JERSEY CITY – Beginning next week, Abraham Lincoln High School’s cosmetology program will offer low-cost nail, skin care, and hair care services to members of the community. Each Wednesday and Thursday throughout the school year, from 2:30 to 6:00 p.m., seniors enrolled in the school’s Cosmetology and Barbering Smaller Learning Community will offer a range of services, including hair styling, setting, cutting, hair color and lightening, perms and relaxers. Make-up application, skin care, and nail services will also be available.
The program – which gives students an opportunity to further their education on live clients, and gives cash-strapped members of the community access to personal care services at a discount – gets underway on Wednesday, Oct. 12. Clients will be charged a nominal fee for all services rendered, but a spokeswoman for the Jersey City Public School District said Tuesday she did not know how much the services will cost.
Lincoln High School’s Cosmetology and Barbering Smaller Learning Community, part of the Leola Dixon Clinic, is located at 60 Crescent Ave. in Jersey City.
For an appointment, call (201) 915-6384. Walk-ins are also welcome.
