The image coach profession

How can I become an image consultant?

21 MAY 2021

Would you like to find out more about the image consultant profession, because it's something you're interested in as part of a career change? Find out if image coaching is right for you, what qualities you need to become an image consultant, and what training you need to do in order to practise. There's no standard profile for becoming an image consultant - anyone can do it, as long as they're motivated and attracted by fashion and trends.

What does it mean to be an image consultant?

Being an image consultant means first and foremost learning how to make the most of your client's lifestyle, body type, tastes and personality. By showing them what suits them, you improve their image and teach them how to manage their dressing room and create their own style. When customers come to see an image consultant, they expect to leave with the keys to knowing how to dress in all circumstances. That's why you need to give them all the answers to their questions about the look that would be perfect for them.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of working as an image consultant?

The big plus of being an image consultant is the close relationship you have with your customers. As an adviser, you listen to them and respond to their needs, while at the same time having a wide range of possibilities, specialisations and objectives at your disposal. Building customers' confidence and seeing them leave feeling good about themselves is priceless: it's extremely satisfying.

However, working as an image consultant requires a great deal of availability and time. You also have to be able to travel to customers' homes.

What qualities are essential for image consultants?

To be a good image consultant, you need to be an excellent listener, often available and, above all, thorough. The image consultant is often in the position of a confidant, which is why psychology is very important. The personal tastes of each client must be listened to without judgement, with courtesy and friendliness. A sense of social interaction is therefore a natural quality to have.

What training do I need to become an image coach?

Do I need to study to become a home sales assistant? Image consultancy may require you to have a 2-year higher education qualification (CAP Esthétique Cosmétique or Coiffure). However, there are short courses without a competitive examination that allow you to become an image consultant in just a few months. You don't need to have many qualifications to become an image consultant. In fact, experience, motivation, passion and the desire to learn are the key factors in the profession.

However, some schools offer state-recognised training, often equivalent to a Bac +3. Most of these diplomas can be taken on a continuing education basis, so that you can make a success of your career change and finally do a job that you enjoy and that you're passionate about every day.

Where can I work as an image consultant?

Once you have your image consultant diploma, you can work in a makeover agency, a beauty salon or a beauty salon. Most image consultants work as freelancers, so that they can build up their own clientele and be as close as possible to their customers.

In short, if you're interested in becoming an image consultant, and you think you have all the qualities required to be an image consultant, you now have all the information you need to get started! Being an image coach is an exciting activity that requires rigour, patience and availability, but it's also very rewarding. Helping others, being there to guide clients, but also working in fashion and makeovers is a real opportunity that you should seize if you have the desire to do so.
