I'm by Newark, NJ! I set up a tour with MUD.. Plainfield is too far for me with not an easy commute. NY would be best. :)

Curious if Chic Studios teaches what to include of business cards, how to format portfolio, and how to create contracts for freelance makeup work? :) Please let me know! I want to set up a tour!

A beauty school you can look into is Chic Studios in NYC.

It is located in MANHATTAN.

They teach:
4-WEEK PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP COURSE
ADVANCED COURSES
AIRBRUSH MAKEUP & SUNLESS TANNING WORKSHOP
BASIC HAIRSTYLING FOR MAKEUP ARTISTS WORKSHOP

And they offer a payment plan!

Many of their graduates work in a variety of fields in the make-up industry- like runway and film/video, like you are interested in, but also fashion, magazines, MAC, etc.

They also help out with simple career skills like helping you build a resume, a portfolio, things like that.

I hope this helps!

I have really been looking into makeup schools lately. I'm from New Jersey but my commute to New York would be so simple that it's not really an issue to me to choose a school over there. At the top of my list after years of research are both MUD and AOFM. I am just pretty curious because everywhere I look people talk about the cost of MUD, however, I believe they offer Financial Aid? If anybody has any experience with that I would love some feedback on how much help they actually received. I know that AOFM is not a state funded school so you must pay out of pocket which is why I would like to attend somewhere else until I actually have the money saved to take the course there.

I recently took a tour at The Hair Design School which is a partner school with Empire education. I did this with the intent to just see what a cosmetology or aesthetics program consists of. I was thinking maybe I could get licensed so that I can get a job and save to attend a makeup school but my TRUE AND MAIN passion is makeup and I'd like to take courses asap.

Advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :) <3
