Cosmetology license worth it?

Question

Ive been trying to force myself to go into work fields that I dont enjoy to make things work out with my family. Well today I stop that. 
I love makeup and hair and nails, all of the sort, I really would LOVE to go into a life of making people feel beautiful and enjoy my work. 
Has anyone gone through the programs before? How do you go about it? How long did it take, how expensive was it? Was it worth it?

Answer

It took me about 2 years going part time  and about 4 months of vacations, the course was about $12,000.00 but if you qualify for the aid you can pay from 1000 for the entire course, you wont learn much honestly just theory and sanitation but it was definitely worth it, having a licence gives you better opportunities and you also get professional discount from a LOT of beauty brands. And on the side you get to know a lot of people and its just fun.

Answer

In my opinion i dont think its worth it at all. You pay all this money for this course and tons of people out here are doing makeup without it and getting paid. I can say i have at least 4-5 friends that do make up and promote it through social media and don’t have that license and get a pretty good amount of clients.

Answer

I’m sort of in the same situation. I don’t want to be in tons of student aid debt so I’m attending a cosmetology orientation tomorrow at this community college near my house. It is reeeeeeeaaaaaaaalllllllyyy cheaper compared to the Beauty schools here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Plus I’ll qualify for financial aid!!!!! Go for it!!!

Answer

It really depends on what you do and where you go. I’m currently in the process of enrolling into the cosmetology program where i live. For me, i get some financial aid so I’m left with about $10k to pay. The program I’m doing is like a year and a half since i work full time. But the school you go to will be able to give you all the details.
