Most schools on file in Idaho list cosmetology, barbering, esthetics, or nail technology in their institution names or program titles. Exact offerings vary by campus, so contact each school directly. Idaho cosmetology licensing generally requires 2,000 hours, or 4,000 hours through an apprenticeship of approved training before you can sit for the board exams. See the Idaho cosmetology licensing guide for the full rule set.

Yes. Many Idaho students complete our online theory course first to build a foundation in sanitation, skin science, and client care before enrolling in an accredited in-person program. Our course does not replace the 2,000 hours, or 4,000 hours through an apprenticeship of hands-on training Idaho requires. Pair it with a school from this directory and the online cosmetology course page for Idaho to plan your path.
