Growing up, I always thought I would be in the medical field. I have always loved to help people and improve the lives of others. What I did not understand is that you don't have to be in a medical career to be able to help others. I went through three years of college and came to realize that the medical field was not for me. I had a long year off trying to figure out who I was and what would make me happy. I had lots of conversations, tears, fears, smiles, and thoughts. My biggest fear was letting down my family by not finishing college. I ended up applying for hair school to see if it was for me and sure enough, it was everything, and more. Sometimes it takes doing something you don't like to realize what will make you happy in the end. I have had many ups and downs to get to where I am today, but if I could do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing.
