The beauty industry is unfortunately fairly unregulated these days, meaning, anyone can offer a course and print you a pretty certificate🤨
Unless you research well and dig deep, most students are unaware that the piece of paper is not worth the money they have invested…
And worst of all some courses have not even given students any great information or skills what so ever!
This leads to a learner/student not confident and perhaps even performing unsafe or dangerous treatments.
It is hot topic at the moment and it can be very confusing with so many being offered!
There are some courses that offer Government Approved Units and Qualifications, but the lecturer is not in the industry and perhaps doesn’t understand the treatment themselves to even help you. Let alone the business experience of running a successful lash salon or home business.
I’ve seen it all and would hate for you to make the same mistakes.
Here’s my top 7 advice when it comes to choosing the right path ⬇️
👉🏻 Think of your goals, if you are just beginning and foresee a great future in the beauty industry then find a GOVERNMENT APPROVED COLLEGE that supplies you with UNITS OF COMPETENCIES, these you can build on to form a Diploma (the code can look something like this SHBBMUP001).
👉🏻 Research this company and ask to meet former students or read and ask for genuine reviews.
👉🏻 Ask if the lecturer performs the procedure regularly and they have modified treatments to keep up to date and relevant in the industry.
👉🏻 Make sure they have a support group for post course that you can reach out to
👉🏻 Do you resonate with the lecturer, would you feel comfortable to ask questions and have an enjoyable time whilst learning
👉🏻 Never choose your course just on price or because it comes with a kit, good value bundles that sound too good to be true usually are!
👉🏻 Never choose your course because you can learn it all in one day when the majority offered are much more, once again too good to be true!
