Getting the best degree in cosmetology will make it easier for you to beat out other competitors at salons and spas. [ beebree's advice column | Ask beebree A Question ]

It depends where you live. I would say you do more work via an online school, rather than a physical school.

In order to be good at cosmetology, you need tons of practice- at most beauty schools, you're required to put in a certain amount of practice hours or number of times doing things (i.e. perms). You need the hands-on experience, and you simply can't get that online.
My favorite makeup artist, Kandee Johnson, has a great blog post and video on this. She got her certificate in cosmetology (everything, including hair)- however, you can also get certified as an esthetician (skincare, facials, makeup, all that). She also includes a list of great beauty schools. Here it is: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
And here's a blog I like from someone attending beauty school (you may wanna start at the very first entry so it makes more sense) [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
BUT here's the first page of entries: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
Then just click on the 'Newer' link on the bottom left to keep reading in chronological order.
