Having licence may not be the most important thing but it gives you confidence you have the knowledge that's needed. And it gives your clients confidence to choose you as their stylist.
@@iheartyouuwu6938 I am not competent to answer that question. In my country every stylist have a license. But there are license companies that are not pricey but the quality they give is equally low. So someone having a license doesn't guarantee you good results. Sorry I can't answer hope someone came up with checked info
In the US (my state at least) you’re required to go to cosmetology school and take a licensing exam. There’s testing on anatomy and different infections and stuff as well.
In the US they do require licensing. Not necessarily to prove quality of the cut, color, etc, but instead because you have to learn how to do your services with the clients health and safety in mind as well. For example, in the class i was in, we had to get certified with barbicide which sanitizes all of your tools between clients. We also learned about infections and even certain cancers. We learned the proper way to give facials and mani-pedis, and also when to not perform a service on clients. The license is of utmost importance for health and safety standards to be properly met.

@@imaspecialgirllalala 3a, 3b, 3c, 4a, 4b, 4c if you want to be specific about texture and patterns, you know what I meant. These are clearly eurocentric textures pictured.

Just fyi to anyone wanting to go to cosmetology school. The hardest part is the chemistry part. My mom is a cosmetologist and told me she had to study really hard and most people don’t pass the first time. You also have to learn out health and hygiene. How to treat infections, properly disinfect, and they changed this but you had to be tested for tuberculosis. Cosmetology is a lot more than just doing hair, nails, and makeup. Just and fyi it’s still very fun and worth it.
I went to school for it too and have to agree! I loved chemistry so the hardest part for me was the anatomy portion. You have to learn all the bones, nerves, muscles, veins, arteries, etc! I did a tech school program during high school, it's a lot, but my whole program passed their first time taking the state exam! That part is all about researching the school and (aside from personal motivation to learn and perform well,) making sure your instructors know what they're talking about.
Yes!! I’m currently taking cosmetology through my high school’s career program, and I didn’t realize going in just how much we were going to learn about the human body and it’s chemistry!! Thank god for quizlet!! I found so many flash cards other people had made straight from our Milady Cosmetology textbook!
agreed, i went to cosmetology school after graduating from mortuary school so it was way easier for me after already getting the chem and anatomy done!
this is exactly what my cosmo teacher says. i’m in a high school program and my teacher is also concerned about this so she’s putting it in our curriculum and i couldn’t be more excited to learn how to properly cut and style textured hairrr!
@@chvrlottc that’s so exciting!! i love that your teacher made sure y’all are able to learn on different types of hair! i have long thick curly hair, and where i live almost all salons heavily up charge depending on your hair texture and thickness.
I left cosmetology school when I came to this realization. I'm not paying an arm and a leg for a half ass education and so I can work on white women with limp fine hair comfortably.
But they never teach stylists how to do natural hair. I’ve met hair stylists that don’t even understand how to properly style curly hair, nevermind 4c (or any type) hair
my cosmetology teacher says this same thing that they don’t teach a lot of things on textured hair, so rn we’re learning how to do curly cuts and proper styling and products for it! i’m only a freshman in high school too so i’m so excited to learn how to widen the range as i move farther along. 👏👏
Literally! I’m white, but I have thick wavy/curly hair and my stylist can’t do it, so she just ends up straightening it! I can’t image what POCs with curly hair have to go through, I wish they taught it!
I agree here but I see different sides to it too.. this may or may not be an accurate comparison, but this is just how I see it. I went to grooming school, where the levels of hair textures we learn on and about are a lot more than what humans learn about human hair. To this day i have graduated and been doing haircuts, and theres still lots of things I have not gone out of my way to learn because in my mind and this is also what I tell clients, there are groomers out there who learn specifically the kind of cuts they are looking for. There is a technique used for terrier breeds coats like airedales, schnauzers, westies, etc. Called hand stripping. I know about and what it looks like, but I do not do handstripping. It is not something I wanted to learn about, nor do I enjoy. They are free to go to another groomer who specializes in it, I do clipper work on terrier hair. If someone wants a person who specializes in curly hair, they do not have to stay with their current stylist if they don't want to?.. Usually the reason any of my clients don't is because they realize the intricacy involved in, example, handstripping, takes hours and groomers need compensation for that time and it's hundreds of dollars vs the fifty they would be charged if I did the haircut in my way. Some hair textures require the extra time and research to do it not just properly, but excellently. Again this is just comparison, I would not trust me to do a handstripping job I would MUCH prefer to spend the money and go to someone who specializes in that.. Girlies get y'all a specialist who knows what they're doing. You don't want the girl in this video doing it 🤣 go to the right people.
As a woman who has worked in a salon, and has a brother who has been a colorist for over 10 years- it SHOCKS me how little beauty school actually teaches students. It’s a total scam. Color theory is so poorly taught, along with accurately coloring different hair types- and the dangers of over processing. It’s also extremely disheartening that beauty schools do not require learning about all types of hair, including textured hair. So upsetting.
Maybe just where you live where I live they teach you how to mange black people Puerto Rican people every hair type is what I’m trying to say and exactly what you said they have to or they can get fired or loose their licence and never work as a cosmetologist again
i go to Tricoci, and thankfully we learn textured hair! but sadly my school lacks with how far they teach subjects. some areas we are well versed on but others if the teacher doesn’t like that subject then they choose not to give us more detail. but i’ve heard no cosmology school is perfect, it’s always lacking something
Bros triggered by a 30 second video that likely doesn’t really show absolutely everything at the school. She showed ax single clip for each and yore assuming that this is all they have. Do you even know what school this is? No. They likely do have, but these are just the videoed she showed. Leaving a bare comment on something you barely know about is idiotic, and bitchy.
