I had an amazing experience at IIC. I've learned so much in such a short period of time and couldn't be happier with Ms.Jessica as my educator.
This experience all together has confirmed that I made an amazing choice for a career. Ms.Rosie was and always will be the best part of it.
Thank You for helping my dreams come true!
I previously graduated from IIC in 2017 from the aesthetics program. I returned to the school because of how well they treat their students and the education I received was amazing.
Since starting on my journey to becoming a hair stylist at International Institute of Cosmetology, I have been inspired in ways I never could have imagined. When you walk into the school, you immediately feel a part of a family.
Ms. Jessica was a great teacher who not only taught us what we needed to know but taught us from her own experiences as a lash technician and business owner. I enjoyed this class and would recommend to others.
Unfortunately, due to the short length of this program, the Department of Education does not permit financial aid for this program. You can look at alternative funding solutions such as scholarships or a loan from your bank or credit union. Our school offers a split payment option, as well.
Completing all requirements of our 100-hour program lead to a CT Nail Technician License.
