When i was a Beauty Therapy student
I shared my class with some of the thickest, dopiest people I have ever had the misfortune to spend time with.

Now part of the course you have to learn a hell of a lot about biology and also medical conditions (as they can contra-indicate treatments). The biology lessons held the most gems for stupidity:

Teacher: Where are new skin cells reproduced?
Dipshit Student: The eyeball!!!
Er...i think the answer you are looking for is 'stratum germinativum'.

Same girl almost cried in one IT lesson. On hearing that we would be learning about bench-marking she cried out 'But sir! I dont have a bench!!!'

I gave up beauty therapy about 3 days after finished college.
