Dreaming of a career in skincare and beauty but need a schedule that works around your life? The Salon Professional Academy (TSPA) Harrisonburg is making it easier to pursue your esthetics career with our new part-time hybrid Esthetics program!
Designed for busy adults, parents, career changers, and anyone who wants to build a career in the beauty industry without committing to a traditional full-time schedule, our hybrid program combines online learning with hands-on training in the academy.
Learn Esthetics Without Putting Your Life on Hold
We know that going back to school can feel overwhelming when you already have work, family, and other responsibilities. That’s why TSPA Harrisonburg created a part-time schedule that gives students the flexibility to complete a portion of their education online while still receiving the hands-on experience that is essential to becoming a successful esthetician.
Students attend Monday through Thursday from 5:00–9:00 PM for their in-person training, along with 7.5 hours of online coursework each week.
That means you can work toward your esthetics license while maintaining your daytime schedule.
Your Weekly Schedule

The hybrid format gives you the best of both worlds: flexibility when you need it and hands-on education when it matters most.
What Will You Learn?
Esthetics is about much more than skincare. At TSPA Harrisonburg, students build the knowledge, technical skills, and professional confidence needed to begin their careers in the beauty and wellness industry.
Throughout the program, students learn about areas such as:
- Skincare and facial treatments
- Skin analysis
- Hair removal
- Makeup
- Professional skincare products
- Sanitation and safety
- Client consultation
- Product knowledge
- Business and professional skills
- And more
Students also gain valuable hands-on experience working with real clients in a professional salon and spa environment.
Why Choose a Hybrid Esthetics Program?
Traditional school schedules don’t work for everyone. Maybe you already have a full-time job. Maybe you’re a parent. Maybe you’re ready for a career change but can’t spend your entire week in a classroom.
A hybrid program can give you the flexibility to move toward your new career while still keeping your existing commitments.
You don’t have to wait for the “perfect” time to change your life.
You just need a schedule that works for you.
Train in a Professional Beauty Environment
At TSPA Harrisonburg, students aren’t simply learning from a textbook. They’re preparing for what it’s actually like to work in the beauty industry.
You’ll have opportunities to develop your skills, interact with clients, practice professional communication, and gain confidence in a real salon and spa setting.
And because TSPA is part of a professional beauty environment, you’ll be surrounded by other future beauty professionals who are working toward their own careers in cosmetology, nails, and esthetics.
