There is a fairly standard order to waxing training for students starting out in Boston: cover theory before anything else, using either our self-paced online waxing course or an accredited school's own material, then progress to the in-person or hands-on portion Massachusetts requires for licensing. Boston has 2 accredited schools on file with us, a solid starting point for comparing in-person programs. Completing the theory portion online first, before you commit to a specific school or supervised setting, tends to save both time and tuition, since you arrive already familiar with the fundamentals instead of learning them for the first time in a classroom.
