Esthetician Schools Near Harligen / Weslaco / Brownsville/ McAllen, TX

If you want to become an esthetician in Texas, consider Harlingen, Weslaco, Brownsville, or McAllen as places to begin your career. In 2016, Brownsville was named the 13^th best city in the United States in terms of skin care and health. However, there is still a need for good estheticians—the area has a climate that's tough on the skin and relatively few skin care professionals. The other cities have similar climate challenges. This is where estheticians come in: They mitigate the effects of weather on people's skin.

As of 2019, estheticians in McAllen made a mean salary of $35,350 per year ($16.99 per hour); Weslaco is in the same county but doesn't publish separate data.

Texas expects esthetician jobs to grow by 20% between 2016 and 2026, which is nearly double the national expectation.
