Beauty school

I’m currently a senior in high school so I’ve been thinking a lot about what I want to do with my life. I think I’ve changed my mind at least 5 times and right now I have my mind on beauty school. I love doing makeup and I think it’d be a perfect fit for me. I just want to hear about other people’s experience with it. Did you like it? Was it worth it? I’ve heard it’s really competitive, is it? Do you have a good career?

I’ve also never really done other people’s makeup, only my own. Sometimes I do my best friends makeup but that’s really all. Is that okay? Can I start with only that experience or will I completely fail?
