Mrs. Sadhana Kadam, Proprietor, Sadhana's Beauty Salon, Old Goa.
Hello friends my name is Sadhana Kadam. I'm residing at Old Goa. I have done Basic Cosmetology course from NSTI(W) Farmagudi- Goa in the year 2018-2019. I had always liking towards becoming a beautician. When my kids were small it was not possible for me to do but as my kids were grown up I started getting some time for myself so I decided to utilise the time for doing something for myself. At the start of 2018 when I came to know that at Farmagudi the first batch of Basic Cosmetology is going to start by central government and decided to enroll my name in it and that's how I started with learning of this course. Vijaya madam was teaching us which helped me to learn better and I passed in the exam with good marks which I'm greatfull for. After the result I have started with salon at Old goa at home to continue with my interest and I'm now earning by myself. I'm thankfull for Vijaya Madam throughout my learning and inspiring me.
Mrs. Kavita Thapa
Basic Cosmetology Instructor, Mamta Education Centre, Nagrota Bagwan
Hello friends,
My name is Kavita Thapa and I currently reside in Dharamshala. I have completed a Basic Cosmetology course from ITI Palampur and further pursued CITS in the same field from NSTI Farmagudi, Goa, during the academic year 2022–23.
Becoming a beautician has always been my dream. However, due to family responsibilities and my children being young, I had to put that dream on hold. As they grew older and more independent, I finally found time for myself and decided to dedicate it towards personal growth.
In early 2020, I took the first step by enrolling in the cosmetology course at ITI Palampur. After successfully completing it, and with the encouragement of my mentor, I applied for the Crafts Instructor Training Scheme (CITS). I was selected and had the opportunity to study at NSTI Farmagudi, Goa.
There, I was fortunate to learn under the guidance of Vijaya Laur Ma’am, whose teaching and support played a vital role in my success. I passed the final examination with good marks, and I remain deeply grateful to her for her mentorship.
After completing the course, I returned to Dharamshala, and I am now proud to be teaching Basic Cosmetology at Mamta Education Centre, Nagrota Bagwan. It brings me immense joy to share my knowledge and inspire others just as I was once inspired.
I extend my heartfelt thanks to Vijaya Ma’am for her constant support and encouragement throughout my journey.
