Comments on: Does being a cosmetologist and wedding planner sound like a good career choice?

I don’t think they are good career choices at all! All of the career choices you’ve listed are prone to recession. They are all luxury fields. Things people don’t spend money on unless the economy is strong and people have money to spend. When times get tough in my house, we don’t buy real estate or go to the movies or catch a show on Broadway. We don’t get facials. A wedding planner doesn’t get repeat business (usually) so you’ll never have a ‘customer base’ loyal to you when times are lean. But at the end of the day, you have to do something that makes you happy. Just know that if you go down any of these roads, you’re likely to become familiar with lay-offs and unemployment lines.

Either one would be fine but what has one to do with the other? As a Wedding planner you would certainly have to work nights and weekends.

Out of the three options, one is very confusing—majoring in voice and drama—if you have had experience in this field and have a good voice, I would go for this.

The other two involve long hours, but I wold suggest a cosmetologist over a wedding planner, atleast you would have nights and weekends free, unless you love the wedding stuff.

If you’re good at these things and enjoy doing them, yes, they would be good choices.

I don’t think voice or drama would relate to your chosen field, I think you could find courses that are more relevant.
