The Course

This course gives you the practical skills to provide effective facial skin care treatments in a salon setting.

You will learn how to carry out facial treatments that support healthy skin. This includes cleansing, skin analysis and massage techniques. You will also build your understanding of how to care for different skin types so you can adapt treatments to suit each client.

Alongside practical skills, you will develop knowledge of health and safety in a salon. You will also learn how to communicate with clients in a professional and supportive way. This helps you create a positive experience and build confidence when working in the beauty industry.

This course is ideal if you are looking to start a career in beauty or develop your existing skills.

Assessment will take place through practical observations and written work.

You should wear a salon-style uniform if you have one or all black clothing.

There are no formal qualifications required. An interest in beauty therapy and working with clients is important.
You can progress onto Level 3 Beauty Therapy courses or other advanced beauty pathways.
