Academy News | Cosmetology School Overland ParkBeyond The Chair With Avrie

Get to know Avrie Gaupp, a student in the Designer I Phase at our Overland Park location!

Why did you choose to attend Z Hair Academy?

I chose to attend Z Hair Academy because I wanted a career that allowed me to be expressive, and I wanted a school that would help me grow in the field and personally. On the tour, I knew Z Hair Academy was where I was gonna go.

What is your favorite thing about attending Z Hair Academy?

Being a student at Z Hair Academy has already provided me with an abundance of learning opportunities. This October, I went to Atlanta to shadow Candy Shaw in her salon. I learned a lot of new things just from watching, and I can’t wait to use more of them. In Atlanta, I found more inspiration to be the stylist I want to be.

What is your favorite cosmetological service or skill? Why?

My favorite services to perform are color services. I love it when my clients want a big change and they’re truly ready to love and embrace it. I hope to work with more fashion colors, but my favorite technique at the moment is Balayage!!!

What is your favorite hair product? Why?

My favorite hair product had to be the DetailZ dry texturing spray. I rave over this product to all my clients. This multi-benefit product gives: volume, texture, and more while not leaving your hair crunchy.

What are your plans after graduation?

After graduation, I’m thinking that I want to do an apprenticeship so that I can learn even more. I want to be really good at what I do and I think taking more time to learn and grow will be beneficial. It’s also a goal that shortly after graduation I will be moving out of the state to work and live somewhere different.

What are your passions outside of cosmetology?

When I’m not at Z, you can find me working. School and work take up the majority of my time, but if I do catch a relaxed day, I’m usually spending it with friends or family. I also enjoy photography, so that is a hobby I like to pick back up in my spare time.

I’m very passionate about getting the chance to experience and dive deep into different cultures. Traveling is something I really want to do more of. I think it is rather cool that you can go to these different places and learn so much.
