our COSMETOLOGY curriculum

what will you learn in the cosmetology curriculum? —

Our industry-leading Cosmetology program combines 500 hours of essential classroom theory with 1,000 hours of hands-on salon experience to build your confidence and get you ready to pass your licensing exams and start your new beauty career. You’ll cover a wide range of topics, from hair cutting, coloring, and texture services to nail care, makeup application, business development, retail knowledge, and the art of gaining and retaining clients. 

Hair is the cornerstone of cosmetology, and our program focuses on essential techniques such as hair cutting, coloring, styling, waving, wigs, and shampooing. However, we know you want more than just the basics—and we’ve worked hard to create a curriculum that delivers.  

Alongside hair essentials, our Cosmetology program also covers beauty topics such as skin care, facials, massage, and manicuring, as well as other must-know subjects including state board rules, safety and sanitation, and client consultations. 

In the final phase of your cosmetology training here at our Baton Rouge campus, students concentrate on mastering next-level precision trends in our newly renovated open-plan salon. This supervised experience helps to ensure you’re ready to launch your new career with the latest techniques already under your belt. 

There’s also plenty of opportunity to practice your new skills with our extracurricular activities, including charity drives, fashion shows, and contests!
