Esthetics is at the heart of what we do at Cincinnati Institute of Esthetics and Nails. Because of that, we dedicate extensive resources to continually expanding and updating our esthetics education to reflect the techniques, modalities, products, and services being used in today's professional skincare industry.

More Training. More Techniques. More Opportunities.

Here at Cincinnati Institute of Esthetics and Nails, your education extends beyond traditional esthetics fundamentals and state curriculum requirements and includes advanced and specialty training such as:

  • Dermaplaning Certification
  • Advanced Modalities & Equipment
  • Lash Lift Training
  • Brow Lamination Training
  • Lash Extension Certification
  • Advanced Treatment Techniques
  • Professional Product Knowledge
  • And More

We continually evaluate our curriculum and training opportunities so students are exposed to current techniques, equipment, products, and services they may encounter as they enter the industry.

Experience Multiple Professional Skincare Lines

We believe students should graduate understanding that professional skincare isn't one-size-fits-all.

Throughout the program, students have exposure to a variety of professional, high-quality skincare products and brands, including Image Skincare, Circadia, Face Reality, Dermalogica, and more.

Working with multiple professional product lines allows students to become more comfortable evaluating products, understanding ingredients, selecting appropriate treatments, and adapting to different professional environments after graduation.

The 600 Hours Are Just the Requirement. What You Learn During Them Matters.

Our goal isn't simply to help students complete 600 hours.

We want those hours to count.

From foundational esthetics and professional skincare to advanced modalities, specialty certifications, hands-on experience, and exposure to professional product lines, our 600-Hour Esthetics Program is designed to give students a well-rounded education and a strong foundation for continued growth within the industry.

It was my first visit and I had so many questions about the dermaplaning and the best follow up. Jenna put me at ease, answered all my questions and gave me a good guideline for dealing with my unwanted facial hair going forward. She was a pleasure to work with and I have no hesitation about going back.
