Education During Covid19
Posted by Desiree Carrigan on
So I actually have no idea how long I haven't worked for now... Each day is flying by, as I have done so much..
Thoughts on nail training, I know I teach nails myself, but I also do a lot of training working on bettering my skills for me to pass onto my students. I am now onto my 9th nail art course, some have been free and some have had a very small fee. Most have been pretty good, Ive always been a bit unsure of online training but really this is what has kept me going throughout this time and I've actually learned a few new techniques, that I can incorporate into my own techniques. So if you haven't already I would defo look into theses, even the free ones. A lot of the Brillbird Educators have courses on for small fee.
Other training I actually signed up to a make up group which provides courses so I have been working on my make up skills also, and seem to have managed to master liner which is a big Win for me lol ..
Business side Im still working through a work shop with a company called Salonology who have been fantastic so if you haven't joined their free groups you really should, so much information and its all fellow salon owners. I've created my goals for the next year and have found myself an accountability partner who is a fellow salon owner so this is really good for both of us, having someone to keep you going especially on those down days.
How is everyone doing getting organised for the salons re-opening? I have been lucky I have a few fellow salon owners who I have been talking with, I have a few things already in place in my salon, not everything, as we are still waiting to hear exactly what we are needing in place. At the moment I am trying to work on my Risk Assessments, not doing that great but hopefully fingers crossed I get there.
Anyway if there is any salon owners/nail techs etc out there who maybe needs an ear, or someone to chat with feel free to email me on brillbirdglasgow@gmail.com, I'm happy to help if need be and if I can. Its always nice to have someone who is in the same situation as yourself to talk with.
Have a great week
Love Desiree xoxo stay safe
