It depends on what school you want to go to. What kind of cosmetologist can get a REAL VALID license w/o attending any school? A fake 1? You also have to take a state test as well. This was a few years ago. I paid monthly. If she wants to learn acrylic decor, etc- she can do that w/a certified cos. I got Halfway with my cosmetology, quit and then became certified in the medical field.
