In today’s society, grace and poise are two things that young ladies are quickly losing. As they grow up in a world centered around social media, they are quickly losing the ability to enjoy a poised conversation, carry themselves in an attractive way, and be attentive to the needs and interests of those around them. This workshop provides the advice today’s young ladies need to grow into polished and poised young adults. Our Professional image staff will join us for a 30-minute presentation on taking care of your skin and natural-looking makeup tips, as well as a 30-minute presentation on the best quick and effortless ways to wear your hair based on your hair’s texture and facial shape.
