@@amandajaime_29 What school did you go to?
I was just thinking that too
2 years later, i agree
Yes!!!!
As an instructor for esthetics, Estie school only teaches you the very minimum/ basics so you can get your 600 hours (in California) to take your exam for your license. You will NOT learn everything or be a professional Estie until you find out what you specialize in for yourself. Getting those certificates are so important to go into depth. Or hop on board with waxing at a spa or salon get your hands on experience as soon as you can
Do you have to take math courses?
Just signed up from school. I get a kit which includes an iPad an everything else I need, and it will take 5-7 months in ohio. I’m really excited! And your videos are getting me pumped
How’s it going so far? I start in two weeks and it should take 4 1/2 months, super nervous!
Same! I sign my contract tomorrow I’m nervous 😬
Girl where in Ohio Bc same and I’m about to go in and ask questions tomorrow!!
The program is 8 months in Chicago no IPad but a kit
Which school in ohio?
I’m in New York, registered for school last week and class begins next month. NY requires 600 hours and tuition is close to $10k. I’m super anxious but very excited and just ready to learn. This video was very informative. Thank you 😊
How’s it going so far?? I start in 2 weeks and supper nervous:(
@@ashleycocis6122 my last week of Theory ends tomorrow. I've learned so much and am excited to start clinic! It's so worth it doll. Good luck!
Hey, I’m in NY and I think we may be in the same school. Do you mind sharing your experience? I start in two months
Im having trouble deciding what school I want to go to 😭
@@kamillagutierrez9006 I ended up going to New York School of Esthetics in white plains. Mostly because they offered more cert's with their program than the schools in the city. Many schools in the city had microdermabrasion as an advanced course but here it was included. But be advised due to Covid we weren't allowed to use the hot towel caddies or steamers. The schools in the city seemed to have done so though by conducting weekly covid rapid tests I also went there because I wanted to have the freedom of using my car.
i love your honesty when you spoke about how your skin will look going through school and getting practiced on, I also love how you gave that lovely glimpse of hope... that after school, we’ll have the knowledge to create our own skin care routine to have clean clear glowing skin ✨
I’m so happy I was able to help and give you some insight 💕
I love HONEST reviews! I was looking into Cosmetology but I realized I'm more excited about Esthetics. It's a shame you had to start off your experience feeling outcasted. No one should ever feel that way. I worry because I've looked into it before and it's all high school kids and I'm in my 40's and all I hear about is the "drama." I do want my focus to be on clients my own age and older. But I'm afraid of how I'll be treated by other students while I'm trying to learn. It was the same for me in college.
💯
Oh no! I’m 19 .. 18 when I started and in my class there is like a equal amount of 18-25 and 25+ we even had a 60 year old woman in our class as well and I genuinely enjoyed it! It was lots of knowledge and you really develops relationships w ppl 10 yrs older or even younger than you. I think it’s a beautiful thing. There’s nothing wrong with learning because that’s what we’re all there for. And we all are here to help one another!
I’m 54 and just entering the esthetician program!! Go for it!
I love it! I will start in the next month and I was scared of this new world! Thanks for encouraging me ❤️
Anytime! Good luck on your journey 🥰
How did it go?! Are you loving your career?!
I just finished my program! And I felt the same way going in. When I started the class, they were on chapter 10 and by the time I finished we hadn’t gone through the whole book so I had to do them on my own. So I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt this way!
Is there a way to get in at the beginning?
I’m 35 and thinking about a career change to esthetician school. This video is really helpful!!
I absolutely love it. I’m glad I can help
Girl!! Same!! Literally same. I turn 36 this year and I’m ready for a serious career change. Good luck!
Me too! I’m currently a massage therapist at a spa. And I really want to add to my services ❤️.
Guys I’m 39 and just started on 5/29.
I’m 39 , turning 40 in a week and 3 weeks in with esthetician school. I like it. I started when class with starting chapter 4. California is 600 hours
your skin is so clear. Thank you so much for the advice! Loved this video it was so informative.
