Although there is science in everything related to skincare and Hair care, Cosmetology is way beyond hair styling and what makeup artists do.
Cosmetology is the field of understanding how cosmetic products interact with human Skin and hair and developing new methods that will help in making the human body look better and also its applicability to the skin in any way.
Cosmetologists are trained and licensed to perform cosmetic treatments on the hair, skin, and nails.
