Cosmetologists

Unions and Associations

Cosmetologists do not typically belong to unions. The Professional Beauty Association, an international trade group, offers opportunities for networking and continuing education. The Association of Cosmetology Salon Professionals also offers continuing education and networking events, as well as an insurance program for members. The National Accrediting Commission of Career Arts & Sciences accredits cosmetology programs. The American Association of Cosmetology Schools is a membership organization for cosmetology, skin, nail, barbering, and massage schools.
