Sorry but that's all part of the embalmers job

Answer 2

umm i would be scared as i dont know what but yes you need a license.

Answer 3

Creepy....but yeah, I agree with the others. Go to the funeral home and ask.

Answer 4

I do believe that you need a license.

My friend's mom does the dead peoples hair, and she has a license.

Just try searching around for makeup schools.

Answer 5

Interesting career choice. You should probably go to a funeral home and ask.  

Answer 6

Talk to someone at a funeral parlor. I read somewhere Whoopie Goldberg used to do that before she broke into acting. Maybe you can write to her in care of the View and see if you get an answer.

Answer 7

oh wow. Any college or university with beauty courses are good and make-up schools, but you will have to look for them near where you live yourself especially as you didn't say where you are from.

I think you do need some type of liscense the best thing is to go into a funeral place and ask about it.

Answer 8

They're called "morticians" and they work in funeral homes.

You would be responsible for helping embalm and applying cosmetics to the body.
