2. What Does a Cosmetologist Do?

Cosmetologists provide a wide variety of services. Many of us have used the services of a cosmetologist in one way or the other, whether for a hair cut, manicure, or facial. Hairdressers cut hair, typically for both men and women; however, some may specialize in one or the other. They also provide hair styling services, and are trained colorists. In some shops, your colorist may do just that and not color hair. Barbers specialize in old fashioned men’s hair cuts and typically do not cut women’s hair. They may also provide services including shaves and steam facials for men.

More and more people are taking advantages of the services offered by other cosmetology professionals. The may be getting manicures or pedicures from a nail care technician or pedicurist. Well groomed hands can add to a professional and attractive appearance, while the help of pedicurists may allow you to keep your feet not only prettier, but healthier as well. Estheticians work in both spas and salons. They may do facials, waxing, eyebrow shaping and more. Estheticians are an excellent resource not only in terms of skin care in the salon, but may be able to assist you in product selection for home use as well.

3. Jobs in Cosmetology

There are many job options available in cosmetology, ranging from nail care technicians to hairdressers. Salaries for jobs in cosmetology vary, depending upon your skills, region, and the type of salon in which you work. Whether you train as a nail care technician or a hairdresser, jobs are available even in more rural areas. Many cosmetologists work their way up in the ranks by beginning their careers in major, inexpensive chain salons or manicure and pedicure shops. Eventually, as they gain skills and pursue additional training, they may work in nicer salons

You may work on salary or work for yourself in many spas and salons. Moreover, many of these jobs allow you to work independently by renting space in a salon. This may offer you additional scheduling freedom as well as the ability to earn more for your time. This flexibility may also allow part time working, making training as a hairdresser or nail care technician a smart long term investment. This is a growing industry, with 5.6% more salons than in 1999, 9% more chairs open for hairdressers, and 24% more salon professionals of all sorts. More and more people are taking the time and spending the money for a wide variety of salon services, making jobs in cosmetology accessible for trained and qualified people interested in cosmetology careers.

4. Training to Be a Barber or Hairdresser

If you are interested in training to be a barber or a hairdresser, you will begin looking for the skills you need at one of several educational facilities. Schools offering training for cosmetology licenses of various sorts may use different names, and could be called a beauty school, a cosmetology school, a hair school, or a barber school. Those especially interested in barber skills may wish to attend a special barber’s school; however, some schools that teach hairdressing also teach barbering skills, typically called barber beauty schools.

Hairdressers will learn about hair cutting, styling, the skills required by colorists, and other chemical treatments during their time at beauty school. The number of course hours required will vary depending upon your state’s licensing programs, and possibly the courses you choose to pursue. Courses typically begin fairly frequently, and financial aid is often available, making training to be a hairdresser or cosmetologist quite feasible.

Beauty schools vary, and you may wish to visit several to choose the one right for your future careers as hairdressers or colorists. Some schools offer not only state licensing but additional professional credentials that may be helpful for future jobs in hairdressing.
