About this app

Pass your state board the first time — one app for all four licenses. 580+ practice questions with clear explanations, plus timed mocks: esthetician exam, cosmetology state board, barber exam and nail tech exam prep in a single app.

Most prep covers each discipline separately. This one covers all four.

✦ ALL FOUR LICENSES, ONE APP
• Esthetics — skin care, facials, hair removal and makeup
• Cosmetology — cutting, color, chemical texture and styling
• Barbering — cuts, fades, shaves and facial hair
• Nail Technology — manicure, pedicure and enhancements
• Infection Control & Safety — the heaviest-weighted domain on every exam
• Anatomy & Physiology — skin, hair, nails, bones, muscles and circulation
Nothing is a "coming soon" placeholder. All six decks are in the app today.

✦ TIMED MOCKS IN THE REAL FORMAT
Each mock mirrors the NIC written format for your license: 110 questions in 90 minutes, graded instantly with full answer review. Sit an esthetician exam simulation, a cosmetology state board mock, a barber exam or a nail tech exam as often as you like. Unseen questions come first, so a state board practice test never repeats itself.

✦ MASTER INFECTION CONTROL FIRST
Sanitation, disinfection and sterilization carry more weight than any other domain on all four exams. Bloodborne pathogens, EPA-registered disinfectants, contact time, single-use versus multiuse implements, and the salon safety rules an inspector actually checks.

✦ SMART REVIEW REMEMBERS YOUR MISSES
A five-box spaced-repetition system brings each question back right before you would forget it. Anything you miss jumps the queue with its explanation attached, so a weak topic gets more attention automatically.

✦ KNOW WHEN YOU ARE READY
Set your exam date and the home screen shows a countdown next to your best mock score. Readiness blends deck mastery with your best timed result, so it climbs only when you have earned it.

✦ WHO IT IS FOR
Beauty and barber school students, career changers, and licensed pros testing in a second discipline. Licensing is state by state — candidates study here in Texas, California, Florida, New York, Georgia, Illinois, Ohio, Arizona, North Carolina and New Jersey.

✦ OFFLINE, PRIVATE, NO ACCOUNT, NO ADS
Free to download, no sign-up, no email address. The whole app works with no signal, so you can study between clients, on the bus, or in the break room. Your progress stays on your phone and never leaves it. The interface and all questions are in English.