Thank you! So happy your enjoyed the video 🥰
I’m going back to school, I’m almost 27 and this was so helpful! Thank you(: I’m on a waitlist for esthetics beauty school in the fall.
Starting school in September super nervous but excited and eager to start this new journey and take on a career shift. I have my bachelors in Hospitality but skin care has always been something I’ve gravitated towards. Everyday I’m praying for the best!
I am starting this new journey coming from the dental world. I started out taking a couple lash tech classes...now I’m interested in the whole beauty world and becoming licensed!!! Thank you!!!
Same here! I’ve been a medical assistant for 6 years. But now that I’m a lash tech for a few months I am now going esti school this month 💞
The dental field sucks and is so underpayed!! Might go to esthetician school in April I love doing lashes and other beauty services !!
How’s it going I’m leaving dentistry to start school in July! So overworked and so underpaid
I also was a dental assistant for 15 years thinking about going to school to be an esthetician doing freelance makeup now just want to offer more and do lash extensions.
I’m really looking forward to lashes, makeup & body contouring but it’s good to know different things to set yourself apart. I was at a school for 3 months but ended up withdrawing because I wasn’t learning anything besides facials & waxing within that time frame they was literally just going day by day. Didn’t even get my kit the teacher was mixing products to use. My teacher ended up getting covid so that really pushed me to get out. I’m now deciding to go back but now not to have high expectations but to at least get my money’s worth. I really love beauty & know I’ll enjoy working in this field 🥰
I'd love to hear an update! How did it go? I'm mostly interested in makeup as well because I want to do bridal, did they ever end up focusing on it?
@@estherhinds6314 Since then I went to another esthetician school last year but financially it was too much for me to deal with at the time. I’m deciding to go back after I move. Right now I’m focused on practicing lash extensions so I can at least have my business going by the time I do go back. Good luck with everything!
@@Kailynkaior Hooray for moving forward! Good luck!
I'm all ears with you! I start phase 2 next week 😬 which means I start taking clients... My program was $12k! But we do dermaplaning, lash training, and get a kit. Please keep sharing your thoughts! 💕
Congratulations! At least you got a kit lol and I can’t wait to hear about your journey. Welcome to the estie world! 🎊🎉
@@amandajaime_29 Thank you!!!
Where did you attend?
@@MissOrDissSlots Clary Sage
@@Simplyplanning is this in Tulsa Oklahoma ?
I’m in Tampa & almost done w my program 😜! From my understanding there’s no such thing as a medical esthetician, they’re just esthetician’s with other certifications. But I’ve seen some school in Tampa that offer both programs as well
Congratulations! And yes I agree. A Medical esthetician is almost not real lol. I know people that went through the program and once they were out in the real world they said medical esthetician jobs really don’t exist
it's the same thing essentially! esthetician works in spa aesthetician works in medical spa
My classes start Dec. 1, I am excited yet worried, I am 59changing from truck driving to learning to be an esthetian. Hope I can find work, no client tell.
How’s is going so far?
Gigi Gutierrez well I changed to a better school I am getting I feel a much better education they are a private school small, I have applied for a scholarship. My start date changed to 2/8/21. I have peace about this school and am very confident. Thank you so very much for asking!!! I am blown away that you have asked I love you for that! I feel so blessed! Thank you! 💕💕💕💕💕
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I’m going in and not knowing anything 😭
Areej A lol everyone starts at 0, no need to worry
I’ll be starting classes in the spring 2021. I missed the October 2020 fall classes here in Connecticut. I can’t wait. For me becoming an Esthetician would mean a lot. I’m looking to help those whom are challenged with skin conditions as I was. I am a Lupus survivor, so I know the struggles. Would you be willing to share the book your professor gave you and if it can be purchased? I think this would be so helpful🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽I keep a SelfCare/SkinCare journal. It helps me keep track of things I’ve used, what works and what hasn’t. Thank you for this video👑❤️I love when a influencer is open & honest. You are appreciated😘
Congratulations on your journey! And I know you’ve come a long way, I’m not sure if the book she gave can be purchased because it was mostly handouts that she created part of her curriculum. I’m sure your teacher would have something to give you once you’re in school. Like I said have the basics down and most of the learning is after you graduate. I’m glad you enjoyed the video 🥰
what school did you attend in ct ?
