Cosmetology students train in a variety of areas, including haircuts, coloring, scalp treatments, manicures/pedicures, and facials.
Natural Hair Care Specialist students receive instruction and clinical practice in natural hair care. Course content includes topics such as sanitation, anatomy, client consultation, shampooing, and natural hair care techniques. Students in this course must complete the required hours before applying to the NC Board of Cosmetic Art Examiners for examination.
