Meet Oregon’s Requirements for Cosmetology
In Oregon, the Health Licensing Office (HLO) regulates licensing for all fields of practice under cosmetology, which includes Hair Design, Nail Technology, and Esthetics. To become a fully licensed cosmetologist in the state, you must attain a certificate in all three of these fields and take additional courses in career development, safety, and sanitation.
Our combination Hair, Nails, & Esthetics course includes 1,835 hours of training, covering each field of practice and additional state requirements.
When you successfully complete our program, you are eligible to sit for the HLO examination for an Oregon certificate in hair design, nail technology, and esthetics. This is a crucial step in obtaining licensure as a cosmetologist in the State of Oregon.
Cosmetology School FAQs
We know you are eager to begin your career! Students can complete our cosmetology course in as little as 15 months. Your completion date will depend on your schedule, when you start the course, and your attendance record. We offer day and evening course schedules so you can fit your cosmetology education in with other commitments like work, family, and school. Our admissions representative can tell you more about the timing and help you predict a completion date during your campus tour.
Every state has different licensing requirements for cosmetologists. In Oregon, for example, you must have a certificate in hair design, nail technology, and esthetics to be a fully licensed cosmetologist. Having your full cosmetology license gives you the best opportunity to transfer your licensure to another state in the future, so it’s the course that gives you the most flexibility if you think you may move to another state in the future.
