Your Esthetics Coach

Book excerpt: LEARN the 6 Steps to Becoming a Successful Esthetician Behind the Chair The skin care industry is a rapidly growing and exciting industry to be a part of. As the industry expands, the need for highly trained Estheticians is at an all-time high. It takes a lot of hard work, time, education and training, with the right "tableside manner" to be successful in this extremely competitive industry. I want to explore all of these elements throughout the book and share some lessons and pearls of wisdom that can help put you on the fast track to success. As a licensed Cosmetologist with an emphasis on Esthetics for over three decades, I have had the blessing of working with all aspects of the business of beauty and skin care. From being an Educator my entire career and having taught thousands of Estheticians over the years, I have often been asked to write a book to share my knowledge. My goal with this book is to guide, share, and mentor you in most aspects of your esthetics business and to empower you to be the best skin care expert within. I am often asked, "How did you get here? What's your secret to success?" Most successful people can most likely contribute their success to a life event, a circumstance, a person or people, or an opportunity. I view mine as a lifetime of events, a lifetime of circumstances, a lifetime of people, and a lifetime of amazing opportunities.
