Giving Back with Style!
Senior cosmetology student Emma Marion of Haverhill recently gave client Katie a fresh wash, cut, and style — after Katie donated her 10-inch braid to support individuals experiencing hair loss. Acts of kindness like this reflect the heart of our Cosmetology program, where students not only master their craft but also make a positive impact.
