What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Clean Your Dirty Face's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees (or their Operating Partner) and all staff members must satisfactorily complete the Training Program before opening their business. The Training Program includes Owner Training, Skin Boss Training, and Receptionist Training.
Specifically, the franchisee (or their Operating Partner) must attend the Owner Training program, which is conducted virtually and has no fee. The franchisee (or their Operating Partner) and all estheticians must attend the 3-day in-person Skin Boss Training program at Clean Your Dirty Face's corporate training center, which is currently located in Chicago, Illinois. The Skin Boss Training fee is currently $750 per person. At least one staff member must successfully complete the 2-day in-person Receptionist Training program at the corporate training center, with no fee charged.
If the franchisee (or their Operating Partner) or any trainees fail to satisfactorily complete the Training Program, Clean Your Dirty Face reserves the right to require additional training, for which the franchisee will be charged the then-current additional training fee. If the franchisee (or their Operating Partner), or any manager and/or assistant manager required by Clean Your Dirty Face, are unable to satisfactorily complete the additional required training, Clean Your Dirty Face reserves the right to terminate the Franchise Agreement. If attendees satisfactorily complete the Training Program and do not express feeling insufficiently trained, they will be deemed sufficiently trained to operate a Clean Your Dirty Face Facial Bar.
Clean Your Dirty Face may also require the Operating Partner and all estheticians to attend the Skin Boss Retraining program at least once every twelve months, with a current fee of $750 per person. Franchisees are responsible for ensuring all staff members are adequately trained before providing services and that all estheticians are duly licensed and certified by Clean Your Dirty Face.
