     Mack Myers, platform artist, barber, cosmetologist, and marine veteran spoke to South Georgia Technical College’s first and third semester Cosmetology classes recently and also provided a demonstration called “Pretty in a Minute.”

    The purpose of the event was to motivate and allow students to know the possibilities of the industry.  He conducted a “Master Styling Class on the Use of Hot Tools.”  “Mr. Myers brought excitement to the students.  He reiterated that the students chose a career that is versatile and that you can create your own atmosphere,” said SGTC Cosmetology Instructor Dorothea Lusane McKenzie.  “He also spoke on the importance of work ethics.”
