For decades, skincare and esthetics have been viewed as industries designed primarily for women. But times are changing fast. More men than ever are recognizing the importance of skincare, wellness, and self-care, not just in their daily routines but also as meaningful career paths.
At Skin Science Institute, we are seeing a growing number of male students who are passionate about helping others look and feel their best. This shift is redefining what it means to work and thrive in the world of esthetics.
The Rise of Men in Skincare
From professional athletes getting facials before game day to barbershops expanding into full grooming studios, men’s skincare is rising. The modern man knows that taking care of his skin is not vanity. It is confidence, health, and professionalism.
Men are becoming more open to treatments such as chemical peels, hydrating facials, and laser services, realizing that clear, healthy skin can make a big difference in how they look and feel. As demand grows, so does the need for knowledgeable, skilled estheticians, both male and female, who understand the unique needs of men’s skin.
Why Men Are Choosing Careers in Esthetics
Men entering the esthetics field are breaking outdated stereotypes and opening doors to new opportunities. Esthetics is about artistry, science, and care, and that has no gender.
Here is why more men are finding their calling in skincare:
- Creative expression: From customizing facials to mastering advanced techniques, esthetics allows for creativity and personal touch.
- Meaningful work: Helping clients gain confidence in their own skin is deeply rewarding.
- Growing industry: With the popularity of med spas, skincare clinics, and wellness centers, estheticians are in high demand across Utah and beyond.
- Entrepreneurial freedom: Many estheticians go on to open their own businesses, giving them flexibility and independence.
Changing the Conversation Around Skincare
It is time to move beyond the idea that skincare is just for women. Everyone, regardless of gender, deserves healthy, well-cared-for skin.
Men’s skin often has different characteristics, like thicker texture and increased oil production, which means they benefit from treatments designed specifically for them. Services like beard facials, deep cleansing treatments, and chemical exfoliation are becoming more popular than ever.
At Skin Science Institute, we teach students how to personalize services for every client, helping them understand skin health from a scientific and inclusive perspective.
