Why Follow a Career Path in Beauty and Aesthetics at Kent Beauty School?

As an ever growing industry, more and more people are asking ‘why to choose a career in beauty and aesthetics?’ Throughout this blog, I will hopefully answer this question from all perspectives that why kent beauty school is the best choice when it comes to following your career path in beauty and aesthetics.

  • WHO can flourish in the would of beauty and aesthetics?
  • WHAT treatments can I offer and what do I need to set up?
  • WHEN can I start offering these treatments?
  • WHERE can I work?
  • WHY would I choose this to enter this industry when it’s already so saturated?

WHO can Flourish in the Industry?

The simple answers is anyone and everyone. I first entered the world of beauty when I was just 16 at a mainstream college in east London. I was in a class of 24 girls and we attended the college 5 days a week over the course of 2 years covering level 2 & 3 beauty therapy. These courses still happen however the learning journey has changed drastically.

You are now able to complete anything from a 1 day lash course to a 9 month full internationally recognized VRQ in private colleges all over the country. These tend to be smaller classes and will usually have 2 groups depending on age. So whatever age you are, you can feel comfortable completing your course with people of a similar age at Kent beauty school.

Full time courses are very convenient for people who have a lot of time on their hands however what of you currently work somewhere and you are looking for a career change? Shorter one-day courses are readily available for anyone who wants to transition into their new career path slowly. We have many students at eclipse school of beauty that started off doing a one day lash course and slowly increased their treatments and decreased the hours at their current job.

If you have other commitments including hobbies and children, beauty and aesthetics can be a fantastic way of working around these. You can choose courses on weekends or days you have free and build your career around your commitments without having to give them up. So you see whoever you are and whatever you currently do beauty and aesthetics can be versatile enough to fit into anyone’s life.

WHAT are Beauty and Aesthetics?

Below is a list of the most popular treatments currently available in the industry:

  • Dermal fillers
  • Microblading
  • SPMU micro pigmentation
  • Botox
  • Profhilo
  • Plasma skin tightening
  • Aqualyx fat dissolving
  • Dermaplaning
  • Microneedling
  • Dermaroller
  • BB Glow
  • Classic lashes
  • Russian lashes
  • Lash lift
  • Brow lamination
  • Hii Pen
  • Scalp micro pigmentation
  • SPMU removal
  • Skin peels
  • LED light therapy
  • Vampire facial

WHEN Can I Start Offering Treatment?

As soon as you are qualified and fully insured then you are legally allowed to offer treatments. Many training schools will provide you with a certificate following your training so that you are able to gain insurance straight away. As long as you are confident if the treatment you are offering and you have the correct equipment then you are ready to go. Many new therapists offer introductory price options to get clients initially and build their clientele from there.

WHERE Can I offer These Treatments?

There has been much speculation recently around where people can perform these treatments as the industry has evolved from salons being the only place to cater to clients. While salons and clinics are still a popular choice to work, many therapists now choose to set up either within their own home or rent a space in another person’s shop of the same or similar profession.

This is a great option to work for yourself, the hours you wish and to be able to fit your work around your current commitments as mentioned previously. As long as you gain a license for any licensed treatments, there are no rules regarding where you are able to perform beauty and aesthetics treatments.

WHY Would I Choose a Career in Beauty and Aesthetics?

Many people will look at this industry and assume it is already saturated and this will put them off. Having been in this industry for now 17 years, I have seen a constant need for more and more therapists. As the need for treatments increase, so do the need for therapists and in turn, so does the need for more courses.

Most beauty and aesthetic treatments need to be repeated continually so once you have a client for one treatment, you can set them up for continuous appointments. There are new and exciting revolutionary treatments coming into the industry all the time which many therapists choose to do or not to do. Each therapist will develop their own list of treatments catered to their individual client needs.

Dermal Fillers & Botox – Medics vs Non-Medics

Here at eclipse school of beauty and aesthetics, we pride ourselves on offering the very best training courses on Dermal Fillers and Botox as well as Profhilo and Sunekos. We do both foundation and advanced training courses at our academy. We take health and safety along with client safety at the very top of our priority. Injecting comes second to this.

Non-medics are often frowned upon by the medic community when it comes to dermal filler and Anti wrinkle injections training and treatments. However is this really something that should be the case?

Two of our aesthetic instructors Adam and Annie take on the question in their new podcast series.

  • Are all non-medics who have received training in Anti wrinkle injections and fillers a risk?
  • Is it possible that non-medics can be just as competent as medics with fillers and Anti wrinkle injections?
  • Is there a difference between non-medic Anti wrinkle injections and filler training and medic training?
  • Can non-medics who receive Anti wrinkle injections and filler training really get to a level where they can safely administer the treatments?
  • Is the correct support available to non-medics from medics with regards fillers and Anti wrinkle injections?

These are just one of the questions that are raised in this topical and current podcast but two people who are extremely passionate about the treatments and the industry in general.

