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.
Help people feel confident and cared for. Build a hands-on career around creativity and personal service. If hairstyling and colour or skin care and spa treatments appeal to you, you're in the right place to choose between them.
