Fayetteville Technical Community College students give back to the community today while preparing for the careers of tomorrow.
Therapeutic Massage Program
FTCC’s Therapeutic Massage program offers 660 hours of comprehensive training designed to prepare students for successful careers in salons, spas, and healthcare settings. The program provides in-depth instruction in anatomy, physiology, and clinical massage techniques, equipping students with the skills and knowledge required for licensure as massage therapists in North Carolina. As part of their hands-on training, students provide massage services to the community through the FTCC massage clinic. The massage clinic operates on Mondays from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and Wednesdays from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Massage services are affordably priced, with updated rates of $20 for FTCC students, staff, and faculty, and $25 for the public. To schedule or modify a massage appointment, please call 910-678-0148.
Cosmetology Programs
FTCC offers an array of academic programs and low-cost services under the Cosmetology umbrella. All Cosmetology students – including those in our bilingual English/Spanish program – need to gain hands-on practice to hone their skills. We offer a variety of hair, nail, and skin care services to the public in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Appointments are highly recommended and can be made by calling 910-678-0160. Pricing varies by service, and all services are performed by students under the supervision of licensed instructors. Current FTCC employees and students, as well as senior adults, receive an additional discount. The FTCC Cosmetology Services Education Center is located at 2713 Fort Bragg Road.
Barbering
FTCC's Barbering program includes a minimum of 1528 hours of training, which qualifies students to take licensure exams through the NC Board of Barber & Electrolysis Examiners. The program lasts about one calendar year, during which students learn to market themselves through social media and engage with practicing barbers in the local community. Low-cost, cash-only barbering services are available to the public on a walk-in basis Monday through Thursday, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and on Fridays from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. in room 150 of the FTCC Continuing Education Center, 220 Hull Road. Call 910-678-0148 for more information.
Dental
To enhance the educational process of students, FTCC provides dental hygiene services to the public at the FTCC Dental Hygiene Clinic. Due to the educational setting, protocols may be unique from a private dental practice. Each appointment lasts a full 3 hours and includes bitewing X-rays, medical history screening, blood pressure screening, head and neck cancer screening, and prophylaxis scaling.
Treatment Costs for Dental Prophylaxis are $5 per scheduled appointment. Dental Sealants are $5 per tooth (or $20 maximum fee), panoramic radiographs are $10, and full mouth radiographs are $10.
Appointments for the Fall are available Tuesdays and Thursdays, 8:30 a.m. and 1 p.m., and in the Spring, daily at 8:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Summer appointments are available Tuesdays and Thursdays, 8:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Call 910-678-8254 to schedule a dental appointment.
