Hello May,
I would also take a looking a Technical/vocational high schools in your area so you can study this field while in high school to see if it a fit for you instead of pursuing in after and it being a public school you will not have to pay for it.

Be at least 16 years of age and have a high school diploma or a GED.
Enroll in a state-licensed cosmetology school.
Complete your courses. Most programs take 9-15 months to complete.
Complete training hours. Depending on the state, you will need to complete between 1,000 and 2,300 hours, including time spent in the classroom.
Pass the state licensing exam. All states require licensing for cosmetologists. Candidates for a license must graduate a state-approved cosmetology program and pass a state exam.
