Practice with 690 original questions built on the current NIC outlines. Take timed 110-question exams, drill your weak spots, and walk into state boards ready.
Pass your cosmetology or esthetics state board written exam on the first try.
Slay the Board gives you original practice questions, full-length timed exams, and a readiness score built on the current NIC theory exam outlines: cosmetology (2022) and esthetics (2025). You'll know when you're ready before you book your test.
PRACTICE THAT MATCHES THE REAL TEST
• 690 original questions, each with a plain-English explanation and its source
• Timed practice exams in the real format: 110 questions in 90 minutes. Most states require 75% to pass.
• Exams weighted like the current outlines. Cosmetology: Scientific Concepts 35%, Hair Care 45%, Skin Care 10%, Nail Care 10%. Esthetics: Scientific Concepts 55%, Skin Care 45%.
• Switch between cosmetology and esthetics anytime. Progress is saved for both.
STUDY SMARTER
• A short diagnostic finds your weak areas on day one
• Study by topic, from infection control and chemistry to hair color, facials, waxing and nails
• Weak-spot drills build sessions from your mistakes
• Review every question you missed or bookmarked
• Set your test date and keep a daily study streak
KNOW WHEN YOU'RE READY
• An overall readiness score plus your accuracy in every exam section
• Practice exam history so you can watch your scores climb
QUESTIONS YOU CAN CHECK
Every explanation names its source, such as OSHA, EPA, FDA or CDC guidance or the outline topic it covers. Every question has a "Report a problem" link.
No account and no ads. Your progress stays on your device.
CHECK YOUR STATE
Most states use the NIC theory exams. California, Florida, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Texas give their own written exams and don't use the NIC theory exam, so check your state board's candidate bulletin first.
