Hi Brittany I've followed you since you first started making KZread videos and you were still in cosmetology school. As a fellow cosmetologist Who is working in a salon as an employee I feel very inspired watching your videos today. I love what your channel has become. KZread is over saturated with ''beauty gurus'' and its so refreshing to have someone who is actually licensed giving a realistic perspective on this industry. Every time I'm going through an obstacle in this career you coincidentally post a video speaking about how to over come it. You're amazing you've taught me how to grow a back bone and be confident within myself. Please keep posting through your journey 💜

Amen!!
I honestly have to disagree with the “looking neutral and discreet” that forces people to not stand out. If a stylist is bold and outgoing, why hide that in an interview? If that salon doesn’t like you for whatever makes you unique, you don’t want to work there anyway.

Love this, love your attitude! I am starting school to be a licensed Esthetician and makeup artist in August. So even though this video is your experience with hair and business, you literally hit the "in general" aspect of the beauty business. Keep making these videos because youtube needs REAL like you. Very inspiring, keep up the videos babes!
Can you do a video on how a hairstylist resume should look like. I graduated in august 2017 and i have been applying at salons. But i feel like my resume and cover letter arent the best. So if you have any tips on those that would be great!!!
in depth video on the portfolio please 😊😊
good points, my hair is always a funky color and I have tattoo's and piercings and my goal is to work the music festival scene where everything is over the top so I feel like that suits my style, rn my hair is electric blue and has been bleached but is still super healthy and i get stopped everywhere by people complimenting my look so yeah a card, thats genius!!
Thank you! I'm two years out and still am having trouble but your advice has got me ready to face the world!
I'm getting ready to relocate to a new city and am about to start looking for new salons to apply to. My current salon is three chairs small and is super old fashioned. I'm ready for a new, trendy place and was super nervous about how to apply. This video really helped and made me more confident in my moving process. Thank you so much girl!
Thank you Brittney!!!! I needed to hear this advice. As a new Cosmetologist 💇 I know my stuff, but can get timid at times about it. This video will really help me.
Great advice. I'm not in the hair industry but if I was this would be very helpful.
Hi Brittany, I love how your video showed what stands you apart. Thanks for your wisdom regarding a portfolio and how you got people to participate, that was sheer genius. By being forward thinking, you remove the stress on the employer, and display confidence. I would suggest with your portfolio explain to your potential boss, where you learnt your craft - give credit to others, what you learnt when you did each model, which shows your growth, communication, teamwork, agility and teachability. Also, project positive energy explain what you like to work here, appreciate the businesses, culture, vibe and then what can you add to it. Consolidate this with a success story - your point of difference which can compliment the business. TIP: At hairdressing school, be aware of time management work towards professional times for example blow-drying hair, so when you do a trial you will be more comfortable with the task. Thanks for this video I appreciated the quality content. It was very helpful.
I needed this so much! I had an interview on Tuesday that went well and I'm going in tomorrow with a model for the second part of my interview. I've been so nervous and doubting myself even though I know I do good work and so that last thing that you said about being confident literally made me tear up because that was exactly what I needed to hear thank you so much!!
I would love to see you do a video on a men's cut. Give us a different perspective

I love that you did this video because I think it's a real awakening for some people who don't know about the hair industry. I think it was a amazing video. Yes I think it would be great if you can go in depth with some of things you mentioned I would be interested to hear about it. Also maybe if you can give a few more examples of a little more in depth with how you can kinda of MilK your resume. I think that would be awesome. Overall if you make more videos about this subject I'll be happy to watch. I also agree with you on your appearance a natural beauty is perfect I would think so too not so much a drag queen but putting your self together. Take care Love your videos
This video got me a job at a salon! Thank you
This is super useful ! And i love the way you look into the cam , like you talk to us . Not like you watch yourself on cam lol. Love ya !
i would love a more in depth video of how to make your portfolio! loved this!!
this video is so acute and charismatic, love the advice!!! Litterally changed my perspective 🙏

This is so helpful yassss girl ! I never realized how basic my resume was Intel now lol !
So glad I found your channel, this was so helpful. I have an interview for an apprenticeship in 2 days and am so damn nervous.
First interview post covid pandemic today and I just want to say thank you for your tips
Thank you so much! I'm going to do everything you suggested. I love your portfolio.
Great video! I feel a lot more confident now about the interview I have coming up! Thanks so much! ♥️
Great video!i've got interview this Friday I am just fresh from the collage and so nervous,I found nice tips,thank you
You mean... Cardstock? Haha, love yah girl.
love your honesty and bluntness!!
This video was very helpful And I am thinking about working in a salon as a secondary career after high school I would absolutely love to do hair I remember when I was 9 years of age and I gave my Barbie doll an A symmetrical bob hair cut
Thanks Brittney this video was really helpful love your channel !
I'm really late, commenting on this video, but I had a question in regards to looking professional. As a professional cosmetologist, what advice do you have for male cosmetologists, and how the should dress and present themselves? You made very good points about looking the part, but I felt that a good bit of it was more so for the female cosmetologists. I appreciate any feedback!!