So annoying that you’re paying for an education and they won’t even teach you to do different textured/ethnicity hair. Edit: I’m not saying they don’t teach it anywhere 😂 y’all in the comments saying “um actually I at my school learned” good for you, I’m addressing this video above and the part two of this video that didn’t include any curly/coily/frizzy/thick/dry/oily hair lol and he fact is that a lot of places in the US and especially the middle and northern states have maybe a couple days or minimal coverage at best. Not everywhere, maybe not YOUR school, because you’re a special snowflake, but too many when the number should be none. Not to mention the makeup part is also lacking in some places because there are some folks who pass and graduate and know nothing about undertones and think just darker is all you need and ultimately make everyone look ashy or gray lol
@@Lethalbarbie that’s good for you, but she’s a cosmetology student who is paying money to learn and they didn’t teach her that. And for most people they don’t.
It should be the standard to teach it as it’d be a phenomenal business practice. The black hair industry is worth BILLIONs. Wouldn’t it be wise to give your students the tools to tap into that…?
As someone with really really straight hair, it kinda rubs me the wrong way that there was not one thing learned about curly hair/ non Caucasian hair. Like 3a all up to 4c curls are absolutely gorgeous and it should be learned how to treat/maintain/ cut them.
@BagelEditz it's not even really about OP but more so the fact that in western cultures, non - caucasian hair finds almost no recognition and is widely underappreciated, sometimes even fully left out of teachings. My comment was in no way to shed hate to OP, and I hope it didn't seem that way.
@BagelEditz well people from africa didn't go and colonize land of white people and as far as I know they also didn't have huuuge amounts of slaves shipped into Africa. Alot of African Americans wouldn't even be in America without colonialism so the absolutely freaking least we COULD do, is learn how to do their hair. It's quite literally the bare minimum.
@@vp2718 not a single video she has mentioned or done anything with curly hair, it’s a known issue with cosmetology school that they don’t teach anything about curly hair
Love it! There’s a lot more involved than people realize to get a license for being a cosmetologist. It’s great work especially when you love what you’re doing. There’s great money in this business n you can go far if you keep up your education. There’s always new innovations to learn in order to keep up with this career. I’m a retired cosmetologist of 40 years. I love seeing everything new that’s going on. It’s an art n the people who work their art have to do it over n over, every day on different people. It takes a special person to be successful. Working with the public on your way up can be a trying challenge at times. Keep doing great work and your clients that you keep will like and respect you. The better educated you are the more motivated n thereby more money. Ka ching! 💝✂️💝
It’s so Weird that everyone is saying it’s not standard to learn about natural/textured hair because I’m In cos school right now and it is required for us to learn things like relaxers, finger waves, braid ins, silk press, hot stoves…. We actually just took our GPX exam for relaxers, which is an exam required by the state. I will say I have excellent instructors that made it a priority and that can make a huge difference.
It's really fun, if you're interested in braiding make sure the school that you go to teaches the types of braids you wanna do, most schools "braids" are just for white hair, but there's plenty of really good schools that'll teach you everything.
I live in the Caribbean and was never thought how to do hair for white people only black girls and it takes so long to do their hair but they come out looking like queens ❤️
They need to start teaching about curly hair because I have super thick curly hair and whenever I try out a new salon most the time I get told “oh i don’t know how to do hair like that”
Cosmetology school teaches you how to do hair not all hair but hair which is why so many people with curly hair get charged an arm and a leg when it takes 10 hr to color hair or to “treat” their hair when they think it’s damaged.
@@Tropically5 I've been to a cosmetology school and many people with true curls allow them to style however most don't because they don't know how to treat and care for their hair. Of course it's different in many situations but it still falls on the stylist because stylist can style hair not just straight hair.
i wish i went to cosmetology school. im in college and being in a classroom is hard for my anxiety and hard to focus for so long.. and doing homework. school is not really for me. i wanna be a nail tech.. maybe in a decade ill pay off college and go back to school for cosmetology
@@taylorswiftsucks if you’re able to i’d recommend talking to a trusted adult or guardian about this! Never say never! It was very scary for me to realize that college wasn’t for me! I was in my first semester and absolutely FAILING. my mental health was worse then ever before, but talking with my friends and what was essentially my college guidance counselor i was able to go to beauty school. It was scary to consider myself a “college dropout” but i’m very happy with what i’m doing now. But i must say, it’s not easy, and you will have to interact with people, this kinda job is not only cutting hair but also being a support, confidant and friend to your clients
@@fruit4evr im in my second semester and i am failing but trying my best. im scared to tell my parents. i need to pass my classes. thank you for the wise words. idk if they would let me drop out tho
Im thinking about learning cosmetology in high school (so next year) and im really excited because I have been talking about doing it for almost 3 years now ❤😊
For most schools no, white, straight to mildly wavy hair is the only hair you are taught to work with and style. Only a few schools teach the full spectrum of hair and they have to go outside of what's in the textbooks cause black and Asian hair really ain't in there. I hope it gets better with time but if you are interested you can definitely find schools that ACTUALLY teach the full spectrum of hair types and textures, (some will claim to but it's only like one days worth of curriculum)
@@pooowater yes!! my parents were in cosmetology school and once sister, a girl with curly hair, came in the picture they were dumbfounded on what to do with her hair…so no, most schools unfortunately do not teach how to style or treat different hair types
if you want to learn about other types of hair you need to find an instructor who is willing to teach it because it’s not in the program i had a black instructor who taught me how to do things like, protective styles, relaxers, etc.
Wish mine taught all that! We were taught how to pass state board and that’s it! (When we would complain we were told “I only have to teach you how to pass, nothing else”) We only learned a cut/service if the person in our chair was getting it. So if you’re looking into cosmetology school make sure you do your research on the schools and go get a service done before applying so you can see how it really is.
