Each school or licensed instructor will require each student to obtain 250 total hours of training before the student performs clinical services on a client. Of these 250 hours (theory and mannequin styling) 15 hours will be on skin care, 10 hours on nail care, and the final 25 hours will be on live models. For the purpose of this rule, one (1) credit hour equals 1 clock hours for the first 250 hours of training.
