Jacqueline Bermea

Jacqueline Bermea returned to school to learn more about what she’s genuinely passionate about and gain new experiences in the beauty industry. She describes her time at Milan Institute as a great experience filled with supportive instructors and meaningful connections.

Jacqueline appreciated that each instructor taught her something different and always made time to help, encourage, and keep learning fun. Although she faced multiple obstacles and moments where she felt like giving up, the support of her instructors and family kept her motivated to push through and finish strong.

Today, Jacqueline works at Great Clips in San Antonio, where she continues to grow her skills and gain hands-on experience. One of her favorite memories from Milan was the laughter and relationships she built with classmates and instructors, which made her time in school memorable and enjoyable.

Looking ahead, Jacqueline hopes to grow professionally, open her own suite and business, and eventually become an instructor so she can teach others about the passion she loves.

Her advice to future students is heartfelt and upbeat: “Enjoy the moments, do your work, have fun, and don’t give up—it goes by fast, and it’s worth it.”
