What service can you perform in a salon setting?

In a salon setting, offering ear piercing is typically within the scope of services that cosmetologists can perform. Ear piercing is a popular service that many salons provide, as it often requires minimal training and can be performed safely with proper techniques and tools. Additionally, it enhances the customer experience by allowing clients to receive beautification services in one convenient location.

While facial treatments, skin assessments, and dermaplaning are also valuable services, they usually fall under the domain of estheticians or licensed professionals with specific training and certification in skincare. Regulations and licensing requirements vary by state, and in New Jersey, certain procedures, particularly more invasive ones like dermaplaning, may require specialized training beyond the standard cosmetology curriculum. This helps ensure clients receive safe and effective care tailored to their specific skincare needs.
