      I liked the approach to training, the professional beautician course is built in such a way that it gradually and step by step immerses one in the basics of cosmetology and gradually this knowledge is given in more depth. Therefore, there was no mess in my head, knowledge was formed thanks to this building of the course brick by brick.
