A practitioner is just that. . someone that practices..... Most people associate the word with a medical practitioner, or general practitioner but you can be a practitioner of anything. Most people believe you have to have years of experience behind you to use this word, you don't. It's just an advanced word, that's all, and thinking outside the box of the usual technician and therapist which every one uses...apart from me clearly. ..ha ha. It's no different from the wording "window fitter", what sounds better "Fenestration Engineer" or "Window Fitter" it's the same thing...you service beauty, you can be a Beauty Practitioner or Beauty Therapists, beauty person, nail technician, nail practitioner....it's just a play on words......
