Can a Cosmetology Student get a salon job before getting their license?
Yes most states do allow you to go to work in the salon before graduation, but the clients are told you are still a student and its up to a salon to take you on…its done all the time. And, after graduation, before you can continue working in a salon, you must pass your cosmo test with the state of NYC to get a licence… So, if your professor told you this, it’s true, they have to abide by all the state laws……..they would not put you in that situation if not true and salons there would not hire you, if it were not true…
