Training
Usually, you have to graduate from a state-licensed barber or cosmetology school. Which school? On hairstylist forums, the Aveda Institutes, a nationwide (plus British Columbia and Australia) chain, is touted by many.
Full-time programs generally last nine to 24 months. After that, you typically start as an apprentice, which means a lot of cleaning up in exchange for watching a senior stylist and then having the stylist watch you. Continuing education classes are offered, sometimes free, sponsored by a hair product manufacturer. Classes are typically about fashion, hair techniques, or product use.
