Hour reduction
 

A reduction would be great! I currently don’t get enough practice on live guests therefore the sooner I am out of school the sooner I can get real experiences. With hard work and dedication from students the reduced curriculum would not  be a problem. I am over 1000 hours and wish I would have graduated at 1000 hours. Also, I would have LOVED to learn more about skin and nails. The school is not offering skin services therefore I can not get the practice I would have liked. I feel that the changes would be great even though they will not affect me, but they will be appreciated by future professionals.
