PROGRAMS and Schools with
Cosmetology Related Programs
What are the most common programs that beauty schools offer?
Most schools offer the following programs, or a combination
of the following programs; cosmetology, esthetics, electrolysis,
nail technology, and teacher training.
What is cosmetology?
The American Heritage dictionary defines cosmetology as
"The study or art in cosmetics and their use".
When beauty schools say they offer a full cosmetology program
it generally refers to the study of hair styling, skin-care,
nail care, and make-up. more info
What is esthetics?
A beauty school offering a program in esthetics training
refers to the study of applying make-up and performing facials,
massages, waxing, and reflexology.
What is electrolysis?
Electrolysis is medically recognized as being a permanent
hair removal method for the face and body.
What is nail technology?
A nail technologist studies the art of nail art and design,
tips, forms, wraps, and gels.
What is teacher training?
Teacher training programs are designed to prepare students
who are interested in teaching beauty and cosmetology. Most
of the teachers you'll have in beauty school completed a
teacher training program.
Is a "Barber School" the same as beauty/cosmetology
school?
It depends. Some beauty/cosmetology schools, known as barber
beauty schools, include programs for students interested
in becoming a barber. At the same time, there are some barber
schools that are independent and considered separate entities,
with no affiliation to beauty or cosmetology programs.
How long will it take me to complete a program?
This depends on three factors. Which programs(s) you take,
that state's required hours for those programs(s), and whether
you enroll on a part time or full time basis.
Full cosmetology programs are the most comprehensive and
require the most hours, with the national average between
1,400-1,600 hours. The average hours required for additional
programs are as follows; 650 for Nail Technology, 500 for
Electrologist, and 300 for Esthetics.
In most cases the required hours are determined by the
state licensing board and vary from state to state. For
example, a full cosmetology program in Montana requires
2,000 hours, while the same program in New York State only
requires 1,000 hours.
Regardless of which program you take, exactly how long
it will take to complete the required hours will depend
on whether you are enrolled on a full time or part time
basis. Many full cosmetology programs can be competed in
less than two years while some programs in nail technology
and esthetics can often be completed within six months.
What are "advanced courses' and does it matter
if the school I'm considering offers them?
"Advanced Courses" simply refer to a class that
offers a very-in-depth and focused curriculum about a particular
topic. Before taking an "advanced class" students
will likely be required to have taken some basic classes
in the same field. If you already know you want to pursue
a career in a specific field such as hair coloring, it's
not a bad idea if the school you attend offers advanced
courses in this field.
