Runway Hair Stylist<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nIf you love the idea of traveling around the world and working in the glittering fashion industry, a career as a runway hair stylist is perfect for you! If you want to find yourself in this role, you\u2019ll need a hair styling certification that will open the door to your career.\n<p><\/p>\nWhile it may seem like a huge undertaking to pursue a hairstyling course (and we\u2019re sure that you live a busy life!), there are some excellent options to learn online. Enrolling in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/online-makeup-courses\/hair-styling-essentials\/\">online hair styling course<\/a> will teach you the skills and knowledge you need, and provide you with hands-on training. Once you know your theory and practical skills, you\u2019ll be on the path towards a career as a runway hair stylist.\n<p><\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20125\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle1.jpg\" alt=\"become a makeup artist\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle1.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/>\n<p><\/p>\nWith a certification, you can hone your skills at a high-end salon that has connections to runway shows and fashion shoots \u2013 here, you\u2019ll network and show your employers what you\u2019re made of. Helping out on fashion shoots is a fantastic way to get your foot in the door.\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Wigmaker\"><\/span>2. Wigmaker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nIn the hairstyling industry, wig making has seriously taken off. Many certified hair stylists are drawn to the idea of making hairpieces for the theatrical industry (films, plays and television) or for cosmetic purposes. If you want a truly unique hair styling job, this is a great avenue to choose. You can work in a variety of different capacities, as you may decide to cut and style wigs for people who need them (people undergoing chemotherapy or other medical treatments) or for people who want to change their current look from week to week with different styles.\n<p><\/p>\nPlus, you have the opportunity to work in the entertainment industry! Wigs are used all the time for film and TV productions, and are a huge part of special effects makeup. If you\u2019re looking for a fast-paced career in hair, wig making can take you there.\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Cosmetology_Instructor\"><\/span>3. Cosmetology Instructor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20126\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle2.jpg\" alt=\"makeup artist classes\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle2.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/>\n<p><\/p>\nThe great thing about the skills you learned in your course? You can share them with others and help aspiring hair stylists pursue their passion! If standing behind a hairstyling chair for eight hours a day doesn\u2019t appeal to you, perhaps channeling your expertise into an teaching role (often known as a Cosmetology Instructor) would be a dream job for you.\n<p><\/p>\nBecoming an instructor is a different journey than becoming a hair stylist. Completing a cosmetology program is generally required, as well as having a cosmetology license and by completing an exam. Many aspiring hair stylists get easily confused when it comes to what is required to start their career, so we recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/2015\/08\/makeup-artists-vs-cosmetologists-and-estheticians\/\">this helpful guide<\/a> that makes helpful distinctions between makeup artists, cosmetologists and estheticians.\n<p><\/p>\nFinally, you\u2019ll need a cosmetology instructor license, which is the last step on the path to educating hair stylists. This career is both highly exciting, challenging and rewarding, and worth the time it takes to get there!\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Platform_Stylist\"><\/span>4. Platform Stylist<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nIf you have an outgoing, almost theatrical personality, it will translate well to the role of Platform Stylist. In this position, you\u2019ll travel to different locations and perform on a stage to show off new collections, techniques, and products at various beauty and hair shows. You\u2019ll need to be highly confident in your skills and comfortable in front large groups of people, so keep that in mind if this is a job you want to pursue. No two days will be the same as a Platform Stylist, and you\u2019ll get to sharpen your public speaking, hair styling, and drama skills while building your career!\n<p><\/p>\n<strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> If you\u2019re a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/2015\/02\/hair-styling-makeup-artists\/\">certified makeup artist<\/a>, becoming a Platform Stylist (with a hair styling certification, of course) is an amazing way to build your range of services and expand your skill set. You\u2019re already a people person \u2013 why not take it a step further?\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Cruise_Ship_Hair_Stylist\"><\/span>5. Cruise Ship Hair Stylist<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nThe hospitality industry is bursting with roles for certified hair stylists, and one of the most exciting is that of a Cruise Ship Hair Stylist. While on vacation, many people love to be pampered and look their best, so they turn to hair stylists on the ship to work their magic! A love of adventure and travel is essential for this role, and the ability to speak another language is a huge bonus.\n<p><\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20127\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle3.jpg\" alt=\"makeup school online\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle3.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/hairstyle3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/>\n<p><\/p>\nDon\u2019t be fooled, though \u2013 this role isn\u2019t all adventure and excitement. It often will require even longer hours than a regular hair stylist would work, and may only provide you with a small amount of time off. You\u2019ll need to determine whether it works with your current lifestyle \u2013 and if it does, you\u2019re in for a great experience!\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"cta\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Find_out_how_an_online_hair_styling_course_will_prepare_you_for_a_thrilling_career\"><\/span>Find out how an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/online-makeup-courses\/hair-styling-essentials\/\">online hair styling course<\/a> will prepare you for a thrilling career!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There are several different types of jobs you can obtain with a hair styling certification &#8212; read on for 5 unique careers, and be inspired!","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":28878,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[433],"class_list":{"0":"post-20124","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-your-makeup-career"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>5 Unique Careers for Professional Hairstylists - QC Makeup Academy<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Your hair styling skills and certificate can take you to some amazing places!
