“But the market is saturated…” (LIE)

Raise your hand if you’ve ever felt this…

If you’re considering a career in cosmetology or aesthetics, have you ever worried about job prospects?

With salons on every corner and beauty professionals seemingly everywhere, you might worry about market saturation. Is there really room for you?

The short answer is: YES. Here’s why.

There’s a demand for excellence.

The beauty industry is bursting with new professionals. But here’s the catch: the real challenge isn’t the number of professionals — it’s the quality.

There are plenty of average cosmetologists out there. What the market needs, and what clients are willing to pay for, are truly skilled, exceptional professionals.

Our motto?

“Average is the enemy, and success is your responsibility.”

We believe in setting a high bar, and we’re here to help you exceed it. Being above average involves three key areas:

Hard skills
Soft skills
Growth mindset

Hard skills involve mastering your craft. This includes advanced techniques like hair coloring, staying updated on the latest products, and building a diverse portfolio.

Soft skills are things like active listening to understand your clients’ needs, communication in explaining procedures and aftercare, and to be frank –– just getting the client to like you!

You’ll also want to show professionalism in all aspects, from being reliable a11nd punctual to maintaining a presentable appearance.

A growth mindset allows you to see challenges as opportunities for learning and continuous improvement. Resilience helps you learn from setbacks and handle rejection.

(A negative mindset never yields a positive outcome!)
