The beauty industry is more lucrative than ever. As a beautician, you have the flexibility to create your own pattern of work within an industry that is ever-flourishing, pioneered by celebrity-culture that dictates the importance of improving your appearance. Your business can expand at your own rate in your desired direction, with innovative, avant-garde treatments emerging all the time to learn as additional skills to offer. Trends in self-care can fluctuate, but the fundamental beauty treatments are consistently in-demand within salons and mobile-therapists, varying from skin-softening facial massages to hassle-free hair-removal procedures. The Beauty Academy offers a wide range of Beauty Courses in our nine training centres based around the UK, including waxing procedures, essential manicure and pedicure training as well as specialised facial massage treatments. As many clients regularly return to the same beautician, it is in your interest to offer as many beauty-based treatments as possible to ensure profitability and repeat-business.

Please find below the courses that fall under the general heading of beauty itself. If you are looking to embark upon a career specifically as a Beauty Therapist, we recommend our Quick Start Beautician Package; a value-package comprised of the most popular beauty treatments requested in the industry. Please also see our full list of courses covering the broad range of courses that we offer.

Career Choice

If you would like to work as a Beauty Therapist and you are considering taking a training course then the the first decision you have to make is whether you want to…

Work as Self Employed

If you wish to work as a mobile therapist or offer occasional treatments from home, you will be sufficiently qualified with The Beauty Academy Diploma.

All students (except those on funded routes) receive the Diploma which allows you to gain public liability (beauty) insurance to work with paying clients from home or mobile. It allows you to begin earning straight away, even while working towards a qualification.

If you are already a qualified therapist, you may wish to study The Beauty Academy Diploma courses to refresh your knowledge or acquire new skills.

OR

Work as Employed

If you wish to gain employment in the industry or just want to keep your career options open, we recommend you to consider the Level 2 and Level 3 qualification courses.

Most employers in salons, spas, nail bars and on cruise ships will require therapists to hold a Level 2 and/or Level 3 Qualification. Qualifications demonstrate to employers that the therapist is proficient in their treatments and is committed to high standards in the industry.

If you wish to open your own salon premises or have a permanent treatment room from home, you will also usually require a Qualification to comply with local authority licensing. Students are recommended to contact their local authority before enrolling to establish the exact requirements.

    Had an amazing 5 days with Vanessa and the 5 girls I was working with in the professional makeup. Vanessa gave her full support in the style of makeup I liked to follow. Vanessa has also taught me that everyone make mistakes and ways to fix makeup if something was to go wrong. Thank you for a great time and I will be back to visit in the future when I want to extend my business ideas further.
