Is a Permanent Cosmetics Career for Me?

Since you were little, you enjoyed playing with makeup. When you were younger, you got play makeup and smeared it on yourself and your dolls. As you got older, at slumber parties, you enjoyed giving make overs to your friends. As an adult, you love to experiment with all of the different looks you can do with makeup.
So how do you decide if this career path is for you? While you love doing makeup, you don’t know if this is what you absolutely want to do for the rest of your life?

What Is Permanent Makeup?
The first question we want to answer is what is permanent makeup. It’s an excellent question and even the people who love makeup are sometimes not aware of what permanent makeup is. Permanent makeup is a beauty method. It’s a specific technique that people use who want to enhance features on their face such as their lips, eyelids, eyebrows, or their skin. Many people get permanent eyebrows because they have been lost due to overplucking, lack of shape/color, older age, chemotherapy, or diseases. Permanent makeup is an option to help people gain confidence, ultimately helping them look and feel better about themselves again, which is the BEST “job” in the world!

What Are the Benefits of This Career?
The first benefit of going into this career is that the training doesn’t have to be a lengthy experience when you train with Salina at Symmetrically Beautiful by Salina. With our easy-to-go-through training process, you’ll be able to learn a lot while also completing the program in a sufficient amount of time.
When you decide to train with Symmetrically Beautiful by Salina, you can expect a few things. First, you’ll learn an immense amount of information that will help to propel you forward into this career. Salina has been in the beauty industry for over a decade, so she knows a thing or two about permanent makeup. With our experience, we’ll guide you through what you need to know about permanent makeup.
Another benefit to working in this industry is you can get paid very well! For an established permanent makeup artist, an average salary can range between $50,000 - $100,000+ a year. The reason people make such great money in this industry is because you are in a specialized field that many people want to take advantage of. From celebrities to older women, there are many people who want to take advantage of tattoo makeup to make them feel better about their appearance. Since there are so many advantages of getting tattoo makeup, it’s a high demand service. In addition, you’re self-employed and you don’t work on a salary. Essentially, your business is up to your discretion.
Lastly, you have the benefit of helping people feel better about themselves. Many of the people who come to a permanent makeup artist want to fix the areas that they struggle with and make them feel self-conscious. Everyone feels uncomfortable in their own skin at some point and now with permanent makeup you can give them the opportunity to feel better about themselves. While you’ll get people who want to make their morning regimen easier and save on money for makeup, you’ll also get people who want to feel better about themselves.
