Are you interested in the latest fashion trends? Do you enjoy working with people? Are you creative and artistic? Then why not think about becoming a Beauty Therapist!

Work in the beauty industry is both interesting and varied. Job satisfaction is high.
 
As a Beauty Therapist, you would usually work in a salon with other beauticians, hairdressers etc. Or you can, if you wish, decide to be your own boss and run a ‘mobile’ business, visiting your clients in their own homes. Whatever path you choose, it’s a job you’ll love doing, and you’ll make new friends too!
 
The great thing about the Beauty Therapist course is that you can study in your own time, at your own pace, from the comfort of home or from work. You will also have your own professional personal tutor offering full support by email and post.
