Have you ever wondered where you will be working in the future?
Will it be in a regular office, repeating the same daily routine, or under dazzling lights at fashion shows, wedding venues, and glamorous stages, creating one stunning look after another?
For many who are passionate about hairdressing and makeup, Hairdressing & Makeup courses are not just skills to learn — they are tickets to enter the global fashion and beauty industry.
1. Beauty and Fashion Industry: A Career Path That Never Goes Out of Style
No matter how society changes, the pursuit of beauty never stops. Especially in Malaysia, the beauty and fashion industry has grown rapidly in recent years, offering more and more career opportunities. According to Statista, the global cosmetics industry market size continues to expand and is expected to maintain steady growth in the coming years. This means that as long as you have professional skills, you will never run out of stages to shine on.
What makes the hairdressing and makeup industry unique is that it is not only a career path in the local market, but also a skill that is globally applicable. Whether you want to stay in Malaysia, develop your career in Singapore, or explore opportunities in other countries, this skill can help you find your place.
2. Why Choose Hairdressing and Makeup?
Diverse Employment Opportunities
After graduation, you can choose to work in hair salons, makeup studios, wedding companies, fashion magazines, TV stations, film crews, and many other fields. Some graduates have even opened their own hair salons or studios in their early twenties, achieving both career and financial success.
Internationally Applicable Skills
The standards and trends of hairdressing and makeup are global. The techniques you learn in class can be applied overseas as well. As long as you keep improving yourself, you will have opportunities to work with international clients and even participate in international fashion weeks and brand events.
The Possibility of Freelancing
If you prefer a flexible lifestyle and don’t want a traditional 9-to-5 job, this industry is perfect for you. Many hairstylists and makeup artists choose to work as freelancers, taking on clients independently, arranging their own schedules, and even working in different cities or countries.
3. Staying on Trend to Go Further
In the beauty and fashion industry, trends change rapidly. A hair color or makeup style that is popular today may be replaced by a new one tomorrow. If you want to stand out in the industry, you must constantly update your aesthetic sense and technical skills.
That’s why we encourage students to follow international fashion updates, such as Vogue Beauty, a globally recognized authority in fashion. It can help you learn about the latest hairstyle trends, makeup techniques, and beauty product news. This way, when clients walk into your salon, you can always offer the most on-trend suggestions and services.
