School Accreditation

You must attend a school that is approved by your state to provide training in the discipline you want to practice. Check with the school and the state board to be sure that your program of study will prepare you for any applicable state licensure.

Oregon Esthetician Licensing

The Oregon Health Licensing Agency (OHLA) requires 250 classroom hours on basic esthetics procedures such as facials, waxing, and makeup application. The State Board of Cosmetology mandates an additional 150 hours of education in Safety and Infection Control, and 100 hours covering Career Development. Oregon does not allow apprenticeships to replace classroom training for esthetician students. After the classroom education is completed, students take the Oregon written and practical exams. Oregon only offers the board examinations in English.

Oregon esthetics school curriculum includes:

– basic skills for facial massage
– skin analysis
– treatments
– the identification of skin disorders

Students learn when to refer clients to medical professionals for treatment of skin diseases. Hair removal techniques including waxing are taught, along with application of cosmetic products. Students learn to recommend treatments to help clients lessen age-related skin damage and maintain the healthiest skin possible.