Idk, most schools I've seen don't do curly hair it's actually rascist and robbery, 20k for fishtail braids that nobody is gonna come into the salon for?
Are roller sets used a lot in cosmology school? I roll my friends hair almost every day because I like 1940s styles but I rarely see anyone in real life have rolled hair (unless it’s like really really large Velcro rollers)
There's so much they don't teach you in cosmetology school. A majority of our knowledge comes from working in the industry. They teach you just enough to be safe and sanitary amd pass your state board testing. I expected more for that $20K.
I went to Empire, & I’m grateful that my class was diverse and a good mix of all different hair textures. I don’t know about other schools but we did all get a brown mannequin with natural hair. We learned how to do all different types of braids and how to use hot combs, and practiced a lot on each other. Everyone was willing to learn, ask questions and teach others about our own hair textures. We had so much fun, I really enjoyed our class. School can be a good time when you are learning about something that you’re interested in. I worked most of my career in the inner city and got a lot of experience with all different hair types. Now, 14 years into my career I can confidently cut and style anybody that sits in my chair. You never stop learning in this field, there is always a new style, trend or method that you can pick up on and grow your skill set.
I know a lot of hairdressers don’t know how to cut curly hair, and so many people have messed up my or my friends haircuts by cutting it wet. Do you do that?
At my school, (I go to a tech school for cosmetology) we learned how to cut ethnic hair in our level 1 year. I’m so glad I learned it and we did cut it dry. I wish other schools would teach that, it’s important to know to how dress all hair types and textures!
Probably not, there's a few schools that teach textured hair but the majority ignore it completely, which is both racist and absurd for the $20,000 price tag attached to school.
Depends what state you're in, in some it's illegal to practice cosmetology without a licence, I've heard of some women doing braiding out of their house, and getting board members knocking at their door to bust them.
Where I went to school it costed about 10,000 total, including all my supplies, and because it was connected to a community college, I was able to get a Pell grant that paid for most of it, and the actual license isn’t very expensive at all, though at the current rate of inflation, I expect it will be 20,000 soon
Well a license proves your skill to potential clients. I wouldn't trust someone without job training claiming to know all these things to the core. It's assuring for your clients but also for you, to get your skills approved.
I feel like sometimes schools are just a convenient place to learn things. I mean if it seems that all these skills you can learn by yourself with some videos then why go to school for it?
im so excited to learn more, i finished learning how to cut hair. in grade 11 thats when the perms and dying hair comes in, but we should learn how to handle all hair types. i never learned on curly hair
im so excited to start cosmetology school and to learn more about straight hair and coloring hair as well I know alot of people in the comment section are talking about textured hair which i feel like should be taught but its the opposite for me im excited to learn about difference hair types also i cant wait to help other students learn about texture or kinky hair i think that if we help each other the more will grow
I want to stitch this with me just saying all I learned in beauty school was how to cry and be overwhelmed hahaha doing great cosmo of 7 years going on 8 and it’s a wonderful skill set to have❤ cheers
i imagine cutting on these heads feels sooooo different than a real head/hair? i kinda feel bad for not letting my husbands cousin practice on me but then again it took her a few years to get where shes at now 😅
It's a bit harder, especially with parting and sectioning the hair 💀💀 definitely don't let someone practice on you if you're not comfortable, i practiced on myself and family but also there's a risk your hair gets jacked up
She made it look like her instructors taught her that. When really it was all learned through youtube 😅. Well, my instructors were bad at teaching so 🤷 my work was self taught
I went to cosmetology school every weekday minus summer vacation for almost two years, and we had to go SUPER in depth. We had to know the history and chemistry of everything we were doing, not just “how” but also “why.” Theorem and practicum and 3 desperate tests on each for EVERY little thing. It built a super strong knowledge base. We had a high drop out rate, but also a 100% state board pass rate. I joined the program because after many years of college and doing years of an equivalent tech job in the military, I found myself growing increasingly isolated. I left the house less and less, and it kept getting harder to do so, so I wanted to switch careers into something that kept me social. All my friends from home were dead by the time I was 30, and my military friends are far flung, the ones that are left, so it had become “too easy” to work from home and avoid interacting with people. I didn’t understand their “credit hour” structure, so I thought “8 months or so.” Boy was I wrong, lol. I’ve gone through two college degrees, but that cosmetology program was WAY more intense and required more than a degrees worth of school. In college, a full course load means maybe 8 hours or in school time a week, spread out. In my cosmetology school, it was 30 hours a week, and a daily commitment! I love it, but know what you’re signing up for in ANY program.
Plus chemistry, ph levels, electricity, history of hair, dealing with different textures, manicures, pedicures, color corrections, facials, waxing, shampoos and relaxation techniques with your scalp massaging, business etiquette, relaxers, curl reform, extentions.... we learn alot. We have to have a certain amount of clocked in hours b4 we're even allowed to touch a client. But this is just the tip of the iceberg I learned SOOO much and still continue to add to my education it's one of those things if u dont stay with the times u could get left behind.
Notice how they don’t teach you how to cut textured hair. They only teach you how to cut one type of hair, straight. You can’t cut wavy, curly, or coily hair like straight hair. It won’t allow your curls to form and fall correctly, and will only cause frizz. Cosmetology schools need to include how to give a proper shape up and curly cut. Teach the students that there are different hair types and they require different cutting techniques than straight hair. When going to a new hairdresser, and they immediately take out the flat iron, or bring out the water, I immediately get out of that chair bc I know my curls are about to get butchered and I’ll have to straighten my hair for the next few months just for it to look decent.
