34% MORE Estheticians are going to be needed in the next 8 years!








Our Esthetics program takes about 10 1/2 weeks to complete.
It is a difficult program.

There are easier programs, but they have horrible pass rates and a very low placement rate as well.


Basically you have a choice of a couple of other schools. One is about the same price, but they don't
provide you with a student kit, products, or a machine.
Also they have a not-so-great state board exam pass rate,
and and even worse job placement rate.

Think I'm kidding?
Ask them!

Check out the search engines to see their programs.

GOOGLE



Hmmmmm not so great huh? We know!


This is a GREAT time to get involved in this fun,
exciting,
satisfying,
and profitable business!

How do I start?
1. Start - HERE - by taking our online entrance exam.
2. Then e-mail your score and pass code to us.
3. Then call (907) 276-4110 and schedule your interview.
4. Figure out your financing. THIS is a great place to start.



? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Did you know that most esthetics schools in Alaska have a severe lack of equipment for you to train on?

Did you know, that many esthetics schools in Alaska provide you with a text book... That's it!
(The really advanced ones also give you a workbook. WOW!)

Do you really want to sit around on a couch reading your text book for thousands of dollars,
just to flunk the state board exam over and over?


     1. Before you sign up for any program, ask to see the equipment you will be training on.
         Do they even have any?


     2. Ask to see their pass/fail stats. (Yes, they DO have them, the board of barbers and hairdressers
         provides them!)


     3. Ask to see their placement rates. (Yes, they DO have them, the Commission on PostSecondary Education
         can provide them for you if the school refuses to.)


     4. Ask to see the student kit they provide. Do they even have one?

     5. Ask to see the facial machine they include with their program. WHAT? They don't do that? (I know!)

     6. Check their price and see what you REALLY get for your money?

     7. Call a couple places you're interested in working and see who THEY would suggest!

So... why would you even consider going to another school?

10 things YOU can do for your skin!



Train on the newest technologies in the esthetics industry!



                   





HEADS UP!
Stuff you ABSOLUTELY need to
know BEFORE you sign up for
ANY Esthetics program in Alaska!

In (2006) 111 students took the Alaska State Board Esthetics Exam,
but only 39 passed.

This means that 72 didn't pass!
This puts the pass rate for Alaska at 35% while the national average is 63%.

(But this 35% includes our 100% pass rate,
so just imagine how terrible it really is without our 100% skewing it higher!)


This means that just in 2006,
these students wasted almost half a million dollars...
supporting schools...
that do not teach... 
what their students paid them to teach!

The MetrOasis® Advanced Training Center
has the best esthetician state board pass rate of any school in Alaska
for the past three years.






Did we mention that we've also had a 100%
placement rate since the year 2000?

"Layered Learning Concept"

Our students are so successful because we use the "layered learning concept" where the materials
needed to pass the state board exam, and indeed, to be successful in a salon / spa
are presented several times, several ways, and in several mediums. It works!

Theory - Skill Goals - Clinic Floor - Internet Portal - Individual Study


We have "theory" nearly every day,
which is the book work portion of our program which helps
prepare you for your career and the state board exam.

We also have a "weekly skill goal" which is the hands on teaching portion of our program
which helps prepare you for your career and your real life experience in a salon or spa.
The schedule of skill goals can be seen here.


The "clinic floor" is where our students perform esthetic services for our clients.

We have materials for our students available on the Internet at the top of this page.
Our students are given a password and a log-on name so that they can access this information.

Our students are given study materials that they can study at school, at home, anywhere they like.




We use several educational resources as part of our curriculum.
Below you will see some of the materials we use.

In our Esthetician program you will also receive and train on your OWN machine


The eight-function facial machine (or similar machine) is part of the esthetician student kit which includes high frequency
(with multi probes),
galvanic (with multi electrodes), spray, herbal spray, lighted magnification loupe, Wood's lamp, and vacuum (multi) functions. 
The student kit also contains manual facial components which include brushes, Pharmagel products, cape, applicators, spatulas, cotton, gloves, paper goods, study center materials, etc.





Students in the Esthetician program will train on of several cutting-edge technology
photon-kinetic-energy machines, which helps
reduce pigment discoloration, reduces telangiectasis,
smooths out wrinkles and reduces pore size. These devices are also highly
effective on acne outbreaks and activate the production of collagen and new skin cells, and improves
skin flexibility while
helping to expel lymphoid toxins and increasing blood circulation.

These Photon Devices utilize
both red and blue LED's.
This machine helps to eliminate wrinkles, stimulates the skin to produce collagen and to regenerate skin cells,

improves the overall health of the skin, and increases the skin's elasticity.

These syngeristic photon devices also help to reduce pigment spots, and chloasma and aids in evening out skin tones.
The blue, limited range (415 nm) LED's penetrate the skin and the light's antibacterial nature attacks the proprionibacterium acne bacteria that causes acne.
The red, limited range (660nm) LED's soothe the skin, eliminate actinic keratoses, and help to reduce painful acne inflammation by stimulating fibroblast proliferation while helping to speed the skin ability to heal itself.

Unlike many other acne lamps, these lights produce no UV light and also help to even out the tone and texture of the skin.
These lights work on most mild to moderate acne cases with a reported 70% to 76% success.

Want clear acne-free skin? Try a couple of our anti-acne
facials with our Photo Rejuvenation equipment!

This is a light, not laser. There is no radiation. Lasers usually have one specific wavelength and use just one color. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
uses many wavelengths which allow us to treat several different conditions "at the speed of light."
We can treat rosacea, broken blood vessels, capillaries, diffuse redness of the face, or "red neck" as well as melasma, age spots,
sun spots, freckles, and general pigmentation unevenness.
There is virtually no down time and the procedure is extremely safe. It is performed while you are wide awake in the salon or school.

No anesthesia is necessary. These light treatments also help produce more collagen deep within the skin, and with just one treatment,
your skin is refreshed, less blotchy, has fewer wrinkles, and smaller pores!
