Cosmetology is the art and science of implementing cosmetic treatments to people's hair, skin, and nails. A cosmetologist is an expert in applying cosmetic procedures, therapies, and treatments. 

To qualify for cosmetology licensure in Ohio, you must attend a licensed school and complete the state of Ohio's minimum required training hours, and then take the state's cosmetology board exams. To get into cosmetology school, a High School Diploma, GED, or Home-School Transcript is required.
