Boca Beauty Academy in South Florida Aesthetician Facial, Master Hair Design vs. Master AestheticianPersonality and creativity are two vital components in choosing the best career path for you. For example, as a cosmetologist, graduates are prepared to work within a robust, fast-paced environment where client interaction and communication is key to building loyal, long-standing relationships. Creativity and artistry are what sets many stylists apart – will you be one to create a trend or follow a trend?

For aestheticians, your career path will lead you into a more tranquil and secluded environment where client services are provided in a more private, clinical, and at times, spa-like setting. A career as a master aesthetician requires a consultative personality to help guide clients through anti-aging, corrective, beauty, and body-enhancing treatments.
