Hi, my name is Lynetta Spells and I'm 19 years old seeking a intern position at a hair salon. I went to Wake Tech for one year for graphic and design, but wanted to branch out to something more creative and artistic, and that is with hair. I'm now a Future Professional at Paul Mitchell's Hair School of Raleigh, started in August 2012. To succeed more as a stylist, I want to work at a hair salon as a receptionist or guest associate. I want to do whatever it takes to be a stylist while I'm in school and out of school. I have a lot of experience working with customers, what I enjoy most about retail is customer service. I love interacting and meeting new customer's every day. I have worked in retail for over 4 years and want to hopefully present my skills to clients.

Passion, Knowledge and Trustworthy are my three strongest strengths that I know I can bring into a Salon. If there were one thing that I would make improvement in would be cooperation, I'm very dependent and love to work hard for something by myself; but I have learned throughout the years that team work does make the dream work. Therefore working as a team will make a business run stronger and smother. I thrive in working in a salon that concise of professionalism, employees should all be dressed accordingly, body language tells all and communication skills. Passion and fun is the next step for a working environment I thrive in, I love to see staff members excited about their career.

I expect to gain a lot of knowledge in working at salon, not only with my co-workers but with clients as well. I want to be able to become a full time stylist but I need to learn the basic first, I want to grow from a guest assistant to a stylist and work as a team in the salon and out. I will make a change by my personality and determination. I have a high spirit and I'm always positive, I leave all my problems at the door and look at the positive things in life. Determination throughout the task I have to do every day at work. I want to be able to work as team inside and outside the salon. I am a big fan of community service and would love for my new associates to join as well if I'm applicable.
