600 Hour Electrology Program

This program is designed for comprehensive training in permanent hair removal. Our program covers much more than basic training in the field of electrology.

Our 600 Hour Online Electrology Program gives you the ability to take the "Theory Portion" of the program online from the comfort of your home. This saves you both time and money. Instead of attending our Long Beach campus for as long as four months, you can cut your training time by up to a half, by attending our school to complete only your practical training. Same training, half the time and reduced tuition and housing costs!
