Job Talks - Hairstylist - Lina Talks About Running her Salon and Being a Hairdresser

Lina became a hairstylist after attending the Skills Canada competition in Grade 11. She loves every aspect of her job from the styling itself to building a customer base and running a business. Lina says if you’re curious about being a hairdresser, you should hang out a reputable salon for a few days and see what it’s like. Interact with some customers and talk to other stylists. Her advice for people considering this trade is vast so watch her talk to hear more.
