Renewing Your Cosmetology License

North Carolina cosmetologists must renew their licenses every three years, and part of that renewal process is the requirement of 24 hours of continuing education (8 hours per year). Estheticians, manicurists (nail techs), natural hair specialists and apprentices must renew their licenses every year and also must complete 8 hours of continuing education each year.
