Takahashi, the student who won the grand prize, commented, “During the practice period, things didn’t go as planned, and I worried a lot, and I cut my fingers a lot. On the day, my hands were shaking with nervousness and anxiety, but the model repeatedly told me, ‘It’s okay,’ and I was able to see it through to the end. All of this experience has helped me grow a lot,” and it has become a valuable asset for her future career as a hairdresser. Furthermore, Watanabe placed second nationally (Excellence Award), and Kazamaki placed third nationally (Encouragement Award), winning both the Journal Award and the Award for Excellence, making it a brilliant achievement for all three participants to win awards. This remarkable achievement is the result not only of high technical ability, but also of the teamwork of the students who have honed their skills by supporting each other in daily classes and after-school practice. The contestants’ hard work and challenging attitude have greatly inspired students at the school, helping to increase the motivation of each individual student. Technology wasn’t the only thing developed through the contest. The interpersonal skills gained through challenging yourself and putting in the hard work will be a valuable asset for your future career in the beauty industry. Our school will continue to develop the talent that will brighten the beauty industry of the future through an education that fosters growth in both technical and interpersonal skills.
