💅Brow Lamination
💅Henna Brows
💅Tooth Gems (the TESTS staff’s personal favourite!)

“I had an amazing time taking this course. Everyone was kind, hilarious, and welcoming. I am so glad I had this opportunity, as I wouldn’t have been able to do something like this back home. I would absolutely participate in a program like this again.” – Kebin Morgan, Metlakatla,

“My time in the program was amazing I would definitely do it again and I was grateful for the amazing experience with all the wonderful people, other than the long early morning drives to get there and the late-night drives back home I loved everything! My mom was one of the main people who inspired me to go to this course I did all my paperwork on my own and now from that I own my business! And I’m planning on keeping a business in this industry, I’m going to be self employed and have my own personal business and for now just work out of home and later I want to open my own salon where I can do all my services” - Hannah Sam, Kitsumkalum,

“I recently started my journey in the beauty industry, focusing on lash and brow services. I created my business to help people feel confident, put together, and naturally beautiful every day. My services include UV lashes, lash lifts and tints, henna brows, brow laminations, and waxing.
Being part of this program has really helped me build confidence in myself and my skills, while also giving me the knowledge to start and grow my own business. It inspired me to take my passion seriously and turn it into something I can share with my community. I’m excited to keep learning, growing, and creating a space where people feel comfortable, confident, and taken care of.” Cameron Dundas, Gitga’at,
