You know what? I honestly think Cosmetology is a Piscean career. Not only do you get to create, but you get to make people look good— and through that, you’ll put a smile on their face! Which is helping them! Not to mention, being a hairstylist is almost like being a bartender. I mean— as you said, you hear a lot of stories, and help people with their problems. It’s funny, I was actually talking about this with my hairstylist recently! Because I want to be a psychologist, and he was telling me how he feels a lot like a psychologist in the way how he feels like he’s constantly helping people. 

Personally, I think it’s never listed as a suitable career because of stereotypes that might be associated with both Cosmetology and Pisces? I mean, I’ve heard a lot of people associate cosmetology as a “materialistic profession” and “superficial” which is basically the opposite of Pisces (not to mention, in my opinion, really untrue! I mean, how can a profession be materialistic?). I don’t think a lot of people know what it’s like to be a cosmetologist… unless you’re a cosmetologist! You know? And on that note, people think of Pisces as being “helpful, wanting to please, needing to be creative,” and if people don’t know what it’s like to be a cosmetologist… they’re not going to realize that those personality traits would be satisfied in that career. 

But, don’t worry about it. I think you already realize it’s a suitable Pisces career, but just to solidify it: not only is it a job where you get to create, but it’s often creative! And not only that, but you help people both vicariously (by making them look good), and by listening to them/hearing their stories. What’s not Pisces about that?
