I loved this video! Thank you for all the information you both shared. I’m in Florida and I just started school and I was definitely feeling a little bit overwhelmed, but this definitely helped. Keep making videos like this! ❤️
So glad you feel a little less overwhelmed!! Take it one day at a time! Thanks for watching. We will for sure making more. We are in the process of it this week. Any ideas what we should talk about?? 💋
@@VivaVitalityMedSpa I’m going to definitely be perfecting my craft before trying to do a lot stuff lol... but one thing I’m kinda confused about and maybe you guys can talk about is classes after school? Online classes? Is it worth it to have a niche or know a little bit of everything? What about working for someone else before going solo? If I think of something else I’ll posted in the comments. Thank you guys!!!
I have wanted to do this as a career for years. I've been scared though because I'm close to 30 and in a job that realistically is double the salary I would likely make starting out as an esthetician on average salary. I also live in an area where there aren't many schooling options. But I really want to do it anyway because I'd like to do something I actually enjoy! Appreciate the honest video!
I don’t think any of us want to wake up and think “ what if “ if you can afford a little pay cut for a bit, go for it. There’s sooo many faces out there, Sam and I can’t do it alone!! 😛good luck ! If you have any questions, we are always here. Xoxo
I love this video! You ladies seem very friendly- would love to work with you! I feel intimidated going- for some reason I have always felt like what if I don't learn everything the way I should or if Im not smart enough for Esthetician School.
Thank you for watching! We made this video so people wouldn’t feel intimidated by switching careers or trying something new. You are smart enough for Esthetican school!! As long as you enjoy working with the public and skincare, that’s a must ! There’s tons of books out there to read while in school. You certainly won’t learn it all in school , just go and get the basics !
@@VivaVitalityMedSpa well the whole working with skincare makes me feel excited- but I don’t know how I can decide if it is for me considering I haven’t done it before .. but I love making people feel good, I love knowing the idea of anti-aging & it looks romanticized being an esthetician haha I know like every job it has it’s cons- but I want to study something .. For medical esthetician- how do I get there? Do I take the basics Esthetician 600 hour course & from there- can I go back to school to further my studies so I get paid more/know more ? Or from the basics go straight to small courses & get certificates like that ? Hopefully you can make a video hehe😊❤️
Thank you for watching !! Aesthetics is a really fun and forever changing career. Just keep studying and practicing! Don’t go outside your comfort zone and learn one craft at a time. 💋
I’d love to hear more! I would love to know what you two make on average, what services you perform, and if you work at a medspa or a private spa. Thank you!
Hi! I’m a master esthetician practicing in WA state! I would love a video on realistic income and some numbers from your state if you’re comfortable disclosing that of course. Thank you!💘
I’m also in the state of WA!! I am considering starting school. Would love to know the steps you took to become one, was there testing towards the end to actually be able to practice?
How exciting! This career is so much fun and is always changing. Don't be nervous! Have a healthy respect for the skin and learn everyday. Stay in your lane and perfect one trade at a time, don't try to do too much at once.
So what’s the point, if it doesn’t make you money. So I can expect to spend a lot of money on school, but I’m not going to make anything? The only reason I’d want to be an esthetician is because I thought it would be better income than the two jobs I have already. So if you want to be an esthetician don’t do it for the money basically?
I think the point is, don't expect to make a ton of money right out of school. There is a lot of other competition. You have to learn to hustle and to keep on learning new techniques etc. It's a wonderful career and you can make a good living, we just are telling others to not ASSUME right when you're done with school, you'll be making 6 figures. Now, if you get a good handle on social media you may be able to sky rocket that way.
Oh man this is so scary … I left my job to do this 😂 ughhh … Torn between doing what I want to do with the risk of being financially unstable Vs doing what I have to do hating my job in order to survive this economy 😭😭
Is it really necessary to go to school to take the test and become Esthetician or is it possible to study and learn independently and then take the test?
i’m about to be a junior in high school and topic of college has been in the question. will i be able to apply for esthetician school straight out of high school?
Hey I’m from Nova Scotia Canada . I want to be an esthetician but I m little confuse about school here bcz I can’t find proper information about the process and all that in canada to become an esthetician
First. I love Nova Scotia!!! I was there for a week a few years back and my lord what a beautiful place. I really am not sure the laws there, you may need to look up local schools and just see what you can find. I am sorry! Good luck- Lizzie
im very interested in become an esthetician but i do want to go to college and get my bachelors its just very important to be but am i holding myself back is the question?
Getting your bachelors is a huge accomplishment!! It isn’t necessary to have a Bachelors degree to be an Esthetician, however, anytime you can learn more and grow more the better it is for personal growth.
Hi lovely ladies! Nice vedio!I am a registered doctor in my country and doing all the aesthetic procedures, including, but not limited to injections, lasers etc. I am moving to Florida with my husband within next 2 months. What is the prerequisite for me to get a job as an aesthetician? What courses do I need to go through for licence? Thanks in advance for your valuable opinion.
I am not sure how that works as far as your license transferring! Call your local school for esthetics and see if they can assist you! If anything it’s a very short and sweet course . You already know your stuff so it will be a piece of cake to get a piece of paper. Let us know how you do! Welcome to Florida. 🥰

