Modern Salon - November 2008 - (Page 22)

NOTEBOOK McCormick Place March 28 - 30, 2009 | CHICAGO Stunning Stars Stellar Style Sizzling City Personalized Education s a beauty professional, you have many different options for continuing education. Manufacturer classes, trade shows, and even online education (visit our own www.modernsalonlearning.com to learn more) are just a few of the choices available. Recently, I was invited to attend a local salon’s day of education and was very impressed by what I observed. For the past 10 years, Chicago’s Salon Buzz has been growing its reputation along with its clientele and staff in an A area full of top-notch competitors. But owners Andreas Zafiriadis and wife Ioanna Zacharopoulou are not resting on their laurels. As they celebrate their 10th anniversary of the salon, they are determined to take their staff to the next level with continuing education. The event I attended was a one-day seminar conducted by Geno Stampora. He motivated the staff with inspirational anecdotes and also gave them solid information to take back to the salon. Events like this go a long way in creating excitement in the work place. When was the last time your salon enjoyed a day of education created just for you and your staff? EDUCATOR EXTRAORDINAIRE “To always be learning is to always be improving. Research your options for learning and get started now.” This month, we’re thrilled to be featuring the work of Beth Minardi, one of our industry’s leading educators. Not only does Beth offer advanced color classes and special one-onone sessions, she and Carmine, her husband and co-owner of Minardi Salon, also teach an annual “Beauty Focus,” which features education on business and technical cuts and color (check out minardieducation.com for more information). In the beginning of my career at MODERN SALON, I had the pleasure of doing photo shoots with the Minardi team on a regular basis. Beth’s enthusiasm for color and for educating nearly drove me into a career as a colorist! Over the years, Beth’s enthusiasm has not waned. She continues to pursue new color lines and learn new techniques, making her one of our industry’s most talented colorists. To always be learning is to always be improving. Research your options for learning and get started now. Whether it’s online education, an in-salon seminar, a class at a show or even reading a trade magazine, advanced education will help you advance your career.
