Beauty courses shape careers, not just skills. So if you plan to make a successful career in the beauty and hair industry, avoid common mistakes, choose wisely, and train professionally with LTA School of Beauty.
Beauty courses are often chosen quickly, influenced by price, duration, or social media trends. However, the beauty industry rewards long-term skill, certification value, and professional exposure not shortcuts. At LTA School of Beauty, many students approach us after realising their initial course choice did not prepare them for actual industry demands.
Mistake 1: Choosing Beauty Courses Only Based on Fees
Low-cost beauty courses often lack depth, hands-on practice, and career support. While affordability matters, students must evaluate what the course truly delivers in terms of skill and employability.
“Students should never judge beauty courses only by price. The real value lies in training quality and career outcomes,” says Vaishali Shah, Founder, LTA School of Beauty.
Mistake 2: Ignoring Course Curriculum and Practical Exposure
Many students do not review the curriculum in detail. Beauty courses must include strong practical training, industry-aligned techniques, and exposure to professional products. Theory without practice limits confidence and job readiness.
Mistake 3: Not Understanding Career Pathways
Different beauty courses lead to different career outcomes: salon work, clinics, media, international roles, or education. Choosing without understanding these pathways often leads to dissatisfaction later.
“Beauty education should be chosen with clarity on where the student wants to work after training, not just what looks popular,” says Biju Nair, Co-Founder, LTA School of Beauty.
Mistake 4: Overlooking Certification Value
Certification matters. Internationally aligned beauty courses carry more credibility in premium salons and global markets. Students often underestimate how certification impacts long-term growth.
Mistake 5: Skipping Career Guidance and Counselling
One of the biggest mistakes is not seeking professional counselling before enrolling. Proper guidance helps students match aptitude, interest, and career goals with the right beauty courses.
