student looking for advice
hello! i'm currently in cosmetology school in Texas, right now at about 700 hours.
my plan is to move to California with my partner once i finish school and get my license, and just go through the motions of transferring my license from TX to Cali.
the thing is, i didn't realize California did not require the practical state board exam... and i don't know about everyone else, but i HATE the practical state board (lol) and i've been dreading it all along- more than the written test for some reason.
if i'm going to be immediately transferring my cosmo license to california after graduating, is there even any reason to take the state board practical exam?
i can't decide which would be the best option for me to take- finishing my cosmo license here in texas and take the practical state board exam (blagh)
OR get my cosmo license in cali, since i'm moving there immediately anyways, and they don't require me to take it at all. i'm not sure which path makes most sense for my situation.
(sorry if i'm kind of clueless about all of this, i'm a good bit younger than a lot of the other students at my school and the teachers haven't been the best resources for questions like this)
if anybody else has transferred their license / hours to another state, or any kind of wisdom for this situation, your advice would be very very appreciated :)!! thank you reddit lol
