What Is The Difference Between Hair Design and Cosmetology?
Cosmetologists and Hair Designers are both able to design, style, color, chemically relax and straighten hair. Cosmetologists can extend services to include waxing, facials, manicuring and pedicures. With these additional services comes more training and costs.
A Hair Design license requires 1400 clock hours, while a Cosmetology license requires 1600 clock hours. This additional time in school (200 hours) will most likely result in an increased tuition cost. The Hair Design program is perfect for students who want to focus their career on hair and save time and money. Cosmetology is best for those who want to expand their service offerings.

Scheduling: Options To Fit Your Life
Our schedule flexes with you. At other beauty schools, you’re in class 3 days a week for over 10 hours a day. It can be exhausting. At Evergreen, our EverFlex classes are just 4 hours a day. Plus there are online assignments you can complete at your convenience. Not only is it more humane, but it’s a more focused way to learn as you prepare every day for a career you’ll love.
