Texas Esthetics Degree Programs

Esthetics Degrees and Training in Texas


There is very little to dislike about living in Texas. It might get a little hot from time to time, but that is a small price to pay for the lifestyle, people, culture, and diversity that come with the package. Centrally located as it is, you easy access to either coast, Mexico, and America's heartland. But chances are, you will want to spend most of your time within Texas itself; it has so much to offer.

Esthetician programs can lead to several career choices

Becoming an esthetician, or aesthetician, can be a satisfying, versatile career in itself, or a way to expand business opportunities at a beauty shop, spa, or medical office. Esthetician courses vary greatly.

Match esthetician training to your career goals

If becoming an esthetician as quickly and cheaply as possible is important, you may prefer a local or regional school with minimum requirements. If your goal is operating a business or becoming a medical esthetician, choose a more comprehensive program. Esthetician schools can have some or all of the following courses:

  1. Record-taking: Creating a record of a client's verbal description plus evaluating the skin's appearance, condition, and treatments
  2. Equipment use: Using visors, magnifying lamps, lasers, and other tools
  3. Preparation: How and when to cleanse a client's skin with the appropriate products
  4. Treatments: Improving facial or other skin with appropriate products and techniques including chemical peels, masks, laser hair removal, electrology, and supervised medical treatments
  5. Business: Referring clients to doctors, record keeping, finances, marketing, communications, and more

Esthetician career possibilities

May 2010 figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics show a mean hourly wage of $15.90 per hour and a mean annual income of $32,030 for those working in the field. Career preparation can require licensing, work experience, and a certificate or associate degree. Your career opportunities include:

  1. Full or part-time work at a hair salon or spa
  2. Operating your own business
  3. Work in a dermatologist's office and potentially do more advanced procedures

Being an esthetician is satisfying work because it affects your clients' appearance and self confidence. It can be skilled, meaningful work in a fast-growing field.
