This two-year program allows students interested in the field of Cosmetology to begin their training by earning approximately 600 hours of the 1500 hours required for a Maine or New Hampshire Cosmetology license over the two years. These hours will transfer to post-secondary Cosmetology schools in the area and enable students to begin their studies with a portion of the program hours completed. Beginning with basic theory and advancing to practical skills, students will explore hair sculpting, color and perm design, as well as basic nail and skin applications. Course requirements: Be able to stand for a long period of time, work with sharp objects and the tools of the trade, and wear closed toe footwear.

Please note that the number of hours transferred to the post-secondary level is determined by the accepting Cosmetology School. SRTC cannot guarantee that all hours will be applied.
