+Holley Rojek update: have been binge watching your nursing videos the whole weekend 🙈 also, video request - would you consider doing a nursing clinicals/school hair and makeup "tutorial"? Not so much a tutorial but more so guidelines on how to look cute while still looking professional and following hospital guidelines - I know that when we went through training, at least in the hospital I did my CNA clinicals at, we had to have our hair back, we couldn't wear distracting/over the top makeup, and we couldn't have long or painted nails - and my aesthetic otherwise is long, straightened hair, acrylic nails and a decent amount of liner and mascara, so I had a hard time working around those guidelines and still feeling cute
