Why Choose CTC for Esthetics Training?

Locally-owned and accredited, Cosmetology Training Center offers small class sizes and evening hours designed to fit around real life. Founded in 2024 by owner Brittani Pitre, an esthetician and spa owner with 18 years of industry experience, the program was built around the real-world skills and techniques today’s esthetics professionals need to succeed. From early in the program, you’ll work with guests under licensed supervision, so technique becomes second nature, and you will grow a portfolio of services.

We also offer ongoing career support, including help with your resume, interview practice, and local networking (employment isn’t guaranteed). Move from classroom to clients with confidence.
