Federico Beauty Institute Brings Together Students and Salons at Symposium Event

Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) November 18, 2009

Federico Beauty Institute held a Salon Symposium event at their Sacramento campus on Thursday, November 5, 2009. The event gave students the chance to meet with stylists from local salons and watch live demonstrations by professionals.

Federico Beauty Institute strives to connect students with the beauty professionals in the area who could someday become co-workers. The students enjoy these professional development events, and the Salon Symposium was a great way to showcase local talent. Three salons participated in the event; Salon B, Rowena and Takashi, and AJF Salon all presented live demonstrations.

Each demonstration lasted between 30 minutes and 1 hour. Rowena, from Rowena and Takashi, showcased a hair presentation from the BIA International Hair and Fashion Expo, in addition to showing the Vidal Sassoon approach to hair. Beela Shaikh, also from Rowena and Takashi, and a Federico graduate, demonstrated runway and high fashion makeup. Avery, from Salon B, demonstrated hair cutting techniques on a Federico student chosen from the audience. Salon B also did a presentation about the salon that was targeted at future employees. AJF Salon's stylist, Caitlin, presented the grand finale demonstration. She demonstrated round brushing techniques, including creating loose, sexy curls with only a round brush and a hair dryer. Students were able to go on stage to participate and ask questions during this demonstration.

The event was a great lead-in to the un-veiling of a new online Salon Network that Federico Beauty Institute launched this week. The Network will allow local salons to connect with students and graduates, as well as post job listings. This online community will become a place where beauty professionals from the Sacramento area can easily connect.
