Kabul Beauty School: Cosmetology

Decent Essays
Kabul Beauty School As a kid you never knew what you wanted to pursue a career in, one minute you wanted to be a doctor the next minute you wanted to be a teacher. Some people now that they are older still don’t know what they want to pursue a career in, I on the other hand have figured out the career path I want to take and that’d be Cosmetology. My nonfiction book I read, was Kabul Beauty School by Debbie Rodriguez, with the help of reading this book I know for a fact now that Cosmetology is what I’d like to do. Cosmetology is something that you may not get right away but if you put effort and time into it you will eventually get it and you can become something greater than you ever expected. Cosmetologists play a big role in this world, …show more content…
My second point about how Deborah Rodriguez was able to become successful and open her own beauty school had inspired me because; it has always been my dream to open my own salon, I hope to one day open my own salon and be successful just like how Deborah Rodriguez opened her own beauty school. To become successful like her and to achieve my dream of having a salon I need to follow through with my goals in life. Because no one but yourself knows what you are capable of doing, and if you believe in yourself and like me think that you one day will be able to own your own salon then you should keep working towards …show more content…
I liked how in the book it was very detailed about her experience and with the details it helped to sometimes make you feel like you were there and experiencing it all with her. I choose this book because I had always loved doing my hair or other people’s hair, ever since I was little I always was painting my nails, wearing makeup, curling my hair and so much more, and once I got older I had realized that it might be something I wanted to do for a career, it wasn’t until I found out my sister’s boyfriends stepmom was a cosmetologist that I really started paying attention to everything that went into being in Cosmetology, I would always hear her talking about how the next day at work she had to do someone’s hair for a wedding or homecoming, or had to do a manicure on someone it wasn’t really until then that it really caught my interest big time, so that’s the main reason as to why I choose this book that way I could get to know more about cosmetology and how someone else got interested and where being in Cosmetology took them in their life. Everyone has a career that is meant for them and Cosmetology is mine. This book really helped me to finalize my decision that Cosmetology is what I for sure want to do. I want to be like every other Cosmetologist and be able to bring out every one of your clients true inner and
