Esthetician Courses in Texas

Cosmetology is the application and study of beauty treatments. Specialties include manicures and pedicures, cosmetics, hairstyling and skin care. Skin care specialists are also known as estheticians, and this career field focuses on treatments such as waxing, microdermabrasion, body wraps and facials. Though estheticians need not be licensed in cosmetology, there are several schools in Texas that have esthetician courses and programs for students pursuing this career.
