WITC Cosmetology Students Relive Rock and Roll Through Hair

Students Host HairStory Fashion Show

A sold out audience sat back and relaxed as WITC cosmetology students took them on a ride through rock and roll history, all told through hair.

The show covered from 1940-1990.

Inspirations such as David Bowie, Blondie and Elvis were among those used for the catwalk.

This year’s theme gave students a chance to get out of their comfort zone.

“They get to do things that are a little out of the box, not just the normal customer coming in wanting a trim, or a regular old blow dry. They are here to do some fun stuff,” Jean Engebretson, cosmetology instructor.

Family and friends attended the show but it’s also a chance for salon owners and future employers to see the students work.

All proceeds from the show benefit the cosmetology club and scholarship funds.
