If you’re thinking about a cosmetology career or considering going to beauty school, there are probably a couple of big questions that factor into your decision: Is there a demand for cosmetologists? And what do beauty professionals make?

In the video above, Becca explains how the growing population and the rising value being placed on advanced beauty skills and services is contributing to much faster than average job growth. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that beauty career opportunities will increase by 20% through 2018.

It’s difficult to quote a projected cosmetology salary, however, because so many factors determine what cosmetologists and beauty professionals make. Obviously, the more experience you have, the higher your wages will be. If you are certified to perform multiple beauty services, you will have an advantage as well. The important thing is to find the right school for you, get the training you need, and pursue your dreams with a passion.
