What does a Beautician do?
As a beautician, you know a lot about body and beauty care and can therefore advise your customers. You carry out appropriate measures such as skin cleansing, finger and foot care or the removal of body hair. In decorative cosmetics, you apply make-up, shape eyebrows, dye eyelashes and paint fingernails. You also sell care and beauty products.
What is important?

- Creativity and sense of aesthetics (e.g. when designing occasion-related make-up for weddings, birthdays, etc., when giving type advice)
- Observation accuracy (e.g. recognising and correctly classifying skin peculiarities)
- Customer and service orientation (e.g. responding to individual customer wishes during cosmetic consultation)
