I’m on it :)

Aww thanks for watching and sorry it's been stressful. Even when things are well it can get hard mentally. Sometimes I get overwhelmed being so busy now.. before I was overwhelmed not busy enough ... finding that balance is key!

I was able to get my training paid for laser through my employer so I would think Aesthetics first but it can be tough to get into a practice without extra certifications. I would honestly take a good look at your area and try to speak with Aestheticians in derm and Plastic practices and get their insights. Most Aestheticians want to be helpful so I would try reaching out. Don't get discouraged if you encounter someone grumpy or too cool to help. You will find one willing to talk! :) It will all depend on your area and state regulations to be honest each state is so different. I was in Ohio and now WV so happy to help if you are in one of those! I also know a little about KY. I am in a Tristate area.

Hey, thanks for watching. I think it's never too late! Also You being more mature you'll like be more caring, and you'll seem even more wise!! Just really step up your skin care if you haven't because people do trust us if we also have great skin. I've seen several successful older women in this field so I say go for it if that's your passion!!

For me, that is correct!! I have an applied sciences degree which was to be a counselor before I did Aesthetics but it’s not what helped me here. Other than that Aesthetics and certifications is what I have 💖 It really depends what state you’re in and what they allow. If you don’t mind me asking, what state are you in? There’s groups on Facebook that help a lot too. Esthetician connections is a good one. Also don’t let the A for Aesthetician confuse you… nobody really ever answered that one for me lol… basically medical community uses A in Aesthetics which to me should be across the board even in spas but… spas use E- Esthetician So silly… And most Aestheticians these days who know even a little bite charge you for some extra online class… that actually really annoys me. We used to just network and help each other but since covid, everyone just tries to make extra money for every single thing… I understand some extra info can be worth that but so many people charge for very basic advice.

Hello, it would honestly vary per state. Most states require a doctor to be on site or at the very least that a doctor allows you to work under their license. They usually do not have to be present but you are under their license. I would imagine you would need to to go in with a physician for this reason for a medi spa. In Ohio for example, Aestheticians can no longer microneedle patients even though they could previously. In West Virginia I can microneedle, I am an Aesthetician with no nursing license. So really look into your state requirements. You may need to look into nursing as well especially if you'd like to inject botox and fillers. If you get any nursing or other medical degree along with Aesthetics, you would be at a greater advantage honestly.

If that's the area you're interested in, I would try to find a school that offers the most certifications in advanced services for sure.

Thanks for watching! I believe it would depend on the services provided. In the past, it was definitely more common for women to be estheticians. I always thought it was cool to see men doing Aesthetics though. I believe some women would love that. For body treatments, there would be more hesitation I think from certain women to see a male esthetician. For example, I’ve worked with male massage therapists and they sometimes were not as busy as the female therapists. That was because sometimes when clients called in they would ask for female therapists only. Sometimes there’s fear when it comes to body treatments. I think a male who does a great job, treats clients well, could become very popular and stand out especially now days… it is starting to become more acceptable for men to do more in the beauty world. Definitely would face some challenges though like I said depending on your service list and your location too.

It was included in my aesthetic schooling but many medical offices will only hire us after we've had some experience doing skin care, they like you to have taken extra courses like dermaplaning, microneedling, laser, etc. Some of them will pay you to get certified in these courses though but many expect at least 1-2 years experience even in a spa setting.
