Is Tuition Your Big Hurdle to Attending Beauty School?
Published: April 03, 2009
by Rosanne Ullman
I want to share with you an email conversation I had with a blog reader who wrote to me about how upset she is because she doesn’t have the money to attend beauty school and the only cosmetology school within an hour’s drive of her home is not accredited and, therefore, not eligible to offer government grants. I’m betting that she’s not alone in her frustration.

Young people realize that without post-high school education, your choices are limited, it’s harder to move up in a company when you do get a job and, ultimately, you’ll probably be doing something that you’re not passionate about or you may not even enjoy. Still, no one should go to beauty school by default. So the first thing I had my emailer think about is how much she wants to go into this profession.

I emailed back, “Do you find yourself doing hair all the time on friends and relatives? Are you a creative person in general? Do you enjoy making other people feel good about themselves? If you truly believe you’re a hairdresser in your heart, you almost have no choice but to follow through and get the training. Otherwise no matter what you do in life, you’ll wish you were doing hair. From a practical view, you’ll make the most money doing what you love to do and have the most talent to do.” Next time I’ll outline the tangible suggestions I gave her for acquiring cash for beauty school tuition.
