Start the New Year with a new career in beauty.

As we come to the New Year many of us are making new years resolutions to improve our lives and one of the most popular resolutions is to go to school, get a new job and make more money. Well, few career paths offer better opportunities than the beauty industry.

In Florida the ultimate beauty career is cosmetology. Cosmetologists are trained in not only hair but skin and nails as well. As a licensed cosmetologist your possibilities are limitless. You can be your own boss and work as much or as little as you please, work full time or just nights and weekends. The salary and income options are outstanding as well, some stylist have been known to make upwards of six figures.

Other great beauty careers are Esthetician (skin) which yahoo.com rated one of the best jobs of 2009 and Nail Technician. Both these licenses can be earned in as little as two months.

As times get tough one of the few things people have yet to cut back on is their appearance. Manicures and pedicures are an inexpensive luxury and facials, waxing and peels are considerably cheaper than plastic surgery. Even those who have lost their jobs still want to and need to look their best when interviewing for new jobs.

To Blow Dry or To Air Dry?

Which is better, you may ask?
Both ways of drying the hair have their advantages and disadvantages, and there are proper and improper ways of doing both. Read on and find out what these are.

Air drying. Air drying is usually done by people who have short and low-maintenance hairstyles, or by people with curly hair. There are also people who have long hair yet have their hair air dry, as air drying does not subject the hair to excessive heat. Therefore, the hair is not as susceptible to damage as hair that is blow dried.

If you are going to have your hair air dried, it is very important to remember that the hair is at its weakest when it is wet. So, take care not to rub your hair dry with the use of a towel. The friction caused by rubbing the hair with a towel will make the hair brittle and eventually break. Rather than rubbing it, you should instead blot the moisture out of your hair with the towel. Also, be careful not to tug or pull at your hair that much when it is still wet. Once the water is blotted out of the hair, fluff it out with your fingers.

Blow Drying. Blow drying the hair is the most convenient way of doing it, and because most people live fast-paced lives, blow drying the hair is the way most people want to do it. Moreover, drying the hair using a blower adds volume to the hair. But in as much that blow drying is very convenient, it is also dangerous to the hair, especially if overdone. It can make the hair very brittle.

If you blow dry your hair, make sure that it is not soaking. Blot the water out with a towel first. Do not hold the dryer too close to your head; keep it at least six inches away from your hair and move the dryer constantly around your head. Protect the outer strands of your hair from being over-dried by bending over and blow drying your hair with your hair hanging upside down. Also, try not to dry your hair completely with the blow dryer. Stop while the hair is still slightly damp.

Whether you air dry your hair or you blow dry it is completely your own choice based on your own lifestyle and preferences. But whatever you do, always remember that the hair is fragile. Be careful while handling it.
