Kyleen Carlson Scholarship
The beauty and cosmetology industries offer many career opportunities that allow workers to build robust professional lives.
Cosmetologists get to use their talent and creativity when working with clients, helping others find confidence in their appearances and their health. While the industry is a great choice for interested professionals, young people often aren’t encouraged to consider cosmetology.
This scholarship aims to support students who are pursuing careers in cosmetology so they can enroll in the programs of their dreams.
Any high school graduate who will be starting or returning to cosmetology school in Arizona or Washington may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have a picture on their profile.
To apply, tell us why you are pursuing cosmetology.
