I'm not sure if I am supposed to file a 1099 for self employment or not. As a beautician what type of form should I file to claims the wages I've made for 2016?

You don't need a form. You enter your income from your own records.

The IRS considers undocumented cash income (no W-2 or 1099-MISC), for work performed, to be self employment income. Enter at "Business Income & Expenses" and TurboTax (TT) will complete Schedule C or C-EZ for you and allow you to deduct any expenses associated with this income. You'll also have to pay self employment tax (social security) on any profits greater than $400.
