What Does Beauty School Teach?

When you enroll at Inspire Greatness Aveda Institutes, you’ll learn through a combination of classroom courses and hands-on experience in our supervised Student Salons and Spas. You’ll see techniques demonstrated by knowledgeable instructors, then practice them yourself on real clients. We also offer a variety of programs, allowing you to focus on the path that most interests you. Choose between:

  • Cosmetology: Learn the fundamentals of hair cutting, coloring, and styling, nail care, skin treatments, and other salon skills, in addition to best sanitation practices.
  • Esthiology: Discover how to analyze your clients’ skin, then recommend and perform the best treatments to maximize their beauty, health, and well-being.
  • Master Esthiology: Take your esthiology training beyond the traditional offerings with advanced skin care and medical techniques used in high-end salons and spas.
  • Massage Therapy: Explore a wide variety of massage techniques, from Swedish massage to acupressure and hydrotherapy, to provide relaxation and stress relief.
  • Hairstyling: Learn how to cut, color, shampoo, and style hair, dress wigs and extensions, and help your clients achieve the eye-catching looks they want.
  • Barber: Practice hair cutting, clipper and razor shaving, fades, coloring, and beard care with a special focus on men’s and unisex beauty.

 

All our programs also cover business essentials. Students graduate with the financial skills they need to run their own businesses, in addition to an understanding of marketing techniques to make their unique brand known.

Benefits of Attending Beauty School

Cosmetology, esthetics, and massage careers are about more than makeup and magazines. These are highly rewarding paths that allow individuals to explore their artistic passion while connecting with others. Whether crafting new hairstyles, soothing stress with salon spa techniques, or reviewing a cutting-edge new beauty product, you’ll take pride in your ability to show mastery while helping people find the sense of confidence and well-being they are looking for.

Not only will you help others, but you’ll also build strong relationships. Clients often bond with their stylists and massage therapists, choosing the same professionals over and over to receive a service they love and trust.

Careers in beauty also offer excellent flexibility and security. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), nationwide employment for cosmetologists, hairstylists, and barbers is expected to grow by 7% over the next decade, and employment for massage therapists is expected to grow by 18%. The job outlook for estheticians is strong, too, with employment of skin care specialists projected to grow 10% through 2032.

With new positions opening across the country, you can find opportunities anywhere – and you’ll feel confident in your ability to keep working.
