Answer 1

Going to cosmetology school isn't just going in and playing with hair all day. You have text books, you have tests. To really understand hair is to learn every technical and chemical aspect and terminology related to the hair, skin, and body. Most American schools require a minimum of 1500 hours. If you go full time, you will be going to school five days a week, eight hours a day for one year.

As far as a good school around you, you have to do the research. visit the schools and take tours. You want a school that will challenge you, you want it to be hard. If it isn't, you're  just wasting your money.

It is very possible to support yourself on a hairstylists income. Don't expect to be rolling in money the day after you finish school, but there are plenty of salon chains out there that offer a guaranteed salary and benefits that will offer you a steady paycheck.
