It’s Your First Day Studying with The National School of Aesthetics
Your first day studying with The National School of Aesthetics can be exciting and overwhelming. Relax! Here’s what you need to bring and what you should expect.
What to Wear on Your First Day
You should always wear your full uniform to school.
IIf you are unable to get a uniform for the first day, a plain black button-up shirt with plain black dress pants are suitable. See the image below for what a “plain black button-up shirt” looks like.
Since the supplier has a quick turn-around time on creating uniforms, we hope there is little to no delay in you getting your uniform.
What to Bring on Your First Day
Please bring:
- Your carrying case
- Pens
- Paper
- Your consumables kit
- Your first aid kit
- Your linen kit (to be inspected)
- Pencils and eraser
- Your makeup brushes

You will be directed to the Great Hall and asked to store your carrying case in a cubbyhole.
Please ensure you turn your cellphone to off or non-transmitting (flight) mode before putting it back into your back.
Your cell phone is not allowed in class as it can interfere with some of our equipment, which can cause injury or worse to a fellow ākonga / student or client.
What We Do on Your First Day
The first half hour deals with an orientation presentation and short lecture reviewing important information we covered in the interview presentation, which you should have watched before your interview. You can find the interview presentation on our Web site here: www.nasa.co.nz/enrol/interview-presentation/
You can also find a copy of the orientation presentation on our Web site here: www.nasa.co.nz/students/during-your-course/orientation-presentation/
The Education and Teaching Team will then dive further into orientation information surrounding classes and perhaps even your first lesson of your programme.
