What Can Estheticians Do?
Licensed estheticians have a wide variety of opportunities available to them. They can choose careers such as:
- Salon/spa owner
- Makeup artist
- Beauty or medical spa esthetician
- Hair removal specialist
- Beauty blogger / influencer
Which services they offer depends on where they choose to go, however, during their time as a beauty school student, they can expect to learn how to provide:
Facials and Peels
Facials are one of the most popular services that estheticians can provide. They are more than just putting product on the face and washing it off. Estheticians have to know the science of the ingredients in order to choose the right products for their clients and understand that treatments aren’t one type treats all. Facials can be customized to suit each client’s individual needs, whether they have dry, oily, or combination skin or if they have specific concerns like acne or wrinkles!
When coming for a facial or peel, make sure to discuss with your esthetician what your skin type is in order to get a product best suited for your skin. If your skin feels particularly dry, your esthetician can provide a good moisturizer. Need to cut down on your face’s natural oils? They can recommend the right product for that, too!
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. Microdermabrasion has a number of benefits, and there’s no real DIY method. It’s best left to a licensed esthetician. Microdermabrasions exfoliate the top layer of your skin and remove any dead cells, leaving room for your fresh skin. The biggest perk: it’s painless with no recovery time.
Dermaplane
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that involves using a surgical scalpel to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells and hair (peach fuzz) from the face. There are many benefits, including:
Exfoliation: Dermaplaning removes dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, revealing smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin.
Improved Product Absorption: By removing the dead skin cells, skincare products can penetrate deeper into the skin.
Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: It can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production.
A Full Relaxation Experience
Looking for the ultimate relaxation experience? Estheticians don’t just help your skin achieve a new glow, they can also help you relax with a variety of different services, including:
- Hot Stone Therapy. In hot stone therapy water-heated stones are placed to relax muscles and increase circulation.
- Salt Glow Body Treatment. This salt body scrub exfoliates your skin and leaves it glowing.
- Body Wraps. Body wraps are often done with a variety of natural materials and are designed to help the skin by removing extra fluid and flushing toxins from the body.
If you haven’t tried one of these treatments yet, our student salon is a great place to go.
Make-Up Artistry? Yes, Please!
Looking for a future in makeup artistry? Esthetics is a good place to start. Not only do estheticians get to learn proper application techniques, they get knowledge about skin types and the anatomy of the face to help give the best look to any client. This can be beneficial for clients who are attending special events like weddings or proms, or who simply want to enhance their natural beauty with makeup! Makeup application services can include everything from basic makeup application to more elaborate looks.
Smooth Skin With Waxing
Waxing is a great way to remove unwanted hair. It saves time on shaving, plus gives you longer-lasting results and can help reduce the appearance of hair regrowth over time. It involves the application of warm wax to the skin, which is then removed along with the hair. Estheticians are trained to do more than just a brow or underarm wax, they can also do a bikini or even a brazilian wax.
Long, Natural-Looking Eyelash Extensions
Tired of clumpy mascara or hard-to-apply fake eyelashes? A common, semi-permanent solution to achieving longer lashes are eyelash extensions, which can be provided by estheticians. Some of the benefits of eyelash extensions is that they create the full lash look without the use of mascara and the heavy nature of false lashes.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are another popular service that estheticians offer. They involve the application of a chemical solution to the skin to remove the top layer of dead skin cells. Chemical peels can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. They can also help improve the overall texture and tone of the skin, leaving your clients with a brighter, more youthful complexion.
Spray Tanning
Adding an extra touch of color to your skin is another aspect of achieving beautiful skin. While some types of tanning can damage your skin, a spray tan can give you the color you’re looking for, without the harmful rays of traditional tanning techniques.
