HOUSTON — Groveton Cosmetology students Madison Nash and Hailey Bergman traveled to Houston on June 14 with instructor Victoria Robertson and successfully passed their final examination for their cosmetology license.

Groveton ISD now has produced two more licensed cosmetologists through their program, and the students now can get a job in the beauty industry with zero debt.
Normally, licenses can cost between $15,000-$25,000 for those going through cosmetology school after graduating high school.

Robertson said these young ladies took advantage while attending High school and put in the 1,000 hours necessary to become eligible to test for the state board examinations.

Robertson said she will miss these two, but she is so proud and can’t wait to see where this license takes them
