Learn About Hairstyling, Skincare, and Nails in Our Cosmetology Program

If you are passionate about hair, makeup, and nails, then our cosmetology program might be perfect for you! In fact, you can complete our full-time course in less than a year! Our 1,500 hour program is designed to teach you skills in:

Hair cutting and styling

Makeup
Business education
And much more

An education in cosmetology can prepare you for a number of different jobs. Whether you want to work in a salon or spa, own a salon, or become a celebrity or special effects makeup artist, a foundation in cosmetology can give you the tools and skills to move into a career you’re passionate about.

With a cosmetology background, you could also consider a future as a beauty influencer or a product ambassador. In 2019 the Instagram influencer market was estimated to reach over $1.7 billion.

Influencers utilize Instagram’s high engagement rates with their followers to educate and sell their favorite products through brand sponsorships. A strong basis in makeup and skin care applications and routines could help you pursue a career in influencer marketing.

Of course, there are other options you can pursue as a licensed cosmetologist in Georgia, ranging from the owner of your own salon to working to sell some of your favorite products.

Become a Hairstylist With Our Hair Design Program

If hair is your main interest our hair design program may be the program for you! This program is slightly shorter than our cosmetology program, which makes it possible to become a licensed beauty professional in less time! It’s possible to complete this program in as little as 38 weeks.

We’ve been providing an education in hair design since we opened our doors in 2006. As a student in our program, you can learn:

Hair cutting
Hair coloring
Color correction
Formal styling
Makeup
Texturing services
Business education
And more

As part of both of our programs, we have partnered with Pivot Point International to provide a more flexible curriculum that helps students of many different learning styles.

By including this curriculum, we have added iPads to our student kits. That way, our students can more easily take their education with them wherever they go! Our students’ needs and learning are priorities here at Keune Academy by 124. Learn more about how education by Pivot Point could benefit you!