Yeah it's messed up that must schools don't, the reason i picked my school was because they're main focus is ALL hair textures. Def find a stylists that specializes in your curl pattern or go to a black salon
The problem i have with cosmetology school is that they dont teach you how to play with all tectures to the same comfort degree. What solidified my decision on going was when my friend told me they dont actually teach you everything and you learn more from friends, youtube and salons once accepted. You also only get your license in one area. You have to pay 20k if you want to get your license in coloring. Another 10k if you want license to cut hair, another 10k if you want to add license for neutral colors and again for styling. This is if you already paid 20k for the first area you choose to learn in. After. That you have to pay for each additional one. Idk if i explained that well but its fcked up in my state. I know it may be different somewhere else. WA btw. I was gonna join 5 years ago but thats how the school explained it to me and then i tried again after covid and they had mot improved. Its too exclusive for me. I have 3b-c hair and i dont need to hear people tell me i could do my hair better when they dont even know my hair. NAILS! Nails are worth going for! As far as learning hygiene and building a customer base. Its much cheaper too and you dont have to pay separately to learn gel or acrylic they cover both. But again. They lack in tips and tricks.
That definitely doesn’t sound right at all. It should be 20k for cosmetology license that allows you to do coloring, styling, cute, relaxers, perms, facials, and nails. Barbering would be haircuts with a straight razor/ color, perms no nails. And a manicurist is nails. Estheticians are a separate thing. Either they didn’t explain it right or they’re trying to screw you.
That school is an actual scam, 20k for cosmo license includes cutting coloring etc, most schools unfortunately don't teach textured hair but you can find good ones, sorry you had to experience that scam of a school.
My cosmetology only taught us how to pass the state board. I was in no way shape or form able to pursue a job in hair color/cutting. You get more out of an apprenticeship. I ended up sticking to nails instead of hair.
@@pooowater My mom went to a school where they learn to do nails and she has a particular school in mind and I might be able to learn there but I don’t know at what age I can go, I turn 13 in July and it’s my summer break

Cosmetology school is designed to teach you the most basic stuff that’s on The practical and written test to get your license. And when I when to school we did learn some stuff about textured hair . But it’s up to you to get your own classes and do further education and research on how to style and cut natural hair . It also depends on the region where your located and the state you live in to what will be on your practical and written .
i think they should also teach how to handle. curly hair because a big population of people of curly hair and not enough hair stylist know how to do it
She forgot .. nails, facials, makeup, chemistry, physiology and anatomy. The actual education that makes you a master in your craft. There's so much to becoming a cosmetologist it's not just about making people look good. Licensed 8 years going strong 💅
I wish basic edge ups were part of what they teach you there because getting an appointment at the barber for my 10 year old son and boyfriend is annoying and I just want to go to the salon and get it done fast and easy😩
The crazy part is the braiding portion is so short and the perms aka perminant wave and rods/ roller set module is SOOOO long I hated it oh but the bleaching and coloring mod was my favorite 😅
I remember when i got my first perm at 15. I loved my curls so much but it made my hair fall out a lot. To this day i still shed too much hair than i did before i got the perm 10 years ago.
People say they dont teach about textured hair but i go to school in GA where a lot of our clients have textured hair i know how to do relaxers, box braids, knotless braids, 2 strand twists, silk press, proper detangling and care techniques and more so dont think we dont learn something about it, learning textured hair comes with experience and the chance to work on the actual hair. Textured hair mannequins are just fine hair mannequins with curly hair texture its much different than irl textured hair. Cosmetology school teaches basic technique and santation its up to you to learn what you want to know how to do. Shes basically showing what we need to know to take the license exam which is what they teach you
The stylists that she works with do style and treat textured/curly hair, personally I wouldnt think she'd have to specify what types of hair she treats..
Unfortunately it's important to specify because most schools don't teach it, if you have tight curls you cannot walk into any hair salon they will jack you up, I've heard of ppl going to cosmetology school and the recruiters saying how diverse it is, and then not teaching them how to do their own hair cause it's curly, or not having makeup dark enough for their skin.
Having licence may not be the most important thing but it gives you confidence you have the knowledge that's needed. And it gives your clients confidence to choose you as their stylist.

I went to grooming school, where the levels of hair textures we learn on and about are a lot more than what humans learn about human hair. To this day i have graduated and been doing haircuts, and theres still lots of things I have not gone out of my way to learn because in my mind and this is also what I tell clients, there are groomers out there who learn specifically the kind of cuts they are looking for. There is a technique used for terrier breeds coats like airedales, schnauzers, westies, etc. Called hand stripping. I know about and what it looks like, but I do not do handstripping. It is not something I wanted to learn about, nor do I enjoy. They are free to go to another groomer who specializes in it, I do clipper work on terrier hair. If someone wants a person who specializes in curly hair, they do not have to stay with their current stylist if they don't want to?.. Usually the reason any of my clients don't is because they realize the intricacy involved in, example, handstripping, takes hours and groomers need compensation for that time and it's hundreds of dollars vs the fifty they would be charged if I did the haircut in my way. Some hair textures require the extra time and research to do it not just properly, but excellently. Again this is just comparison, I would not trust me to do a handstripping job I would MUCH prefer to spend the money and go to someone who specializes in that.. Girlies get y'all a specialist who knows what they're doing. You don't want the girl in this video doing it 🤣 go to the right people.
Yeah she couldn't even make the French braid look nice 😭
It’s sad they didn’t teach you anything about curly hair 😔
Fr im going to cosmetology school next year and when I visited the school they had no mannequins with textured hair.
Part 1.
Curly or coily hair - it’s so sad :(
This is only part one so we don't really know
@@ArtBySoup coily hair is curly hair 😂
It's just a curl type
As a woman who has worked in a salon, and has a brother who has been a colorist for over 10 years- it SHOCKS me how little beauty school actually teaches students.
