I know many people who want to go into the beauty industry but most aren’t willing to put in the hard work. The truth is that you need to gain your qualifications and pass exams. It’s not good enough just to enjoy doing your own makeup. You have to learn some pretty complicated procedures that could endanger a person’s health if not performed correctly.  Once you are fully qualified, though, I honestly believe this is one of the best jobs in the world.

As you can probably tell, I’ve worked as a beauty therapist for many years. I’ve seen many young people come in and try to earn a living in this career but give up too quickly. You have to understand so much about the human body, the concept of beauty, and how to run a successful beauty technician business. There are so many skills needed and they don’t come naturally to most people. They have to be learned.

I recommend that you start looking online for beautician courses. First and foremost, you need to start learning the basic skills. Can you answer questions like what is Hyaluron pen treatment and how is it different from botox? This is the kind of technical knowledge that you need to gain. Start reading books on beauty and absorbing as much information as you can. Once you have the knowledge, you can start gaining qualifications and practicing your skills on real people.

It can be useful to go to beauty college but you can also take courses online. Just make sure to check what qualification you’ll receive. Then, you can start applying for entry-level beauty therapy jobs. From there, work your way up to more complicated work.
