Choose a school

Not necessarily local.

And where to study.

This will directly affect your future work.

Prospects and personal development

It's a waste of time for schools not to choose.

Personally, I have been in this industry for so many years.

If the cosmetics industry doesn't get off to a good start,

The later development will be quite difficult.

To start, the first thing is to choose a school.

School didn't learn well,

After graduation, you will be an assistant or an intern.

Then it really feels like learning in vain,

Because you don't have to study as an assistant outside,

There are few opportunities for assistants to get started, and compared with the same period last year,

I chose a school and became a makeup artist after graduation.

This has many advantages in the beginning.

Usually, from assistant to makeup artist,

No foundation in makeup (that is, no contact with people in this industry),

It will take at least six months to a year to get started.

With makeup foundation,

It takes three months to six months to get started.

Being an assistant is very outrageous, so,

At first, choosing a makeup school was more important than anything else.

The contrast here is that it is better to study as an assistant outside.

Is it better to go to school to study?

I believe that people who have just started to learn makeup have this confusion.

Personally, from my work experience,

It would be much better to choose a school. Before I touched makeup,

I am also an assistant, thinking that I can study while working.

But you can't learn anything as an assistant,

Because the photo studio actually only needs a few makeup artists,

If the assistant becomes a makeup artist,

Then other makeup artists have competitors,

Then a work unit usually needs an assistant to help.

So judging from the management mode of this studio or other work units,

It's hard for an assistant to become a makeup artist, and then,

As an apprentice, you have little influence on other makeup artists.

On the contrary, helping them can help them a lot.

Why do they want to improve your ability and make you their opponent?

Threaten them? Whether you study well or not,

It has nothing to do with makeup artists.

So summing up my personal experience and management mode,

Being an assistant is difficult to learn.

According to industry survey statistics,

The success rate of being an assistant makeup artist is less than 10%.

Of course, if you are lucky, you may learn technology.

Because I also have a friend who spent more than a year from assistant to makeup artist.

However, it takes much more time and suffering than in school.

So being an assistant is your luck.

For choosing a school, I don't think it is necessary to be local.

I have been to Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai and Changsha for makeup.

Wait for relatively good first-and second-tier cities.

From the perspective of cities, Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing will definitely be better.

During the makeup process,

I have also been to some of these cities. Relatively speaking,

A school that feels good,

Before I go to the audition,

Many of them are just hearsay,

There was no field trip, but after understanding it on the spot,

I found that many advertisements in some schools are quite serious.

I feel the skills that all the teachers found in the audition course.

Is a teacher promoted from the students,

The makeup face of the on-site class teacher is not clean enough.

The shape is the same, and the sense of fashion is not strong enough.

Some are also unreasonable in color matching.

So from my personal experience,

No matter what you think of this school,

Be sure to go to the school for a field trip before deciding whether to sign up.

Don't be fooled by appearances,

And the first-tier cities mentioned just now,

This is the case in many schools.

Some teachers are promoted from students.

So I want to emphasize one more point here.

Choosing a school is the main choice for teachers and teaching.

Not a city, not a good city,

The school must be good. If there are no good teachers in the school,

The skills you graduate are not good, and the more prosperous the city is,

The smaller your foothold is.

As for the certificate, this is not very important.

Because of the advanced certificate,

Now, as long as you pass the exam,

Without much technical content,

If you really feel that your skills have reached a certain level,

You can take part in some big competitions,

This award-winning certificate will be compared with the examination certificate.

Gold content is much higher. Then,

You get the certificate, you usually work outside,

What others don't look at is to try on makeup and set wages.

So personally, if you don't have to take the exam,

Try not to take this card, it won't help much.