i think it depends on your area, maybe call medspas - salons and ask around. i’ve never heard of an online course. i think hands on is best but that’s just me. -Lizzie
@@VivaVitalityMedSpa thank you very much and I do have another question what are the different fields that I could get into after graduating from esthetics. I'm a very spiritual Christian
@@tiffanyhorvath7720 depends on your area. there are medical spas, spas, holistic spas - it’s really endless. you just have to decide what you are most interested in and run with it.
@VivaVitalityMedSpa I read it's 450 hours in SC. So, how many days would 260 hours be ? another thing, is it possible to work as a certified esthecian without a licence? Do some clinics allow that?
Hey neighbor! Sam and I both went to local Esthetic schools. Ridge career center and the one in Tampa. Please don’t go spending a ton of $$$ on Esthetic school. ❤️
Hey there! It truly depends on where you are located. Some states and countries have totally different requirements. I’d recommend googling your particular area and see what the requirements are around you! 😃

Hi! I’m a master esthetician practicing in WA state! I would love a video on realistic income and some numbers from your state if you’re comfortable disclosing that of course. Thank you!💘
We will try to work on this!! ❤️ xoxo
I’m also in the state of WA!! I am considering starting school. Would love to know the steps you took to become one, was there testing towards the end to actually be able to practice?
I'm a 9th grade drop out and Im 37 I'll be starting in August and very nervous 😓😬 ...any advice because I don't know much about it!

Great advice ladies
Thanks so much!!
Is it really necessary to go to school to take the test and become Esthetician or is it possible to study and learn independently and then take the test?
That would be lovely! As far as we are aware, schooling is the only option. It’s not that long , it’s fairly simple and easy. 🙏
How is the pay though? Do you work on commission or hourly? For all estheticians?
@@tiffanyhorvath7720 at our spa. we work hourly , receive commissions and tips. not too shabby 🤭
i’m about to be a junior in high school and topic of college has been in the question. will i be able to apply for esthetician school straight out of high school?
Hey there! Typically , yes! You will need to check your area to make sure it is there as well. Good luck! It's a great profession :)

Hi lovely ladies! Nice vedio!I am a registered doctor in my country and doing all the aesthetic procedures, including, but not limited to injections, lasers etc.
I am moving to Florida with my husband within next 2 months.

You already know your stuff so it will be a piece of cake to get a piece of paper. Let us know how you do! Welcome to Florida. 🥰
How long is the program? And how much is the tuition?
It depends on your area! Call your local schools that offer facial licenses and ask. I wish we could tell you but it really varies!

How old do I have to be to do this. Is 33 too late to go to school
Not at all!!!!! There’s not an age limit for what we do. Just a love for people and skin!! 😘
I am 37 and moved to the US to start my medical esthetics and Electrology courses three weeks ago. Its never too late to follow your heart/passion.
I am 36 i was a chef but now i am a lsh technician in nyc 7 months now. Never late. Going to school soon.
Do you think its possible to become an estetician through online school? And if so, is there one that you could recommend? Thank you ❤
i think it depends on your area, maybe call medspas - salons and ask around. i’ve never heard of an online course. i think hands on is best but that’s just me. -Lizzie
Which schools did you go to? I'm in Florida as well!
Hi there! Sam went to a school in Tampa and Lizzie went to Ridge Career Center!
Any schools you recommend in Miami Florida?
What is your opinion on becoming sn esthetician at 60
age is just a number! go get it!
@@VivaVitalityMedSpa thank you very much and I do have another question what are the different fields that I could get into after graduating from esthetics. I'm a very spiritual Christian

@@VivaVitalityMedSpa thank you!!
how long was your schooling before u got out?
in our state of florida it’s 260 hours. check with your area - it may be different!
@VivaVitalityMedSpa I read it's 450 hours in SC. So, how many days would 260 hours be ? another thing, is it possible to work as a certified esthecian without a licence? Do some clinics allow that?
I'm in Lakeland, FL and would love to know what schools you would recommend for central FL? Any feedback would be so helpful!
Hey neighbor! Sam and I both went to local Esthetic schools. Ridge career center and the one in Tampa. Please don’t go spending a ton of $$$ on Esthetic school. ❤️
How do i become someone who does fillers and injectibles
Hey there! It truly depends on where you are located. Some states and countries have totally different requirements. I’d recommend googling your particular area and see what the requirements are around you! 😃
What part of FL are you guys from?
lakeland
I worked 10 years as esthetician and hated every minute . So glad i am out of that industry.
I’m happy you are too.
