Healthy Skin, Bright Future: The Rise of Skincare Careers

Written by tspa-admin on in Career Education

If you’ve noticed that skincare seems to be everywhere these days, you’re not imagining it. From social media skincare routines to the growing demand for professional spa services, the beauty industry has seen explosive growth in the world of esthetics, and it’s not slowing down anytime soon. For those considering a future in beauty, now is the perfect time to explore a career in skincare.

🌟 Skincare Is More Than Just a Trend

While beauty trends come and go, healthy skin never goes out of style. Today’s clients want more than makeup; they’re investing in long-term skin health. This has fueled demand for licensed estheticians who can provide treatments, product knowledge, and personalized care that no at-home routine can match.

📈 A Growing Industry With Big Opportunities

According to recent reports, the skincare market is expected to keep expanding in the coming years, with jobs for skincare estheticians projected to grow faster than average compared to many other careers.  From spas and salons to dermatology clinics and wellness centers, estheticians are finding more career paths than ever before.

💆 What Estheticians Actually Do

Becoming an esthetician means much more than facials (though those are a client favorite!). In school and beyond, you’ll learn to:

  • Analyze skin types and create customized care plans.
  • Perform treatments such as exfoliation, extractions, and hydration masks.
  • Recommend and educate clients on professional skincare products.
  • Offer trending services like chemical peels, dermaplaning, or advanced modalities.

🌿 Why Clients Love Estheticians

With so much skincare advice online, it can be overwhelming for clients to know what actually works. That’s where trained estheticians step in, bringing credibility, scientific expertise, and hands-on experience. Clients trust professionals who can cut through the noise and help them achieve real, visible results.

🚀 A Career With Room to Grow

One of the best aspects of esthetics is its flexibility. Licensed estheticians can work in:

  • Luxury spas
  • Medical settings (like dermatology or med spas)
  • Resorts and wellness retreats
  • Beauty schools and education
  • Or even open their own studio or business

With ongoing education and experience, you can specialize, add certifications, and continue building your career in the direction that excites you most.

Falling for Beauty: This Season’s Top Trends You’ll Learn in School

Written by tspa-admin on in Career, Career Education, Cosmetology

When the air turns crisp and the leaves start changing, it’s not just our wardrobes that shift, our beauty routines do too. Fall is the perfect season to embrace rich tones, cozy vibes, and fresh looks. At The Salon Professional Academy (TSPA), students gain hands-on experience mastering the latest styles that clients are asking for right now. Here’s a peek at some of this season’s top beauty trends you’ll learn to create in school.

🍁 Hair Color: Rich, Warm, and Dimensional

Fall is all about warmth, and hair color is no exception. Think rich coppers, mocha mousse brunettes, cherry vinyl red, and buttery blondes. These dimensional shades reflect the cozy glow of autumn and never go out of style. 

As a cosmetology student, you’ll learn how to:

  • Formulate custom colors that complement each client’s skin tone.
  • Master blending techniques like balayage and foiling.
  • Keep hair healthy and shiny during the coloring process.

🎃 Makeup: Smoky, Spiced, and Statement-Making

Pumpkin spice isn’t just for lattes; it’s inspiring fall makeup looks, too. Warm eyeshadow palettes, bold liners, and berry lips are making a big comeback this season.

In beauty school, you’ll practice:

  • Seasonal makeup looks from natural to dramatic.
  • Techniques to enhance different eye and lip shapes.
  • Professional product knowledge to recreate trends for every skin tone.

🍂 Skincare: Hydration is Everything

As the weather cools, skin needs extra love. Barrier repair, hydration, and glow-restoring facials are in high demand this season. Clients look to estheticians for treatments and product recommendations that help keep their skin looking radiant during dry, chilly months.

As an esthetics student, you’ll learn:

  • Seasonal skincare regimens that address dryness and sensitivity.
  • Professional treatments, such as exfoliation and hydration masks.
  • How to customize services for each client’s skin type.

Why Learning Trends Matter

Beauty trends may change with the seasons, but the fundamentals never go out of style. At TSPA, our programs are designed to teach you not just the “how” but also the “why” so you can adapt to what’s trending and stay ahead in your career.
