Become an Esthetician
Have you ever daydreamed about starting a fulfilling career in a vibrant industry?
You can step into a professionally licensed esthetics career in as little as 5 months!
Elite Esthetics Institute
Located in downtown Martinsburg WV, EEI offers a unique hybrid learning program that is geared toward test competence and real-life preparedness with lots of hands-on practice.
In 2022 Chelsea McBee and Cecilia Perkins decided that it was time to bring quality esthetics education to the Panhandle.
After much renovation and preparation, we were able to open our doors to the first class of estheticians in March of 2023.
Elite Esthetics Institute is a one of a kind esthetics education. We have taken the required state curriculum and our own knowledge to create our unique program. Cecilia and Chelsea are both business owners who continue to practice esthetics. Chelsea is a member of the West Virginia Board of Barbers and Cosmetologists. After graduating esthetics school, they learned the ins and outs by trial and error. This is why they wanted to create an esthetics program that actually teaches estheticians not only modern services within the scope but also how to be successful after graduating. As the beauty industry is continuously advancing, we are constantly tailoring our program to give our estheticians the most elite education with ongoing mentoring.
What can you expect?
“I was a student here for Esthetics, and it was the best decision I’ve made! Both of the educators were great! They went above, and beyond for our education. We did a lot of hands-on, and had a lot of preparation for our theory, and practical exams! I recommend this school if you are interested in becoming an Esthetician or a wax specialist, you will not be disappointed!”