@@Jaworld98 Asnuntuck Community College
@@justaznyce thank you congratulations on your achievements
@@Jaworld98 You’re so very welcomed🥰And thank you Sis♥️👑♥️😘
i literally start school tomorrow and feel better about going after watching your video 😭🥺 blessings to you!!
Good luck!! I just made the decision to drop out of college and enroll in esthetician school and I’m really looking forward to it :))
Hey how was it?? I start in 2 weeks.. and do u really need a certificate in every field if you’re already licensed?
Thank you for your time and suggestions! I'll be starting school early next year. Very anxious and excited to start my aesthetics education.
You’re very welcome! Good luck on your journey 🥰
1st of all your voice is so calming. I’m a new subscriber and love watching your videos 🥰 starting esthetician school next month and I am nervous!!!!! 😩
RobMob Tv lol thank you! I’m glad you enjoy the content. And congratulations on your journey 💕
You made me so much more confident and excited about applying. Thank you so much!
I'm getting ready to start school in florida as well in a couple months and I am so grateful for your opinions and your tips! Thank you so much!
Girl this is sooo trueee I totally agree I’m going through it now … I’m in South Fl. I am going for full specialist nails and esthetician. Honestly I would say do not go in with high expectations. We currently have no official instructor. My temporary teacher name is Ms B aka Ms Brandy she is really good I wish she would stay and teach but she is leaving
I start class next month! I’m so nervous. I’m in Texas. It’s gonna take me 30 weeks like 6 months I believe. I’m super nervous and I’m not a good test taker but I’m praying for a good outcome!
You got this !!! Im in Texas too & have the same fear 💕
You got this. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!!! Good LUCK!!!
If you don’t mind me asking what school did you go to? How was it? And have you found a job yet since graduating? I’m from Texas too and after years of thinking about it I’ve finally started looking into schools but idk where to even start looking.
I’m in Houston and I’m interested in taking the course. How did it go for you??
Im in Missouri I start in 2 weeks. Its 10mo PT, did yu have to pay for every certificate? How did it go for yu?
That schedule sounds crazy! I just started in May and we started together thank goodness! Totally spot on with the video.
This is soooooo helpful!!! I’ve been curious as to what the overall experience is. 💛
jojo dee I’m happy you enjoyed it 🥰
I’m 65 and considering starting the class in Spring. Is this field senior friendly? Honest feedback is what I am looking for.
Thank you in advance and for your video.
Absolutely! It’s funny because my mom is planning to work with me once she retires in a couple years. But you have so much to offer in this industry. My clientele is mainly younger women but if you can tap into the “anti aging” world that is where the money is
Yes ! In my class we had an older man ! And he fit right in lol ... do it 💓 you got this .
Thanks for the positive vibes...I'm over 40, thinking about it too...Life doesn't stop!..lol
Yesss one of my favorite classmates is 60! I’m 19! We are soo close and we always help each other out! Don’t be scared 🤗
I'm going at 43! 65 is the new 40s babe, you got this!!
I am a guy who is planning to be a esthetician and watching your your video made me much more confident and show me how it is in real life and what I would expect and everything will be all right just have to push myself and believe that I can do it I subscribe to you I would love to learn more stuff from you.
I am actually thinking about becoming an Esthetician, and I'm going to Esthetics School Soon, so i was really happy to watch this video and get a lot of tips.
I love this video so inspiring, I’m actually starting my esthetics classes I’m January and I’m so excited 🥰
Your book looks very different than mine... I started back in August graduating I’m May 💕
Your school was very different as well. I would’ve never thought that they’d separate your certificates from your regular classes, or a rotation schedule like that. Florida only requires 260hours?? GA is 1,000 hours. Very different experience.
i really love how you mentioned how there are also guys in this field as I was a little curious about that too!!! so excited to enroll!
