I got my license in Washington State a couple of months ago, all thanks to you. Now I’m not afraid to work, and I’m already working.
I had almost given up on getting a license in Colorado, but the team helped, and I didn’t even have to take the exam.
So glad I got my license with no exam and so quickly. For a long time I couldn’t find anyone to help.
I just got an email saying my license was approved! Now I’m planning to open a nail studio in Miami.

Frequently askedquestions
Will diplomas and experience from outside the USA count?
Yes, as a rule, if the paperwork is done right. That’s how most of our clients do it: their experience and documents come from their home country, before the move. We verify your qualifications and bring your documents in line with the board’s requirements.
Can I get a U.S. beauty license with no exam?
In most cases the exam is required, but there are exceptions: with significant work experience and supporting documents, some states issue a license with no exam. At the consultation we’ll review your case and your state’s requirements.
How fast will I get my license?
Usually 1–3 months, depending on the state and how fast the department works. The average time from filing a complete application to approval is 14 days.
Can I work without a license?
No, it’s illegal. Fines for working without a license start at $500 and go up to $5,000 for each violation found.
My certificates don’t list training hours. What should I do?
Missing hours make the process harder, but not impossible. At the consultation we’ll review your documents and find the best solution.
Can I get a license without a U.S. passport or Green Card?
Yes, if you have another legal status in the USA. Almost every state will require an SSN or ITIN.
Are your services right for beginners with no experience?
We are not a school and don’t provide training: we license beauty pros with experience or training documents. If you’re just starting out, at the consultation we’ll tell you which program your state requires, and we’ll handle your license once you complete it.
Can I apply while I’m outside the USA?
Yes, you can apply remotely. We guide you through the whole process online.
What counts as proof of training or work experience?
Diplomas, certificates, school transcripts, employment contracts, portfolios, references, tax documents.
Do you offer installments or discounts?
Yes, we offer group discounts and installment plans. Terms are discussed individually.
