Blessed are those who have a job they love because they don’t have to work for a day in their life. Suwarna Dilip Gugle is one such fortunate person who discovered her passion very early in life and pursed it relentlessly. Today it has taken her places.
She was in London recently for a short beauty course to upgrade her professional skills. She is into beauty business.
Beauty is not just skin deep, says Suwarna. “Looking presentable is very important. The first impression has to be good and that comes through your looks. Inner beauty should be there but looks too are important. It adds to your confidence.”
Suwarna specialises in handling skin and hair problems using electromedical apparatus, skin tightening, enhancing, anti-wrinkle and skin lifting treatments. She is also an expert in mesotherapy, derma pen skin needling treatments and advance chemical peels. She also has expertise in haircuts without shortening the length and hair styling, besides spa therapy, reflexology, Thai massage, acupuncture, pedicure, nail treatment, cosmetics and skin products advice, among others.
Suwarna has been into beauty business since 1986, running her own parlour in Pune (Rajasthan Beauty Parlour And Institute). Since last year she has also been working with the Maharashtra Government's beauty therapy academy (Yashaswi Academy for Skills) imparting beauty skill training to underprivileged girls under the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana. Suwarna is in-charge of the academy responsible right from setting up the course, teaching the students, training the faculties, etc.
She is also the author of two popular books – ‘Basic Beautician Course’, and ‘Basic and Advance Haircutting’. The fact that Maharashtra Government is using her books (as syllabus) for ITI courses is a testimony to their popularity.
“It’s a good career option. Like other subjects, beauty also has its own science. Unless and until one upgrades, one cannot survive in this business for long. Most importantly, a beautician should know the contraindications – i.e. she should know when a particular beauty product or therapy should not be used because it may otherwise harm the customer,” says Suwarna.
