We make people beautiful. The first profession

Difficult sometimes choice of profession, especially is given if there is no childhood dream whom you want to become. Right after leaving school to arrive did not go. Frankly speaking, just was afraid to live alone in the unfamiliar city. As, the dashing nineties, articles in newspapers and transfers added fuel to the fire as it is terrible to live in this world.
So it turned out that year after school the house vein, managed to work the truth as the mail carrier several months. Waited until the cousin graduates from school. And here, in 1993 we with it went to come to Krasnoyarsk. Who made a choice that we will arrive on hairdressers, I do not remember. Most likely not I. Me generally professions choose it.

As now I remember the name of educational institution where came to an interview - technical training college No. 25. Learned there not only on hairdressers, but also on other specialties of consumer services. As I wanted to become the knitter! But understood that in our settlement with such profession you will not live. And here with the hairdresser's profession quite. Running forward I will tell that and it happened, very much I was helped out by ability hairdresser's in hard times.

We with Zhenya handed over documents, answered questions and as training was paid, accepted almost all. At us refused only to one girl with very strong defects of the speech.

The first two months the theory, not really interestingly, but it is necessary. Studied hairdresser's business men's, women's, the history of hairdresser's art, sanitary and hygienic requirements, materials science, flow charts of hairstyles drew, wound koklyushka, spun chignons, learned to hold scissors correctly. Here as on a photo


As we wanted to buy scissors of good firm, apparently, "Jaguar" which brought in group. But they cost 25000 rubles, as much, how many and month of training. I will notice that cost is specified before denomination. So the choice was obvious, used products of "The red metalworker" (for study by the way most that, I and now use similar).

It is a lot of new concepts and words behind which there are actions: tushevka, tapering, smoky transition, tress... Two months later practice in educational hairdressing salon began. For visitors it differed only in low price, and so everything was, as well as in usual hairdressing salons. When there were no clients, learned to do the friend on the friend a hair, a price markup of hair curlers, koklyushka, piles. Training officers directed us and helped. Well also corrected when somebody messes up. It is terrible to cut the first time, you are afraid to spoil a hairstyle to the person. You worry. The woman advanced in years, apparently, was my first client left happy. Since then it is my favourite category of clients. Both painting was done, and a chemical wave.
Were disaccustomed till June, in July passed examinations, most difficult I was given a hairstyle, it is much easier than a hairstyle.
And here, on July 7, 1994 we were handed diplomas of multi-skilled hairdressers.

In our hairdressing salon already waited for me, thanks to the family, agreed. Began to work. Except me, two more was hairdressers. If in city even conditions for holding various procedures were educational hairdressing salon, then in our settlement it was necessary to heat water the boiler, to wash the head over a basin. Until you bring painting or a chemical wave to end, 2 waters you will take out buckets as the discharge was not too. Erased peignoirs and napkins too. Chairs, tables with mirrors remained from Soviet period. Constantly the turn sat, on record then did not work, very much strains when in operating time strangers observe. I think, and to clients it was not especially comfortable. Sometimes talkative clients, sometimes silent came across, but I learned to communicate easy with different people. Many nearly fell asleep in a chair when I cut them, spoke, have a rest at me. did light massage of the head. Served women, men, children. Materials corresponded to time and opportunities of our hairdressing salon. The wave was done by means of "Resident of Angarsk", this good means was, the curl long kept, and "Curl" so-so. Decoloured, highlighting did by Supra, I cannot remember the name of other paints any more.

The most ridiculous, and maybe sad that in three years money I got a job only once, to a holiday, and that nearly with scandal. The manager rested on a difficult financial position. But as clients were counted by ourselves, there was an opportunity to hand over not everything but only a part in cash desk. When colleagues saw how many I handed over for the first month of revenue, softly prompted to me as it is better to do. Otherwise money for work in the form of salary can and be not seen. Still many asked to cut, paint or twist at home, here all earned kept, materials used not from hairdressing salon, and the. Still we had a regional so to say hang-up if in the newspaper it is written that according to the lunar calendar a hairstyle to a disease or still what trouble, do not wait for clients, seldom who will come and if to wealth, happiness or wellbeing, then such stream goes, only manage to cut.
Once us was taken to the city on, now I would call it a master class, in the best salon. There really it was possible to look new in the equipment of a hairstyle, to note to itself. It is a pity that it was only once.

The photo since then too only one made by specially invited photographer, but not behind work on it is visible a part of an interior of hairdressing salon


And yes, ourselves were cut and painted, using official position

It is pleasant to observe how under your hands from hair the accurate hairstyle suitable the woman or the man seldom appears who chose on the picture in the magazine a hairstyle and asked to cut quite so. Most often spoke "well" (man) or "make to me beautifully" (women). Here also you begin to find out how exactly it is necessary to cut? Remembered names of some hairstyles - "Debut", Sessun, "Tennis", "Chord". The men's hairstyle cost 3500 rubles, women's 5000, I remind, the prices of those years I liked to cut women more though I and the multi-skilled hairdresser, the price of it had no impact.
Work exhausted me psychologically, there was a wish to make so that it was pleasant everyone addressed us, worried constantly whether it so made everything. Also legs began to hurt from hours-long standing standing. So I worked the hairdresser only three years, and left, not the last role was played also by the actual lack of salary.
But still, not every day, of course, I continue to do hairstyles addressed me though passed 21 years as left. Perhaps, when I will be bothered by my current work, will complete advanced training courses, and again by my profession will make people beautiful.
