During the time I worked there, there were 2 male students at different times. The one guy was really flirty and hit on me, even though I was 20 years older and married. lol The different states have different lengths of time for the programs. Some states offer reciprocity, which means that you might be able to work in different states with your certification. The donating service is so kind, but also check with your state. Some states don't allow off site care, because of hygenic concerns.
When you graduate, it'll take you awhile to build up a clientele. Beginners usually rent a chair in an established shop, and some places take a commssion on top of the chair rent. Be sure you and your barber have it on paper, so you know what to look forward to.
I think that we should all consider jobs that can't be outsourced. We're always going to need hair and beauty care. If you're good at it, you'll love it
