About the program

Master Cosmetology is a 1,500-hour program covering theory and practical training in hair services, nail and skin care, sanitation, professionalism, retailing, equipment care, and salon management.

  • Level 1: The first 250 clock hours prepare you to begin working with salon clients.
  • Level 2: The remaining 1,250 hours combine further theory with practical training.

What you get

The school awards a diploma after you complete 1,500 clock hours and meet its academic and financial requirements. The diploma is not a professional license; state licensing exams and the license application are separate steps.
