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.
Wyoming uses the Prov/NIC 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.
Wyoming requires 1600 training hours for cosmetology, along with completing the Prov/NIC exam (written + practical). Minimum age is 16.
Every SGS practice question is mapped to the same topic categories Prov/NIC uses: Scientific Concepts (Infection Control, Safety, Chemistry); Hair Care and Services (Cutting, Styling, Chemical); Skin Care; Nail Care and Services. Your progress dashboard shows which categories you're strong in and which need work before test day.
Yes. SGS works in any mobile browser — no app install required. Flashcards, practice tests, and The Final Look exam all work on iPhone, Android, and tablet. Save your seat in The Lounge to sync progress across devices.
A big one I see is underestimating the "Chemical" part of Hair Care and Services. Everyone practices their cuts, but sometimes candidates just skim over chemical services like perms, relaxers, and color. Because this falls under the largest category (40%), messing up here can really hurt your score. You need to know not just the *steps* for these services, but also client consultation, strand tests, patch tests, proper product mixing, processing times, and safety precautions specific to each chemical. My advice? Treat every chemical service as if you're doing it on a real client – safety first, every time.
