I oppose apprenticeship programs in esthetics in the Commonwealth of VA. I think formal education in the esthetic field provides crediibility, safety, experience and gives the ethetician the knowledge to educate the public in the many services that it provides. Clients expect estheticians to know about products, ingrediants, safety, which treatments are best for their skin condition/type and why, I don't believe that an apprenticeship program can adequately train someone for these expectations. I feel that esthetics is much more than putting products on faces and that it should be given the respect by upholding the current laws that the Commonwealth has established.
