Last night I was looking around online when I got an idea: What if I found a way to go back to doing hair? Of course the problem is that I've already taken the practical twice and flunked both times,and without a license I can't work in a salon. I'd already checked the schools in the area, and none of them had anything that wasn't full-term schooling for a year. I don't need a year, I just need to know what to do to pass the boards. So last night I decided to check and see if there were any online courses or videos that might help. I found some videos, but I also found a posting on Craig's list for a certified instructor that teaches how to pass the boards. I emailed her and she emailed me back that she'd be happy to give me a call and tell me all about it. I'm waiting for her call.
While I'd miss having a normal weekend, I miss doing hair too. Being an admin is so boring. I miss having clients and great conversations all day. I also miss tips! It was nice to have cash. I'd even consider possibly going back to Hair Club. Insurance, paid vacation, and sick days are nothing to sneeze at. Of course this is all conjecture right now, but I don't seem to be getting anywhere with the admin thing. Four months and I can count the interviews I've had on one hand. If I had my license I could walk up the street and get a job right now, or even work at a chain salon if I was desperate.
I guess we'll see what happens.
