Esthetician Schools near San Diego, CA

San Diego could be a great place to begin a California career as an esthetician. In a study of 150 major metros, the city ranked 106th in skin health and care, thanks in large part to the chances of skin cancer and the level of pollution. As estheticians not only cleanse and rejuvenate the skin but also help clients recognize warning signs for skin damage and disease, they need professionals like you. Additionally, as a major tourist town, you may get to meet people from all over the country—and the world—who come not just for the sun, but relaxation and spa treatments. As of 2019, estheticians in San Diego earned a mean salary of $32,220 per year ($15.97 per hour). The state anticipates esthetics jobs to grow by 17% between 2016 and 2026.