What is your opinion? Leave us a comment down below and let us know how you feel about this interesting subject.

We believe at eclipse that we can offer a training course for both Anti wrinkle injections and fillers as well as other treatments like profhilo and sunekos. That we can offer a place that both medics and non-medics can go to learn in an environment that will enable them to go about their career in aesthetics in an ethical and moralistic way. With both competence and confidence.

Our Anti wrinkle injections and filler training courses are thought out and designed by extremely experienced professionals with huge amounts of knowledge. Our facilities are of the highest standard and are available in multiple locations around the southeast of England. Brentwood Essex. Bexleyheath London / Kent. Ashford Kent.

We use high-quality products from companies like Allergen. Revolax. Juvederm. Profhilo. and more. our consumables are also high quality from Clinell, BD microfine, Teoxane and more.

We work with reputable suppliers for all of our products and there would never be any sign of grey imports or corner-cutting at any stage. Surely with all of this added together, we can offer a filler and Anti wrinkle injections training offering that will enable people to become masters of aesthetics and go about their career in the correct way.

Many techniques are taught. Including on our advanced lip filler course. The very popular Russian lip training Technique. We use cannulas on the advanced course for a very different way of administering filler products. When we teach our training courses we spend a lot of time on health and safety.

Hygiene and most importantly facial anatomy. Not just where the various veins, arteries, and nerves travel but more importantly the depth they sit at. This aids us in being safe and always working across the correct plane under the skin to avoid any unnecessary complications and to be as safe as possible.

Complications are often neglected and we spend a lot of time covering off how we diagnose our clients. How we treat them in the event of a problem. And how we then look after them after the fact.

Consultations and setting expectations is a huge part of our Anti wrinkle injections and filler training. If a client expects a result which is unobtainable they are always going to have a negative experience. On the flip side of this its also very easy to scare a client with all of the details of the procedure and its important to help them understand how we overcome a lot of the risk with incredible knowledge, experience and safety precautions such as aspiration.

A lot of the time aspirations are too short. A mere moment of time. With the density of filler. The thickness or gauge of the needle. And the pressures involved. It can take a good few seconds to see a potential flashback or positive aspiration. We teach to always do a 10-second aspiration to make sure you’re as safe as possible. And always see that potential flashback to avoid injecting into an artery.

If you have any questions about any of our Anti wrinkle injections or filler training courses in Kent or Essex or London. Please do get in contact with us via social media or email or phone.

We look forward to seeing you at one of our Dermal Fillers & Botox training courses soon.

It is a technique to enhance your natural brows. Giving you a full uniform eyebrow shape. This is the definitive solution for eyebrows which are sparse and lack symmetry, with this we can realign the brows with this specific technique to reveal the desired shape and fullness.

This treatment solves chaotic brow issues, creating volume and fullness while providing a lustrous well-kept brow shape which lasts up to 2 months! Eyebrow lamination also supports brow growth by creating a protective film over the hair.

It is the best technique for taming tough and boisterous hairs as it sets them in place, every hair lies in the same direction. Providing a just brushed through effect.

With eyebrow lamination there will be no need to fill your brows in, your brows will look thicker, fuller and straighter in the perfect shape.

  • Want to improve the shape of their brows
  • Want a break from pencilling their brows in

Eyebrow Lamination is perfect for people thinking of having Semi-permanent Makeup as this allows you to fully appreciate the benefits of not having to pencil them in everyday!

How does it work?

Step by Step of how the treatment is conducted

  1. Like all treatments you will begin with a consultation, to see the brows you are working with and also to assess the shape and style to compliment your clients face
  2. A solution is applied to the brows to make the hair straight and flexible
  3. A hydration serum is used to hydrate the hair (this stops the hair from becoming dry and nourishes the hair during the treatment)
  4. A natural coloured tint is applied to the brows to give them a boost (tint will be discussed with client depending on their natural eyebrow colour)
  5. Lastly a nourishing serum is applied to the brows
  6. You will then go over aftercare with the client to make sure they know how to look after their brows to get the best long lasting results.

Eyebrow lamination process takes around 30-45 minuets and lasts up to 2 months depending on how well the client sticks to the after care

Aqualyx Fat dissolving. What we’ve all been waiting for!

 

Introduction to fat dissolving injections.

Aqualyx could possibly be the fat dissolving treatment at everyone’s been waiting for. This advanced new technique can be used in the face and body to great effect at the Eclipse School of Beauty. For small areas such as the jowls and chin, just one sessions can intensely reduce fat and return a more youthful and definite facial contour. For larger areas like, bingo wings and bums you may need up to 5 sessions to see dramatic results.

What is Aqualyx?

Aqualyx is a water-based solution that is injected into the fatty tissue in the face or body, it surrounds the cells and terminates them. The remains of the fat cells are then expelled by the body safely as waste. Aqualyx is perfect for people who want to get rid of those stubborn areas of fat in their face or body. This treatment has bee clinically proven for these purposes.

