As <a href=\"\/hair-styling-essentials-rm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a hair stylist<\/a>, you would help shape the client\u2019s hair into an attractive style of her choosing (or as expertly recommended by you). You\u2019d create things in her hair such as waves, <a href=\"\/2018\/02\/online-hair-styling-course-sample-curling-techniques\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">curls<\/a>, volume, and\/or <a href=\"\/2015\/10\/hair-styling-essentials-course-sample-waterfall-braid-tutorial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">braids<\/a>. You\u2019d have the skills and training to be able to give your clients all sorts of up-dos, down-dos, and everything in-between. Of course, you\u2019d know how to do all this with the aid of:\n<ul>\n \t<li><em>Hot styling tools<\/em> (tools that specifically use heat), such as a: hair dryer, curling iron, straightener, etc.<\/li>\n \t<li><em>Hair styling products<\/em>, such as: hairspray, gel, mouse, etc.<\/li>\n \t<li><em>Other styling tools,<\/em> such as bobby pins, elastics, headbands, hair accessories, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nAs a hair stylist, you would use your knowledge and understanding of face shapes and structures to recommend flattering styles, up-dos, extensions, etc. to your client. When a client has their heart set on a particular style, it\u2019s your job to deliver it (if possible), to the best of your ability.\n\nTo be a working hair stylist, you don\u2019t necessarily need any formal certification. This is due to the fact that nothing you\u2019d be doing to a client\u2019s hair would permanently change it. You wouldn\u2019t be using any harsh chemicals, or altering color or length. Everything you\u2019d do would always be temporary!\n\nThat being said, while many hair stylists don\u2019t always <em>need <\/em>certification, having it will definitely make you stand out from the competition and look better to clients.

The defining thing that separate a hair dresser from a stylist is that a hair dresser is qualified to make permanent changes to a client\u2019s hair. This means that they\u2019re allowed to do any of the following to their clients\u2019 hair:\n<ul>\n \t<li>Cut it<\/li>\n \t<li>Bleach and\/or dye it (basically give it some type of chemical treatment)<\/li>\n \t<li>Install permanent hair extensions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nTo be VERY clear: a hair dresser is qualified to do these things. A hair <em>stylist <\/em>is NOT!\n\nMuch like a hair stylist, a hair dresser needs to rely on her knowledge of the client\u2019s overall appearance, facial structure, etc. to be able to make the final call on what will suit them best. You can provide suggestions, give caution against bad ideas, and then apply your skills to execute the chosen look as flawlessly as possible.\n\nTo work as a professional hair dresser, most places will require you to obtain a <a href=\"\/makeup-licensing-requirements\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cosmetology license<\/a> in your city, state, or country. In addition to this, there may be a requirement that you\u2019ve completed a certain number of hours of education, training, and practice.\n\nIn these locations, to work as a hair dresser <em>without <\/em>these things would quite literally be illegal. The consequences could be anywhere from a fine, to criminal charges (if, for example, a client were to be injured in some way).\n\nIf you\u2019re interested in become a hair dresser, make sure you research the legislation in your area.

Rather, she likely will only need\/want it to be styled.\n\nBecause of this, the likelihood that she will also like to get her hair styled <em>in addition to <\/em>getting her makeup done (or vice versa) for this big event is high. Thus, these 2 beauty services have a tendency to <a href=\"\/2017\/08\/add-hair-styling-makeup-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">go hand-in-hand<\/a> nicely.\n\nThat being said, you can by all means still offer full hair dressing services as part of your makeup business. Though not all of your makeup clients will be as likely to need both services on the same day, that\u2019s not to say it\u2019ll never happen.\n\nOne positive is that hair dressing services opens up your clientele to more than just a makeup-related audience. You\u2019ll also become open to clients who may only want hair-related services.\n\nKeep in mind, though, that hair dressing is seen as its own job in-and-of itself. There\u2019s also more equipment involved, so the start-up and maintenance costs will be higher than if you were just hair styling alone.\n\nThere\u2019s also the potential issue of <a href=\"\/2018\/05\/time-management-hacks-for-taking-makeup-classes-online-while-balancing-your-busy-life\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">time management<\/a>. It might be hard to balance being a makeup artist <em>and <\/em>a hair dresser. If you want to first and foremost be an MUA, your hair dressing services may need to take a step (or two, or three) back, in terms of your business priorities.\n\nSo while technically, there\u2019s absolutely nothing stopping you from adding both types of services to your makeup business, hair styling services tend to mesh a little better. It\u2019ll cost you less to maintain within your business, and won\u2019t be as big of a timely commitment for you to try and juggle.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;30&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;40363&#8243; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221;][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;30&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text]It\u2019s ultimately your choice when it comes to picking the career path that\u2019s best suited for you and your goals.
