    Description
    In this course, students study technical, theoretical, and hands-on skin-care practices. This course focuses on developing real-life industry skills in a related treatment room environment which includes skin analysis, skin care treatments, electrotherapy, hair removal, and makeup essentials. Skin care specialists must have a basic knowledge of chemistry, anatomy, and physiology in order to understand the effects cosmetics and beauty products have on hair and skin, so emphasis will be placed on these sciences. Additional focus will be on health and safety as prescribed by the California Board of Barbering and Cosmetology. Successful completion of this course will allow students to advance to ESTI 761, the second course of a two-part sequence.
