That’s right; we’re talking about National Esthetician Day.
This year, National Esthetician Day falls on October 15th, and whether you’re an esthetician, have an esthetician in your life that you love, or just appreciate the estheticians you work with, it is the perfect day to show support.
At Elite Beauty Society, we couldn’t be more excited to celebrate you on this epic day. From recognizing your accomplishments to showing love, we’re all about spreading awareness, sharing our experiences, and doing our best to get down with you on National Esthetician Day.
Top Ways to Celebrate National Esthetician Day
Being an esthetician can be incredibly rewarding. You get to challenge yourself, continually learn and refine new skills, connect with clients, and build the career that you envision for yourself. It’s perfect for artists, entrepreneurs, go-getters, and personable people.
Not only do estheticians inspire us, but they also dedicate their lives to helping their clients achieve the looks they crave and the healthy outcomes they desire. From addressing skin conditions to reversing the signs of aging, estheticians can make truly meaningful impacts on their clients’ lives.
In other words, they are worth celebrating, and these are the best ways to do exactly that.
Throw an Esthetician-Themed Party
If you’re an esthetician with your own business or a beauty biz with estheticians working in your salon, take the day to throw an esthetician-themed party. Not only does this show your estheticians how much you care about them, but it also serves as an opportunity to invite your clients and potential clients to join you. The result? Happy estheticians and the chance to potentially bring more customers on board!
Deck your spa or salon out in esthetician style and throw the biggest, baddest esthetician party you've ever seen. Invite all your bestie esthies in the biz, invite your clients, pump up the jams, decorate, and make this party one that can't be missed. You can make this as casual and chill as you want, or you can go all-out and bring down the house (or salon).
Just make sure everything about this party is dedicated to honoring estheticians.
Connect with Your Esthetician Community
In honor of this epic day, make an effort to connect with the other estheticians in your community. Remember, the beauty biz is not about competition, and there’s enough opportunity for everyone to find their niche and thrive.
National Esthetician Day is all about celebration, appreciation, and uplifting your fellow beauty pros. Get your esthetician crew together and host a celebration, offer esthetician education for new estheticians in the game, and share your career advice with all your esthetician friends, both new and old.
You can even host a more sophisticated celebration by getting all your community estheticians together and organizing esthetician panels, forming groups within your community for outreach and training, and creating organizations where estheticians can network.
This day of celebration can be about more than just partying. You can form new bonds with estheticians, find unique ways to branch out in the community, and create a network of like-minded beauty pros to partner and collaborate with now and in the future.
Shoutout Your Fave Estheticians on Social Media
Want to make your fellow estheticians feel extra special on National Esthetician Day? Spend some time putting together social media shoutouts for your most cherished and appreciated beauty pros.
You can use your platform to honor them, drive attention to their pages, and give them a little love from a fellow esthetician. If you really want to take it a step further, you can run a month-long social media campaign that highlights the best estheticians in your community, spreads awareness about the world of esthetics, and creates a social media movement built around appreciation for the industry (and its pros) as a whole.
You can even collaborate with estheticians from near and far, connecting and growing your communities, learning from each other, flexing your creative muscles, and having a downright good time along the way.
Run Specials, Deals, and Bundles in Honor of National Esthetician Day
If you really want to celebrate National Esthetician Day, attracting current and future customers to your salon or spa is one of the best ways to do it. By creating special deals and bundles based on your all-time favorite esthetician services, you can compel your clients to stop by and join the celebration.
