== Taro Iwashiro ==
'''Cosmetology''' (from [[Ancient Greek|Greek]] {{lang|grc|κοσμητικός}}, ''kosmētikos'', "skilled in adornment"<ref>[http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cosmetic Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary]</ref>; and {{lang|grc|-λογία}}, ''[[-logy|-logia]]'') is the study and application of [[beauty treatment]]. Branches of specialty including [[hairstyle|hairstyling]], [[skin care]], [[cosmetics]], [[manicures]]/[[pedicure]]s, and [[electrology]].


There's not a single mention of Taro Iwashiro's work in this article. He composed the "Requiem for the Ishin Shishi" (RK movie ost) - tracks that were latter added to the TV series. I think this is important since he's the only RK composer that was not mentioned. {{unsigned|84.90.24.156|17:13, July 6, 2008 }}
==Types of cosmetologist==
===Hair stylist===
A hair stylist specializes in the styling of hair, including cutting, chemical services (relaxers, perms, and color as well as restorative treatments)and different types of style.
====Shampoo technician====
A shampoo technician shampooes and conditions a client's hair in preparation for the hair stylist. A shampoo tech may assist with rinsing permanent waves, and shampooing color and chemical relaxers out of the hair after processing. Shampoo techs are normally only employed by corporate or concept salons and large-volume beauty salons that are operated simultaneously. In some [[US state|state]]s, a shampoo tech must have a cosmetology permit. This is usually a temporary position, held by a person who is newly licensed with little or no experience.

I've reviewed the guidelines provided by Wikipedia and compared them to introduction we have on the article now. I see no problem. Is it time to remove the notice at the top? <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Guywithmako|Guywithmako]] ([[User talk:Guywithmako|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Guywithmako|contribs]]) 19:55, 15 August 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
A manicure is a cosmetic beauty treatment for the fingernails and/or hands. The word "manicure" derives from Latin: manus for hand, cura for "care". When performed on the feet, such a treatment is called a pedicure.

Many manicures start by soaking the hands or feet in a softening substance and the application of lotion. A common type of manicure involves shaping the nails and application of [[nail polish]]. A manicure may also include the application of artificial nail tips, acrylics or artificial nail gels. Some manicures can include the painting of pictures or designs on the nails or applying small decals or imitation jewels.

In many areas, manicurists are licensed and follow regulation. Since skin is manipulated and is sometimes trimmed, there is a certain risk of spreading infection when tools are used across many people and therefore sanitation is a serious issue.


== Samurai X TV series ==
===Esthetician===
An esthetician specializes in the study of [[skin care]], including facials, [[microdermabrasion]], [[body wraps]] (relaxing treatments which involve hot linens, plastic sheets, and blankets), [[salt glows]] (an [[exfoliation]] treatment), [[waxing]] as a form of hair removal, cosmetic make-up services and other services with advanced training. Estheticians may work independently in a spa or salon or may assist a doctor in his or her practice. Working with a doctor an esthetician may perform more advanced services that require a doctor's supervision, such as deep chemical peels. In addition to performing beauty services, an esthetician must be skilled in recommending skin and body care products and retailing them to their clients. Many state board cosmetology schools do not offer training in retailing, but post graduate colleges will offer training in retailing skills.


There used to be commentary on the original English dub for the TV series (the "Samurai X" version still aired in Asia). Where is it now? I think it's still important to general knowledge. Thank you. <span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/114.108.192.48|114.108.192.48]] ([[User talk:114.108.192.48|talk]]) 02:20, 17 September 2008 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
An esthetician can be licensed solely for that skill. An esthetician is not necessarily licensed in cosmetology, but is typically well versed in knowledge of skin care.

They both have their own articles which are linked to from the OVA section. -- [[::User:Collectonian|<span style='font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; color:#5342F'>Collectonian</span>]]&nbsp;([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]]&nbsp;'''·''' [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 02:30, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
===Nail technician===
A nail technician specializes in the art form and care of nails. This includes manicures, pedicures, acrylic nails, gel nails, nail wraps, fake nails, etc. They are also knowledgeable in nail irregularities and diseases, and may be able to identify such problems. They do not treat diseases, and would typically refer a client to a physician.


===Electrologist===
== Proposal ==
An electrologist offers hair removal services with the use of an [[electrolysis]] machine. As opposed to the hair removal via waxing offered by an esthetician, hair removal via [[Electrolysis (cosmetology)|electrolysis]] is permanent. It has recently been argued that [[barber]]s are also cosmetologists who extend the hair stylist speciality with services especially for men, such as [[shave|shaving]].