mcolem61 hello! What I wore to my interview was a black dress shirt, and black pants. I had my hair styled as comb over. Just try to wear something professional, and clean. Style your hair. I hope this helps.
I would like you to do a portfolio video
Hey Brittney this was so helpful as a cosmetologist just getting her license Thank you hun🙏🏻🙏🏻
You’re legit like a fairy god mother lol and I’m not even in the hair or beauty industry but I feel so motivated after watching your videos
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! So helpful!
This is the best advice!!!! Please make a 2nd video:) I'm 21 and I'm about to start cosmology school! I'm going for mainly hair.
Hi!! I know your video is old but I implemented some of these and I landed a job! Thank you for helping me be more prepared. Now that I am going to be an assistant, can you give tips on how to be the best assistant ever??
Omg I just found you again lol I was thinking about you the other day. I think you were the first KZread I started following like in 2009 I think 🤔 I remember you did a curly pin up look with your long extensions ☺️ you also did this competition I think. And if you won we all won a straightener lol I miss you girl
Thank you Britney !!!!!!! I really needed this!!! Very timely!!!
Girl I love you. You hit every point for the beauty industry. Thanks for the advice to because I am trying to get ahead in life right now. Lol 😘
Awe I subscribed because you give amazing advice. Love the portfolio idea!
I woke up wanting success and came straight to this video 💕
Love this video. It was sooo helpful. Thank you!!! 😊♥️👏🏻
Did you go to a community college that offers cosmetology or did you attend a private school (like Paul Mitchell). I want to go to school but I don't know that I can justify the 15k+ that it takes to attend a school like PM. Is it worth the cost? Or am I better off going to a local vocational school where I don't have to take out any loans? Thanks!

Sorry I’m late, but I always suggest community college. Do your research, look at the reviews, tour the schools, go with your vibes. No matter what school you attend, your going to learn the basics, passing the state boards with different teaching styles. I feel like Paul Mitchell or big name schools, your paying for the name but also you learn a secret or two of how they cut, style etc.
I want that portfolio video!
May be you should try more peach n brown toned eyeshadows. They will look more flattering on you.
Thank you sooooo much. It was so helpful for me
Great video Brittney!:) Portfolio Video, please....:)
Excelent video you would be a Perfect teacher 👍Greetings from Puerto Rico
Amazing video, great advice girl 👍
brittney i dont know if its your contour or your just a sunkissed tan but its looking right lol 😗
Great , hey pls how did it work for foreigners people ? I'd love work abroad but sometimes I'm afraid of it ,I good as a hairdresser I already took many types of courses abroad but i saw that to work In usa I need to graduate there so I'm thinking about it , tks for all
Great tips! Loved the portfolio
Thank you ! Really informative ❤️
I’m not sure if anyone will see this, but I need advice. I’m going to a shadowing of a salon I really want to work at, I am fresh out of beauty school and am not sure if I should bring a portfolio or resume to a shadowing, would that be a little much or is that expected? Thank you!
what skill set helped you the most when being an assistant?

Portfolio vid please!!!
I love your videos and im not even a cosmotologist. I do appteciate getting a behind the scenes look at this as someone who cares about my hair. I have a possible request for a video/question....super lame but how do you make friends? I just moved to a major city and am drifting apart from my college friends. Trying to hold onto them but i would like to make more. In current culture it seems so much harder...
You are so awesome for making these vids
If you do make another video on this subject. Which idk if you have or not I just found your channel and subscribed immediately lol! But can you list a few schools that you know of or would recommend to someone you know that has a good hire rate after graduating. Or just schools that you like in general....if that makes any sense? Lol
Your hair is 😍😍
That was a really helpful video!
Awesome info!
Brittney, you are such an inspiration! X0 💋

Oh god! The drag queen thing still going strong!! I hate it. In 2016 I had a makeup instagram account and I got so sick of it I ultimately deleted my account. I do my own makeup the way you're wearing yours here. This is a really considerate video. I'm in real estate where we don't need resumes, but most of the rest of this stuff is a lot like real estate. I need the kinds of jobs that are different, that require ongoing learning, and allow me to the space to have my own personality.
do a portfolio vid pleeeease
thanks thiss helped me out!
Thank you, this was very helpful'' please give more tip, i really enjoyed this video. New Subbie
I love you you help me so much
Awesome video
So helpful!!!!!
Hey I'm 12 is there anyway I could still be hired in this job?
Here's my issue, quit referring to hair stylist as girls first of all they are women like yourself. Second, there's an awful lot of guys in this business now. Stop being sexist in such a forward-thinking field.

They use to have a site that helped you do your resume because I didn't know how to do a resume and in college they told us to go to www.10minuteresume.com but I don't know if that is the correct name or if it even still exists. Without it I would not have had a resume.
Love ur video..thank you
thank you !!
Not sure about the nail part... I had a hair stylist with long nails (who obviously didn't know how to treat someone) that washed my hair and I had bloody skin at the end of the treatment. One of the reason I watch at the nails of my hair stylist now and yours would be too long for "my taste". Granted people should know that, but if you educate people I would appreciate a warning.

Nehlenia that sounds more like a personal trauma issue. There are stylists with short nails that can make your scalp bleed too, and there are stylists with long nails that give amazing shampoo and scalp massages. You have to let your stylist know as soon as they are hurting you. Don't stay quiet if your in pain. We're not mind readers, and we don't try to hurt our paying clients.
Can you please make a video doing makeup/brows on someone else?
Do you have to have qualifications or a cosmetology certificate to do an apprenticeship?
