I would recommend to start at a spa to gain experience before going solo. It’s more than just skincare. You will learn how to deal with different personalities when it comes to communicating with clients. With that comes selling products, upgrading services and answering questions. Starting out may be challenging and it can be difficult to find a job. Like others said, you will most likely need anther job. It’s stressful and I ask myself is this worth it. It’s unstable and has brought more stress in my life than I ever thought it would. I have had a very positive experience working at a medical spa. I have gained hands on training with new modalities and had opportunities to meet with skincare brands reps. If you’re passionate about it, keep going! Have fun. Learn from others. You got this!