Shouldn't this page be moved to Rurōni Kenshin, per [[WP:MJ]]? It specifically states that "all long o and u sounds should be written as ō and ū respectively". Even if the '''''official English''''' title '''is''' Rurouni Kenshin, it should still be moved to Rurōni Kenshin.[[User:Moocowsrule|Moocowsrule]] ([[User talk:Moocowsrule|talk]]) 03:07, 11 October 2008 (UTC)moocowsrule
==Becoming a cosmetologist==
General cosmetology courses in the [[United States]] focus primarily on hairstyling, but also train their students as general beauticians versed in manicures, facials, etc. In a state-licensed beauty school, a certificate course in general cosmetology typically takes approximately one year to complete. Specialized, non-hairstyling courses such as manicure, facials, or makeup art are usually of shorter duration, lasting anywhere from two weeks to six months, although the most prestigious and exclusive beauty schools may offer much longer courses.


:Although, we could add "Rurōni Kenshin is advertised as "Rurouni Kenshin"." or something like that... It's just the title should be Rurōni Kenshin...[[User:Moocowsrule|Moocowsrule]] ([[User talk:Moocowsrule|talk]]) 03:22, 11 October 2008 (UTC)moocowsrule
In the United States, all states require barbers, cosmetologists, and most other personal appearance workers (with the exception of shampooers) to be licensed; however, qualifications for a license vary by state. Generally, a person must have graduated from a state-licensed barber or cosmetology school and be at least 16 years old. A few states require applicants to pass a physical examination. Some states require graduation from high school, while others require as little as an eighth-grade education. In a few states, the completion of an apprenticeship can substitute for graduation from a school, but very few barbers or cosmetologists learn their skills this way. Applicants for a license usually are required to pass a written test and demonstrate an ability to perform basic barbering or cosmetology services.<ref>[http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos169.htm Barbers, Cosmetologists, and Other Personal Appearance Workers<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>


:No, again, per our MoS we use the official English title and name which is Rurouni Kenshin. -- [[User:Collectonian|<span style='font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; color:#5342F'>Collectonian</span>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Collectonian|talk]]&nbsp;'''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 03:28, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
In most states, there is a legal distinction between barbers and cosmetologists, with different licensing requirements. These distinctions and requirements vary from state to state. In most states, cosmetology sanitation practices and ethical practices are governed by the state's health department and a Board of Cosmetology. These entities ensure public safety by regulating sanitation products and practices and licensing requirements. Consumer complaints are usually directed to these offices and investigated from there.


::But MoS is contradicting itself... do we use the official English title? Or do we add macrons? I'm confused...
Persons interested in practicing cosmetology can graduate from a general cosmetology course and then obtain a license in any of the cosmetology sub-disciplines, or they can choose to study only to become a manicurist or cosmetician. Students may choose a private beauty school or one of the many vocational schools which offer cosmetology courses to high school students. In addition, there are national organizations that provide educational and professional information.
::But you're usually right... so fine.[[User:Moocowsrule|Moocowsrule]] ([[User talk:Moocowsrule|talk]]) 03:34, 11 October 2008 (UTC)moocowsrule


:::We use the official English title. If Viz had retained the macrons, or if there was no official English title, then we would use the macrons. -- [[User:Collectonian|<span style='font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; color:#5342F'>Collectonian</span>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Collectonian|talk]]&nbsp;'''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 03:52, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
==Income==


Most cosmetologists are paid in one of three ways:

*'''Commission''': A percentage of the money made from the provision of services is given back to the cosmetologist as pay. Many paid this way are considered self-employed, and are responsible for taxes. The salon will provide overhead expenses such as products, lights, water, etc. Usually a commission is also given on retail products sold.

*'''Booth rental''': The cosmetologist "rents" a space in the salon, for a monthly fee. This type of pay is defined as self-employment and the cosmetologist is responsible for all products used (perms, colour etc.) as well as taxes. In many states, this form of payment is illegal,{{Fact|date=March 2008}} owing to the difficulty of regulating the individual cosmetologist both legally and business wise.

*'''Hourly wage''': Many corporate and small chains are going in this direction since it promotes a more controlled product by ensuring that employees are responsible for following company standards and policies.

Tips are another source of income. Skilled cosmetologists can often make a considerable portion of their income from tips from customers.