Thank you so, so much ❤️
I’m enrolling in a few days to start in June and I’m so excited!
How's it going for you? I'm starting this June 😊
This video is actually helpful thank you unlike other videos I watched before this where girls talk and talk and don't help with any real questions
I'm so excited now! I start next month & I was so nervous. I'm pretty sure imy gonna be the oldest in my class, but I'm ok with that! Thanks so much for sharing!
Your skin is amazing & looks so clear!! I would so go to you for my facials, you definitely know what youre doing!
I am finally realizing, because of all of the time that I spend researching ingredients, and facials etc I realize firstly is in line with esthetician and then medical esthetician, and secondly I will have a lot of knowledge if I start doing this! I really am considering it! I am a single mom and put myself through computer software programming college but I am realizing that this is more of a passion for me. I also love doing make up so maybe I could take some classes on the side or get a makeup training somewhere and just do what I do. The only thing holding me back is finances. I am wondering.. what do most of the estheticians make on average, or what do yall make? Obvi if that is too personal I TOTALLY get it. But I am single now. I PLAN TO STAY single for awhile lmao. So I have to make sure I am able to support my kiddo and myself well :)
thank you so much for this video! you explained everything so nice, I'm planning on going to school for esthetics!
I think I know what school you’re talking about. My school was on rotation too. I was thinking about going to your school for laser but driving back and wroth from Orlando was going to be to much. I think that it was terrible to pay for the paper when you paid for tuition. I was so glad to leave my school. They had higher hours and FA. I had high expectations and got whatever.
Exactly. I feel like these schools aren’t regulated and you get mediocre education for a lot of money
I love the way you give us sooo much information!! It’s very appreciated 💖
Very informative video thank you! No one ever talks about how your clients are your peers! That was golden info.
I really enjoyed this. Practicing on my own skin and it's sensitive 😂😅 didn't even cross my mind
Thank you for this ❤made night I am moving charleston South Carolina soon be esthetician can’t 😊
I find it strange that Florida doesn't have an all encompassing "Esthetician license" that covers all those things you mentioned you needed certificates for. Here in Minnesota we have a 600 hour esthetics course which covers facials, basic extractions, facial and body scan focus massage, eyelash extensions and full body waxing. Our 500 hour advanced practice esthetics course which covers everything else - like advanced extractions, electrical modalities, chemical peels, dermaplaning, etc. I was lucky to graduate at a time when they first started the AP Esthetician License so I was able to grandfather without having to do an extra 500 hour course. It's interesting how different each state is, but it was great to hear your experience in school!
Yes Florida has the least amount of hours and training for esthetics. I really wish it was different. But I love hearing experiences from other estheticians so thank you for sharing. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Hey I’m in Cali and I went to a beauty school to become an esthetician. Unfortunately I was unable to work on men I hope to do so in the future . I’ve only been out of school for about a month now . I still feel like I left without having as much knowledge as I would have liked . Was not able to learn how to do chemical peels , eye lash extensions, microdermabrasion etc . So I will learn some things on my own . Overall I’m glad I went through and finished the program .
Going to tour a beauty school today thank you for advice I also live in Florida so nervous but ready for change as a stay at home mom I do have this as my own reachable goal 🥅 🙏🏽❤️
Today was my 3rd day of class & ur correct about immediate hands on !!! My fellow classmates started at the same time (12 of us) 600hrs, 4 days week 5-9pm part time was only available atm!! We received a kit a few shirts & jacket (have to wear all white, scrubs 🤍) School was 10 grand i Appiled for financial aid, which I have to start paying back a small Percentage, 6 months after graduation 😌 $500 I paid in cash for $100 application & $400 for something I can’t remember at the moment, but either way I am beyond 😊 excited! Although your video started off negative I’m glad you remained positive 👏🏽 & got your certificate & shared with us , Very inspiring ! Oh by the way I live in Connecticut, atm, I plan to open spa in Florida near future 💕
Thank you so much for your videos!! I will hopefully start school in August and this just got me so excited!! Love your energy, so gorgeous 💖💖
I just want to thank you 😊 i am grateful for all the beautiful girls like you that get us girls inspired and makes us happy to hear the stories and how to become Confident about our selfs. I love your video and thank you again.
