Cosmetology School Students Talk About Choosing Beauty

Why choose beauty? Here at BeautySchoolAdvisor.com, we have a whole section on choosing to go to beauty school. But whenever possible I also like to give you the opportunity to hear directly from current and past cosmetology school students.

Another one of our websites, FirstChair.com, includes testimonials from eight students at Kohler Academy in Arizona. They each very beautifully recall the factors that influenced them when they were considering what to do with their lives. Two themes seem to be played over and over: 1) they want to help people feel good about themselves, and giving them a great look does the trick, and 2) they need an outlet for their own creativity.

Those dual goals echo what I’ve heard from so many professional stylists years after cosmetology school has become just a memory. As a group, hairdressers are some of the most giving people I’ve ever met. Their hearts truly sing when they see a client leave their chair thrilled with their new look. Even the most quiet cosmetologist, who may not seem outgoing, is a “people person” when it comes to a one-to-one relationship with the client. And as for creativity, hair designers are absolutely as creative as artists who express themselves in drawing, paint or crafts. So go to FirstChair.com’s “Kohler Academy: Why I Chose Beauty” and see whether you connect with what these students have to say.
