I agree with all the previously stated don't pick your career around how to meet guys, but seriously, seriously, at least in this town, barber/hairdresser mesh together and your clientele could be any gender, depending on what you like doing/what kind of venue you work in/whatever/etc.
If you wanna be a hairdresser, consider also: are you patient? Patience is HIGH on the requirement list. also, a propensity for standing on your feet a lot, a willingness to work saturdadys, creativity, major people skills, and a tolerance for gossip/drama/etc, are helpful. and if you're not already the kind of girl who can't leave the house without makeup on, This will turn you into one. Because everyone else wears makeup, and you spend all day standing in front of a mirror.

 I work in a science job because I like what I do, but I never had any expectations that my job would bring opportunities with men. It didn't and I met my husband (and all ex's) through social occasions. If you like hairdressing, just do it! You shouldn't even think about using your workplace as a place to chat up colleagues and customers though; it is just not professional and causes all sorts of problems in the long run. If you want to meet guys then go out places socially with your friends and just be yourself...soon enough, someone will come along who is right for you.

 Do not choose your career based on meeting guys. AS a woman, you already have the power of meeting guys whenever you choose. This would seem like an extreme measure to achieve something you can already do on your own. Your line of work should be something that interests you.

 Look, do not choose your program of study and future career on meeting boys in your classroom. Figure out what you want to do with your life careerwise because IT SUITS YOU, and pursue it.
You are a woman, and you will be getting appraoched by men all the time. Just make yourself available in book store, coffee shops, clubs and bars, and be open to being appraoched. You will have no problem.
If you want a career where you will meet LOTS of men, stripping, porn and prostitution are a start, but the fringe benefits (like STDs) are terrible. This is sarcasm BTW.
Seriously, focus on getting your life in order, and develop on pursuing your own interests. You will meet boys through explore your interests as well. The boys will come.

 Hi there! I would say that they are many places to meet boys. You could meet someone anywhere anytime; but please, don't choose a career to meet them! Whether you choose college or apprenticeship, you have to bear in mind that, at the end of the day, you will have to do the work asked for. Training and learning are very demanding and even if you will have plenty of time to have fun, you will also have to listen, learn and work hard. You will have to do your best to really enjoy it. Sometimes, it is by being happy and smiling that we attract people... You have to think seriously about what type of job you would like to do and you would be ready to work really hard for. You can still meet boys in town, cafes, libraries, parties...buses!
Hope it helped a bit, best of luck in your studies.
Take care.
