Since 2003, North California Institute has served as the area's premier beauty training school, offering challenging training programs in nail care, skin care, and general Cosmetology. All three programs are designed to prepare students to successfully pass the state board exams and work as hair stylists, nail technicians, estheticians, and cosmetologists.

The curriculum for the cosmetology, nail care, and skin care programs are structured to offer students a broad range of subject matter, along with valuable practical experience. The cosmetology program is the longest, requiring more than 1,600 hours of dedicated study. Students will learn the fundamentals of cosmetology through courses in anatomy, physiology, and basic chemistry, and hone their hands-on skills through hundreds of hours of practical application.

Similarly, the 600-hour esthetician program is designed to provide quality training for future facialists and skin care professionals through courses in skin care, makeup application, hair removal, eyebrow arching, and facial manipulations. The nail technician program requires the same amount of hours but provides a more in depth concentration on nail and manicuring techniques. Both programs incorporate ample hands-on time in a mock salon. With small class sizes and flexible scheduling, North California Institute of Cosmetology offers individualized attention and one on one training for each student in a supportive environment of peers and professionals.
