Text B. Beauty professions

Beauty and hair care are almost always available together at same place. Locations for such outlets treatment range from luxurious salons at five star hotels to small owner-run parlours that operate from the spare room of the proprietor's home. Some beauticians also work at client's homes - particularly during weddings. Many salons also prepare and sell their own beauty care products.

The film and television industry absorbs a number of make-up and hair dressing experts - called 'artistes'. Working in these fields requires specialized knowledge of make-up application that will hold out under powerful studio lighting. Also important is an awareness of the 'look' and hair-styles of historical periods and the skill to adapt and alter an actor's features with the appropriate make-up and hair-style to suite the character he is playing.

Beauty consultancy:Consultancy is usually provided by large cosmetics firms. It involves sale and promotion of beauty products through talks and demonstrations and often includes resolving customers' problems with skin-care and make-up.

Fitness and Exercise:This is an up and coming area that covers everything from health clubs, yoga and aerobics to workout gyms.

Entry and Eligibility (Поступление и отбор):A beautician's job requires skill training rather than high academic inputs. The training can begin after Class X or XII and the courses are generally of short duration. There is no specific entry qualification required except for an interest and inclination in the field.

Study/Training:The academic program varies with the institution. The average syllabus includes theory - anatomy, physiology, diets, salesmanship, and salon organization - and practical work - giving facials, different types of massages, make-up, electrical treatment etc.
