Today the world is getting westernized day by day, and fashion industry has taken its place. The people are emphasizing more on their looks and this leads them to have their hair cut in a stylish manner. So, to be a good-looking one, they need the help of cosmetologists or the barbers. Cosmetologists are those who specialize in hair cutting, styling, and the application of various chemicals on hairs for different types of treatments like coloring, straightening etc... Since, these cosmetologists also offer various other services like pedicure, manicure, assistance for removal of hair, these are also known as beauticians.
Comparing to this, barbers offer services like hair cut, trimming and shaving of beard and sometimes light massage, as their clients are usually males. But the demand of the hair dressers in the market is always there, either it may be in the form of cosmetologists or barbers. So to be a good hair dresser, either you had to join a cosmetology school, or join and become an apprentice in any saloon.
Educational requirements to become a hair-dresser: A candidate seeking his carrier in hair-dressing must be at least 16 year old and be licensed by the state in which he is willing to work. Although hairdressing doesn?t require the academic knowledge while cutting and curling the hairs but one should at-least pass the high school as it help one to mingle with the other people. Many cosmetology schools also specify this elementary knowledge as the eligibility criteria for the students who want to enroll themselves in this trade. Also this is a social trade, so the basic education helps the candidate to make him ready for the small talks and deeper discussions with his client. Apart from these educational requirements, there is so much that goes into being a good hair dresser which requires a lengthy hand-on training and practice.
As fashion changes every year, hair designs also changes every year. To cope up with the market, hair-dressers need to be creative, so that they make you look good by cutting and styling your hairs, or coloring your hairs. This trade has limitless potential for making money as long as hair dressers work hard at their trade and have the ability to communicate well with the clients. Sometimes it happens that the customer is not able to tell what they want to the hair dresser but they expect the hair dressers to do their job as they want. So, to become a good hair dresser, it is very important for them to learn to visually pick the clues from the customer, so that they can please them with their services and this will make the good impression on the clients and make them positive towards the hair dressers.
After completing the course at cosmetology schools accredited by NACCAS (National Accrediting Commission of Cosmetology Arts and Sciences), and acquired the license for hairdressing from the state, one can open his own saloon or can work at any saloon. Now, check whether you have the traits required for being a hair dresser, and if you have then choose this as your career option and rush to a good cosmetology school and enroll yourself there. I wish all the best for the emerging hair-dressers.
