Beauty & Cosmetology

Pass your state-board nail technician or cosmetology written exam.

State boards license nail technicians and cosmetologists with a written exam built on the NIC national outline — infection control, nail and skin science, and service procedures. These practice questions drill exactly those areas, with the safety rules examiners weight most heavily.

The official exam is offered in several languages — including Simplified Chinese, Vietnamese, and Spanish in many states — and studying in your own language first makes the technical vocabulary far easier to lock in.
