Hairstylist

Hairstylists are able to provide different services in the country without needing formal requirements. They only need to be skilled in hair treatments to provide proper services.

Nail Technician

Nail techs can start serving the public after completing high school. The country has no regulations for practising nail experts, so anyone can earn in the industry.

Certified makeup artists or not are all welcome to earn in the industry. Makeup artistry in the country is unregulated, enabling practitioners to work unlicensed.
