The full license: hair, skin and nails in one credential.
Enrollment opens upon CIE licensure. Leave your contacts — you will be first in line with the exact start date and payment schedule.
The 1,200 hours are organized in attendance blocks built for working adults: full-day (9:00–17:00), half-day morning or evening blocks, plus Saturday options. Your personal completion date depends on the block you choose — full-day students finish in about 12 months, evening-track students in about 15.
Hours are logged in the state-required format from day one; you see your running total and remaining balance in the student portal at any time.
The kit is included in the all-in price and is yours to keep after graduation.
From the middle of the program you work on the student salon floor: real clients book real services at school prices, and every service is checked by a licensed instructor. This is where speed, consultation habits and rebooking skills actually form — and where many students build the first clients who follow them after graduation.

As a school in the CIE licensure process we do not offer federal Title IV aid. Instead we keep prices all-in and provide interest-free payment plans from $745/month, so no loan is needed.
Scope: only the Cosmetology license covers hair. If you know you want hair, this is the credential; if you want the fastest licensed entry, compare the 180-hour Nail Specialist program.
Enrollment agreements for licensure programs begin after the school's CIE licensure is granted. Join the interest list — you will get the exact start date and payment schedule first.
