An education in esthetics can lead to a variety of career paths. Our esthetics program prepares students to sit for the State Exam, so graduates can then go on to become professional estheticians at a local spa or a resort. Some estheticians pursue a career in medical or paramedical esthetics, while others become makeup artists. Estheticians could go on to become beauty or skincare brand representatives, beauty bloggers or influencers, or waxing technicians. Becoming a spa manager or owner is another career option for estheticians that provides personal freedom and flexibility.
