Beauty & Fitness

Hi Kayra,
There is a growing demand in the fashion industry for make-up artists and hair stylists. Even in daily life, both men and women are happily splurging on brands and stylists to make them look good. Be it the traditional wedding make-up, parties or fashion events, the artistes are finding innovative ways to give their clients a satisfying look.
Make-up artistry is a highly competitive industry in which you gain success by the quality of services you offer. This profession will not only justify your artistic skills but if you gain a good command, then money and fame will follow you.
You can open your own training institute and become an entrepreneur! To do so, you need to know about beautification techniques, business licenses and business plans as well as location, secure financing, professional and experienced teachers and marketing.
Work as a freelance make-up artist:
The basic duties of a freelance make-up expert are no different from a permanently employed artist, the only difference being that the former is not a salaried individual working in a salon but works on assignment basis. You need some experience of working with salons before you start working as a freelancer.
There are various institutes which offer such courses. Some of the institutes in India are:
Christine Valmy International Academy of Beauty, Mumbai
Aashmeen Munjaals Star salon n Academy, Delhi
J D Institute of Fashion Technology, Bangalore
Lakme Academy, Mumbai & Delhi
Loreal Arth Academy, Mumbai
All the best.
