Daniela’s Answer

Hi,


Graduation from an approved cosmetology school is often required in order to become a licensed cosmetologist, along with successfully completing a state exam. Students should check with their state for more detailed licensure requirements. Students typically need a high school education to gain acceptance into a cosmetology associate's degree program. However, some institutions accept current high school students.


Prerequisites: High school diploma or equivalent
Program Length: Two years
Other Requirement: Practica, license


Curriculum for an associate's degree in cosmetology includes instruction on beauty services, as well as information on identifying hair and skin disorders, sanitation and business skills. Business classes are valuable for cosmetology students because, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), many cosmetologists are self-employed (www.bls.gov). Some even go on to start their own personal care businesses. State laws and regulations are integrated in the coursework and students usually participate in practical education through student salons or clinics. Typical cosmetology classes include:


Hair cutting and styling
Nail and skin care
Make-up application
State regulations
Salon management
Health and safety


A cosmetology associate's degree program teaches students how to cut and style hair, perform manicures and pedicures and provide skin care treatments. Many community colleges, vocational schools, and private institutions offer these two-year programs.
