Why Upright Project?

Feeling Blessed in the World of Hair

Every time I’m getting ready for a hair class at the salon or wrapping up an exciting hair show, I take a moment to soak it all in and remind myself just how lucky I am. Have you ever had one of those moments where you just step back and think, “Wow, this is amazing!”? That’s exactly how I feel about being in this incredible industry.

You see, working in the hair industry is like being a part of a vibrant, ever-evolving masterpiece. Picture it like a grand, ever-changing art gallery where each artist brings their own unique style and vision. And guess what? I get to be a part of that gallery every day. Whether it’s setting up for a class where I get to share tips and techniques with other passionate stylists, or it’s being part of a hair show where we all come together to showcase our creativity, it’s all so inspiring.

I often find myself surrounded by some of the most talented and innovative artists in the industry. Imagine being at a concert where you get to see all your favorite musicians perform together—that’s how it feels to work alongside these amazing professionals. Every event and training session is not just a job, but a chance to learn from the best and be part of something bigger than myself.

It’s hard to describe just how fulfilling this career is for me. It’s like finding that perfect puzzle piece that just fits perfectly into place. I look back and realize that so much of my success and growth as a stylist comes from the support and opportunities I’ve received from the staff at Upright Project. They’ve been like the gardeners who help your dreams grow and flourish. Without their belief in me and their commitment to helping me reach my goals, I wouldn’t be where I am today.

Upright Project isn’t just a workplace for me; it’s where my dreams took root and began to grow. It’s where I was given the chance to dream big and set goals for myself. Think of it as a nurturing environment where creativity and ambition are encouraged to bloom. I’m constantly inspired by the people around me and the incredible opportunities we have to push boundaries and explore new ideas.

So, whenever I’m setting up for a class or finishing up a hair show, I take a moment to reflect on how far I’ve come. I think about how lucky I am to be part of this amazing industry and to have had the support of such a fantastic team at Upright Project. It’s a career that has brought me so much joy and fulfillment, and I’m incredibly grateful for every experience that has come my way.

In the end, it’s not just about the hair or the techniques. It’s about the people, the inspiration, and the dreams that have been realized along the way. And for that, I am forever thankful to Upright Project for being the place where my passion was sparked and my goals began to take shape.

Here’s to many more years of creativity, growth, and feeling blessed to be part of this beautiful world of hair!
