Considerations

---

Professional's Choice Hair Design Academy feels that the student who is interested in pursuing a career in cosmetology should consider all of its aspects, including its physical demands. If you want to become a cosmetologist, consider the following:

• Finger dexterity and a sense of form and artistry
• Enjoy dealing with the public
• Ability to follow client directions
• Keep abreast of the latest fashions and beauty techniques - learning does not stop once you get your license.
• Work long hours to build and keep clientele - including standing for long hours; standing with your arms, shoulders, and hands at shoulder level; sitting at a manicure table.
• Exposure to various chemicals and fumes which may lead to allergic reactions.
• Commitment to practicing safety and sanitation.
