A Great Career Choice
You are very smart to be interested in a career in cosmetology! The demand for licensed cosmetologists is growing, and expected to continue well into the next century! Federal government surveys show that new cosmetologists will be needed in the U.S. each year.

Most Scientific College graduates work in salons, and a sizable number own them. But many choose other areas of the field, such as working on cruise ships, in health spas and resorts, and with manufacturers of beauty products. The possibilities are endless!

Even in salons, cosmetologists are specializing in their own areas-hair coloring, nail art, skin care and perm waving are just a few. Scientific students get individual guidance to develop their own particular interest areas.

Just as the opportunities have never been greater, the financial rewards have never been better.

Whether you specialize in hair, skin care, nails, or all three, you'll find satisfaction and reward in this fast growing field. Jobs are plentiful and many salons now offer benefits as well as salary and commission. There is simply not a better time to learn professional cosmetology at Scientific College of Beauty and Barbering.
