FULL SPECIALIST

What will you learn
The Full Specialist program is a combination of the Esthetics and Nail Technology courses.  For accelerated training, you will spend two days per week in the nails program and then two days per week in the esthetics program.

Hollywood is a Dermalogica Partnership School so as part of the Esthetics course, 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.

Employers value the versatility of a Full Specialist.  Upon graduation, you will be much more attractive to employers as compared to holding only an esthetics or nail technology license. This is especially true if you plan on working for a large spa.

Course Duration
400 hours.  Classes run from Monday to Thursday from 9am to 9pm.  You will complete the course within 3 months. If you can only attend half-day or can only attend on certain days, you can work with your instructors on a customized schedule.

Total Tuition
$5,170 which represents a $1,190 savings as compared to signing up for each program individually. This includes 3 months of instruction, a Dermalogica esthetics kit, a nail kit, apron, all state board license and registration fees. We use the latest edition of Milady’s textbooks, workbooks and exam review books which can be purchased via Amazon. The ISBN numbers are listed below in the FAQ.

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

Only $800 is due at enrollment.  The balance of tuition can be spread out over the program.  This equates to $770 per month until graduation.  You will get a $300 discount on the program if you signup and pay in full using cash, check or Zelle.

You save $1,190 in tuition when enrolling as a full specialist as compared to signing up for each program individually.

Federal student grants and loans do not apply for any 400 hour Full Specialist program in the State of Florida. This is because federal funding only applies to programs above 600 hours. However, 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.

Career Opportunities
With a Full Specialist license, you can work at a nail salon, esthetics spa or to start your own spa/salon. Employers prefer Full Specialists over a single Nail Technician or Esthetics licensee because of their versatility and further training.
