I was wondering a lot about what Sugimoto-san was saying. I think that the average Japanese person has it ingrained that you follow the rules and don't ask why. It does have its merits, but I think individuals end up suffering so much that I really don't think it's worth it. If I do follow the path of apprenticeship though, I'll definitely make it a point to do it my way. As for F1 visa for students, I'm not sure. On the other hand, I also wonder what school (at least the actual curriculum) really has to offer for me. I think that in terms of being a stylist, many of the skills are readily available outside of schools. It's mostly a matter of how you get yourself out there once you have those skills.

You can go for it, but the outcome is entirely up to the individual. There are people who half-ass everything and don't learn anything, or make any connections. They commit casual time, therefore obtaining casual lives. Then there are those who stay focused, and really go that extra mile. Those are the people who become successful. That's the same idea with a かばん持ち。　"Roadies" of artists. You can take the initiative and learn something and make connections, or you can try to make it on your own. Both options have pros and cons. Visa and Money are definitely an issue. Does Japan issue F1 visas for students? If that's the case, maybe you can go to school? That way there will be a lot of people you can meet, and all the resources. You have a lot to offer, so somebody will be more than happy to sponsor you, i'm sure of it. Make your dream a reality. If there's anything I can do to help, I'll be more than happy to do so. まだまだ先は長いぞ！ I think apprenticeship is a lot like school. You can go for it, but the outcome is entirely up to the individual.
