Esthetics and master esthetics are not interchangeable
Virginia distinguishes esthetician and master-esthetician licenses. A class in an advanced treatment does not automatically expand the services your license permits. Confirm the scope of practice with the Board, especially for advanced exfoliation or services advertised in medical-adjacent settings. Makeup and hair removal appear in Virginia esthetics practical training.
For Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Portsmouth, Suffolk and Williamsburg, compare commute time, weekly attendance, total costs and supervised practice. Availability is provider-specific; this site does not verify or guarantee an individual provider’s current openings.
