The purpose of this research is to provide not only the preliminary data related to Korean beauty
school education but also the reference materials to find the desirable direction of progressing in the
curriculums of the country's beauty high schools. Based on the current scope of our beauty designer
training and education system enforced by the 7th Educational Curriculum Revision in 2007 and
Public health Law, this study investigated the educational conditions of 47 domestic beauty high
schools by region and by type and the available beauty courses of 34 schools. The result of the research
shows that, as for region, the capital area and Busan & Kyungsangnam-do area have more
beauty high schools than other areas and that, as for type, vocational high schools take the most
portion. The beauty course distribution chart indicates that hair design section is ranked 1st in the
number of available courses, skin care section ranked 2nd, makeup section ranked 3rd and public
health section ranked 4th, showing that the current curriculums of domestic beauty high schools are
