Esthetics Program

HDC’s Esthetics Program is a unique, comprehensive program offering students the opportunity to learn in a traditional classroom, and refine their skills in their on-site, fully functional spa. Designed and taught by cosmetology experts, the Esthetics Program gives students a solid foundation in the critical skills they need to build an exciting and rewarding career as an esthetician. To begin, students train to develop a fundamental understanding of esthetic services such as facial services, hair removal, makeup techniques, nail services and enhancements.

Following this, students are given a grounding in the skills required to give their clients high-quality treatments. This includes general sciences such as infection control, anatomy, chemistry and skin sciences. Finally, to ensure students are able to build and manage a successful career, the Esthetics program includes training in business-building skills. Graduates will learn how to manage clientele relationships and retention, deliver product recommendations, and plan their careers—all critical skills for the development of a long and successful career in esthetics.
