Art & Science Institute of Cosmetology

The Industry

Derived from the French language, the word "cosmetology" refers to the cosmetic treatment of skin, hair, and nails. And believe us -- it's every bit as glamorous as it sounds! Cosmetology and makeup career opportunities include: color stylist, hair stylist, nail technician, retail specialist, salon manager, esthetician, industry journalist, makeup artist, platform artist, salon consultant, spa director, and more. To become a licensed cosmetologist, you'll take courses such as cosmetology chemistry; health and safety; theory of electricity in cosmetology; disinfection and sanitation; bacteriology, anatomy, and physiology; professional ethics; and client relations. You'll also take courses that directly relate to your chosen path in cosmetology, such as hair styling, hair cutting, hair coloring, bleaching, scalp treatment, facials, hair removal, makeup application, manicuring, and pedicuring. Most cosmetologists work in beauty salons or barbershops, but you can also cultivate your cosmetology career in nail salons, day and resort spas, department stores, nursing and other residential care homes, or drug and cosmetics stores. How would you like to be your own boss? According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), about 48 percent of all cosmetologists are self-employed. Many even own their own salon. Plus, in May 2017, the BLS reported median annual   wage for all workers was $37,690. Employment of barbers, hairstylists, and cosmetologists is projected to grow 13 percent from 2016 to 2026, faster than the average for all occupations. Population growth will lead to greater demand for hair care services. Your glamorous cosmetology career awaits you!
