Makes me happy to hear the information helped you!!! You are officially licensed 🎊🎉and that’s awesome !! Keep educating yourself keep growing in the industry best of luck 🩷

[@thebeautyfiles4574]

I can’t thank you enough for these videos. I acquired 1600 hours in California, 11 years ago and never pursued my license. Now I’m in TX and I was approved to take the state board but I’m so unprepared because it’s been so long. Watching your videos is bringing it all back to me. ❤

[@GlamAndBeyond]

🙂that’s good yes you got this 💪🏼

[@rockaylamarie5281]

i’m so sorry to bother you but i have a question if you don’t mind, i’m kind of in the same boat as you but it’s asking me my tdlr number and i don’t remember it, how did you remember it/get it?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

@@rockaylamarie5281 you need to contact TDLR directly on the phone and with you Social number they should be able to look you up and give you your permit number, same with psi they should be able to find you with social but you have to call .

[@thebeautyfiles4574]

@@rockaylamarie5281 you’re not bothering me at all. Unfortunately I will be no help. My hours were not from TX they were from CA so I had no number through the TDLR. I would just call the office and push all the buttons until you talk to a real person.

I had to come back to say THANK YOU !! I started with this video and worked my way through the othered in order by section and I passed! When I say these videos were top notch and I highly recommend I don’t say it lightly! I thank you so much for the time and in depth explanation you put into each of these! I PASSED ! Thank you so much you’re such a blessing

[@PITBULLNASKIRT]

You are heaven sent. I graduated from Visible Changes University in 1997. I need to see the whole practical exam in order. Do you have that vid? Also, where can I purchase the whole kit? Thanks❤️

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Hi, yes all of the video are in the Cosmetology playlist that can help you prepare just scroll towards the bottom of the list it’s a total of 5 tx practical videos and they are in order , also click the link for the PSI bulletin it’s also in description of almost every video the practical section info starts on page 15 … as far as the kit I’m not too sure you can probably find one online just be sure it’s packed for “Texas cosmo practical” or call local schools in your area ask if they rent the kit. kzbin.info/aero/PLSENzT-Id8nXC6MGO-TnugCc1-BZeOWZ6&si=b-L1HS0leP0Frbb3 Psi. candidate.psiexams.com/bulletin/display_bulletin.jsp?ro=yes&actionname=83&bulletinid=170&bulletinurl=.pdf

Hey there did you do a lash application bag?

[@lilly2094]

aghhh i passed my written yesterday! practical next, thanks for making updated videos :)

[@GlamAndBeyond]

That’s good news! Practical test will go great also 👍🏼🍀

[@sophiedaniel8209]

In school we were not taught that there is a separate bag for the “chemical prep only;” it went straight into chemical application. Should I also prepare this bag even if we weren’t ever shown?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Remember everyone does things a little different, I chose to do it this way because there is a section alone of chemical preparation and I feel it helps the students remember what they are doing and having only those items in that bag makes it more simple . But yes you can have everything in one bag do what works best for you either way you will be fine as long as you perform the steps required 🍀🍀

[@МиленаСимонян-б6д]

Hello! thank you so mush for your videos! just small question: Does blood exposure kit have to be in the box or it can be in small labeled ziplock bag?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Hi It does not need to be in a box

[@selahgreene786]

Does it have to be white perm rods? Im taking my test soon and I'm so nervous. I have most of my schooling from North Carolina and then moved to Texas to take the practical and written! Thanks to you I passed the written but now I'm nervous about the practical.

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Hi try to relax all will be good ☺️ just be sure your kits has everything you need , no they do not need to be white perm rods, you can use any color towels as well as long as you have what’s needed to demonstrate what’s required you are ok 👍🏼

[@thycvntress]

For the monomer and polymer over tip service do all the products have to be brand new and unopened? (Nail glue, nail oil, monomer, polymer etc.) also thank you for these videos! I take my exam in a couple days and I’m nervous!

[@GlamAndBeyond]

No they do not have to be brand new unopened

[@patientzerosfx2086]

Hi! Do you need a separate hand sanitizer for the monomer and polymer over tip service? My school only recommended the one for pre-exam set up

[@GlamAndBeyond]

It’s up to you I have a separate one for that section inside the monomer bag along with separate disinfectant bottle .