Treatment regime.

The time of the treatment will depend on the size of the area being treated.

It can take between 30-60 minuets per treatment and you typically require 2-8 treatments 4 weeks apart. Some people may see substantial results after 1 or 2 sessions.

Treatment for fat underneath the neck and chin, may require 1-2 treatments. While treatments for body fat may require 8 treatments

We must make it extremely clear that Aqualyx is not a substitute for diet and exercise and cannot fix you if you are overweight. It is for stubborn areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise.

Hii Pen No Injection Fillers – What it is and how it works.

What is Hii Pen?

Hii Pen Fillers is the new reinvented treatment for bigger fuller lips without the injections. It is a quite simplistic device that engenders enough pressure to launch Hyaluron Acid into the skin.

Whats the difference between no needle Hii Pen injections to old-style needle injections?

Hii Pen Filler is a non-aggressive tool and distributes hyaluronic acid into the filler into the skin by causing pressure. During treatment the client will surprisingly minimal pain – it does not hurt virtually as much as injectable filler. Comparing them both with Hii Pen there is less bruising, swelling or needle marks.

What is involved in the procedure?

The procedure is quite simple, the HA (hyaluronic acid) filler inserted into the skin is completely safe as the body produces it. It is impossible for anyone to have an allergic reaction from the HA filler itself.
The more Hyaluronic Acid inside the epidermis and dermis layer of the skin, the more water is retained keeping its moisture and making the appearance of the skin more youthful.

What is HA (hyaluronic acid)?

Our Skin cells produce Hyaluronic Acid naturally in a proposal to maintain moisture levels. Due to ageing and environmental aggressors those levels tend to dip. Scientific studies have shown that HA helps improve skin hydration and production of collagen, maintain skin elasticity, and even has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that help with wound healing.
This is why such treatments involving HA have been created to prolong these levels and create longer youthful skin.

Plasma Skin Tightening. What is it and how will it benefit you as a beautician?

Plasma is known for its success with all its non-surgical benefits such as, Non surgical eye lift, skin tag removal, tummy tightening, stretch marks and so much more available.

FAQ

How long does it last?

This all depends on the skin condition and amount of care taken, for first timers this will last a week or just over. Although having this done multiple times will lead to increased longevity and more coverage.

We advise for all first time clients to come back for a second session at Eclipse School of Beauty in order to provide better coverage and prolonged results.

Is there any down time?

No you can go back to day to day life however the bb glow treatment should be left untouched for 24 hours, your skin may look shiny for this time and gradually start to feel dry which is the skins natural response.

How many treatments are needed?

This treatment is great before a special event or weekend away, however if you would like the results to last much longer we recommend building up coverage over the course of 3-4 treatments spread equally over maximum 10 days apart.

 

Does it hurt?

The treatment is a little uncomfortable on some areas however tightness and tingling after treatment is completely normal.

As a Semi Permanent Makeup Artist, why is it important to be trained in both Microblading AND Machine Brow Tattooing?

As a Semi-Permanent Makeup Artist, why is it important to be trained in both Microblading AND Machine Brow Tattooing?

 

Microblading and Machine Brow Semi-Permanent makeup is completely different procedures that require incredibly opposing techniques and create such versatile results.

Although some clients will often suit either one of these finishes to the Brow, it is also common for someone to suit one finish, yet another be completely inappropriate for them. Not only is the aesthetic finish to the brow different, but the length of time before the brows start to fade is also different too.

Microblading

Microblading is a much faster fading procedure, that depending on the client skin type. It can sometimes only last up to just a few months- contrasting with the finish of Machine Brows, which often at minimum can last up to 18 months.

Of course, the healing and lasting process is also dependent on many contributing factors such as the attention you pay to the aftercare guide given, skin type, sun exposure, washing routine, soaps and cleansers/shampoo and conditioner used etc.

If for example, Microblading did not hold particularly well on a client, by being qualified in Machine Brow Tattooing too, you will then be able to offer your client an alternative technique that would perhaps be the solution to a longer lasting Brow!

It is also common for some people to not always do their market research before choosing the beauty consultant they visit for the treatments- which results in unsatisfied customers with a tattooed brow they weren’t hoping for, incorrect pigmentation and undesired shapes.

By offering both Brow techniques, you are then able to rectify existing concerns by carrying out a correction treatment with the more appropriate procedure.

All client requirements and desires are different, which is why, as the Artist- it is most affective not only for your personal business to offer both, but for a client to feel like they are being offered a treatment that genuinely is the right thing for them.

The beauty industry is quickly, and vastly growing every day; so, as a professional within the industry, it is a great opportunity for professional growth and development to understand the various different techniques and styles available in order to keep up with trends, but also eliminate industry competition by offering the most up to date treatments from the offset.
