Helping Canadians get back to work.
Aesthetics
Estheticians work in spas and salons, providing a variety of services including nail technology, manicures and pedicures, make-up, skin care, and facials. They require knowledge in human anatomy, skin care, nutrition, sterilization, and sanitation.
Graduates of the Pina B’s Academy of Aesthetics program receive training and practical experience in areas vital to the spa and salon industry. Through classroom instruction, discussion, observation, group work, skill demonstrations, assignments and evaluations, students cover the theory and skills needed in this field. Through hands-on practical opportunities and assessments, they develop their skills and responsibilities as a part of a team.