It’s a total scam.
Color theory is so poorly taught, along with accurately coloring different hair types- and the dangers of over processing.
It’s also extremely disheartening that beauty schools do not require learning about all types of hair, including textured hair. So upsetting.
Maybe just where you live where I live they teach you how to mange black people Puerto Rican people every hair type is what I’m trying to say and exactly what you said they have to or they can get fired or loose their licence and never work as a cosmetologist again
Not to sound rude
i go to Tricoci, and thankfully we learn textured hair! but sadly my school lacks with how far they teach subjects. some areas we are well versed on but others if the teacher doesn’t like that subject then they choose not to give us more detail. but i’ve heard no cosmology school is perfect, it’s always lacking something
Me as an Aveda graduate
yeah, like i want to go to cosmetology to maybe get to work behind movie scenes and whatnot but i don't think it'll teach me everything i need to know
wow there’s so much diversity in hair textures at this school woooowww woww 😍
Bros triggered by a 30 second video that likely doesn’t really show absolutely everything at the school. She showed ax single clip for each and yore assuming that this is all they have. Do you even know what school this is? No. They likely do have, but these are just the videoed she showed. Leaving a bare comment on something you barely know about is idiotic, and bitchy.
@@emmanethery73 💀💀💀💀 BROOOO THE FUCKING IRONY I CAN'T
@@emmanethery73 bro why did you get irrationally Angry at this comment
@@emmanethery73 she also said part 1
This is why some of us only go to certain salons
So annoying that you’re paying for an education and they won’t even teach you to do different textured/ethnicity hair.
Edit: I’m not saying they don’t teach it anywhere 😂 y’all in the comments saying “um actually I at my school learned” good for you, I’m addressing this video above and the part two of this video that didn’t include any curly/coily/frizzy/thick/dry/oily hair lol and he fact is that a lot of places in the US and especially the middle and northern states have maybe a couple days or minimal coverage at best. Not everywhere, maybe not YOUR school, because you’re a special snowflake, but too many when the number should be none.
Not to mention the makeup part is also lacking in some places because there are some folks who pass and graduate and know nothing about undertones and think just darker is all you need and ultimately make everyone look ashy or gray lol
RIGHT??
Each school is different. I was taught ethinc hair at rizzieri Aveda
@@Lethalbarbie that’s good for you, but she’s a cosmetology student who is paying money to learn and they didn’t teach her that. And for most people they don’t.
It should be the standard to teach it as it’d be a phenomenal business practice. The black hair industry is worth BILLIONs. Wouldn’t it be wise to give your students the tools to tap into that…?
That’s what I was thinking :(
As someone with really really straight hair, it kinda rubs me the wrong way that there was not one thing learned about curly hair/ non Caucasian hair.
Like 3a all up to 4c curls are absolutely gorgeous and it should be learned how to treat/maintain/ cut them.
@BagelEditz it's not even really about OP but more so the fact that in western cultures, non - caucasian hair finds almost no recognition and is widely underappreciated, sometimes even fully left out of teachings.
My comment was in no way to shed hate to OP, and I hope it didn't seem that way.
Yeah it's messed up, it should be the default, and it's not like it's some rare hair type in the US, it's super common like 50% of people have it.
@BagelEditz well people from africa didn't go and colonize land of white people and as far as I know they also didn't have huuuge amounts of slaves shipped into Africa.
Alot of African Americans wouldn't even be in America without colonialism so the absolutely freaking least we COULD do, is learn how to do their hair.
It's quite literally the bare minimum.
@@pooowater exactly! It's called inclusivity and America should **REALLY** try it.
Thankful my cosmo school actually had a full class for curly and ethnic hair ❤️ honestly my favorite, I love me some curls
The extra fried golden and crispy hair shows how much these people used the mannequins to practice
You crack me up with your personality! LOVE IT
And they didn’t bother to teach anything about curly hair
@BagelEditz perms, curling iron curls and straightening type four hair yes, learning how to style and cut actual curly hair, no.
@@vp2718 not a single video she has mentioned or done anything with curly hair, it’s a known issue with cosmetology school that they don’t teach anything about curly hair
Love it! There’s a lot more involved than people realize to get a license for being a cosmetologist. It’s great work especially when you love what you’re doing. There’s great money in this business n you can go far if you keep up your education. There’s always new innovations to learn in order to keep up with this career.
I’m a retired cosmetologist of 40 years. I love seeing everything new that’s going on. It’s an art n the people who work their art have to do it over n over, every day on different people. It takes a special person to be successful. Working with the public on your way up can be a trying challenge at times. Keep doing great work and your clients that you keep will like and respect you. The better educated you are the more motivated n thereby more money. Ka ching!

My cousin is in cosmetology school, been her dream but she’s never had the time. I’m really proud of her
Graduated from cosmetology class in 2021, I miss it everyday. My instructors were amazing ladies
Are u science student?
Yes! 3a/b here. I can't tell you how many times I've gone to a salon for a trim and been told they don't know how to do my "type of hair."
oh my god same! i remember when a stylist held me down and started DRY BRUSHING my hair.
I’m going to cosmetology school when I’m 16 and this channel has been such a help!! Thank you so much ❤
It’s so Weird that everyone is saying it’s not standard to learn about natural/textured hair because I’m In cos school right now and it is required for us to learn things like relaxers, finger waves, braid ins, silk press, hot stoves…. We actually just took our GPX exam for relaxers, which is an exam required by the state. I will say I have excellent instructors that made it a priority and that can make a huge difference.
I want to be a cosmetologist when I grow up I am learning how to get my braids neater and flat iron straighter
It's really fun, if you're interested in braiding make sure the school that you go to teaches the types of braids you wanna do, most schools "braids" are just for white hair, but there's plenty of really good schools that'll teach you everything.
