New Year, New Start
Here we are already in mid January, and my guess is most of us are either counting down the days until dry January is over (14 days FYI) or holding on to the obligatory new year resolutions with dear life!
Our thoughts for 2017 is why not make a change that excludes fad diets and cutting out your well deserved evening Pinot (sob). Make a change that will not only benefit you now, but also for many years to come, one that will be fun, exciting and rewarding.
At Omni we are so passionate about what we do and the industry we are in. Our aim is to not only teach skills but also share our passion of beauty to enable others to love what they do, just like us. After all we do spend most of our day at work!
But a passion doesn't pay the bills we hear you say! Well, did you know... The Beauty industry really is flourishing and growing from strength to strength every year. Here are just some of the top reasons why you should make beauty your career path of choice in 2017, you'll thank us later!

Booming Business
Did you know that during the great recession, the beauty
industry was thought to be recession proof and saw a continued percentage
increase in sales! A theory dubbed ‘The Lipstick Effect’ claimed that women
facing hard times during economic crisis will still be willing to spend money
on luxury cosmetic goods in order to make themselves look and feel better, so
whilst the rest of the economy suffered record declines in sales, beauty and
cosmetics experienced sales growth of 5.3%, proving the Beauty business really is
the business!
Evolving
With new trends and treatments always developing within the
market, the industry is forever changing and new training and development opportunities
become available. Keeping up to date with the industry trends is so important and
overall creates a work life that is super exciting with no two days the same!
Aesthetics
Aesthetics are now massively popular with more and more
people reaching towards the non surgical options of anti aging treatments!
Training in Beauty Therapy is the first step towards being able to deliver
Aesthetic treatments, with a large amount of the theory behind these advanced
treatments being covered in your Beauty Therapy training.
Unique
It is estimated that by 2020 up to 5 million jobs will be replaced by a computer. Industries predicted
to be affected may surprise you; they
include taxi drivers, farmers and construction workers. Luckily for beauty, we
fall into a unique category where computer replacement is highly unlikely...pheew!
Travel
A qualification in beauty provides you with a skill that you
can take anywhere with you, all you need is your hands! Therefore giving you an
opportunity to travel the world whilst always maintaining a way to make money.
A popular option amongst our students at Omni is to sign up for a contract
aboard a cruise ship. Working in a luxury spa, travelling around places like the
Caribbean and making friends for life, what’s not to love! At Omni Academy we
are proud to offer VTCT qualifications meaning you will leave with an
internationally recognised qualification!
YOU
We are supposed to work to live, not live to work so why not join an industry that works around YOU. Whether you need to work around childcare, another job or simply want something part time, the beauty industry isn’t a Monday to Friday, 9-5 type of job. With a variety of opportunities such as starting your own businesses, working weekends in a Salon or even temping for a beauty agency such as 4 Leisure, the flexible work options are endless!
