Sorry if im about to go on but I need ideas! :|
I have finished my level 3 beauty and have done minimum treatments since qualifying. I don't know whether to pick another career (I would like to work as a social worker with small children somewhere like the nspcc) or do I stick with beauty until I can finally get somewhere?!
I don't want to rent a room as my boyfriend has a room I can work from (currently full of his mates stuff while his finding a house) but then I don't want to add more money onto his home insurance etc and I feel I wont get enough clients to drop my current 2 jobs and as my hours are unpredictable it would be hard to book in clients any more then a week in advance and my current wages aren't really covering much so I dread to think ill have to buy more products with them!
I don't drive so cant go mobile and don't fancy getting a bus with my couch (and buses aren't reliable). - I am learning to drive next year though!
I cant work in a spa as they aren't really by bus stops and I would basically work for my taxi fare!
My sister suggested doing extra beauty courses until I learn to drive but even then there around £200++ each course which I don't really have the money to do. I have all the equipment to carry out facials, waxing, spray tans,manicures, massage, pedicures, tinting etc but no clients (I haven't yet brought insurance so haven't advertised as I have nowhere to carry out the treatments). I don't want to give up beauty but im thinking should I go down another career path and then do beauty on the side once I have set hours in a job and can do beauty from home etc on the nights and weekends or days off? I can do beauty treatments on family whilst training in another career? or wont this work?
I love doing beauty but nowhere employs you anymore its all rent a room and that's not what I want. My dad and mom will just think I didn't want to do it anyway which is a lie and I feel they will be disappointed in me as ive done level 2 hairdressing and hated now level 2 and 3 beauty but nothings come of it
Someone help I don't fancy been a sales assistant for the rest of my life! :cry:xx
