  1. no, there are a lot of people too lazy to get out of bed and work these days.  cosmetologists make good money in the right spot.  i really like my stylist and tip her well.  if you like what you do and are happy, who cares what other people think?!


  2. seems to me that hollywood wouldn't exists without cosmetologists.

    i don't think anything else needs to be said.    :)

  3. NO AND WHY WOULD U CARE? IF ITS SOMETHING U LIKE DOING, JUST DO IT! OBVIOUSLY ITS NOT A DUMB PROFESSION BECAUSE PPL GET FACIALS AND THEIR MAKEUP DONE ALL THE TIME. THATS AN AWESOME JOB!

  4. No, many of them seem to be intelligent and they often seem to enjoy their job. There's nothing wrong with that.


  5. Not stupid, just superfluous.

  6. no i dont.

    if you like working with people and are good at talking and stuff then its fine.

    usually cosmetolegists are pretty so i think its fine.

    as long as youre happy with it then its not stupid.

  7. What's dumb about it? A profession exists because there is a need or a want for it ... so you are fulfilling a need .

  8. No.   If you are following your own heart.  To me, it is stupid for people to refuse to work.  The day any person thinks she is smart is the beginning of becoming stupid.  Like yourself but do not fall in love with yourself.  Like a politician.  It is a wise person who does what pleases her.  Show me some body who calls another person "stupid" and I will show you an idiot.  The test of who you are is your own self image and respect. You do not need to apologize for what you do.   Work hard and treat customers in an honest way.  Does not matter if you are working in NYC or a small town in the country.  I guess you are only stupid if you say you are.  Never say that!   Never surrender your faith in your ability and treat people with fairness and respect.  

  9. No...and for the record it shouldnt matter what people think when it comes to choosing your profession. Its your life and you wanna do what feels right to you, puts the food on your table and pays your bill. A lot of professions wouldnt exist if people cared too much of what others thought.

    If it was a dumb profession you wont have any customers or it wouldnt exist at all. Smart people are the one who see a need/niche and run away with it. So long as somebody out there is willing to part with their money for goods & services, somebody is going to be smart about it and get that money. The dumb ones are the one who say "I wouldnt do that!" and end up starving coz they dont have a job.

  10. Some people may think that but I am sure they have no idea how difficult the test you have to take to get licensed is.  

  11. Like hair dressers, cosmetologist may have greater job satisfaction than many other kinds of work.

    So, if you feel happy and dumb, read books, be willing to discuss interesting topics with clients, you'll be intelligent.

    Some books:

    "Expecting Adam," Martha Beck,

    "The Great Divorce," C. S. Lewis,

    "Soul Mates and Twin Flames," Elizabeth Clare Prophet,

    "The Giver," Lois Lowry,

    "Testimony of Light," Helen Greaves,

    "Freakonomics," S. Levitt,

    "Shakespeare in the Light of Sacred Art," Martin Lings,

    "Nineteen Ways of Looking at Wang Wei," Weinberger,
