THE WAY WE TEACH
Through our family's over 40 years work in cosmetology education we have developed a system of successfully training cosmetologists. It involves the use of products of major manufacturers along with modem hairstyling techniques. Our students have been successful because of our unique instructional program which is divided into three levels:
Level I
Introductory work in skills and theory, which is three (3) months in length, using a unit method.
Level II
The student begins working with live models in the clinic under instructor supervision, with time devoted to specialized group activities.
Level III
Additional clinic work under instructor supervision with advanced work in haircutting, styling, shop management and related materials.
PROGRAM LENGTHS
GENERAL COSMETOLOGY:
For a full time student (35 hours/week) it will take 10 months to complete the 1500 hour program. It can take up to 18 months for part time students.
MANICURING: For a full tine student (35 hours / week) it will take 10 weeks to complete the 350 hour program.
