From Dreaming to Doing: Your Beauty Career Starts Step by Step

Because your beauty career won’t start itself, let’s make it happen one step at a time.

You’ve been thinking about beauty school for a while now. You scroll, you dream, you picture yourself doing what you love, but something keeps hitting pause. Maybe it’s timing or maybe it’s nerves or just too many decisions.

We get it. Starting something new can feel big.

But here’s the thing: waiting won’t make the decision easier. If you’re serious about starting a career in beauty, there’s no better time than right now, before classes are full and another season passes you by.

Here’s a clear and simple plan to move from thinking about it to doing it.

✅ Step 1: Get Clear on Your Vision

Ask yourself: What part of beauty excites me most?

  • Hair? Skin? Makeup? Lashes? Massage? All of the above?
    Not sure yet? That’s okay, we’ll help you find your fit.

✅ Step 2: See It for Yourself

Book a tour at TSPA Rapid City so you can:

  • Check out our real salon training environment
  • Meet the educators who’ll coach you
  • Get a feel for the energy and community

🎯 Pro tip: Tours fill quickly, so book yours now to get first pick on upcoming classes.

✅ Step 3: Talk to Admissions

Our admissions team is here to guide you, not pressure you. Ask all the questions:

  • What’s the daily schedule like?
  • What’s the difference between cosmetology and esthetics?
  • What’s required to apply?

You’ll walk away with real answers and a real plan.

✅ Step 4: Explore Financial Aid

Beauty school is an investment, and you might qualify for:

  • Federal financial aid is available for students who qualify
  • Local grants or scholarships
  • Flexible payment plans

Our advisors will help you explore every option available (no stress, no guesswork).

✅ Step 5: Apply + Enroll

We’ll walk you through the enrollment steps. It’s quick, it’s doable, and it moves you forward.
You’ll:

  • Lock in your start date
  • Get your student kit (hello, Pro Tools!)
  • Join a community of creatives chasing the same dream

✨ Bonus Tip: You’re Not Doing This Alone

Starting beauty school might feel like a solo leap, but at TSPA Rapid City, you’ll have a whole team behind you:

  • Redken-trained educators
  • A supportive student community
  • Staff who want you to succeed

🔥 Let’s Do This

If you’re waiting for a sign, this is it.
Your future in beauty is closer than you think. Let’s take that first step together.
