Attending beauty therapy college is a popular study path in South Africa and beyond, offering aspiring beauty therapists the chance to develop their technical skills and embark on a wide range of career opportunities.

- 2nd year: Body Therapy: The second-year course builds on the first year, enhancing student knowledge and experience of a wide range of body therapies such as body alignment, Indian head massage, advanced electrotherapy, and nutrition.
- 3rd year: Spa Therapy: The third and final year course offering is suited to students who want to take their beauty therapy knowledge to even greater heights and excel in medical or spa environments. This year covers a plethora of subjects, including speciality massage, permanent make-up, spa therapies like wraps and exfoliation, as well as 200 practical hours in a professional spa, salon, physiotherapist office, or gym.