It’s so crazy how SHORT Florida is, compared to Alabama where we have to have 1000+ hours and it’s close to a year long.
I’m so mad lol. And their hours are insane here. Legit like 8-10 hours a day, every day. Whyyyy is it so long in that case lol. I wanna go back to FL and get my license 😅
Thank you for the information! I'm currently a nail technician and im thinking about going back to school but im so nervous about it
Thank you so much for sharing this wealth of information. I’m considering a career change, my present company is offering a separation package and I’m thinking about it , however, it’s terrifying to take that leap because I’m 54 yrs old and i would be leaving a great job with great benefits. I’ve always been interested in an esthetician career and i have visited schools in the past for information, thanks again for sharing your experience.
This video/information was very helpful. I’m struggling because I work and trying to locate a school after my work hours is tough.
Your video helps me be calm about this. Kinda freaking out.
Sooo helpful!! In Florida too... just started my first week of esthetics school!! I love it ❤
I’m so happy you’re enjoying it ☺️
What school in Florida are you attending??
this video was seriously so helpful! thank you so much i’ve been looking for a video like this!
I'm so glad you enjoyed! and you're welcome
I m in Tampa too and it was meant for me to see this today ❤ thank you for being so detailed
You are so welcome
Thank you Queen I really appreciate all your insight 🙏🏾💙👑
I moved to Texas from Fl. We need 750 hrs here but they don’t separate certifications it’s all in one which is pretty cool based on what you’re saying. I was wanting to do it in FL But now I’m kinda happy I waited🤍
Looveee this video!! So glad I found you, thanks for the tips🧚🏾🧡
I start on Monday and found this very helpful! Wish me luck 😄
How is it so far?
@@gabbie8205 I actually graduated from beauty school in march. i'd say definitely do a lot of research before picking a beauty school because a lot of places don't want to actually teach you and/or are very outdated in what they teach. i had a decent experience with the one i went to.
i’m starting in january to pursue my dream of becoming an esthetician 🥰
new subbie 🥰
L P congratulations! Keep me updated on your journey ☺️
Mandaa Jaime thank youuu! & i sure will 🤗 also congratulations to you on becoming a licensed esthetician 👏
I'm in fort myers, florida! My experience was very similar to yours. Great video!
What school did you go to?
I start school in March! Thank you so much for this video
I wish you lived in Alabama. Even though they require 1,000 hours (8-9 months) to complete training in esthetics. At our school, microdermabrasion, derma plane, chemical peel, HydraFacial, Jet Clear, waxing, makeup application, basic facials (acne, anti-aging), electro current, brow and lash tinting, and more are INCLUDED. Certificates are given for most machine trainings. New students start in phase one, then after they complete 300 hours, they test into phase two. That way you're not confused sitting in a room with students that have been there. You also have the option to take advanced classes such as lash extension, electrolysis, microblading, micro needling, permanent makeup, paramedical tattooing, and more. No more than 20 students per class and they also offer cosmetology, manicure, and massage therapy! Your kit (professional grade Dermalogica products) and books are included in tuition. It's a small private school but doing amazingly big things!
....what school is this?! I'm looking for one to apply to!!!!
Really enjoyed this I start school literally tmrw & I’m so excited
I’m excited for you ☺️ how did the first day go?
Hows is it going for you ?
Glad I came across your channel , I’m just now looking into this field. Great video… btw you resemble my auntie 😭❤️
Great video! I’m from tampa to and enrolling in esthetician school🥳🥳🥳🥳
I enjoyed listening to your perspective! So glad I found your channel :)
Thank you for watching 🥰
This video was super helpful!!! Thanks for the tips! 😊
Learning ingredients is gonna help so much in the long run! Thanks for the tips Manda, can’t wait for your next video ❤️ stay safe & stay blessed ✨ btw I had no idea that you’re black, are you mixed?
