For Houston students specifically, the waxing training sequence generally looks like this: begin with theory first, whether that is our self-paced online waxing course or the coursework built into an accredited program, before moving on to whatever in-person or hands-on component Texas requires. Houston has 9 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. If Houston does not have what you need locally, San Antonio, Dallas, Fort Worth are other Texas metro areas we track in the same way.
