If your budget is being squeezed tight by today's rising costs, then you will be pleasantly surprised to learn that you can get all of the pampering you desire for much less than typical retail prices. And, you can help students train for their future jobs while saving yourself money!

Here are some examples of schools where you can find wonderful treatments, help students, and save money:

Cosmetology Schools: Haircuts, Manicures, and Pedicures

While the thought of going to your local cosmetology school to get a haircut may bring you a scary vision of bad haircuts completed by students who do not know how to adequately cut hair, the reality is that students are not permitted to work on your hair and nails until they are nearing the end of their training. Additionally, the students are closely assisted by their instructors during your entire haircut. So, there really is not much of a difference between the cut you will get at a school versus a local salon.

In addition to cosmetology school haircuts, you can also get your next manicure and pedicure at your local cosmetology school as well.

Esthetician Schools: Acne Solutions and Skin Treatments

With the high costs of medical care today, many people are turning to estheticians to help solve their skin problems rather than going to see a dermatologist. This trend has increased the number of esthetician school students who are training to fill the marketplace need. In turn, this gives you many options for seeking skin care help from local esthetician schools.

Esthetician schools train their students on both beauty treatments to help skin look and feel better and on simple skin diseases such as acne.  

Dental Schools: Cleaning, Decay Treatments, and Cosmetic Procedures

Just like cosmetology and esthetician schools, dental schools also treat patients at a lower cost than retail dentistry. Dental schools can be a life-saver for those who do not have dental insurance but need a lot of expensive dental work.

There is an Important advantage to visiting the dental clinic at a dental school. This advantage is that the school will be training their newly minted dentists on the latest and greatest technology available today. This means that you can often get more up-to-date treatment at a dental college than at a low-cost dental clinic.

Final Thoughts

Now that you know where you can go to help others and save money on your own beauty treatments, you should contact a local cosmetology, esthetician, or dental school in your area to set up an appointment.
