You are such a wise woman! I am starting at 51! But it took me that long to be able to and mentally be ready! I think this is going to be great! Thanks for the refernces to good online people to get information from!
This is my third time going back at 19 years old and I’m confident this time is going to be the LAST time. I don’t know if you believe in God but this might be his purpose for you if it been on your heart that long.
Hi! Glad I found you! I just got with the tour with Aveda and Empire Bloomington today. I like the fact that Empire has a part time course since I am working full time. From this video, I’m hearing you say that it doesn’t matter what school you go to and to just go to a accredited cosmetology program and get your certificate since you will learn the additional stuff outside anyways, right? What are some of the things that you liked and didn’t like about Empire or recommendations??
Hi, congrats on touring schools. So exciting!! I like that empire is very flexible when it comes to your schedule and if you have to miss days you can easily make up hours. It's pretty easy going as long as you're focusing on you and your goals. There is a lot of drama but if you stay away from it, you'll sail right through school. I didn't like how we didn't learn any new outside techniques, but school is just the basics so just do your own learning outside:) Hope this helps!
In light of it being student loan forgiveness have you applied for that or did you have to pay for everything out of pocket. Pell Grant only covers 10,000-maybe 11,000 leaving you on about 13,000 loans. What's supplies do you have to use?? Happy Easter 🌼🐇🥚🌷🐇🐇🌷🌷🥚🥚🐇🌼💯‼️🎉🥇💎🥰📺📽️🐇🌷🐇🥚🥚🐇🌼🐇🙋🏻♀️
Hey, I'm a 20yr old guy and I think I might be interested in cosmetology. Is this a career you would suggest, as far as making a living? I was working in the steel industry and I was having alot of trouble out of the guys that were working there. I'm thinking of working a "regular job", my focus is now towards the quality of life and what makes me happy.. I was happy with where I had worked, but I kept having issues. I'm trying to be honest with myself, I can honestly see myself painting women's nails or cutting men's hair for a living. But how expandable is this field and how rewarding is it?
Hi, thank you so much for that comment. I really admire your honesty. I think you should do what makes you happy regardless of what anyone says or thinks. You can always be successful if it's something you truly want to do. Just like any other career, you will get out of it what you put into it. You can definitely make a good living out of being a cosmetologist. I would say go for it if you are passionate about it! It is extremely rewarding if you like making people feel beautiful inside and out. You can definitely make great lifelong connections/friendships. I hope it all works out, Good luck to you :)
Can you share how you learn outside of school? Is it just youtube videos or are there more materials/options out there for continued learning after school? Thank you for posting this!
You're wrong about the smaller local schools being the same as the big fancy schools. Perhaps Aveda isn't what they say they are but I know for a fact that Vidal Sassoon and Toni and Guy have superior education and that someone who graduates from either one of those two is light years ahead of anyone who didn't. I know not everyone can afford to go to those schools especially if they don't live in the same town. It's a broken system and most beauty schools are promising to teach basics but they're not doing that. They're teaching irrelevant and poor techniques that teach bad habits and people are allowing them to get away with it simply because "that's the way it is". This attitude has hurt the entire industry. Have you looked at the national average income for hair stylists? It's so low because our standards are low. These schools are not and cannot teaching anyone the basics and I'm sorry but when a person graduates after putting life on hold and going into debt, shouldn't they at least be able to cut a straight line at natural fall? Or even know what natural fall is?! Or give a proper consultation? They can't even hold a comb properly...We need to stop letting this happen.
Don’t be afraid please , time goes by fast also if you’ve never accepted Jesus as your lord and savior please do so ask him to fill you with the Holy Spirit and ask him to bless you with his perfect will for your life if it’s his will for you to go there in the first place
I think it depends on where you go, from my experience, cosmetology school just teaches you the basics and you can specialize in anything after or on outside of school. I would call a few schools and ask :)
Just depends on your state and what the requirements are. I had to do 1550 and it just gave me more time to take clients and practice but it doesn't matter, you learn most of it out in the world after you're done with school. Just get a license and be done :)
@@Yelenahallum please tell us some of those supplies you would recommend that we should invest in when starting new as a cosmetologist. And what do you perceive is a new stylist as a drawback the pros and cons

Planning on it soon:)

I joined BCTuniversity and it has hundreds of tutorials and it's like $10 a month but so worth it!

Also going a little later in life (32) I have three kids 5 3 1 I’ve been a SAHM so I’m afraid to leave them 😢
I completely understand where you are coming from, same boat mama. Good luck! ❤

Can you share the links, that helped you to learn new techniques?
www.btcuniversity.com/pages/homepage
Is vlcc also best for cosmetology 😅
Btw, that over priced Stanley you have contains LEAD in HIGH AMOUNTS …. Look into it
can you become a curl specialist at cosmetology school?
I think it depends on where you go, from my experience, cosmetology school just teaches you the basics and you can specialize in anything after or on outside of school. I would call a few schools and ask :)
@@Yelenahallum thanks so much! your video helped a lot!
Im in school at 50😮
Good for you!! 😊 it's never too late!
I'm in the process of leaving the US air force to pursue cosmetology and I'm 39....never too late to start a new chapter
Do you recommend 1000 hours or 1500 hours
Just depends on your state and what the requirements are. I had to do 1550 and it just gave me more time to take clients and practice but it doesn't matter, you learn most of it out in the world after you're done with school. Just get a license and be done :)
If students go back to school after they finish the required hours they DO get charged by the school.
I am not sure? I'm assuming so. I would call them and ask :)
How hard was it for you to start getting new clients?
I will actually answer this in a new video soon :)
@@Yelenahallum please tell us some of those supplies you would recommend that we should invest in when starting new as a cosmetologist. And what do you perceive is a new stylist as a drawback the pros and cons
What school did you go to in a Minnesota?
Empire beauty school :)
@@Yelenahallumplease do they take international students?
Its a scam dont do it unless you are serious about opening up
Your own spot. You wont learn much and theres a ton of drama.
I don’t think it’s a scam just ignore the drama folk and move along
You don’t look 30🫶🏽
