Bring on my first post...
Hey all!!!
I'm Joana, I am a 19 year old university student studying International Business at Richmond The American University in London. I was born and have lived in London my whole life, and I am the only child to my wonderful Portuguese parents.
So you're probably thinking, "Yhyh, now get to the point where you talk about why you're writing a blog and what for."
Well, being an only child it didn't give me much do to as I had no company, so I'd find alternative things to do and that's when my huge passion for hairstyling began, as well as nail art and crafting, but mostly hairstyling the rest came later on hehe :)
I'd practise my passion on my barbie doll's hair, plaiting and doing all kinds of other styles and occasionally my mum's hair when she was bothered to let me touch it.
When the internet world was introduced to me, it was like paradise. It was like entering a new world! From then on I have been inspired by many google images, various youtubers that still today I watch and am inspired by them. Trying to find people to practise my hobby on was and continues to be a hassle, but I manage to find a head of hair that I can illustrate on what I love and do best.
You may ask, "But why are you starting a blog?"
Here's the answer for that question. For a very long time I've been told by many that I should become a professional hairstylist. But my higher education stands in the way, not that I see it as something negative that stops me, but I just can't do it as a full time thing, that's it really.
So as a 'part-time' thing I have decided to start a blog, as well as a facebook page, pinterest, instagram and a website for those who prefer other social network sites.
By starting this blog I aim to show you a bit of what I can do and hope to inspire you, if this is what you like. :)
I also hope to gain more experience and start some freelance work with clients that wish to use my talents for whatever occasion they may need.
Due to University work occupying majority of my time I'm not yet sure of a schedule for when I will be posting, however I will inform you as soon as I know.
Thank- you for coming by and looking at my blog, hope you enjoy it as much as I am with starting it.
Please share with your friends and family that you think would appreciate and like this sort of thing.
