There are many opportunities that exist for employment in the beauty industry. There are a
number of prerequisites for employment such as possessing a license from the State of
Pennsylvania Board of Cosmetology or Pennsylvania State Board of Massage Therapy, having a
social security card, proof of citizenship (or permission from the US government to work) and
meeting minimum age requirements.
Factors that might prevent employment could include not being able to meet the physical
demands of the position. For example; Cosmetologists spend many hours on their feet providing
customer service – this puts a lot of pressure and stress on the feet and back. Since most
employers do pre-employment background checks, individuals with criminal records (especially
felonies) might find the job market very challenging. Different employers demand different
levels and expertise for the minimum performance standards they set for their employees. The
beauty salon is a retail environment and many employers set work hours that vary throughout the
year that may present some individuals a challenge in dealing with family or other life
responsibilities.
