Strong Portfolio

This is the moment you got to prove yourself that you are the best.

Yes, you must, must, must know what is going on in the market. For example, there are a lot of makeup and hair artists who are really big today, and they are the ones who are practically trendsetters. What they are always doing is that they are always watching what is happening all around? What are makeup and hair trends being followed by Hollywood celebrities? What kind of liners, lip colors, and hairstyles are being worn by them?

Now what they do is  that they follow the same kind of trends or at least draw some inspiration from them and apply them to their professional life with the clientele that they are working with. That way, they are preferred far more than their peers who are still doing old school looks. So know the trends and follow them and be known for being different and better.

You Need to Constantly Network
