Heather’s Question or Topic
Heather is a makeup artist and a first-generation college student. At first, she decided to study pharmaceutical research but hated it. However, she didn’t drop out because her parents are opposed to her idea. So Heather stopped attending classes instead.
As she went through a lot of trouble, she began to practice the art of makeup. Slowly, people started to show interest in her skill by requesting her to beautify clients. But since she does not have any experience to go pro, she determined that she needs to study in a cosmetic school.
When she went to study, she realized that she does not need a license to freelance. So she found herself in a bridal industry afterward. As she worked in an agency for a few years, she is only earning 50% of the money she put in with a hundred percent effort.
What Heather did next is she built a local business for weddings. But then she is faced with another problem where she will need a cosmetology license to acquire clients.
Gary’s Story and Advices
Some people think that college is the only path to making money. But nowadays, you can bypass the process by showcasing your skill to various social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
Move to another location where you don’t need a cosmetology certificate.
