i have a bit of a dilema. i already have several level three qualifications in holistic therapies. these include. diploma in aromatherapy, diploma in indian head massage, diploma in reflexology and sports masage certificate and sports event massage.these i got nine years ago. i am currently doing a level two certificate in nail treatments manicure and pedicure.
i have been offered a place at my local college for level two beauty which i start in september which im really excited about. but my problem is that i need to start earning asap. so i plan to either rent a room in a local hair salon or go mobile or possibly both.
i am also in september doing a level two course in nail technology. i need to start earning because i would like to be able to move in with my boyfriend. september is the ideal time for me to start college because my youngest child will be starting full time school.
the problem is i cant afford to live with my bf because he earns a low income and things would be very hard for us i dont mind waiting the 18 months i have to but to wait 2 and a half years would be unbearable.
this is my situation.
what i would like to know is would this be enough qualifications for me to be able to start up a successful business or would i be better off waiting and doing level three beauty or could i manage without it. as all i would be doing is massage photographic makeup and facial and body electrics.
non of which i actually think i need.
the college has also said that i could do a course in hot stone massage. which i could do part time after i have finished my level two beauty. i also plan to learn semi permanant eyelashes and intimate waxing, both male and female. this i would do after i have completed my hot stones massage course and have my business off the ground
im just not sure what to do. do you think that combined with all my other qualifications that this would be enough.
we also have the opportunity to learn spray tan alongside the level two beauty
what do you guys think. do you think it is neccessary for me to do level three or will i already have enough qualifications. i also think it would be hard for me to get a job in a salon because of my age. i am 42. that is why i plan to work for myself
