Career options

  • Salons
    An opportunity to work in a busy environment and a chance to build a diverse client base, who would turn this one down? Salons are usually the number one choice for students who are just starting out in the beauty industry. If you prefer a mellow workplace, you can seek employment at luxury resorts and hotels.

  • Cruise Ships
    Want to explore your options abroad? Cruise ships are your best bet. People aboard cruise ships are always looking for ways to relax and indulge in the finer things in life, and the spa is usually their first pick. As a beauty therapist onboard a cruise ship, your duty is to give luxurious spa treatments to clients and uphold your spa’s reputation.

  • Self-employment
    If none of the other options interests you, you may want to explore self-employment. This could also be the next step for you if you’ve built a respectable client base. Opening your own business means you are the master of your schedule and paycheck, and you’re also in the position to create job opportunities for others.

  • Mobile Salons
    Your business might not be accessible to all because of their busy schedules or other reasons. The best solution for this dilemma is to take your salon to them. This option is a less expensive alternative to renting your own space.
