MESSAGE TO UNLICENSED TECHS WORKING AT HOME:
Having a license means that you are capable to understand the safety and health of the client as a priority to your career.  Experience working at different beauty businesses with your license can expose you to ideas, visions, connections and training that makes it possible to become a successful business owner of your own professional salon(s) or spa(s) in the future. Having a license gives you more career options later when you become a master at your trade. As your books fill you will have less time for school so get your license now!
