Avalon School of Cosmetology Now Accepting Applications For New Esthetics Program at Phoenix Campus

Online, April 25, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Enrollment is now open for the new esthetics program being offered at the Phoenix, AZ campus of Avalon School of Cosmetology, with classes starting this June. As a promotion, the first class of students will receive a free Advanced Makeup Class with a value of $2500.

Avalon's proven esthetics program will be available in a new Phoenix facility of the cosmetology school, and students can expect to learn the most up-to-date therapies and technologies in the skin care industry, some of which are:

* Skin analysis and consultation
* Facial procedure and treatments
* Skin histology and physiology
* Sanitation and disinfection
* Manual lymphatic drainage
* Aromatherapy
* Waxing and Perming
* Manicures and pedicures
* Makeup design
* Lash and brow tinting
* Professionalism and retailing

Avalon's high quality skin care education is further enhanced with their new association as a Dermalogica Partnership School. This unique opportunity introduces the professional-grade Dermalogica products and advanced training to the cosmetology school's reputable esthetics program.

The Advanced Makeup Class awarded to the first eight students is a comprehensive two week course providing practical experience in the fundamentals of modern beauty makeup. Once entering the workforce, graduates who complete this course will benefit from the additional experience and practical skills, and can expect to have a leg-up on competition.

While Arizona job growth numbers remain far from robust, prospective cosmetologists interested in enrolling for classes this summer can breathe a sigh of relief. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the recession-proof field is expected to grow by 16 percent in the coming decade, well above the occupational average. This is good news for graduates of the esthetics program, who will be trained in one of cosmetology's most promising branches.

Avalon requires its applicants to have a high school diploma or General Equivalency Diploma (GED), and the programs offered are perfect for recent high school graduates or those with a passion for beauty.

Those interested in learning practical esthetics this June should visit the admissions info page on Avalon's website and book an appointment with one of Avalon's representatives. Early applicants may find themselves enjoying a free industry-leading makeup class.
