So I want to do so much. Be a cosmetologist, makeup artist, and tattoo artist. Then do massages and photography on the side.
Anyone know what I should start doing?
I'm in 10th grade right now. I already know I want to go to Paul Michele since I live right by it.
I know I need to take pictures of all the makeup and hair I do. But I feel like I'm missing a lot.
What should I be doing?

As far as cosmetology you can always start looking to see what schs are out there..mua can be self taught by research, books, youtube etc..you should start now there's so much to learn about makeup sanitation, face/eys shapes and colors undertones etc..if you google makeup schs and look on their web to see what's being covered in each lesson that can help to give you an outline as to what you need to learn then you can research it on your own..massage and photography also sounds like schooling is necessary good luck!
