I’m currently attending OSAS for their master esthetics program and I love it. Jin, Courtney, and Alex (the instructors) are all so sweet and helpful. Not only do they educate you on how to pass state boards but they also teach you how to be successful in the industry. If you’re interested in going to school and becoming an esthetician I 100% recommend coming here I love the dynamic all of the girls have created with each other. I have learned so much already and can’t wait to be licensed

This beauty school is amazing. Atmosphere is great and very welcoming by instructors and students. This beauty school offers plenty of services to choose from which is great due to the fact there are some beauty schools that do not offer lash lifts or extensions or brow laminations. You can tell that the students are very well trained at this school by knowledgeable instructors. Highly recommend

I had a good experience. It’s really evident that everyone in charge cares about the students attending, and will help them any time they need it. I have plenty of state board practice which makes me feel confident for my upcoming exams. I think the one thing that might improve the school is having one more instructor/an assistant to help during hands on learning, just so everyone is extra secure in what they’re doing. I feel I used some of the best of best products and tools to learn, and I’m very grateful for that! Schools can easily charge more for less, but Jin made sure we always had what we needed, in the best quality, and more.

I started the Master Esthetics program in November and can say this has been a great experience. The instructors are very knowledgable, kind and supportive. I chose this school for their part time curriculum and their hands on training. If you’re looking for an esthetic school that creates a balance between work life/kids and still getting your license while having an immense amount of support this school is for you!! I am almost finished with my certification here and will miss each and every one of the instructors and classmates. Thank you Jin, Courtney, Alex and Matney ❤️

✨ IPL Facials: Transform Your Skin ✨

Ready for brighter, clearer, more youthful skin? Here’s why IPL is one of our favorite treatments:

🌞 Fades sun damage & dark spots
❤️‍🔥 Reduces redness, rosacea & broken capillaries
💫 Boosts collagen for firmer, smoother skin
✨ Improves texture & softens fine lines
🌟 Brightens and evens skin tone
🕒 No downtime — just glowing results

Perfect for clients wanting a refreshed, radiant complexion!

FAQ: 

✨ Is IPL a laser? ✨

Short answer: No!

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a broad-spectrum light treatment, not a true laser.
💡 Lasers use one focused wavelength
💡 IPL uses multiple wavelengths to target pigment, redness & uneven tone

Both are amazing tools — they just work differently! ✨

✨ Lash Lift & Tint: The Treatment Everyone’s Talking About 

If you’ve noticed more clients asking for lash lifts and tints… you’re not imagining it. This service has become one of the most requested treatments in the beauty industry — and for good reason. 👀💕

A lash lift enhances your natural lashes by giving them a beautiful curl and lift, while a tint adds rich color for that mascara-but-better look. The result?
➡️ Brighter eyes
➡️ Longer-looking lashes
➡️ Zero daily effort

Clients love it because it’s low-maintenance and long-lasting. Professionals love it because it’s quick, versatile, and adds a high-value service to their menu.

Whether you’re aiming for a natural, effortless look or you’re building your skills as an esthetician, lash lift and tint training is a game-changer. 🌟

💕 Natural. Wake-up-ready. Confidence-boosting.
That’s the power of a great lash lift & tint.
