Waxing

Learning how to be a waxing professional is a great way to get into the beauty industry without committing a large amount of time or money to your education. Waxing professionals use wax to remove unwanted hair from people’s faces and bodies, helping them to look better and feel more beautiful and confident.

At New York School of Esthetics, we offer a 75-hour waxing program using a curriculum that is approved by the State of New York. This curriculum prepares students to sit for the State Licensing Exam.

Waxing techniques continue to evolve, so it is important to learn from instructors who are currently working in the industry and can pass on methods and techniques that are relevant to the next generation of waxing professionals. Instructors at New York School of Esthetics have decades of experience and actively provide services to clients in the community. Using a combination of theory and hands-on practice, the experienced instructors at New York School of Esthetics provide students with a comprehensive education in waxing.

New York is one of the few states that offers a waxing license. Our waxing program meets the state requirements for a professional waxing education.
