When it comes to beauty consultants and the tasks that they perform, you will find that it varies. Different beauty consultants often offer different services.

When it comes to working as a beauty consultant, many hopeful beauty consultants wonder if any experience is required. As previously mentioned, many beauty consultants start their own businesses, but beauty salons or even beauty supply stores hire others. If you are interested in starting your own business and working for yourself, you do not necessarily need to have any prior beauty training or experience, although it will likely help. However, if you were interested in working for an existing beauty salon or supply store there is a good chance that there may be some education requirements or work experience requirements.

As it was previously mentioned, beauty consultants often advised their clients on how they should dress, wear makeup, or wear their hair, often for a special occasion. If you are interested in working as a beauty consultant, you will charge your clients for using your services. Different beauty consultants charge their own fees, so you can do the same, but you may want to see what your competition is charging. This will give you the opportunity to make sure that your rates stay fair and competitive.

These special occasions and events may include starting a new job, a job interview, a wedding, an elegant dinner, an important business meeting and so forth. These are the individuals that you may want to spend most of your advertising dollars on.

Click here to see my Squidoo Lenses for Sale


Hello world!  I mean, hi there my name is Loretta and I'm new at this Squidoo lens creation so go easy on me.  I've been working from home for the past 7 years now and I love every minute of it.  I honestly don't think I could go back to being an in office, stressed out, underpaid person.  Working casually as an independent contractor from the comfort of my own office, starbucks, or wherever I'd like to work from.

My husband and I have four boys ranging in age from 6 to 10.  You'll probably find the occassional picture of them in my lenses depending on what I'm writing about.  Life is light hearted and fun around our house, if you're ever in the neighborhood stop by and we'll rent some movies and have a few drinks!

I'm also a frequent blogger!  I have a few blogs, and will probably add a few more over the next year.  Blogging is addictive.  

My sites & blogs;

Stitching the Night Away ~ this was my very first website ever!  It may not be a money maker or anything spectacular but I love it all the same.

Craft Blog ~ full of project ideas, pictures, and cross stitch chatter, this is a subdomain of Stitching the Night Away. 

Just Not Martha ~ Perfect is boring.  Being a housewife is not a category I like to fall into.  Women get this sterotype thing even in today's modern world.  I hope that all changes someday.  In the meantime I'll share my views, and my imperfections with you.  If nothing else it might give you a laugh.   

Gadget Girl Accessories ~ this is one of my newest blogs and still going through some growing pains.  It's all about gadgets, blogs, internet  and technology with a few girly things thrown in there. 

Thoughts Out of My Head ~ This was my first blog!  Full of rambling thoughts and daily happenings in our life.
