Beginner friendly: Moderate

To start making money as a blowout specialist, one would typically need to invest in a good blow dryer, styling tools, and products, with costs ranging from $200 to $500. Most beginners can learn the techniques through online tutorials on platforms like YouTube. Building a client base may take time and effort, but social media platforms like Instagram can help in showcasing your work. With dedication and practice, beginners can start earning a profit within 2 to 4 weeks. I'd rate it a 3 because while it requires some initial investment and learning, it's a feasible side hustle for those willing to put in the effort.
