California Cosmetologist License & PSI Theory Exam Preparation Application Exam Information
About the guide

A task-first California cosmetology license and exam workflow.

The site organizes Board requirements, PSI topics, original practice, saved progress, and first-work preparation.

Editorial method

Licensing statements are based on current California Board forms, requirements, FAQs, regulations, and 2026 examination updates. Dynamic details link to live official pages.

Practice method

Questions are original and mapped to published topic areas. The full simulator uses 100 scored practice items plus 10 hidden pilot items and reports a raw practice score, not an official PSI result.

Update method

When a form, fee, outline, or rule changes, the affected page, structured data, source directory, and sitemap date should be revised together.
