By 2030, employment in the Cosmetology industry is expected to grow by 19%. Cosmetologists apply beauty treatments that treat hair, skin, and nails.

 Do you love all things beauty, being creative, and being outside of the standard office environment? If so, Cosmetology school may be right for you. Check out nine advantages to working as a cosmetologist.

1. High Demand

The beauty industry provides services that most people will use in their lifetime. These services occur regularly, such as haircuts, coloring, and manicures. The routine need for someone to perform them makes cosmetology an in-demand career that’s here to stay.

2. Creative Outlet

If you love being creative, cosmetology is a career that allows you to stretch those creative muscles. Creating a beautiful cut, adding color or highlights, up-dos, and makeup application provide endless possibilities for you to get creative. Over time, sometimes even as a Cosmetology student, you develop a unique signature that keeps customers coming back to you.

3. Flexibility

Instead of being tied to a 9-5 schedule every day, you’ll have the flexibility to work to make a schedule that gives you the most work-life balance. Most salons run at a wide range of hours with the option to choose from a variety of different shifts to fit your schedule.

4. A Variety of Opportunities

You don’t have to be only a hairstylist if you enter the world of Cosmetology. You’ll have the opportunity to work in a variety of roles:

  • Freelancer
  • Makeup Artist
  • Salon Owner
  • Nail Technician
  • Wedding/Event stylist
  • Barber
  • Hair Styling
  • Hair Removal
  • Beauty Influencer
  • Instructor

The array of cosmetology careers out there gives you the flexibility to find your niche in the industry. 

 5. Quick Timeline to Get Started

One of the best things about beauty school is the shorter timeline. A full-time beauty student may be able to complete their education program in less than a year.

6. Earning Potential

As a Cosmetologist your earning potential is up to you. Most salons offer commission tiers based on the level of work you put in and the continued learning you receive. As you learn to perform more services and build a loyal client base, your take-home pay increases.

7. Form Lasting Relationships

As you build a loyal client base, you’ll also be forming lasting relationships with your clients. You’ll be helping them look and feel their best during their time in your chair and develop friendships along the way.

8. Continued Education 

In the beauty industry education doesn’t stop after cosmetology school. Most salons offer continued education and workshops to keep developing new skills as you advance in your career.

9. Give the Gift of Confidence

One of the most rewarding things about working in this industry is the impact you have on others. Your talent brings confidence to clients by helping them look and feel amazing. Having this sense of meaning in a career improves long-term job satisfaction.
