How much nail work in a Cosmetology program??
Posted: Sunday, April 29, 2012 4:06:05 PM

I just started cosm school..started in the nail classes first. Did manicures and pedicures the first week on clients and this is completely new to me. The school states we have to have 65 nail services before we graduate and even after that you can be pulled off the hair floor to complete nail services for a client. It seems the school gets mostly nail services and this is why it is stressed. For my state you need a minimum of 20 nail services for Cosmetology ..  .Are we being used?  FYI- I despise doing nails and toes but love anything about hair and skin.

What state are you in? Most states require hours not number of services, at least in my experience. Check the regulations at your state board vs. what the school is saying. And yes, you can be pulled to go perform any service, that is just how it goes. If the school isn't working out for you, consider a transfer.

you can and will be pulled for any service, whether you like it or not. And yes , you are being used. It is a business and they're making money .. just hold your breath until it's over!;)
