    I have wanted to do this as a career for years. I've been scared though because I'm close to 30 and in a job that realistically is double the salary I would likely make starting out as an esthetician on average salary. I also live in an area where there aren't many schooling options. But I really want to do it anyway because I'd like to do something I actually enjoy! Appreciate the honest video!

      I don’t think any of us want to wake up and think “ what if “ if you can afford a little pay cut for a bit, go for it. There’s sooo many faces out there, Sam and I can’t do it alone!! 😛good luck ! If you have any questions, we are always here. Xoxo

      @@VivaVitalityMedSpa I’m going to definitely be perfecting my craft before trying to do a lot stuff lol... but one thing I’m kinda confused about and maybe you guys can talk about is classes after school? Online classes? Is it worth it to have a niche or know a little bit of everything? What about working for someone else before going solo? If I think of something else I’ll posted in the comments. Thank you guys!!!

    I feel intimidated going- for some reason I have always felt like what if I don't learn everything the way I should or if Im not smart enough for Esthetician School.

      @VivaVitalityMedSpa  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for watching! We made this video so people wouldn’t feel intimidated by switching careers or trying something new. You are smart enough for Esthetican school!! As long as you enjoy working with the public and skincare, that’s a must ! There’s tons of books out there to read while in school. You certainly won’t learn it all in school , just go and get the basics !

      @@VivaVitalityMedSpa well the whole working with skincare makes me feel excited- but I don’t know how I can decide if it is for me considering I haven’t done it before .. but I love making people feel good, I love knowing the idea of anti-aging & it looks romanticized being an esthetician haha I know like every job it has it’s cons- but I want to study something ..
      For medical esthetician- how do I get there? Do I take the basics Esthetician 600 hour course & from there- can I go back to school to further my studies so I get paid more/know more ? Or from the basics go straight to small courses & get certificates like that ? Hopefully you can make a video hehe😊❤️

    So what’s the point, if it doesn’t make you money. So I can expect to spend a lot of money on school, but I’m not going to make anything? The only reason I’d want to be an esthetician is because I thought it would be better income than the two jobs I have already. So if you want to be an esthetician don’t do it for the money basically?

    • @VivaVitalityMedSpa
      @VivaVitalityMedSpa  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think the point is, don't expect to make a ton of money right out of school. There is a lot of other competition. You have to learn to hustle and to keep on learning new techniques etc. It's a wonderful career and you can make a good living, we just are telling others to not ASSUME right when you're done with school, you'll be making 6 figures. Now, if you get a good handle on social media you may be able to sky rocket that way.

      I am not sure how that works as far as your license transferring! Call your local school for esthetics and see if they can assist you! If anything it’s a very short and sweet course . You already know your stuff so it will be a piece of cake to get a piece of paper. Let us know how you do! Welcome to Florida. 🥰

      Getting your bachelors is a huge accomplishment!! It isn’t necessary to have a Bachelors degree to be an Esthetician, however, anytime you can learn more and grow more the better it is for personal growth.
