Do you have that urging in your heart and creative bones.....to be a make-up artist!?! if so read on sister, or brother.....and here are a list of schools...that may possibly be close to you...if not, you can always google : make-up schools....
and don't waste your time at a beauty school...they'll teach you nothing about make-up except to scrub blush on your cheeks while you smile really big...ha ha ha ha ha
I am going to start doing MAKE-UP "Glaminars" (like a seminar but, wayyyyyy more fun!)....starting in LA, because that's close! ha ha ha
It will be a super fun and pretty, time to spend with me...and I'm going to teach tips and tricks that you don't learn in any schools....
*custom face charts for people-with a list of custom colors that are perfect for each person
*how to play up your unique-to-you, features
* how to contour and highlight...to bring out the "dazzle" in your face
*and fun classes like, how to be the Hottest Bride in Town- how to do bridal make-up
*how to get started as a make-up artist...and how to make money right away!!!
*girls day out-of-sexy make-up how to...
*everything you never learned about make-up...
and so many more ideas....
I'm so excited to get to meet you guys at these "make-up glaminars"....let me know if you guys are interested in these...starting really soon in Los Angeles area...and if it's popular, I'd love to get to visit more cities.....
Questions you want to ask the schools?
1. who are the teachers? are they currently working in the industry? what is the student to teacher ratio?
2. do the courses fit the needs of the area of make-up you want to go into?
3. do they provide a make-up kit? and if so, what's in it?
4. what type of curriculum do they use? how much hands-on instruction is included?
5. how many hours are required to complete the program?
6. is there a career placement or internship option available?
