Tired of Your Career? Barber College Could Be the Answer
Newsflash… barber school is an exciting alternative to a boring or dead-end job! If you’re seriously thinking about quitting your job, consider the possibility of transitioning into the beauty industry as a barber or hairstylist.
Currently, there are several great reasons to make this career move. A few of the most popular reasons are highlighted here.
Easy School Schedule
A barber school program will typically take up less of your time than many other programs or degrees. At Evergreen, the 1600-hour program holds classes on a three-day-week schedule. Not only do the classes include hands-on training, you’ll also learn about the business side of the industry. You will explore subjects like marketing and customer development, which will be great assets when you open your own shop.
No Income Ceiling
As a barber, there is no limit to the amount of money you can earn. On average, barbers in the U.S. earn around $25,000. Not only that, most clients end up leaving tips in addition to the standard fee.
Job Security
As long as people have hair, there’ll be a need for barbers. Of course, it also helps that there has been a steady increase in demand for workers in the beauty industry, such as barbers and stylists. If you’re looking for a job you can feel safe in having until you retire, a career as a barber is a good fit for you.
Fun Working Environment
Let’s face it, a fun working environment typically makes the day go faster. In the words of successful barber, Drew Danburry, “I hang out with great people. I listen to music and talk to friends. It really is like hanging out with friends all day long.”
