  • All I can say is WOW! This is probably the most intense continuing education I've taken in the 10 years since I started my business. So much good scientific information.

  • This course not only expanded my understanding of skin, hair, and grooming techniques but also equipped me with the ability to evaluate products, conquer skin issues, and offer holistic treatments with confidence. It’s been a game-changer.

  • The journey to becoming a skilled master esthetic groomer has been profoundly transformative for me, influencing both my personal growth and professional growth for my business.

    Rachel A., MTPAe

  • It was one of the most intensive and thorough courses I have ever taken. I had no idea how in-depth and scientific it would go, but I am thrilled to have come out the other side with the vast knowledge and experience (backed by science!!) I now have.
