Hands-On Training. Dedicated Instructors. Focused on Your Future.

If skincare is your thing, our training could be a launchpad. Cosmetology Training Center’s esthetics program can be the perfect start to your future as a skincare professional. Beautiful skin isn’t just about appearances; it’s about feeling confident in one’s own skin. At Cosmetology Training Center, you can learn skincare protocols through demonstration before moving on to hands-on skill building. Once you are ready, you can start serving real guests with licensed-instructor support. Our 750-hour Esthetics program offers practical training that can help you move from classroom to clinic floor, with evening hours that work for you and your family.

Bring your focus and effort, and we’ll match it with coaching and community that can help you start a career in skincare and beauty.

An Esthetics Program Built on Real-World Practice

Your training starts with instructor demonstrations. They’ll break down skincare routines step-by-step, before you move straight into guided practice sessions. As you develop your skills, you can start bringing those services to the clinic floor, where you can work with paying guests while your instructors stay close to offer feedback and help fine-tune your technique. Moving from demonstrations to practice to real-world experience helps you build confidence and prepare you for the real salon environment. All services are provided by students under the supervision of licensed professionals.

You can build a complete skincare toolkit of skills and techniques, from skin analysis to makeup application, hair removal, and more. We also teach you skills in client communication and basic retail, so you understand how to perform services while also delivering exceptional customer service.

Our students work with professional tools and products in the classroom and on the clinic floor and meet guest educators who share techniques used in their Louisiana spas and salons. The mix of product exposure and professional insight can help prepare you to move into a professional setting after graduation.

If you’re interested in learning how to do facials, makeup, waxing, eyelash extensions, and other skincare techniques, enrolling in Cosmetology Training Center’s program could be a great place to start.
