Cosmetology School Serves Up Friendship for Krissy

Picking up Krissy Simmons’ story of her days as a student at CHIC University of Cosmetology an Empire School in Portage, Michigan, we meet Nicci, her first beauty school friend. “We were inseparable,” Krissy says, “but she transferred to a different location of CHIC. That was pretty tough on me.”

However, January brought a new group of students, including Holly who, like Krissy, was in her 20s and had been in the work world before entering beauty school. “We hit it off instantly and became fast friends,” Krissy recalls. “We’re very much alike.” It was not instant with Jay. Krissy remembers, “I was intimidated by him, because all of the girls—and even the teachers!—thought Jay was the most amazing-looking guy they’d ever seen. It took a little bit before we started talking, but now we are the best of friends.” Another male student, Shane, was different from the others and kept to himself, so Krissy avoided him at the beginning. Once they struck up a few conversations, however, they discovered they were soul mates. “Shane is probably the best friend I’ve ever had,” Krissy writes now. “He’ll be my maid of honor in my wedding some day, I’m sure :).”

While Krissy says she didn’t go to beauty school to make friends, she’s grateful she has them. “I don’t think I would have made it through the rough patches without those friends,” she says. “I thank God every day for putting them in my path at CHIC.”
