My concern is that by requiring an additional 600 hours  for a Master Aesthetician license the state will be making it impossible  and too limiting for aestheticians to earn a living.  It will force many experienced and educated aestheticians to spend thousands of dollars only to do what they have already been doing.  I also feel that the state can not guarantee a good education.  I and many other aestheticians in this state have had to seek education in other states because there are simply few quality schools in Virginia.   The only one really benefiting from these changes are  the up and coming schools that will be making money off of our tuition.  I feel that requiring 600 hours for a basic aesthetician license is a step in the right direction but lets take it one step at a time.
