Nobody hands you a clear signpost when you’re deciding between the two, mostly because the actual answer is it depends<\/em>, which is the least satisfying sentence in the English language. Whether you’re just starting out as a massage therapist or beauty professional, or thinking about switching from a salon job to independent work, understanding what actually changes counts for more than any pros-and-cons list borrowed from a completely different industry.<\/p>\n

This one pairs closely with tax basics for independent therapists<\/a>, since classification and tax are really two parts of the same conversation.<\/p>\n
