🌸 Bringing Beauty & Confidence to the Pink House

Throughout the year, Central Piedmont’s Cosmetology students visit the Pink House to provide makeup and styling services, helping women feel confident and radiant. In January, students participated in the Get Your Color Back event, where:
🎨 Women received a personalized color analysis
💄 Students applied makeup tailored to their color scheme
📸 Participants had a photoshoot to showcase their new looks!

💖 What’s Next?

Our Cosmetology students are planning more workshops for the amazing women at the Pink House and look forward to continuing their work with Carolina Breast Friends of Charlotte. This is more than just makeup—it’s about lifting each other up and celebrating strength, beauty, and community! 🌟

On Oct. 24, Central Piedmont’s Cosmetology Club (CASA Club) partnered with

Carolina Breast Friends Pink House to provide hair and makeup services for an inspiring cause. The annual Pink Boots Ball celebrates local women who have survived breast cancer and honors those we’ve lost.

Here’s what happened:

  • Hair & Makeup Services: CASA Club had the privilege of helping 20-26 survivors look and feel their best by offering complimentary hair and makeup services for the event.
  • Comfort Bags Donation: The entire Cosmetology Department, including educators and students, came together to create 12 Comfort Bags. These thoughtful bags contain items like:
    • Fleece blankets 🧣
    • Ginger candies & tea 🍬🍵
    • First-aid essentials
    • Puzzle books 🧩
    • And more, all to offer comfort to women undergoing breast cancer treatment.

This partnership with Carolina Breast Friends means the world to the CASA Club, and they’re excited to continue supporting and uplifting the women in our community.
