Cosmetology Certificate

The field of cosmetology relies on creative people who use their ability to visualize shapes and forms for hair design and personal care. Cosmetologists need manual dexterity, an understanding of chemistry and superior client communication skills. This program provides theory and skill development in shampooing, cutting, shaping, curling and coloring hair, as well as manicuring and esthetics.

Employment opportunities are available in beauty salons, department stores, health care and hotel facilities. Entrepreneurship opportunities are also available for cosmetologists who choose to pursue this pathway. Additional employment choices include nail artist, complexion care, cosmetic or beauty supply sales and services, manufacturing technician and color chemist.

Enrollment is limited in the program. Admission requires an interview, testing. Contact the salon at 913-469-2390, for additional information.

Certain courses within this program require a professional liability insurance fee. Students will be notified via their JCCC student e-mail account if they are required to pay a $16 fee. The dollar amount for fees is subject to change.