I live in the Caribbean and was never thought how to do hair for white people only black girls and it takes so long to do their hair but they come out looking like queens ❤️
You're so talented and pretty. Ladies take notes. She's pretty awesome
Not them not teaching her how to handle curly/coily hair 💀
I wish their was a school to teach about natural hair 😢
You mean curly hair
It’s in common that they teach it because fake hair dosnet hold those curls and you need a person
When my mom went to hair school she said that when they where learning perms one of the girls mannequins started smoking and almost caught fire 🔥
I’m 13, and I want to be a cosmotologist so baddd!!
They need to teach about wavy and curly hair too
They need to start teaching about curly hair because I have super thick curly hair and whenever I try out a new salon most the time I get told “oh i don’t know how to do hair like that”
They don’t teach it because fake hair dosnet hold a curl and that’s what they practice on
This is why I go to black hair salons that know how to deal with 4c 😭
Well duh girl 😂
Cosmetology school teaches you how to do hair not all hair but hair which is why so many people with curly hair get charged an arm and a leg when it takes 10 hr to color hair or to “treat” their hair when they think it’s damaged.
It’s because fake hair dosent hold curls you need to practice on an adult client and not many people are willing to
@@Tropically5 I've been to a cosmetology school and many people with true curls allow them to style however most don't because they don't know how to treat and care for their hair. Of course it's different in many situations but it still falls on the stylist because stylist can style hair not just straight hair.
I’m going to cosmotology school now (Rizzieri Aveda School!) and i love it so much, we’re learning abt perms rn
i wish i went to cosmetology school. im in college and being in a classroom is hard for my anxiety and hard to focus for so long.. and doing homework. school is not really for me. i wanna be a nail tech.. maybe in a decade ill pay off college and go back to school for cosmetology
@@taylorswiftsucks if you’re able to i’d recommend talking to a trusted adult or guardian about this! Never say never!
It was very scary for me to realize that college wasn’t for me! I was in my first semester and absolutely FAILING. my mental health was worse then ever before, but talking with my friends and what was essentially my college guidance counselor i was able to go to beauty school.
It was scary to consider myself a “college dropout” but i’m very happy with what i’m doing now. But i must say, it’s not easy, and you will have to interact with people, this kinda job is not only cutting hair but also being a support, confidant and friend to your clients
@@fruit4evr im in my second semester and i am failing but trying my best. im scared to tell my parents. i need to pass my classes. thank you for the wise words. idk if they would let me drop out tho
Wow! I did not go to cosmetogy school abd can all of those things anyway. Crazy!
My cousins in cosmetology in college right now and she’s at least learning how to do all different hair types 😭
Im thinking about learning cosmetology in high school (so next year) and im really excited because I have been talking about doing it for almost 3 years now ❤😊
I'm going to cosmetology school in a few months, and I'm literally so excited
I am on the same career and i love it🎉❤
Hey curious question. In cosmology school do you learn to do hair on other hair types? (other than the ones shown in the video)
For most schools no, white, straight to mildly wavy hair is the only hair you are taught to work with and style. Only a few schools teach the full spectrum of hair and they have to go outside of what's in the textbooks cause black and Asian hair really ain't in there. I hope it gets better with time but if you are interested you can definitely find schools that ACTUALLY teach the full spectrum of hair types and textures, (some will claim to but it's only like one days worth of curriculum)
@@pooowater yes!! my parents were in cosmetology school and once sister, a girl with curly hair, came in the picture they were dumbfounded on what to do with her hair…so no, most schools unfortunately do not teach how to style or treat different hair types
wtf is asian hair
if you want to learn about other types of hair you need to find an instructor who is willing to teach it because it’s not in the program
i had a black instructor who taught me how to do things like, protective styles, relaxers, etc.
Not really I have naturally thick curly hair and I was in cosmo school n no girls wanted to work on me bc they didn’t know what to do
Wish mine taught all that! We were taught how to pass state board and that’s it! (When we would complain we were told “I only have to teach you how to pass, nothing else”) We only learned a cut/service if the person in our chair was getting it. So if you’re looking into cosmetology school make sure you do your research on the schools and go get a service done before applying so you can see how it really is.
God I learnt how to do curly hair types in UTAH, UTAH for FREE and I can do all hair types as a straight haired Asian....what school is this.
utah is ass tbh
Idk, most schools I've seen don't do curly hair it's actually rascist and robbery, 20k for fishtail braids that nobody is gonna come into the salon for?
The blow dry iron curl I love them
What I wasn't taught and why I quit... ethnic hair care/cuts/styles/braids. They refused to teach anything but Caucasian straight hair.
It's fucked up, there's some schools that teach it in depth though, my school even has a natural hair braider course
As a current Cos student, I can tell you girl you’ll be doing so many roller sets for state board prep it’s wild
Are roller sets used a lot in cosmology school? I roll my friends hair almost every day because I like 1940s styles but I rarely see anyone in real life have rolled hair (unless it’s like really really large Velcro rollers)
There's so much they don't teach you in cosmetology school. A majority of our knowledge comes from working in the industry. They teach you just enough to be safe and sanitary amd pass your state board testing. I expected more for that $20K.
I went to Empire, & I’m grateful that my class was diverse and a good mix of all different hair textures. I don’t know about other schools but we did all get a brown mannequin with natural hair. We learned how to do all different types of braids and how to use hot combs, and practiced a lot on each other. Everyone was willing to learn, ask questions and teach others about our own hair textures. We had so much fun, I really enjoyed our class. School can be a good time when you are learning about something that you’re interested in. I worked most of my career in the inner city and got a lot of experience with all different hair types. Now, 14 years into my career I can confidently cut and style anybody that sits in my chair. You never stop learning in this field, there is always a new style, trend or method that you can pick up on and grow your skill set.
