Select a high-interest and informative topic to produce a quality paper and expand your understanding of the field.
  
  

Tanning Beds and Skin Cancer

• While tanning beds are effective in producing that much sought-after glow, they have also been linked to skin cancer. Explore this concept, gathering information on skin cancer and its apparent connection to tanning bed use. Research proposed methods to modify ways in which tanning beds work to reduce the risk that they pose to individuals who use them regularly. Discuss the ethical issues associated with allowing individuals to use tanning beds when the beds could pose a health threat.
  
  

Nutrition and Beauty

• Proper nutrition not only leads to physical health, but has also been connected to aesthetic beauty. Research the connection between healthy eating and exercise and beauty. Look beyond the obvious muscle toning benefits for lesser known connections, such as the consumption of lean proteins leading to healthier hair and skin tone. Discuss ways in which nutrition can lead to enhanced beauty throughout your paper.
  
  

Germ Prevention

• The close quarters of a salon can be a haven for germs. Gather information on germs that commonly fill a salon. Research methods of preventing the spread of these germs. Discuss steps the cosmetologists must take to ensure their clients' safety and keep those they service free of contact with undesirable germs.
  
  

Cosmetology Schooling

• Cosmetologists can obtain their training through a number of channels. Research the potential routes to the acquisition of a cosmetology degree. Discuss the benefits of vocational programs in high school as well as immersion programs for older students. Explain which option is the most cost-effective as well as which allows you to obtain your credentials the most quickly.
  
  

What is Beauty?

• Consider the concept of beauty in your cosmetology paper. Explore what past philosophers have said about beauty and what makes something beautiful. Research the properties in a human that scientists say are considered beautiful, such as symmetry. Discuss the ways in which you, as a cosmetologist, work to make your clients as close to this prescribed notion of beauty as possible.