[@AnnetteFlores-f9u]

For the ziplock bags I am using 2.5 gallon, 1 gallon and quart size bags. Quarts size bags are only being used by me for small trash bags within the nail, facial and waxing services. Is this accepted? Also for most of my services bags I used 2.5 gallon bags EXCEPT for nail, blood exposer and perm….I used 1 gallon bags. Is this acceptable? Thanks in advance! ❤

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You can use whichever size bag works for you 😊

[@AnnetteFlores-f9u]

Thank you! 😊

[@xojenisaa]

My bag is 35” x 11” x 18” do you think that would be fine? Or should I just take a suitcase, and I watch your videos for my written & passed the first try! :)

Hello I have a question I took my practical exam via zoom and won’t receive my score for 3-5 day but when I went to the PSI exam website it says pass. Does that mean I passed even though I didn’t get my score yet ? And I would like to thank you for these videos and inspiring all that watch what you create.

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Yes you most definitely Passed Congratulations!!! And thanks for watching and supporting the channel you are officially a Licensed Cosmetologist don’t forget to pay for your license fee if you haven’t already 👏🏼🎉🎊🍾

[@shellyshea8878]

Hey! Here to drop my testimony lol I started cosmetology school here in houston Tx right before Covid & I LITERALLY received zero hands on training with anything other than what I already knew on my own. We received all of our hours without having to actually put in the work once we were cleared to go back after Covid lockdown which was disappointing bc I really wanted that Cosmo school experience & bc of that I got discouraged and was about to give up. So, after I lost my job I started taking steps to study for my written & I passed with an 87% score. Procrastinated on scheduling my PSI bc I was so scared of failing & knew that I didn’t get the proper training that I paid for. I found your videos about 5 days before my PSI last week & i watched your videos everyday & I studied hands on for two days lol I received my scoring today & I passed! 109 out of 119! Thank you so much!! 🥲

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Thats awesome thank you for sharing with us!! Yes it was definitely different times during “that time” but you are licensed and that’s great keep growing remember continuing education is 🔑 good luck to you!! 🎉🎊🩷

[@brianaolvera8318]

Can the curling iron be 1 1/2 inches or is that too big? And what color powder do I have to take for the “ monomer and polymer over tip service “?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

It does not specify in the test, but might be too big in my opinion also may be worth you doing a test curl using what you have and see if the curls stays like required. Our students use white or clear powder .

[@briannaguynes1171]

for the faciel part wjat do use for your jar/ Pump

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You can use actual product of you can use mock product like lotion just be sure to label them for what they should be. Hope that helps

[@savanhaostler5808]

Do you have to put the shears in a container? And can you label directly on the Ziploc with a sharpie?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Do they do not have to be in a container. And I believe yes they don’t mind the writing on the bag as long as it’s clear and readable without extra information on it .

[@bri8718]

I take my test tmrww, y’all wish me luck!

[@GlamAndBeyond]

All will be well 🍀🍀🍀

Hiiii does it matter if the bags are the slider ziplock or non slider ziplocks? Thank you in advance 😭💜

Hi No that does NOT matter everyone packs their kit different.

No necessarily

[@AdelaContreras-m5v]

I’m creating my kit it’s been a while since I went to school and I’m able to take my practical now but I was told by someone that Texas no longer is doing the eye brow wax service? Is this true or should I still do a bag for that section?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

I think they probably meant the “eyelash strip application “ that was taken off two years ago.. wax is still part of the test check out the link with the info : scroll to page 16 candidate.psiexams.com/bulletin/display_bulletin.jsp?ro=yes&actionname=83&bulletinid=170&bulletinurl=.pdf

Okay thank you

[@breaunacarpenter1093]

Does the paper towels need to be in their own separate bag or can we put the paper towels in the same big bag?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

The paper towels that are in the bag are only used at the beginning and at the end and can be used as needed, the bags have two paper towels to disinfect before starting section and to disinfect after . Hope that makes sense, but you can set up whichever way works for you there is no right or wrong way 😊
