Cosmetology Career Opportunities
One of the main motivators for people joining the cosmetology industry, besides a passion for beauty, is the flexibility it offers. Cosmetologists can choose to specialize in one service or offer many. They work in many different job environments, like salons, spas, beauty stores, beauty schools, and more. Often, people with cosmetology licenses work for themselves and decide which days and times they will work. Another aspect of flexibility is the number of different jobs you can do with a cosmetology degree, such as:
- Hairstylist: Performs haircuts, highlights, updos, and other hair services in salons and spas
- Salon owner/manager: Oversees the operation of the salon, supervises the stylists, engages with clients, and more
- Hair coloring specialist: Focuses on techniques like ombre, balayage, foils, and glosses to alter a client’s hair color
- Permanent waving specialist: Provides a chemical hair treatment called a perm to curl or wave the client’s hair
- Sales representative: Visits salons, spas, and beauty stores to offer stylists and sellers the latest beauty products
- Fashion show stylist: Creates unique hair and makeup looks for fashion shows, whether local for small businesses or international for major designers
- Nail artist: Performs manicures, pedicures, artificial nails, and other related services for clients in spas and salons
- Makeup artist: Does makeup looks on clients for special events, photoshoots, films, etc.
Cosmetologists may also start doing one job and transition to another later in their career as the industry and their interests evolve, offering additional flexibility.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of cosmetologists is projected to grow 8% through 2032, faster than the average for all occupations. This positive job outlook and the flexibility that cosmetology offers are two main reasons people are choosing this rewarding career path.
