Beacon offers an extraordinary opportunity for cosmetology students to gain in-depth knowledge of the industry, as well as to network with and learn from some of the most successful salon/spa owners. At Beacon, students learn valuable insight into what salon owners are looking for in new talent and how to market themselves to potential employers. Beacon is limited to just 100 cosmetology students and is held during PBA Beauty Week.
For 2010, all Beacon entries must be submitted online. Student entries, which must include a professional resume, portfolio of images and professional marketing piece, are judged on creativity, presentation and content. The skills in the entry process help take entrants from student to interviewee to salon professional, even if they are not selected as a Beacon attendee. For information on Beacon and how to enter, please visit probeauty.org/beacon.
