Gina's College of Advanced Aesthetics is a private vocational school that was established in 1979. We are registered with the Ministry of Education and Training. Gina's exclusive Italian teaching methods are the result of many years' experience. The curriculum is regularly revised and updated to reflect the standards required by the industry. The school provides modern facilities in three locations: Waterloo, Mississauga, and Ottawa.
Because Gina's is a vocational school, half the student's time is spent gaining hands-on experience under the instructor's supervision. This enables our graduates to enter the aesthetics field with the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to be successful. Our students have gone on to very successful careers in salons and spas, and with plastic surgeons and dermatologists across Canada, the United States, and Great Britain.
We offer one of the most advanced programs in the industry. We teach all facets of aesthetics, including skin care and specialty facials, European facial massage, manicures, pedicures, waxing, make-up artistry, electrolysis and laser. Additionally, we prepare the student to perform advanced aesthetic services for the face and body, including face and body peels, aromatherapy, reflexology, spa body treatments, muscle toning (EMS), and relaxation treatments.
Whether you dream of owning or managing your own spa or beauty clinic, becoming a cosmetic sales representative, or wish to work full or part time, you will be on your way to a successful and rewarding career with a diploma from Gina's College of Advanced Aesthetics.
