Hi - I started my beauty training (part-time - evenings) last year at the tender age of 40. I was also nervous but it was fantastic - loved learning and honing my new skills.
I start back at college in 5/6 weeks time to begin my level 3 massage route course. I'm super excited as I've missed learning new things.
I'm employed full-time, have a home and son to maintain - it can get a little stressful but those times will pass and the friendships with 'beauty buddies' and tutors outweigh all the moments. If I could offer a little advice - don't get behind on assignments or revising - I know its easy to say but work can soon back-up. Practice, practice, practice - this will make life so much easier when you come to practical assessments - I bought a beauty bed off ebay and started offering free treatments to friends etc. just to get the routines etc. off by heart. I passed all my assessments first time
I really wish you luck - its the best thing I've ever done and can't wait to get back in September
Wow thank you so much that's great advice , I can be a bit complacent and tend to leave things to the last minute but I will definetly make a point of getting things done on time , can I ask how much you paid for you're bed if you don't mind ? Xxx
