yo..... if you have 2 girls.... or a son & a daughter.... that both want to go to cosmetology school??? my niggaah!!!!! you got a BUSINESS! You wont have to pay for anything they want outside of their shop equipment & you can buy that used! or you can buy artsy type shit ( look on pintrest for ideas). Id say go for the cosmetology because it covers EVERYTHING!!! & Stay for the extra semester / quarter for the instructors licencing add on! This way they can teach cosmetology! They can open a cosmetology / barbering SCHOOL. You can take a old house & turn it into a plushed out spot! A lotf!!! Shit they / you can own. Look for store fronts with apartments above them if possible.... or commercial space you can also convert to a live work space! this way you kill 2 birds w/ 1 stone!!! they are property owners & business owners. They only pay out operating expenses. Retail of products...... ( pay taxes on that) products they develop using essential oils / she butter / coco butter ( open market / side income stream) how to vids..... this is shit ive LEARNED. Then duplicate it!Great detailed info bro, let me say I did/do understand the risk involved.
I knew schooling would be required etc... I was really only planting the idea, for the future.
I'm look to see what's available in the area, there might be classes available once they get older.
I fucked up in the game with not having a real plan. All i wanted to do was be the man! lmfao...... I was young! I got what I asked for & then some but w/ no real mentor / guidance in the game. The money comes like dope money! The pussy that comes with that type of money energy follows! The parties, drugs, strip clubs, sex clubs, regular clubs, spots to eat, after hr spots, mufukkaz that love you for what you do & not you, niggaahz that want to be ya friend cause you know ALL the fly bitches, some famous, getting in spots free, never waiting in line...... fuckin bitches you wouldnt be fuckin if you wasnt wicked with a razor blade & a make up brush! Rolmfao.
My 3rd time up to the plate will include the xtream lashes & the microblading ( eyebrow application akin to tattooing) ( scrool thr the post..... I posted the fees for the service!) you have to be a cosmetologist or estitichain to do it. The thing is to get on the movie sets doing it! once you get in the union / get ya sag card... you on the NEXT NEXT NEXT level with it! ya paper game is on a whole different level! The movie / tv show / black hollywood in atlanta needs barbers to be on set.... shit is a hustle... but!!!! maaaaaaaaan! the exsposure & where it can take you!!! Dealing with flaming faggots of all levels will be unavoidable. Not just in black hollywood but in the hair business period! Its a rare occassion that you can make it thru a "level" of the game without the stamp of a homo! Thats just how it is to some degree.... I dnt know any drug dealers who dont sell drugs to homos. Ijs. Money is money! A lot of times.... you have no idea you dealing with a gay / bi lesbian, they hide better than those dl dudes. they identify w/ the lgbtq community because they are apart of it, thus they move with their money like the rest.... you can loose a lot of fine ass women that would otherwise spend their money with you. ijs shit you need to think about especially if you ever want to do video / movie / play / photo shoot / set work..... or personal make up artist wk.
if you do makeup & you are a straight black man..... you have to be just as good or better than the best gay male artist or group of artist! They hold the stamps you NEED for those jobs working with artist directly or being placed on a call list with certain casting ppl who would otherwise not know or fuck wit you. once they know you really about ya business & they have no wins fukin wit you, they wont fuk wit you anymore.... some will help you get jobs & tell you who not to fuk wit & what to charge. They also have a wealth of information / tips/ tricks for doing make-up. You have to actually spend time in a working environment with them sharpening your sword. Doing make up is just like being a graffiti artist but you sung makeup & flesh of different colors & textures. You cant learn how to master than in a classroom. Shit aint gonna happen. These gay dudes master HOW to LOOK like women so when they use their skill set to make REAL women look better.....$$$$ so you have to be willing to learn / be taught. Lotta time standing around listening to the bullshit... lotta shit you gotta blank stare niggaahz on... for a while anyway. but its worth it!
A bitch is sick if I kick her to the curb! she gotta find a new hair stylist, make-up artist, & eyebrow artist.... on top of some new dick & a man that can cook! ask any woman what she would do IF: the man she was with for a few years was also the same man her hair stylist, make-up artist, & eyebrow artist & broke up with her & totally cut her off! she'd throw up! fuk what these nggaahz talkin about!
