Alumni Testimonials

“At the age of 35 I made the decision to go back to school to pursue a career in esthetics. My husband thought I had lost my mind; with already owning a business, having two little boys at home and another on the way, plus an MBA already under my belt. He wasn’t quite sure where I was going with all of it. It was a passion I have always had and I knew if I was going to do it, there was no doubt that the Catherine Hinds Institute would be my number one choice. Since graduating, I have landed sales jobs within the industry, become a licensed esthetician performing advanced treatments at a medspa, and have had paid promotional influencer opportunities with some of the industry’s most highly regarded brand names. I have CHI to thank for the opportunity to recreate, educate, and manifest a new career for this chapter of my life.”

Alumni Testimonials

"Catherine Hinds Institute gave me the confidence and motivation I couldn't get anywhere else. As a bilingual immigrant from Brazil, the Catherine Hinds Institute was the place where I recognized my uniqueness and individuality. An G. Hinds always encouraged me to never give up. Shortly after graduating in 2001, I began working as a licensed esthetician and continued to do so for 20 years. In 2022, I became a spa owner and have grown my own team of employees. I will forever be grateful for how the Catherine Hinds Institute changed my future for the better."

Alumni Testimonials

"I chose the Catherine Hinds Institute because I wanted to learn from a family-run business with generations of women entrepreneurs. At the Institute, both my instructors and classmates helped me learn and grow in my journey to becoming a skin care professional. Upon graduating, Catherine Hinds Institute Career Services helped me land my first job. After working in a spa for a year, I discovered my love for lashing! I made the decision to rent a room at a salon and become my own boss. I am so thankful that the Catherine Hinds Institute led me to my dream job."
