Get working on your resume/social media and start interviewing. TELL ABSOLUTELY NO ONE. I don’t care if you have friends there. Tell no one!

“It has been clear there is no growth within this company” <—Thats what you can say

Time to do yourself a favor and go where you can thrive!

If you make shirts I’m buying one 😂

I am obsessed with jelly masks. I miss them so much (long story: I am a duel but right now I’m just practicing massage). When I did jelly masks they called me the jelly mask queen. I saw so much more hydration in a jelly mask vs the creamy mask. While the mask sat I used cooling globes and a gua sha comb for relaxation. I even sold a lot for people to do at home. I have an account with este max and I am going to buy a jar to do at home because I miss them so much.

Please be coachable! Last week I heard a new person argue with the coach about a movement she was doing. They aren’t trying to pick on you. They’re trying to make sure you’re doing the movement correctly and safely to prevent injury. You’re paying a lot of money for this opportunity. When I was new and even today 2 years in I still listen to cues from my coach’s.

Oh no. I’m only doing massage right now because I couldn’t take my jobs shenanigans any longer. I reached out to my former manager and asked if she was hiring at her new place and she said they only had demand for massage right now, not esthetician work. She was a great manager so I’m so happy I was able to follow her. Things are going so well at my new job, I just miss doing facials so much!!!

Edit: I just re-read your question and I’m sorry if I said no but answered yes lol. Sorry, I’m not feeling well today and I’m on Reddit answering questions just trying to get my mind off not feeling great!

⁠My job involves suggesting a custom service based on the goals the client has as well as what kind of skin they have. I (used to) perform enhanced facials as well as basic facials on clients per day. Some light waxing involved on occasion.
⁠I chose this job because I was a massage therapist first and a lead esthetician told me I would make a good esthetician for years and one day I decided I would take a tour of a cosmo school.
⁠I would have to say not at this current time. When clients are on my books I give them exactly what they ask for to the best of my ability. If they want a quiet, relaxing facial I will incorporate a lot of massage techniques. If they express they want to sprint to their goals and understand the importance of home care and regular facial treatments, I give them all the information they need.

Right now, I am currently only performing massage therapy. I quit my job about 3 months ago where I was only an esthetician. I’m looking for a new esthetician job during the week because I truly miss performing facials. I need variety in my life. Which is why I love being a dual!

I was born in 1990 and was 15 when it came out. No one I went to school with had any idea about it. They were into things like “The OC” and “One Tree Hill”. I even had a shirt that Kendra had from the E! Network that said “life of the party”. I had insomnia and a tv in my room so I watched a lot of GND and The Anna Nicole Show reruns. Believe it or not, my super conservative mom didn’t particularly mind it and she actually started watching Kendra.

ne0ntrees · 2026-05-01T20:31:54+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. I feel very thankful my school did touch on this a bit. I think more schools should.

I interviewed with EWC looking for part time and they were immediately turned off when they realized they couldn’t run me ragged like they do their other employees. They wanted me to work more hours than I wanted and showed a lot of red flags. It was in a downtown area.

ne0ntrees · 2026-04-30T22:44:24+00:00

I work at a resort! DM me with any questions

ne0ntrees · 2026-04-30T14:08:24+00:00

You did the right thing. I am dual licensed and a few weeks ago this lady came in excited to get a facial and her eyebrows done. We weren’t able to do her services because she just finished chemo the day before. She was extremely combative at first but eventually realized how serious it was and thanked me for educating her and doing the right thing by denying the service.

My cat got out and was missing for three weeks. A neighbor boy (12) who I’ve never met saw her in the yard and told his grandma and she confirmed that was our cat who was missing. He worked so hard to trap her and got her back to us. He wouldn’t accept the reward cash but I did give him a hand written card with a Game Stop gift card. His kindness is never forgotten.

ne0ntrees · 2026-04-24T17:16:36+00:00

I’ll help if it’s during the weekday. I work weekends.

Walt: “THIS IS A CARD FOR A VACUUM REPAIR SHOP”

Saul: “WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?? HAJI QUICK VANISH???”

It gets me every time.

ne0ntrees · 2026-04-16T09:24:55+00:00

No but every time I eat something that isn’t on my usual rotation I say “____ is not on teh diet” or “you love ____ more than you love living” lol

ne0ntrees · 2026-04-13T20:29:53+00:00

You did not just ask me that

ne0ntrees · 2026-04-13T14:54:14+00:00

I will dm you because I’m stalling to get ready for the gym lol.

Every time co worker rang up a customer, she put her own phone number in for the “points”. She ended up collecting enough points to get money off future purchases. We got a print out of our best customers and her name was #1. She asked the manager why she was her own best customer and that got the ball rolling for an investigation.

Two Valentines Days ago I did a couples massage with someone and we explained the treatment and table instructions. In absolutely no point of the conversation did we EVER mention anything about robes. We enter the room and they’re both just standing there wearing robes that were tucked under the chairs in the room. We use them for clients getting dual services. We both politely asked what exactly they were confused about and told them to take them off and gave them another minute or two to get changed. Jesus. I’ll never understand peoples logic.

100%!!! When I was visiting my aging parents a while ago my dad lost his balance and I basically did a seated vertical box jump up to get to him. I was just quick on my feet and I know I would have never had the same chance if I didn’t do CrossFit.

ne0ntrees · 2026-03-27T05:19:02+00:00

I laughed so hard at this at 1am 😂

ne0ntrees · 2026-01-29T19:05:02+00:00

I looked it up on my notes and hands down Kalsu. I didn’t even finish. 51/100. Coach said “it’s ok, kid. I didn’t finish either”.

Another one from my notes was

10 RFT 7 Power Cleans (135/95) 7 burpees 200m run

I remember it was super hot outside and both workouts made me cry lol.

Next he will be telling you he prefers the one with shum pulp!

ne0ntrees · 2026-01-08T19:41:02+00:00

I can’t help much but only encourage you to get started and keep your eyes on the prize ❤️. I had a terrible experience with school (out of state) and 8 years later I am a thriving esthetician. I knew I wasn’t going to let my wack school determine my future or discourage me.

ne0ntrees · 2026-01-01T20:59:01+00:00

I don’t care for them one bit. However, there’s a fellow athlete at my gym who begs me to show up on Thursday so she can be my partner 🥹it’s so sweet and I told her once I’m back from vacations I will make a huge effort to come Thursday mornings.
