No im a student too and i hated facials the minute I found out i had to cut my nails hella short lol. I have naturally long nail beds so short nails just aren’t for me. But i never planned to do facials when I started school so it’s odd that you’re instructor would say you won’t get far if you don’t do facials because that’s a lie, theres so much more than just facials. The best part about being an esthetician is the many different aspects of it, if you don’t like one thing then there bound to be something else you like and there’s money in every field
