My name is Karla and I am currently attending Paul Mitchell the school for cosmetology. I am also a mom to 3 beautiful children. I am pursuing my cosmetology license because my children have autism. I’ve quickly realized they struggle with sensory processing, which means they are sensitive to sounds, lights, large crowds, and touch. Being able to take them to get a haircut has always been out of the question. Not very many salons can offer the accommodations for special needs children. I hope to be able to fill that gap in the beauty industry by opening a salon for children with autism.
