Definitions of cosmetology:

The word cosmetology is used here, as the word cosmetology encompasses a certified profession. The rule discussed here therefore covers all other studies or courses that are considered cosmetology but have not been certified in Iceland, according to the following list:

• 1. Makeup
• 2. Nail art, including the application of artificial nails
• 3. Eyelash application, eyelash extensions
• 4. Permanent eyebrow makeup

Please note that only tuition and course fees are eligible for reimbursement from the fund. Costs related to products, materials, books, and other educational supplies are not eligible for reimbursement.

Schools that teach cosmetology must meet the following requirements for the program they offer to be eligible for funding as a work-related program:

• Have a operating and teaching license and text stating that the licenses are available on their website and be able to present a certificate upon request.
• Have all invoices itemised, clearly showing costs for education and supplies.
• Meet the fund's requirements for courses, see here.
• Provide the student with a diploma/certificate of recognition at the end of their studies.
