What does a Beautician do?

A Beautician uses specialized tools and products to perform beauty services on a client’s hair, nails, or skin. While the job involves different beauty procedures, a Beautician can specialize in hair design, hair styling, cosmetic procedures, manicures and pedicures, or related areas. They typically work in beauty salons, clinics, stores, spas, or hotels.

Beauticians may work full-time or part-time. You may also hire Beauticians who are independent contractors. Beauticians typically require clients to schedule appointments in advance, but may also offer walk-in services at a salon or spa. They collaborate with Assistant Beauticians and Master Beauticians in their work environment. Beauticians typically work flexible hours, and you may ask a candidate to be available during the weekends.

    Beautician job description FAQs

    What are the top qualities of a good Beautician?

    A good Beautician must be friendly and approachable to clients and senior management. As professionals, they must know how to handle different personalities and be passionate about providing beauty procedures and treatments. A good Beautician must love learning and be willing to keep up with the latest beauty trends and best practices. They must also know how to meet a client’s needs and have the educational and training requirements to succeed in their role.

    What should you look for in a Beautician's resume?

    Look for Beauticians with strong communication skills. An excellent candidate also has other qualities, like interpersonal and customer service skills and keen attention to detail. They need to be active listeners to ensure they understand and can meet the clients’ expectations. A Beautician’s resume should include details about their experience performing beauty procedures for clients. Look for candidates who completed on-the-job training with their previous employer, through an apprenticeship, or in volunteer roles.

    Who does a Beautician report to?

    A Beautician reports to a Master Beautician or Senior Beautician in a salon, spa, hotel, or store. Master Beauticians have more knowledge, skills and experience than regular Beauticians, so Beauticians typically take direction from a Master Beautician. They also meet Master Beauticians or Senior Beauticians for guidance whenever they encounter a challenge. Assistant Beauticians report to a Beautician.

    What are the differences between a Cosmetologist and a Beautician?

    Beauticians and Cosmetologists perform similar functions. Both professionals enhance their client’s physical appearance and require a license to practice in their specific province or territory. However, there are few notable differences. A Cosmetologist has more training in beauty procedures and treatments than a Beautician. They may also take specialist courses while in school. On the other hand, a Beautician takes general training on makeup application, nail art, and hairstyling.
