Amber Lark Memorial Scholarship
WinnerMy name is Kenya Amerson, I’m 17 years old ,and I attend Greene County High School as a Senior. I love to do hair. I been doing hair at my school for different occasions like prom and graduations.
I would love to be one of the winners of this scholarship because I would love to start my own salon to help people who has hair loss due to cancer and alopecia, and to accept younger kids and older adults into my salon.
When I see younger kids and older adults who get turned away because of their age or hair difficulties it makes me want to help them and that is what pushes me to want to start my own salon to help people with that.
In my 4 years of high school I have attended in a cosmetology class that has taught me the different aspects of doing hair and be sanitary in the lab. After I complete my years of the SkillsUSA organization I will have a scholarship for my dream college Shelton State Community College.
Also, My Cosmetology teacher has introduced me to the Bronner Brothers Hair Show in Atlanta,Georgia this year and it gave me an eye opener to see the different things that you can do with hair. While I was there I got to test out different hair products, skin products, and I even met some celebrities.
This year at my school I got to experience to have a day in the life as a makeup artist. I’ve done makeup for the students, teachers and even the principal for prom. The makeup turned out great for every client some even gave me tips.
In the beauty industry I would love to do hair and makeup for women, men and others . I want my salon to be sexuality free so that anyone can come in if it’s men, women and others. I want to learn more about hair and makeup as I continue in my future for my dream salon and career.
As I continue with my hair and makeup career, I feel that I would make a positive impact on the beauty industry and society with a new change to make people feel great with they sit in the chair and feel good about themself when they get out the chair and walk out with pride, happiness, and confidence in my future salon.