I know a lot of hairdressers don’t know how to cut curly hair, and so many people have messed up my or my friends haircuts by cutting it wet. Do you do that?
At my school, (I go to a tech school for cosmetology) we learned how to cut ethnic hair in our level 1 year. I’m so glad I learned it and we did cut it dry. I wish other schools would teach that, it’s important to know to how dress all hair types and textures!
Probably not, there's a few schools that teach textured hair but the majority ignore it completely, which is both racist and absurd for the $20,000 price tag attached to school.
Ugh i remember this, i felt like am i ever going do old lady roller sets😂
Old ladies tip well 💯
I already know how to do all this I'd just be paying 20,000 for a licence 😢
Depends what state you're in, in some it's illegal to practice cosmetology without a licence, I've heard of some women doing braiding out of their house, and getting board members knocking at their door to bust them.
Where I went to school it costed about 10,000 total, including all my supplies, and because it was connected to a community college, I was able to get a Pell grant that paid for most of it, and the actual license isn’t very expensive at all, though at the current rate of inflation, I expect it will be 20,000 soon
Well a license proves your skill to potential clients. I wouldn't trust someone without job training claiming to know all these things to the core. It's assuring for your clients but also for you, to get your skills approved.
You're pretty good at it
What is your opinion on cosmetology school? Do you think it is worth the cost? I would love to learn those things but I think I could teach myself
I feel like sometimes schools are just a convenient place to learn things. I mean if it seems that all these skills you can learn by yourself with some videos then why go to school for it?
You can't legally make money doing people's hair without a license. That's why school is worth it
Just wish I could do a braiding class tbh 😅
Some schools like the one i go to offer a natural hair braider couse so you can get certified to do braids, twists, sew-ins etc
The blow dry iron curl👌😩
Omg I’m going to take cosmetology next year in school it’s gonna be so fun
this is literallly my dream
im so excited to learn more, i finished learning how to cut hair. in grade 11 thats when the perms and dying hair comes in, but we should learn how to handle all hair types. i never learned on curly hair
I’m just here for the song….reminds me of my 20s 😭
im so excited to start cosmetology school and to learn more about straight hair and coloring hair as well I know alot of people in the comment section are talking about textured hair which i feel like should be taught but its the opposite for me im excited to learn about difference hair types also i cant wait to help other students learn about texture or kinky hair i think that if we help each other the more will grow
The curly and rlly wavy girls are shaking in their boots (including me)
I want to stitch this with me just saying all I learned in beauty school was how to cry and be overwhelmed hahaha doing great cosmo of 7 years going on 8 and it’s a wonderful skill set to have❤ cheers
i imagine cutting on these heads feels sooooo different than a real head/hair? i kinda feel bad for not letting my husbands cousin practice on me but then again it took her a few years to get where shes at now 😅
It's a bit harder, especially with parting and sectioning the hair 💀💀 definitely don't let someone practice on you if you're not comfortable, i practiced on myself and family but also there's a risk your hair gets jacked up
That’s about everything I’ve learned so far minus braiding. We haven’t gotten there just yet, but it’s coming soon!
Cosmetology school low-key looks fun
Wait, this is so cool
This is one of my favourite songs
She made it look like her instructors taught her that. When really it was all learned through youtube 😅. Well, my instructors were bad at teaching so 🤷 my work was self taught
I went to cosmetology school every weekday minus summer vacation for almost two years, and we had to go SUPER in depth. We had to know the history and chemistry of everything we were doing, not just “how” but also “why.” Theorem and practicum and 3 desperate tests on each for EVERY little thing. It built a super strong knowledge base. We had a high drop out rate, but also a 100% state board pass rate.
I joined the program because after many years of college and doing years of an equivalent tech job in the military, I found myself growing increasingly isolated. I left the house less and less, and it kept getting harder to do so, so I wanted to switch careers into something that kept me social. All my friends from home were dead by the time I was 30, and my military friends are far flung, the ones that are left, so it had become “too easy” to work from home and avoid interacting with people.
I didn’t understand their “credit hour” structure, so I thought “8 months or so.” Boy was I wrong, lol. I’ve gone through two college degrees, but that cosmetology program was WAY more intense and required more than a degrees worth of school. In college, a full course load means maybe 8 hours or in school time a week, spread out. In my cosmetology school, it was 30 hours a week, and a daily commitment!
I love it, but know what you’re signing up for in ANY program.
Plus chemistry, ph levels, electricity, history of hair, dealing with different textures, manicures, pedicures, color corrections, facials, waxing, shampoos and relaxation techniques with your scalp massaging, business etiquette, relaxers, curl reform, extentions.... we learn alot. We have to have a certain amount of clocked in hours b4 we're even allowed to touch a client. But this is just the tip of the iceberg I learned SOOO much and still continue to add to my education it's one of those things if u dont stay with the times u could get left behind.
Nothing for naturally curly hair no wonder it takes me a miracle to find someone to cut my hair 😭
Find yourself some black hair salons they'll do you right
I hope u have big success
Notice how they don’t teach you how to cut textured hair. They only teach you how to cut one type of hair, straight. You can’t cut wavy, curly, or coily hair like straight hair. It won’t allow your curls to form and fall correctly, and will only cause frizz. Cosmetology schools need to include how to give a proper shape up and curly cut. Teach the students that there are different hair types and they require different cutting techniques than straight hair.
When going to a new hairdresser, and they immediately take out the flat iron, or bring out the water, I immediately get out of that chair bc I know my curls are about to get butchered and I’ll have to straighten my hair for the next few months just for it to look decent.
