Do you have to like to touch people for an esthetician career?

Question

i am interested in going to school for skin care/esthetician. i like everything about it except i don't really love to touch people, it makes me a little uncomfortable. is this something you get over after time and get used to? or is it something that needs to be there from the start?

Answer 1

You have to be comfortable with touching people because you have to do it on a daily basis.It depends on WHY you're not comfortable. Shy? You'll get over it.Grossed out? Probably not.

Answer 2

my sister only lasted a year because she couldn't take the touching people either, i can't say if you would get used to it or not.

Answer 3

I would rather do that then giving body massages.
