Training as a beautician

Training as a beautician

So you’d like to become a beautician? There is a wide range of courses and schools which can provide training – some better than others.

Unfortunately, anybody can call themselves ‘beautician’, even after a 3-week course. Do you think this person has enough knowledge to give you expert care? … Think how long it takes for anyone to acquire professional skills.

If you’re passionate beauty and health care, and keen to train as a beautician, here are some points to consider:

Know your goals and be clear about them
Be specific about what you want to learn
Understand which skills will be essential
Identify areas where you’d like to gain expertise
Think about where you’d like to work, or if you want your own business.

Finding a school

Ask at quality beauty salons about schools they would recommend. Do they employ graduates?
Is work experience available during the course?
Are there any hidden costs?
Visit those schools personally and see how you feel
Talk to the teachers, and to students.
