[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does she have follow-through?  Is she self-motivated?  Is this her passion?  If yes to all of the above, she can make a good, possibly even great living doing this and as a bonus she'll escape the college debt trap that so many of her peers are going to fall into.

If she just likes hair and makeup in the same low-energy, "why not?" way most teen girls seem to, and is not excited for college and this seems like an easier path, then she'll end up broke and adrift.  Of course, sending a kid without motivation and passion to college doesn't guarantee that they'll turn their life around and straighten up.  It's not boot camp.[/quote]

OP:. She definitely has an interest but has also been the kid who never wanted to turn it up when it comes to studying.  Interestingly, she has had the same after school joh for three years as well as the retail one.  They really like her in both places and I could never see her in a cube all day.  She is good working with customers.[/quote]
