Practice the exact content State Board puts on your Rhode Island esthetics exam. Mapped to the official topic breakdown below — no guessing, no generic Milady-style filler.
Direct from the Rhode Island Board of Hairdressing and Barbering and the State Board candidate bulletin.
Your SGS dashboard tracks your score in each of these categories so you know exactly where to study.
The tools students use every night in the 30 days before their test.
Rhode Island uses your state board exam, which requires 75% or higher to pass. Practicing at least 10% above that on SGS mock exams is the sweet spot students who pass on the first try hit.
Rhode Island requires 600 training hours for esthetics, along with completing your state board exam (written + practical). Minimum age is 18.
Every SGS practice question is mapped to the same topic categories State Board uses: Scientific Concepts (Infection Control, Anatomy, Chemistry); Skin Care and Services (Facials, Treatments, Hair Removal). Your progress dashboard shows which categories you're strong in and which need work before test day.

Many Rhode Island candidates tend to focus heavily on the "fun" stuff – facials, extractions, new techniques. While practical skills are vital, a common pitfall is neglecting a deep dive into the Scientific Concepts, especially Infection Control, which falls under that dominant 55%. They might know *what* to do, but not *why* it's critical or the specific pathogens involved. Remember, the exam isn't just testing your ability to perform a service; it's testing your understanding of how to do it safely and effectively, backed by scientific knowledge. Don't just skim the infection control chapter; truly internalize it.
