Esthetician School: A Key Consideration for the Aspiring Makeup Artist
With campuses across three states and centrally located campuses in the heart of Chicago, Tricoci University is committed to helping make your dream career in the beauty industry a little more accessible.
As an Esthetics student who is almost half-way through my program I couldn’t be happier with my choice in attending Tricoci University. On my first day my teacher told us to look around because the people in our class and campus will soon enough feel like family, I didn’t believe her then but she was so right; With how closely you’re working with your classmates you really do become close and my teachers thus far have been supportive, knowledgeable, and understanding. They care about our success and are always available for advice and tips on networking and the industry. I’m so impressed with what I’ve learned so far and the further along I move in my program the more excited I am to hit the ground running in my career.
