Getting Paid to Make People Look and Feel Beautiful Inside and Out Envision putting makeup on Jennifer Lopez and Al Pacino in their latest movies, styling Britney Spears' sleek and shiny hair, giving fashion advice to the stylish-and-slim The Duchess of York ("Fergie") and having the photos of your creations published in Elle, Glamour and Self. You hang out with the world's most stylish people; some are celebrities, some are members of royal families and some are "ordinary people" with discriminating tastes.

These people admire you for your midas touch that turns everything into sparkling diamonds. Most importantly, they love you and your works because you make them feel beautiful inside and out.
You call yourself a stylist and styling is your job. But, what is "styling" actually?

Styling is probably one of the most misunderstood professions of all. For many people, a "stylist" is merely a person who cuts hair and applies makeup. When one says "I'm a stylist," the first thing that comes into our mind is probably a beauty salon.

A stylist is an expert who uses art and science to make people and objects look good in order to make a statement. If your first impression about the art of styling is merely about making a simple maid looks like a million-dollar babe like J. Lo in Maid in Manhattan, you're not alone.

The lesser known fact is a stylist also works with objects, such as:

·Apparel
·Interior
·Exterior
·Merchandise
·Tabletop
·Food
·Furniture
·Landscape

It is true that the majority of stylists work in beauty salons. However, there are other places that hire creative stylists with can-do attitude. Here is a partial list of the places where a stylist usually works:

·Photo studio
·Theater
·TV set
·Film set
·Modeling runway
·Advertising company
·Magazine publisher
·Book publisher
·Catalog publisher
·Fashion house
