possibly too niche of a question but i’m going to ask anyway:
people who have chosen between being a cosmetologist/hair dresser/nail tech OR tattoo artist, why did you choose the one you did?
#cosmetology#cosmetologist#hairdresser#hairstylist#hair dresser#tattoo artist#tattoo apprentice#tattoo artists#i was presented with a promising opportunity to change my path at a moment i was having trouble pursuing my first choice#conflicted!#i feel like i could do a lot of good as a cosmetologist#it’s more of a Necessary thing for a lot of people than tattooing#but there’s also no reason i couldn’t go back to it in the future#idk. it’s been so hard to even get into the classes#and i have a job already for the foreseeable future so that isn’t my main concern#idk. i don’t want art to become a chore but i don’t want to become disillusioned or outcast by my peers and cosmo school… idk#i can change my major easy enough since i haven’t even started the program courses yet#and i’ve got all my prerequisites done#idk#i might talk more to the guy who offered me the apprenticeship more about what that will entail#i probably will#just to have a clear idea of what both paths look like#punktalk
