What Qualifications Does a Spa Manager or Owner Need?
Attending a certified spa therapy program at an accredited beauty college is the first step in realizing your dream of owning or managing a spa. The vast majority of successful spa owners and managers received an education from a beauty college and began their trade as a licensed beauty therapist or hair stylist. If you have attended and graduated from a beauty school training program, then some specialized beauty training courses in spa management are a good option for your next step. If you have no previous experience in the beauty or spa industry, it is recommended that you first receive your cosmetology license before opening or managing your own spa. Being thoroughly knowledgeable about and up-to-date on the services offered in your spa can be a huge benefit to you, your employees, and your customers.
