At Adrian’s College, our esthetics course combines the art and science of beauty to teach you the skills and techniques you need to create beautiful skin.

In our 600-hour course, you can learn various techniques for facials, hair removal, makeup, and more. Our hands-on training in the student clinic allows you to practice on real clients under the guidance of experienced educators.

See What Our Students Have To Say

I'm a student here and I love it! I've tried other schools and they weren't as thorough. Most only focused on passing board. Adrian's not only focuses on that you can pass state board testing, but they also make sure you have the skills to succeed in the salon and beauty industry!
