Many high school students are interested in learning cosmetology skills, including nail art design techniques, basic knowledge of facial procedures, color theory, hair styling, and hair coloring. There are various institutions providing cosmetology training for high school students. Obtaining training from a cosmetology program will provide marketable skills and prepare you for a promising, creative career in the cosmetology industry by the time you graduate.

Some public schools might not offer elective classes or educational hours for cosmetology. If high school students don’t have access to cosmetology opportunities at their local high school, in many cases, post-secondary beauty colleges will admit students with a GED who are 16 and older. Cosmetology students will have extensive training, online learning, access to salons, and styling chairs for performing services on real clients.

High School Students & Cosmetology Education

If you intend to take up a course in cosmetology or take a prerequisite class, you need to maintain a balance so that you give enough attention to both your school work and what you learn at the cosmetology school. Remember, if you have a genuine interest in the cosmetology industry and are confident that you want to receive training in it, there is no need to wait to graduate from high school. You can organize yourself to handle both simultaneously.

Each beauty school and high school offering credit hours in cosmetology may have different education requirements and graduation requirements. Most states and salon owners require a cosmetology license to practice in a salon. If you are currently enrolled in high school with a cosmetology program, learn if you can transfer your cosmetology course credits to a beauty college, or if your high school offers a dual enrollment program.
