Build a hands-on career around confidence, care and creativity. NSCC's beauty and spa programs give you the skills, studio time and path to professional licensure.
A great haircut or an hour in the spa chair can change how someone feels about their whole day. If that kind of work calls to you - the artistry, the client relationships, the pride of a job well done - a career in hairstyling or esthetics puts you at the centre of it. You'll train in NSCC's on-campus salons and spa-style esthetic labs, work with real clients under instructor supervision, and graduate ready to write the Cosmetology Association of Nova Scotia licensing exam.
