salons...even ones in Dallas/Ft. Worth area!
Love - Liz
