Welcome!

It was Princess Night last Friday and it was an awesome event. The line was out the door of Paul Mitchell The School. The little girls had their hair, nails and makeup done for $10.00. For another $3.00 the little princesses could have their picture taken with Cinderella. It was a magical night for many little girls. Some little girls saw Cinderella for the very first time and couldn’t contain their excitement. Cinderella took over 140 pictures with the little princesses and signed autographs for them as well.

Paul Mitchell The School raised over $2,600. All proceeds benefiting: Food 4 Africa, Children’s Miracle Network, Andrew Gomez Dream Foundation, The Larry King Cardiac Foundation, and The Leeza Gibbons Memory Foundation.

Lets Dance!



Welcome Back Everyone!

Every Wednesday and Saturday mornings we have our future professional/staff team meetings called “Pow – Wows”. The meetings first start off by one of the staff members taking attendance. The meeting lasts about 20 – 30 minutes and they are packed full of information about new events, fundraising opportunities, student sponsor programs, school policies and procedures. This past Saturday future professionals and staff members got energized with some Latin dancing. A few of the future professionals and staff members got up to show off their talent as Latin dancers. They danced the Merengue, Salsa and the Cha Cha. It was a fun and terrific way to start off a Saturday morning.



Stay tuned for more exciting activities next week.

Guest Artist

Welcome!

Every Wednesday we have the honor of having a guest artist at our school. The guest artists have been salon owners, makeup specialists, skin care specialists from Dermalogica, and recent graduates just to name a few. This week our guest artist was Learning Leader Lani who showed us creative and artistic ways to design our Paul Mitchell T-shirts.


Plain T-shirts can be rather dull so we spent the morning decorating our shirts. There were four stations set up around the room. Each future professional was given a colored dot on their hand which represented the station you were assigned to. After 30 minutes we rotated stations so we had the opportunity to be at each station. The four stations included cutting, ribbon and jewels, fabric paints and markers, and iron letters or patches.



Many of the future professionals created fantastic t-shirts in just under two hours using everyday items. Along with the fantastic t-shirts, the future professionals made awesome headbands with the scraps that they cut from their t-shirts.

What to do for your hair?

Welcome!

Few people are ever happy with their hair. We all struggle to find the right products that will work with our hair and not against it. No matter what type of hair you have Paul Mitchell has something that will work for you. All of Paul Mitchell products are color coded so if you can’t remember the name at least you might remember what color the top of the bottle is. Orange is for the Color Care line, blue is for Moisture line, green for smoothing line, dark green bottle is for the Tea Tree line and so on.

If your hair is dry and brittle, it lacks moisture. Hair normally has a moisture content of approximately 10%.
If your hair’s moisture content drops below that then you would need to increase the hair’s ability to attract and retain moisture. This is accomplished by using Paul Mitchell’s Moisture and Tea Tree Lavender Mint products. The Moisture line hydrates and revives your hair. The Tea Tree Lavender Mint also hydrates your hair while providing a calming lavender scent.

If you need more fullness and volume, Paul Mitchell’s Extra Body products are for you. These products have thickening conditioning agents that add volume and body while adding shine to your hair.

If your hair is color treated Paul Mitchell’s Color Protect is what you would want to use. One of the main ingredients is sunflower extract which protects the structure of your hair while providing UVA and UVB protection. It also helps your color from fading.
