To become a beautician/make-up artist, would you have to go to College?

My dream job is to either be a make-up artist or a beautician, if I tend to go to college, what would be the difference to when I don't go to college?To become a beautician/make-up artist, would you have to go to College?
Well not really but you do have to go to institutes ans schools. There, you get lessons and courses about colors, beauty, products, mixtures, skin types, combination etc.. Below I places a link to a very good makeup school as an example for you. hope it helps.To become a beautician/make-up artist, would you have to go to College?
No college. You need to go to Cosmetology School, If you don't get licensed, Then you can't work in a Salon, or anywhere in the beauty Industry. In some states, They don't require you to have a license for Make up Artistry, But it is nice to take a few courses(Which, usually would be Esthetics, if you want to be licensed.) to help you out some and get certified.
In my dream you don't go to the college .You can find it in the net
you have qualifications if you go to college, and your more likely to get hired if you have them :)
Not much, that's what beauty schools are for.
I have two daughters who went through Aveda School.

Many companies or should I say, almost all companies are requiring applicants to have finished college. You should take your college just in case you didn't achieve that job. Like a back-up plan. There are courses for being a beautician but I think they're only side courses.
To be a makeup artist, the proper name is Estitician, at least in CA, and you won't only learn how to apply some types of makeup, but you also learn how to do manicures/ pedicures, and waxing.





Cosmetologist (beautician) requires a bit more time studying, and with that you learn a bit of everything, including makeup application, and perhaps the basics of waxing/nails, but you're mostly focusing on hair.





Search on Yahoo! or wherever you usually search, and type in, ';Beauty Schools in ______';. They should come up with a listing of surrounding beauty schools. Beauty Colleges are vocational schools, not actual universities where you can earn say, a degree in criminology, unless your local community college offers those classes at the college. Either way, it is still a vocational career.





Best of luck!
you go to cosmetology school...like the Salon Professional Academy or something...there are tons of schools for that, but it's a technical college type deal...
You do not need a degree of any kind to become a beautician or makeup artist. A good beautician school (usually about 1 year) would help but not a requirement. What you need to be very successful in this field is talent and 'on the job training'. Plenty of beautician schools offer graduation certificates which also can be attained by attendance on a part time basis. This is a great idea. You attend school possible 2 days or nights per week. And you work as an apprentice beautician on a part time basis. You get schooling in the field and experience in the field. Give it a shot. Best of Luck.
well you will have a better chance if you go into a college


but there are a lot of cosmetology/beautician schools out there


its better if you do because one day if you have your own bisnuess it looks better and more people will come


also you might learn new techniques

My sister is in Cosmotology school and wants to be a make up artist...?

What are her chances of getting a great job and loving the career?My sister is in Cosmotology school and wants to be a make up artist...?
It depends on her talent and where she wants to live. She could go work in the movie industry or specialize in weddings and do quite well. Right now, is not a good time to be in the field but maybe that will change fast if the economy improves. My hairdresser says that business is down 40% at her salon because of the economy.





Anyway, your sister does seem like a natural artist and she may not be happy doing anything else even if it pays better. She might be one of those people who enjoy beings around people and making them look better and feel better about themselves. If she were my sister, I would advise her to develop other skills while in cosmotology school such as skincare, hair, and/or nails. There is some money to be made in doing acne facials and microdermabrasion right now even if that is not her favorite thing to do. And good skin comes before good makeup.





PS: My niece recently chose not to go to college and she is in beauty school right now. It was heart-breaking for my sister who had her heart set on having her number 1 daughter go to college. But we all realize that this has been her dream since she was a little girl.My sister is in Cosmotology school and wants to be a make up artist...?
When I was in 7th grade I did a research project and my topic was cosmetology and it seems like a really fun job, but they don't make the good money. . . they make enough to live off of but that's about all. And It shouldn't be that hard for her to get a job, just as long as she passes cosmetology school.
She could have a good job if she starts working at salons and getting her name out there. If she's really good with her stuff, then she can even start her own business (but working at a high/well known-salon can also open doors for her as well). As long as she stays and school and gets as much experience as she can, more doors will open for her.

You should check with your local beauticians and cosmetic technicians. THey should be a wealth of information. Also contact your local cosmetology school in your area. Good Luck

    I'm hoping someone will have some advice on what steps to take in order to become a make-up artist. I'm looking for schools in new york right now, however I'm not quite sure which ones are reputable. Helllp???





    thanksHow to become a make-up artist?
    I don't know anything about schools in NY cause I'm from the down under but to become a make- up artist you probably need training. I think you can either work with a make -up artist and they teach you everything or you go to school that has the course. Assiting a make- up artist would probably be more fun then having to go to school for it.How to become a make-up artist?
    As a makeup artist myself I know that the best way is to get training is through a school. I'm an Aussie but I can tell you that one of the best Makeup Schools in the US are the Joe Blasco Colleges. There is one in LA, one in Orlando Florida and one is opening soon in New York. Not sure when.

    Its free if you do it in college. But you need to pay for your kit. Try the london college of fashion.

    Do you have to have a qualification to be a make-up artist, or can you just get ';on the job'; training?

