Body art kids’ style
|
By STEPHANIE SPENCER
Too young for a tattoo, but want to use your body as a canvas?
Youngsters of all ages line up at the kids activity tent to have
their faces painted by students from Kirtland’s renowned
cosmetology program.
It’s free, and it’s a great way to get into the spirit of the
season. Spring and summer themes with flowers, butterflies and
balloons are among the most popular designs.
A poster board will be on display showing the paintings that are
offered.
And everyone gets something out of it. Kids can wear their
personalities on their cheeks for a day, and the cosmetology
students get a chance to promote their program and log some hours
toward their certificates.
“We are giving back to the community with our services,” said Mary
Scott-Rom, a cosmetology instructor, “and my students have fun
doing this.”
And for those brave souls who want a tattoo. They’re available.
Anyone can get into the spirit of the event with a Kirtland’s
warbler tattooed on their faces or arms. They’re temporary, of
course. |
