The Humble ISD Cosmetology Program is awesome. Not only does it provide opportunities for the students but the community benefits with inexpensive cosmetology services. How does a $7 ladies haircut sound? Add $2 more for blow dry and style.

The Humble ISD Cosmetology Program helps prepare students for employment right out of high school. The students generally spend three hours a day preparing for a state license, in lieu of taking an elective or P.E. classes. And where certification in Texas normally requires 1500 training hours, the high school students are only required to complete 1000 hours, due to credit being applied for their other academic classes.

The Humble ISD Cosmetology Program is not just fun and games. The students are also educated on bacteria, bones and the skin. And don't forget the chemistry involved in the various hair processing also. To stay in the program, students must maintain a C average in all courses. If they do that, they are eligible for the state examination. And the pass rate for the state exam is 100 percent! Much higher than the 50% average passing rate for post high school students.

The instructors are Marla Ubernosky & Teresa Hand. Ms. Ubernosky has 22 years of teaching experience in Humble. Ms. Hand, a new instructor, is a former Humble ISD Cosmetology Program graduate. These instructors bring enthusiasm and professionalism into the Salon Classroom.

State inspectors come by often to keep standards high at the Humble ISD Cosmetology Program Salon. And the clientele is growing. Senior center residents have come by the busload. Plus the Salon offers Glamour Girl Parties, complete with glamour treatments, karaoke and photos for the younger set. If you're interested in making an appointment, call (281) 641-6535.

The program is part of the vocational classes provided by the Career And Technology Education Center, or CATE. The Humble ISD Cosmetology Program is available to all junior and senior students enrolled in Humble ISD. The course requires three class periods. However, if travel is involved from another campus, arrangements can be made. For any further details on how to enroll in programs at CATE, students should check with their school counselors.

Okay. So if you asked my pets - they would have something to say about the coolness of my home. I do like it cold. But that is what a gaslog is for - keeping the pets warm! Parker, my German Shepherd mix, seems to be pleased about the warmth of the lovely fireplace.

"Susan Brown of Your Texas Connection is my favorite real estate seller. We drove to Kingwood, Atascocita, Spring, The Woodlands and Conroe. And Susan Brown saved the best for last because that is where my new house was waiting! I didn't mind driving around because Susan Brown's car had a movie player and we watched the Hannah Montana Movie. You know, I can sing one of her songs all the way through!"