    First you need to have a passion for makeup. then you can get practice using friends, faily, yourself. watch youtube videos on how to do certain makeup looks example petrilude and makeupgeektv are some good channels.


    on the job training can also help. if one wants to learn more, ten going for training is definitely good. most makeup artists i know are self taught though.Do you have to have a qualification to be a make-up artist, or can you just get ';on the job'; training?

    no, not at all...in cosmetology courses you dont get much makeup, you are only required to complete abour 10 hrs of makeup...its not as detailed. One of my friends went to make up school first, then she decided to take cosmetology. :) it's up to you. =]

    quite hoenstly babes i have worked as a makeup artist and have never done a formal qualification.talent is more important.the only basics you need to know are what colours suit people and how to apply.this info can be found in beauty magazines,websites or from asking another makeup artist.i wouldnt pay a huge sum to get a qualification.and there isnt a lot of business for this market which is why i dont do it anymore though this may be different in other areas.alot of colleges in britain actually do this course for free.so have a scout around xx

    What do you need to study to become a make-up artist?

    To be a cosmetologist requires as much study of the muscles, bones, and nerves as first year nursing student. Be ready to study hard.





    Cosmetology is the study of hair and skin.





    Specializing in makeup is really a hard thing to do. Requires hours and hours of practice.





    Visit a Cosmetology (Beauty) School near where you live. They are always looking for more students and will give you a grand tour.What do you need to study to become a make-up artist?
    go to a cosmotology school that specifys in makeup.


    if theres any local ones by you, go there and get brochures and all the info you need.

    Make up artist please respond or those who truly know?

    1. Do I put a concealer first or foundation first?





    2. Should my concealer match my skin tone





    3. Bronzer should it also match my skin toneMake up artist please respond or those who truly know?
    1: always apply foundation 1st


    2: get a concealer 1 shade lighter than your skin tone


    3: buy a bronzer that is a shade darker than your skin to give you a little sunkissed lookMake up artist please respond or those who truly know?
    1. If you're not a pro, I would choose concealer first in case the concealer color don't blend well with the foundation color. If you apply foundation first, you should mix the concealer with the foundation before applying it that is if you're using a liquid foundation.


    2. No, yellow tone cancels out blue and green cancels out red. However, you have to blend it really well so the color difference won't be obvious. You might need to mix it with a little foundation if the color difference is too much.


    3. Bronzers are usually a little darker than your natural skin tone.
    1. Do I put a concealer first or foundation first?





    -This is preference. If the person doesn't need much coverage, I'll do the foundation first to see if that evens out the problem. If not, conceal the areas that need it. Otherwise if they really need coverage, concealer first, foundation, then top it off with more concealer, again, if needed.





    2. Should my concealer match my skin tone





    -Yes, of course. The point of concealer is the conceal whatever problems you might have and to match your skin tone. If you got a different shade, it would show. It you have redness however, neutralize it first before foundation with a green (you can buy colour wheels anywhere).





    3. Bronzer should it also match my skin tone





    -Not so much ';match'; as your goal is to give the skin a healthy glow. If you are fair skinned, I would use maybe a shade darker (nothing lighter then you already are), but stay within the range. Obviously for someone who is fair, you wouldn't be using a bronzer that is made for dark skin. Remember, with bronzer, a little goes a long way. Use a big powder dome brush to sweep colour over the areas that naturally would get the sun (cheekbones, chin, sides of nose, forehead..you get the idea). Remember to blend it into your neck however as normally the neck and face are two different skin shades. The last thing you need is to have a dark face and light neck!





    Hope that helps some.
    here is my answer but it also depends on what you prefer.


    but most people do this.


    concealer around ur eyes and pimple and black/red spots if u have any.


    then foundation all over ur face.


    so concealer then ur foundation.


    concealer should match ur skin tone. because u don't want people to see it. obviously.


    no bronzer should NOT match ur skin tone, it should be a little darker then ur skin tone coz you are shaping ur face.


    hope it helps.
    Concealer goes first. Then the foundation then your powder. Your concealer should be one to two shades lighter than your skin tone to cover redish splotches better. Bronzer should be one to two shades darker than your skin tone and only lightly brush onto your T zone. (Forehead, nose, and chin.)
    first u moisturise your skin then use primer then foundation n then some small amount of concelear n yes bronzer should match ur skin tone
    concealer first

    Well in NYC and NJ there are several choices...but I prefer either Khush Singh or K. Kristoff. You can view Khush's website at www.Khushsingh.com or www.TheMUA.com . Kristoff's is a referral. Both are celebrity makeup artist's that take personal clients and work on photo shoots and bridal as well as on TV and Movies.

    Should you tip the make up artist for a free demonstration at the cosmetic counter at the mall?

    He is a pro demonstrating new season麓s colors, but he麓s doing the whole make up process: sun protection, age prevention... eye make up, etc.Should you tip the make up artist for a free demonstration at the cosmetic counter at the mall?
    As far as tipping goes, I always ask. Usually, they cannot accept tips, but they like you to buy something. Personally, I have never been to a make up counter that accepts tips, but I am sure it depends on where you are. It really depends on the counter. Lancome, for instance, does not require you to purchase anything, (at least not the ones I have been to), but as a courtesy I always do. Chanel, on the other hand, requires a minimum purchase. I always follow the age-old rule: When in doubt, always ask. Hope this helps!Should you tip the make up artist for a free demonstration at the cosmetic counter at the mall?
    I say no! Free is free, he most certainly would not expect to be tipped for such a service. He gets paid for these demos by the make up company. I've never heard of any body tipping a make up artist in a department store. If, however, you go to a salon and see a licensed estetician, then yes you would tip him.
    If they go out of there way to be extremely helpful and it impresses you then it is a nice gesture. However it is not necessary or expected. Also some places will not allow them to accept tips as demonstration is a part of there job.
    Sure, if you can afford to do it. Why not tip everyone you see while racking up charges on the old credit card?
