Page 8 The Behrend Beacon Add a little rage to your life by Christine Kleck advertising manager The spring season is such an eventful time of year, full of changes and new beginnings. This is no exception for the average college student. Springtime means formals, in terviews, spring break and graduation. For all of these events, a certain professional, yet stylish and fun look is a student's best bet. While the right look is a must for these springtime events, so is the right amount of time and money to spend on these ne cessities. With several student patrons and employees and an emphasis on staff members continuously updating their knowledge of the cosmetology world, its no wonder that The Rage Hair and Nail Studio (for merly The Hair and Nail Rage) is a great place to help you pre pare for the events of the spring semester. Salon owner and proprietor Diane Strobel believes that the salon's constant updating is its biggest asset. "We're a pro gressive salon - we're up on the latest trends," she said. This Rusk styling product and design educator travels to style shows to constantly learn about and teach new methods of the world of cosmetology.

As for the working environ ment, Cavicchio couldn't be happier. "They work around my school ~ '. schedule, and encourage edu cation in and out of the salon," she said. "Our new color line is probably the best that I have worked with - they (hair color ings) are just better for the hair. Having been involved in cosmetology since I was 1 3, I haven't seen anything like it," Cavicchio said. Karl Benacci, Features Editor Cavicchio knows that a pro fessional, classy, yet stylish ap pearance will make all the dif ference during events that happen for college students in the spring. "The problem is that when we get out of school, we still look like we're in college. If you have a professional cut, style and color, it will really be an advantage to you. The first impression is the most important," she said. When it comes to a va riety of salon services, Rodriquez knows she won't let this spring se mester pass her by with out a trip to The Rage.
