Results are listed alphabetically. There is no price ranking: prices in different currencies and bases (per day, per course, per year, per instalment) are not comparable. Courses for teens and children appear only when you choose a youth audience. Online programs are never counted as physically located in a state or city. Items marked Sponsored are paid placements; they never change recognition status, verification or order.

About beauty training and licensing in Australia

How beauty training is organised

Hairdressing, barbering and beauty therapy are taught through nationally coded vocational qualifications (SHB codes such as SHB30516 Certificate III in Barbering and SHB50121 Diploma of Beauty Therapy) delivered by public TAFE and university-TAFE providers and private registered training organisations. Public providers publish subsidised and full-fee place prices, and barbering and hairdressing are commonly entered as apprenticeships with an employer contract.
