Electrolysis Course Overview
(Permanent Hair Removal also known as Epilation)
For therapists wishing to become qualified to offer a traditional method of permanent hair reduction; epilation or electrolysis.
Upon successful completion of this course, you will:
- Be qualified to offer a safe and effective method of permanent reduction of unwanted hair.
- Know how to use diathermy, galvanic and blend methods.
- Be able to increase your revenue streams by progressing onto Advanced Cosmetic Procedures.
Epilation is the permanent reduction of superfluous (unwanted) hair; it is a highly profitable and popular treatment. You will receive training with the use of Diathermy, Galvanic and Blend techniques; therefore you will be able to adapt your working techniques to suit the client’s needs.
The epilation client is one of the most regular attendants in the salon, therefore providing the electrologist with a steady remuneration throughout the year. Although laser hair removal has become increasing popular over the last ten years, there is still a high demand for electrolysis, as clients with lighter hairs or reactive skins cannot be successfully treated with laser.
We offer a comprehensive training course over two days in which you will learn how to successfully epilate hair from the following areas: upper lip, chin, eyebrows, underarm, bikini, neck, chest/breast.
Earning Potential
Most advanced Epilation systems use a combination of frequencies to produce maximum destruction, with minimum skin reaction.
Pricing usually starts at £30 for 15 minutes treatment time.
