The Professional Beauty Association (PBA) announced the winners of its annual Beacon contest for 2009, and 36 of them came from Paul Mitchell Schools!
Beacon is part of PBA Beauty Week, produced by the Professional Beauty Association in cooperation with Cosmoprof North America. Beacon winners receive free tuition to PBA Symposium, held July 18-21, 2009, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Beacon winners sit side by side with famed stylists turned prosperous business owners during general sessions and attend Beacon breakout sessions facilitated by these same salon superstars on topics such as interviewing, career choices, client base, and being part of a team. Beacon accepts just 100 cosmetology students each year.
