The WHS Human Services program provides students with a variety of choices. In the Cosmetology Program, students will have the opportunity to earn a state license as a Cosmetologist. Students are required to clock their hours of training according to the Texas Department of Licenses and Regulations state board. Students must register with the state board, purchase a lab kit, lab coat, and pay to take the state exam.