Yeah it's messed up that must schools don't, the reason i picked my school was because they're main focus is ALL hair textures. Def find a stylists that specializes in your curl pattern or go to a black salon
The problem i have with cosmetology school is that they dont teach you how to play with all tectures to the same comfort degree. What solidified my decision on going was when my friend told me they dont actually teach you everything and you learn more from friends, youtube and salons once accepted. You also only get your license in one area. You have to pay 20k if you want to get your license in coloring. Another 10k if you want license to cut hair, another 10k if you want to add license for neutral colors and again for styling. This is if you already paid 20k for the first area you choose to learn in. After. That you have to pay for each additional one. Idk if i explained that well but its fcked up in my state. I know it may be different somewhere else. WA btw. I was gonna join 5 years ago but thats how the school explained it to me and then i tried again after covid and they had mot improved. Its too exclusive for me. I have 3b-c hair and i dont need to hear people tell me i could do my hair better when they dont even know my hair. NAILS! Nails are worth going for! As far as learning hygiene and building a customer base. Its much cheaper too and you dont have to pay separately to learn gel or acrylic they cover both. But again. They lack in tips and tricks.
That definitely doesn’t sound right at all. It should be 20k for cosmetology license that allows you to do coloring, styling, cute, relaxers, perms, facials, and nails. Barbering would be haircuts with a straight razor/ color, perms no nails. And a manicurist is nails. Estheticians are a separate thing. Either they didn’t explain it right or they’re trying to screw you.
That school is an actual scam, 20k for cosmo license includes cutting coloring etc, most schools unfortunately don't teach textured hair but you can find good ones, sorry you had to experience that scam of a school.
My cosmetology only taught us how to pass the state board. I was in no way shape or form able to pursue a job in hair color/cutting. You get more out of an apprenticeship. I ended up sticking to nails instead of hair.
Apprenticeships can get messy, it's best to find a school that preps you for all that stuff, its ridiculous that it isn't the default
I’m going to cosmetology school lol I’m so excited
I want to learn there so BADD but I don’t know how much it costs as well as schools like that near where I live😭
@@pooowater My mom went to a school where they learn to do nails and she has a particular school in mind and I might be able to learn there but I don’t know at what age I can go, I turn 13 in July and it’s my summer break
I remember doing this in high school!
it’s funny how perms for non textured hair is to get curly but textured hair is to get straight when using a perm
This is why when I go to the salon not a single person knows how to do my hair texture and they tell me they can’t do any hair style to my hair lol
Those highlights scared me because it seems like it would have a not smooth highlight 😢
*Those DIMENSIONAL CAPS hurt more than a motherf...!!!!* 😭 Luckily they're not trendy anymore, but it was great that you were taught about them. There's still people that get them done and the more you know, the better! ❤ Btw, that blow-dry with the curls!! 👏💯👏💯
Cosmetology school is designed to teach you the most basic stuff that’s on The practical and written test to get your license. And when I when to school we did learn some stuff about textured hair . But it’s up to you to get your own classes and do further education and research on how to style and cut natural hair .
It also depends on the region where your located and the state you live in to what will be on your practical and written .
ima junior and im taking cosmetology 1 and will finish the class in my senior year w a the full license it's super fun:)
Figure 8 curls will forever haunt me I stg 😭😂
Im rlly exited to go to costm school : )
I would enjoy it everytime my friend needed a volunteer for her school stuff cos I would get my hair done for free😂❤
You will need to watch videos on curly hair cuts as it's totally different than straight hair and the way you were taught.
I hatedddd the thermal curls on short hair with the marcel handle 😂
i think they should also teach how to handle. curly hair because a big population of people of curly hair and not enough hair stylist know how to do it
Ive been thinking about this for years now
god i cant wait until cosmetology school
I’m in cosmetology school right now in high school and so far we’ve only learned a few braids but we have 2 years to go so wish me luck🫶🏼✌🏼
She forgot .. nails, facials, makeup, chemistry, physiology and anatomy. The actual education that makes you a master in your craft. There's so much to becoming a cosmetologist it's not just about making people look good. Licensed 8 years going strong 💅
She’s just showing what she learned recently you learn in sections
As a new stylist, I can tell you that my school I didn’t learn half of this. Not even clipper cuts.
I wish basic edge ups were part of what they teach you there because getting an appointment at the barber for my 10 year old son and boyfriend is annoying and I just want to go to the salon and get it done fast and easy😩
The crazy part is the braiding portion is so short and the perms aka perminant wave and rods/ roller set module is SOOOO long I hated it oh but the bleaching and coloring mod was my favorite 😅
I remember when i got my first perm at 15. I loved my curls so much but it made my hair fall out a lot. To this day i still shed too much hair than i did before i got the perm 10 years ago.
People say they dont teach about textured hair but i go to school in GA where a lot of our clients have textured hair i know how to do relaxers, box braids, knotless braids, 2 strand twists, silk press, proper detangling and care techniques and more so dont think we dont learn something about it, learning textured hair comes with experience and the chance to work on the actual hair. Textured hair mannequins are just fine hair mannequins with curly hair texture its much different than irl textured hair.
Cosmetology school teaches basic technique and santation its up to you to learn what you want to know how to do. Shes basically showing what we need to know to take the license exam which is what they teach you
ur gorgeous i want to look like you🙏🏻🙏🏻😻😻
The last wig got some split ends 😂
The stylists that she works with do style and treat textured/curly hair, personally I wouldnt think she'd have to specify what types of hair she treats..
Unfortunately it's important to specify because most schools don't teach it, if you have tight curls you cannot walk into any hair salon they will jack you up, I've heard of ppl going to cosmetology school and the recruiters saying how diverse it is, and then not teaching them how to do their own hair cause it's curly, or not having makeup dark enough for their skin.