Thank you so much for supporting my channel ☺️ and I’m Puerto Rican and Trinidadian. Stay safe as well 🥰
I start November 3rd Nd I’m really excited. Thanks for the tips ❣️❣️❤️
You’re welcome! Congratulations on your new career 🥰
I start this coming monday😀 thanks for the advice😉
Jessi Garcia anytime! Good luck on your journey ☺️
great video! just subbed 💓 I start esti school in november & I can’t waitttt!
So excited for you! You’ll love it 💕
Im in an esthetics course rn and its so much different than you describe. Im in Cali tho. So same thing about the 2 months having another group come in but they separate us by days. So freshman together and seniors together. So everyone starts from the beginning. But theres cosmotology and nail techs and barbers in this school too. My esthetics course is 600 hours and we dont need to pay for every certificate.
Hi! I live in cali too and it sounds like a school that I’m interested in.
I start in 2 weeks my program is 10mo cause PT. Hopefully i won’t have to pay for every certification i will be attending beauty school in Missouri. How was your course?
I'm really thinking about starting classes im currently pressuring a radiography degree but i feel like I need to follow my dream im so nervous this video definitely helped thanks love!
I love the video thanks so much , I start esthetician school in July 🥰🎉
I want to go to school for this but when covid first started I was just finishing cosmetology school the whole zoom thing near the end was a struggle im just waiting for covid to be over with because I rather learn from experience in person then online through a zoom call
I am going in April 26th for Esthetics, spa management & electrolysis ☺️
I'm scheduled to start in 7 weeks approx. But im still waiting to see if my loan was approved even though its been over a week since I was told I'd be called. Thank you for the video, it was helpful!👍
Its almost $9,000 for mine, 750 hrs and 7 months to do. Im hoping it covers everything. I go in a couple weeks to talk to the instructors. I'm nervous, i want this though so bad!❤
Congratulations you got thiss, how was it? I start in 2 weeks😩😩so nervous but so readyyy, its 10 months 750 hrs PT in Missouri
Ugh my program is $15k but it’s almost 700 hours so I guess it makes sense, wish I could’ve found a school for less
I think of it as, the more practice/experience the better? It does sound like a lot of time and money, but time is money!Good thing is you can start applying for positions soon after you’ve completed the courses and when they ask how long you went to school for, it’ll give a great impression!
This was so informative and helpful! Thank you.❤
Thank you so much for this! It was really helpful and informative!
Great video !!! This was extremely informative . I’m thinking this field is for me 🙂🙏🏾
So I know nothing about skin care and I have too get my esthetician too be able to get my lash extensions technician... what should I do ?
As long as you pass the esthetician course, you never have to look at skin care again lol I wish they were separate because one thing has nothing to do with the other. But in order to practice legally in most states you need an esthetics license
Ooh wow good advice and so pretty 🤩… school is cheaper in Florida …Chicago is higher and you get a kit
Thank you so much. Starting in a month. Very helpful
You got to Remember we’re not dermatologist either 😅
Dang that's crazy y'all only had to go to school 2 1/2 months & 260 hours wow I should've been down there lol I'm in Atlanta & we're in school for 1000 hours & 10 months 😩☹😫 I get out in November but I'm ready to work
So scared to start school 😭 I have social anxiety yikes
Thank youuuu for this 💕
Just a quick question . What does an esthetician coarse really cover ? Like what are all the types of things you Learn as an esthetician? Is make up included in that ?
Iam finishing my first semester in one week. It’s been wild so far 😂. I’m ready for the next semester 💪🏽
Any advice? 😭
Congratulations
My dental assistant classes were the same way. I started in the middle of the program and many students were leaving when I was just starting. It wasn't a good experience at all and very pricey.
I really enjoyed ur video...may God continue to bless you!!
Here in GA, it's 1000 hours in order to take the state board exam and get licensed as an esthetician. My school is 9 months, and I'm paying $4500 out of pocket.
Excellent info, thanks for your insight.
