Career Exploration

As a child we all dream of being doctors, and veterinarians and well I wanted to be a “pumpkin grower” when I was little, but my thoughts on careers have changed. For my career exploration assignment I have chosen three careers that I could actually see myself being successful in, not only in the fall when the pumpkins come out, but all year round. My first career chosen was a cosmetologist. I started thinking about this career option last year when I took my first cosmetology class and my teacher was very impressed with my work, being a year younger than the rest of the class. Right now I am taking cosmetology and I really enjoy it, so that is why I chose cosmetology as my first career option. My next career choice was mostly a shock to me, but I chose anesthesiology because it was one of my results on the career matchmaker test. After looking into this career I realized anesthesiologists make good money, so that was an added bonus! As for my last career, this idea also came from my matchmaker test, but I thought it was a good choice for me because it deals with some cosmetology and also fashion – two things I am interested in. That is why I thought image consultant would be a good career choice for me. In my career I want to obviously make good money and enjoy going to work every day, so hopefully this exploration will help me decide which path to go down.
The path to becoming a cosmetologist is for sure one of the shorter paths taken. In most areas around the world a student must have completed high school with a diploma and must go to cosmetology school get the proper licensing to practice this skill on the public. For me, if I do decide to continue in cosmetology I would want to open my own salon and be my own boss. Being a cosmetologist comes with its number of duties and a responsibility, but having your own business adds to that number. Some of the duties being a cosmetologist include, making clients happy, and the

    A cosmetologist is a professional who provides his services in a variety of fields; this could be hair makeovers, makeup, manicuring, and many other similar profiles. A cosmetologist does not always work on a single profile they could be doing more than one field. But their primary motive is to make people look beautiful and feel fresh. The most common places where cosmetologists are employed in are beauty shops, as most of their job is carried from the beauty salon. Other places in which cosmetologists work in are spas. Some of the licensed cosmetologists may prefer to start their own beauty business. To become a cosmetologist there are specialized courses which are needed. For example basic safety and sanitation course, hair care course, aesthetics and hair removal course, nail care course, facial course, and salon management course.

    Why Cosmetology

    • 685 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Firstly, my choice to be a Cosmetologist has been an on-going interest of mine since I was about four years old. At that time , when I was four years old, I was in the bath at my Aunt Rhoda’s backwoods farm house. She had heard a gunshot , so she went to check where the gun shot had come from. When doing so , she had left her razor for shaving her legs on the bathtub shelf. I grabbed it, being the curious child I was, and shaved off my eye brow. Another reason I chose to be a Cosmetologist is because when I was about 7 years old my parents bought me tons of Barbie dolls to play with and ruin. One day when we were at Toys ‘R’ Us I saw a huge Barbie doll head without a body that you could do her hair. So as most kids my age , I begged them to buy it for me., but they ended up buying me two of them one for Christmas and one for my birthday. After I got the dolls I played with them almost every day and attempted to braid their hair. I also washed their hair when I was in the bath tub. That is one reason why I chose to be in Cosmetology at ICTC.…
