Cosmetology Best Careers 2009

In a recent job satisfaction survey, hairstylist ranked number 1! Overall this is not surprising. Cosmetology is one of the only fields in which you, for the most part, please every client. Also people tend to be loyal to their hairdresser so with hard work and the right people skills you can aquire longterm clients and possibly friends. After all theres a lot of time to chat while, shampooing, cutting, etc..... Another great thing about a Career in Cosmetology is that you are actually rewarded for being trendy and keeping up with all the latest fashions. This is a major plus for all you fashionistas out there just looking for something too do. The positives to cosmetology are too many to name. Theres the good hours, excellent pay, not too mention the lack of stress that comes along with most 9-5s. In this rocky economy Cosmetology has held strong and not seen near the drop off that other industries are currently going through. And there is zero chance of a cosmetology job being outsourced overseas to India or another country. So take a look at the advantages of this Career, it just might be for you, and remember in most states it takes only about one year to become a licensed Cosmetologist. And remember choose a good school, theres no shortage of really bad cosmetology schools out there!! A good rule is too look for ones that have been around for more than a decade and stay away from the Technical School Programs these are consistently the worst of all!!!
