Pak sum Wu

Hi ! My name is Pak Sum and all my friends called me by Pako . I'm a student (master senior) at Aveda institute Jacksonville currently enrolled in cosmetology program for 1500 hours. I was born and raised in Hong Kong . I served in the US military Navy branch from 2011 to 2021. As I got out the navy I choose to follow my passion which is doing hair . I started in Aveda institute since April 2023 and will graduate April 2024 . A lot of people asked me why I choose to do 1500 hours instead of 1200 hours program . And the reason being is that as a male I did not had much opportunity play with heat tools and updos on longer hair like most female did since they were young . I want to be fully prepared and mastered and sharpen my skills before I head out to the work at a salon .
