피부미용사 (에스테티션) in New York

New York licenses estheticians through the Department of State as an Appearance Enhancement specialty, so — unlike barbering — esthetics DOES have a written exam. It is state-administered (scheduled through businessexpress.ny.gov), a multiple-choice written test (2.5 hours) plus a practical, graded pass/fail with results valid five years. New York is one of the most language-accessible states: the esthetics written exam can be scheduled in English plus 10 translations — Spanish, Chinese, Korean, Bengali, Haitian Creole, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Russian and Turkish — so a Chinese-, Korean- or Spanish-speaking candidate can sit the real written test in their language. (This esthetics list differs from the nail and cosmetology lists — notably it does not include Vietnamese.) You need a 600-hour approved esthetics course. Our multilingual practice questions are a study aid.

State rules and fees change often. This table shows only facts confirmed from an official board or vendor source on the date noted; anything unconfirmed is marked “to confirm.” Always verify current requirements with your state board or its testing vendor before you register. Our practice questions are a study aid and never imply your state offers the exam in a language it does not.
