How much info do I need to include from high school/previous jobs on my resume?

I have my esthetician (facialist) license and I need to make a resume. I'm 21 and the only jobs I've had have been at a restaurant and tanning salon. I don't want my resume to be empty but I don't want to go too in detail about random things. That being said I'm really not sure how much to include about my high school activities/achievements. I'm just not sure that a spa cares if I was in Spanish club or played soccer. While I appreciate any help I'm just looking for answers to my questions or any advice, not someone who just posts 8 resume sites or tells me to google it.
Thanks everyone!

Financial Assistance for Esthetician School?

I'm enrolled at The Salon Professional Academy in Fargo. I will be starting in September, but I am a little worried about the money for tuition and books, which is around ,000 give or take. They can't do any financial aid that is Title IV for the esthetics program (they can for the cosmetology and such, but not the esthetics one, of course.) They take cash, credit, or a loan - which leads me to trying to figure out how I am going to come up with 7,000 (they need the money before I graduate. I have a few months, but I am only 18 and my jobs don't pay me a ton. Plus I have to find a place to live.)

So my question is...

What kind of loans should I look into? My parents don't have the best credit, but myself am excellent at paying things back - I just happen to only be 18 and don't have any established credit...

Is there any non Title IV loans that could help me?

Thank you.

When is the right time to say this at a job your applying for?

I will be looking for Hair stylist/esthetician (Skin) jobs over the next month. I am getting married next October 2012. So there will be days that I need off to plan the wedding, go to appointments...and then there is the wedding it self, plus we are doing a week in Canada for our honeymoon. So, when I do tell the boss of this company that I'm applying to? There are days that I'm going to need off.

What is the point of a cosmetology high school vocational program?

The high school in my small town still offers a cosmetology program at the local vo-tech. How 1950's is that? lol Do you think they should be offering such a dated, useless program to young folks (mostly girls) nowadays?

Yeah, but they introduce these programs to 8th graders here. Isn't that a little young to be giving up on college? They're trying to convince these kids to settle for minimum wage jobs after high school.

" I Need To Know.. What Kind Of Short Term Job/Career Schooling.. I Can Take.. For A Loner?"?

I was going to go to school for five months.. which is a good time period to aquire a skill.. for Esthetician.. but the economy has failed me there.. and I was not about to pay 10 grand for nothing.. to not find work.. or a few hours a week jobs. I was looking into Vet Tech. at a Community College.. however.. the state I live in only has an associate.. not a 6-10 month program. I am worried ... if I start to take classes for the Vet Tech.. something can happen bad financially to my situation.. and I will be up the creek without a paddle. I know.. there are no quick fixes .. I just wish the Vet Tech was less time to complete. With pre requisits it could take longer even.. going part time.. Mabe.. that isn't realistic at my middle age. But.. I wanted to do something I enjoy. ..but shorter term course... to get out and make some money... without sacrificing my happiness. Please Help..Thanks
Do You All.. think I should just.. go and take the 5 months program that leads to a lisence.. in Estheology..for skin and body treatments in order to make some money and work for myself in addition to on the side and not think about the money aspect of the cost of the program? OR... Do I take the long .......road.. towards Vet Technician.. which I love animals but honestly... from all I have read this can be an extremely sad profession on a regular basis?

Which career is more rewarding?

Graphic Design, Esthetician, or Child and Youth Worker?
Note that both Graphic & Youth Worker are 3 years and Esthetician is 48weeks that jobs hiring may not be hiring then. But which in your opinion would be more rewarding?

people tell me that if i go to school for it il be with a bunch of girls and gay men..but im straight...what are the benefits of being an esthetician and cons...are there any other similar jobs dealing with the skin

Would it be a good or a bad idea to work at spa after college?

I should explain that a bit better.

Right now I am finishing a Hospitality degree and I want to work in spas. My school offers a Spa Concentration, and I would only have to take a few more courses to complete the concentration. Pretty much everything else in my degree, besides my internship hours, are done with. So far, the classes I have taken for spas covered things like types of spas, clients, design, management, marketing, stuff like that.

Right now I am interning at a medical spa in Florida, for a well-known cosm. dermatologist who also owns a day spa ( I occasionally volunteer some of my internship hours there too), so I figured it would be a good thing to have on my resume and could be a good resource. I've considered getting licenced in massage therapy but not really decided on that

My mother says that working in a spa would be too unstable, and doesn't really think it's the best idea. What do you think... are there any good jobs at spas (day, destination, etc) out there that I could do?

Which career pays more? Esthetician or Hairstylist? I live in Southern California.?

I like both and am planning on one or the other. I was just wondering. I see alot of jobs available for facialists, but also for hairstylists. I've looked into school and am going to speak with a counselor next week. Thanks in advance
missdallas, I didn't ask if it were easy or hard nor did I ask for life advice. I also didn't ask for coaching on how to make the MOST money, but which of the 2 would make more. Stick to the actual questions to be a better answerer.
