Cosmetology is a creative, challenging and growing profession offering endless employment opportunities. Cosmetologists are masters of color, line, texture, movement and dimension. Money Magazine ranks Hairstyling & Cosmetology as one of America’s “50 Hottest Jobs”. Why the demand? One reason is that more women are paying for shampoos, styling, perms, highlighting, manicures, facials and other esthetic treatments.

If you like independence, being creative, and working with people, this is the career for you. Being a licensed Cosmetologist opens doors in many related careers - all offering solid earning potential. If you’re entrepreneurial, you can run your own business. According to the National Cosmetology Association, one out of every four Cosmetologists owns their own salon and that number is projected to grow.

Compare prices before you enroll!  Private Cosmetology schools in the Greater MetroWest and Boston area charge between $9,500 and $12,000. Why pay $5,000 more than necessary for your Cosmetology license?  All Cosmetology schools are required to follow the 1,000 hour curriculum established by the Massachusetts State Board of Cosmetology.

Assabet has been training successful Cosmetologists for over thirty years. 95% of our students have been successfully employed upon graduation.

Cosmetology Refresher Course - Spring 201313SCRB02 - Cosmetology Refresher Course - Spring 2013

This Refresher Course is designed for those who have completed their 1000 hours but need a refresher course before taking the licensing exam; Cosmetologists whose licenses have expired, or those who come to Massachusetts with hours from out-of-state and who need to take the Massachusetts state licensing exam.

Refresher students will have one-on-one instruction to give them an overview of the practical section of the state licensing exam and to review procedures needing more practice. The course is set up as a one-week module but can be extended by one-week increments, as needed. The cost is $600 per one-week (12 hours) refresher module to be paid in full at time of registration. Most students need only one or two weeks to prepare for the state licensing exam.
Please call the Continuing Education Office at (508) 263-9651 to set up a meeting with the Cosmetology instructors to individualize the class to meet your needs.  Note: Before enrollment, candidates must be approved by the lead Cosmetology instructor. She will review the student’s hours and help set up his/her specific study plan. One-week modules are scheduled after the instructor meets with the student and a mutually agreeable start date is set.
