How to Become an Esthetician

If you enjoy watching Dr. Pimple Popper’s videos, learning about skincare, or helping others with their skin, becoming an Esthetician is the perfect career for you. To start your journey of becoming an esthetician, you will need to do a few things, like getting your cosmetology degree and undergoing 260-700 hours of training at an accredited school. While this may seem like a lot of work, you will learn what you need to know to be better prepared to face an actual client with real needs.

Some of the things you will learn in cosmetology school will tie into what you will do in your everyday life as an esthetician. These include giving facials, acne treatments, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, body scrubs, masks and wraps, hair removal, and even makeup. You will perform these services and are expected to interact with your clients and make recommendations on skin care products and procedures.

After you have gone through the required training and schooling and have been certified by the Ohio State Cosmetology and Barber Board, you can start working at salons and even start a small business if that is your goal. It is crucial, even with your training, to stay on top of trends that are going on right now. Not only will it help you gain clientele, but it will also aid you in answering any questions your existing customers have. You can go to many places to get different certifications to grow your skill set. One of these places is Mansfield, Ohio’s very own Fairlawn Aesthetic MD.
