ESTHETICS

What will you learn
Florida Academy of Beauty will prepare you from start to finish to work in a spa or to start your own practice. Every module begins with theory, followed by hands-on training. The modules consists of: Anatomy, Skin Analysis, Skin Care Products, Facials, Hair Removal, Makeup, Sanitation and Salon Management.

Prerequisites
No prior skin care experience needed.  Prospective students must pass 10th grade English before enrolling. A high school diploma or GED is not required.

Course Duration
220 hours.  If you attend classes two days per week from 9am to 9pm, you will complete the course in 2.5 months.

We have two English classes: the first class runs Mondays and Tuesdays from 9am to 9pm and the second class runs on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9am to 9pm. Students can work with the instructor to set their schedules as needed (ex. daytime only or nighttime only)

We also have a Spanish class which runs Fridays and Saturdays from 9am to 5pm.

At the end of the course, you will test with our lead instructors. You do not need to sit for a state exam.

Total Tuition
$3,540. This includes 2.5 months of instruction, supplies, a Dermalogica Student kit, and all state board license and registration fees.

FAB is a Dermalogica Partnership School so you will be trained in using the Dermalogica line of products. You also have the free option of being certified in the Dermalogica lineup as part of your instruction.

We use the latest edition of Milady’s esthetics textbook, workbook and exam review books which can be purchased via Amazon.  The ISBN numbers are listed below in the FAQ.

Only $600 is due at enrollment.  The balance of tuition can be spread out over the program.  This equates to $980 per month until graduation.  You will get a $200 discount on the program if you signup and pay in full using cash, check or Zelle.

We do not offer federal student loans or financial aid as this program is too short to qualify. Most students will attest that this program is one of the best bang-for-your-buck programs in Orlando. Most students recoup their tuition within three months after graduation when working in a spa.

Graduation
At the end of the course, you will test with our lead instructor. You do not need to sit for a state exam to become a licensed esthetician.

As a licensed esthetician, you are ready to work at a spa or to start your own salon. Once you have secured your license, it is highly recommended that you continue with your Full Specialist license as many spas value the range and flexibility of the additional training.
