If you weren't a therapist/nail tech/hair stylist what would you be?

Having a bit of a career crisis at the moment but I have no idea what I'd do if I wasn't a therapist I was just wondering if any of you guys had ever thought of what you would do if you weren't in the hair and beauty industry?

My hubby in the forces and with 3 young kids it's tough to find time to do hair these days! I'd love to be a midwife it will never happen tho!

I'd still be a careers adviser

Or I'd train as a counsellor or teacher - all jobs that require people skills.

I had a pupil at school undecided between hairdressing, training as a pastry chef & going into teaching - we discussed both jobs in detail & she was amazed at the parallels between the three

Mmm not sure what I'd like to be now besides a beauty therapsit. Though when I was younger I wanted to be a vet or a graphic designer.

I would be a children's behavioural psychologist working for the NHS ;-)

I'd be at the Battersea dogs home, just living with the dogs.

failing that, a funeral director.

A police officer. I worked in the legal profession for years before becoming self employed, and was in the process of applying for the police force when I became ill, and my long term illness forced me to reconsider my career plans. I've always wanted to be a police officer, but self employment became a much wiser option for me, and I've always had my nails & waxing done so had an enthusiasm for it and decided to pursue it professionally

I always fancied being a blacksmith.

rachy86 · 14-09-12, 09:01 PM

Definitely a mid wife. There is still part of me now that would love to do it...
