Cosmetology
Looking for a new hair stylist/cosmetologist? It’s not just about fancy salons and abundant displays of trendy new products. What you really want is a stylist who loves what they do, is passionate about learning new things, and places client service as their number one priority. But did you know that all starts with a great knowledge base? Good cosmetology training is where you need to start in the hunt for the perfect hair stylist for you. In order to be a cosmetologist you need to complete a formal training from an accredited cosmetology program or an apprenticeship; programs may lead to to a certificate or associate’s degree. A cosmetologist has a pretty difficult job and they need to be hard working, trustworthy, and patient.
Cosmetology requires a lot of hard work. Cosmetologists can be expanded into multiple parts including cutting and chemically treating hair, chemical hair removal without a sharp blade, fashion trends, wigs, nails and skin care, skin and hair analysis; relaxation techniques including head, neck, scalp, hand and feet basic massage and aroma therapies; plus ability to expertly apply makeup applications to cover or promote and can expand into further specialties such as reflexology; theatrical applications; cosmetics and others. A cosmetologist is someone who is an expert in the care of hair and makeup as well as skincare and beauty products. They can also offer other services such as coloring, extensions, perms and straightening. Cosmetologists help their clients improve on or acquire a certain look by applying advanced trending aesthetic applications. This stuff is not easy, therefore cosmetologists need to be hardworking.
There’s actually a right and wrong way to cut and color your hair! If you want a great hairstyle that will make you look and feel beautiful, you want to make sure that the person touching your hair knows exactly what they’re doing. Your stylist may have training and a bit of experience at a school salon, but don’t you deserve more? Find out where they worked as an assistant or apprentice and where they’ve worked as a professional cosmetologist. You want a stylist who has proven to be reliable and trustworthy.
As I said before, cosmetology is not easy and it actually takes quite a bit of time to complete an entire look (depending on what they’re doing). A lot of people get their hair, nails, and makeup done for special occasions, such as prom and weddings. Cosmetologists always want to make sure that their client looks perfect, and making sure everything looks perfect takes time. So, not only the client, but also the cosmetologist needs to be patient in order to get the job done.
As you can see, in order to be a cosmetologist you need to be hardworking, trustworthy and patient.
