I want to pursue a career in cosmetology because I want to help people become a version of themselves that they didn’t think was possible. I want to make them feel amazing. I want to see my clients face light up when they leave with a style that they have always wanted. For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to make people happy and with this career path, I get to do just that. The simple act of making someone happy holds a unique power, one that resonates deeply within both the giver and the receiver. It's a feeling of warmth that spreads outward, creating ripples of positivity that can brighten even the dullest of days. The joy derived from bringing happiness to others is multifaceted, stemming from the satisfaction of knowing you've made a positive impact, the connection forged through shared smiles, and the sense of purpose it instills within oneself. One of the most rewarding aspects of making people happy is witnessing the immediate impact of your actions. A genuine compliment, a helping hand, or even a well-timed joke can transform someone's mood, replacing frowns with smiles and lifting spirits that may have been weighed down by stress or sadness. This visible transformation is a powerful reminder of the influence we have on those around us and the potential to brighten their lives in meaningful ways. For me, the desire to create happiness in others extends to the realm of cosmetology. I see cosmetology as more than just a profession; it's an art form that allows me to enhance people's natural beauty and boost their self-confidence. By providing services such as haircuts, styling, makeup application, and skincare treatments, I can help individuals feel good about themselves and project a positive image to the world. The ability to empower people through cosmetology is incredibly fulfilling and aligns perfectly with my desire to make a tangible difference in their lives. Seeing how people get when they feel good about how they look inspired me ti want to pursue this career path. I want to be that person that people come to when they want to feel like themselves. I have always been someone who tries to make others happy even if they don’t think about them selves. I will always try to make someone smile and laugh and just over all being happy. To me that is what makes me happy. Now, that I have found a career that I love doing and a career that makes others feel good about themselves I feel as though I can really make a difference in the world one person at a time.
