5 Tips For New Estheticians

+Starting out in a new industry is always scary and exciting. In a field as vast and fast paced as ours, getting started can seem all the more overwhelming. I wanted to share with you all some of the lessons I've learned (some of them the hard way) that can hopefully spare some of the headache of being a brand new esthetician. If you're an experienced beauty pro and have more tips to share, drop them in the comments below!

+Get a job in your new industry that complements your skill sets. You can either dive right in and get a job being an esthetician or do something that is more focused on admin and customer service. I think both parts of the business are important to get experience in. 
Work for someone else! The best thing I ever did was work for other people before going out on my own. It gave me experience, confidence and I was able to connect and learn from people with more experience than myself. 

+Learn about skincare ingredients and their main benefits/contraindications etc. I did a 9 week training on product knowledge and learned so much more in that 9 weeks than I did in school. This helped me to be more confident in future jobs, going out on my own and selling retail. 

+Be adaptable, in tune, and open to change. Be open to try new services, new products, meet new people, try things that excite you. Pay attention to what you’re drawn to. This will be a time where you will get to know yourself and what you like. 
Save a small percentage of anything you make and start building a savings! It might not be much now but as you continue to make money you’ll be in the habit of saving and it will be much easier to continue. 
If you're feeling stuck, needing guidance, or just want to start your career off on the right foot, you can always book a one-on-one call with me here.
