Make-up Artist Licensing in Massachusetts

Massachusetts does not require that makeup artists obtain a license in its state. This means that students do not have to worry about completing certain testing requirements, high school grade requirements or be of a certain age to receive a license. Students should still pursue a makeup artistry educational program for the skills and knowledge that they will gain. In addition, clients often want to see that students have a credible certification from a makeup artistry school on their resumes. If a student plans on working full-time for a spa or salon, then he or she may want to consider pursuing an esthetician or cosmetologist license. Having a license will make it easier for a student to build his or her clientele in this context.
