Etymology
Cosmetologist comes from the root cosmet-, the same root as in cosmetic, from an old Greek word meaning 'to arrange' or 'beauty', and the ending -logist means 'a person who studies or works with', like biologist. So a cosmetologist is someone who works to make hair, skin, and nails look attractive.
