You have to be licensed to be a beautician and to be licensed you have to take a course and pass a test. You can take courses at the vocational high school or call a beauty school. The Beauty school can help you get grants to pay your tuition

Not many hire 15 year olds.  Some are grocery bagging jobs and fast food places, but more and more places don't even want to hire people until they are 18, and the ones who do hire teens usually want 16 year olds or older.  You can try going to fast food places or grocery stores and asking.  Good luck with that, if you do.  You should also see if your school is having a job fair or career fair.  Ask your guidance counselor.  If all else fails, go door to door and ask if people would pay you to help clean.  Save money  and get a mower and hedge clippers and expand to doing yard work.  You might also try babysitting.  While you are at it, check to see if any booths at nearby flea markets or small "mom and pop" stores need help.  You could get a job moving boxes or sweeping floors.  I still advise working for yourself, though-- you can make your own hours, for the most part.  Meanwhile, learn about a trade you could do now.  A pair of twin guys from Antiques Roadshow were collecting antiques and re-selling them when whey were kids.  Good luck with whatever you try!

Think about some jobs you would really like to do when you're an adult.  If some are local you should see about volunteering at these businesses and talk to them about the possibilities of making some money after an agreed upon time.  Considering your age, a parent or adult could help get you in the door.  This volunteer time could help propel you to higher earning as a 16 year old if you find you like that line of work..It would also look good on college apps and resumes.

Take samples and talk to managers/owners but first you need to figure out how much you paid for them and how much u want to make.  Give the watches to manager for the amount you need to make a profit on and he will raise that price to make an amount HE needs to make.  So let's say you paid $5.00 each and u want to make $10.00 on each.  You tell manager you want to sell them for no less than $15.00 ea.  Whatever he sells them for you don't worry about.  He will make a profit on any price OVER $15. A good place to sell these things is Hair Salons, Gift Shops, smaller stores and specialty shops.  Also try Ebay.

Coming from a man who is self employed you need to be aggressive. Now you can be aggressive without being pushy. The first way to drum up new business is to start with your current clients if you have any. Now assuming you have clients make sure you treat them great give good service etc. After that ask for referrals. Make sure you tell them to have their sister, brother, cousin, aunt, whoever they know to come to you. Second give them a reason to. Let them know if they help you, you will help them. Give discounts or free haircut for a referral. Third get out into the community join groups get to know people let them know about your business and what you do. People will come to you just because they associate with you. Try to put an announcement in a newspaper or flier or such so people know you are out there. Just most of all do a great job keep the customer happy and smiling and you'll be really successful.

Your best bet is to call around because usually most places hire at age 16, but some will hire you at 15. Try grocery stores, restaurants, retail stores, fast food restaurants. If these don't interest you, you could mow lawns over the summer for people in your neighborhood or you could babysit.

Get your resume together and post it around the other salons in your area. You've got the qualification, you've worked a year "in a junior position gaining experience" and you're "ready to take on more responsibility" they'll snap you up - THEN you walk out of work.

Although the cosmetology lic. would be a start. It is good to have a little bit of knowledge on the business. Like start by renting a booth or managing a salon for a few years for the exper. so you do not dive in something you may later realize you do not want. I have had a lic. for 14-15 yrs and had my own booth and management for 10yrs. I did all that with hopes it would give me the heads up for that to be successful. And it worked, I realized it was not my passion...so glad I didn't do it right away. Taste before you eat girl.\nBest wishes.\nExperience is the best education.

Car washes are always so fun! You can also try have people who have long hair donate at least 10 inches to Locks Of Love, it helps benefit people who don't have hair because of cancer. I recently cut my hair and donated it, I was growing it for about 2 years to do this. You don't make money but it's kind none the less!

hello, i really like your question. this was the same question i had at your age i am 19 and i started earning at the age of 14 itself. the best way you can earn is on your computer with your creative mind. There are several websites which pay you a lot for typing and making small projects and some creative works like Jewelly desinging, All it takes is your hardwork and creative mind...Thanks hope you like my answer

I say you should start on the internet first. You can sell your goods on ebay or amazon.(you have to pay a small fee)Also you can hand out your business cards to people and make fliers. I mean it may sound small but you have to start from somewhere. I think this would be good to get your name out. I hope this can help you. Good luck with everything.

You could put a small, empty, glass fish bowl with a pen attached to it with a string on the counter at a high end hair salon or daycare or a gym (gyms have single guys who need your service).  you have to ask permission to do this.  On the front of the fish bowl...put a little sign.  Make it a drawing for one free room cleaned or something like that.  People have to put their name...number or business card inside.  You pick one winner a month.  Then you have all those contacts that are interested in the service (or they wouldn't have entered).  You can send them a flier in the mail with a "special 20% off" for the 1st visit.  It is a good way to get yourself a customer database and get your name out a little.  The actual winner might like your service and make it a regular thing.
