For many students, the journey through education can spark unexpected passions. For Leo, a recent Beauty Therapy student from Coleg Ceredigion, this was certainly the case. 

Reflecting on his journey, Leo shared how one unit in particular inspired him and his future career.

“I didn’t expect to like doing the massage units as much as I did, but as soon as we got stuck in, I just fell in love with the rhythm and making people feel better,” he recalls. “My tutor was also brilliant - she was amazing.”

His enthusiasm for beauty goes beyond the classroom, as he fondly remembers his time at Coleg Ceredigion. “Just go for it,” he advises anyone considering studying beauty therapy. Leo said: “It was the best time - so many laughs, so many great moments shared. The trips, the experiences - you have so much to look forward to. It was one of the best things I ever did.” 

Looking to the future, Leo is excited for what’s to come, he said: “Hopefully, in the near future, I’ll be opening my own beauty room where I’ll continue my education and my training here at Coleg Ceredigion. I’m super excited for the next step in my career.”

His studies on beauty therapy has not only equipped him with technical skills but also inspired a career path he can’t wait to embark on.
