Welcome to the
Beauty Academies
Why our academies?
Our academies are centrally located in the business districts of each town. Each one provides a high volume of clients in our low-cost student salons, in turn, producing well-practiced stylists.
We offer FIVE programs- Cosmetology, Teacher Training, Nail Technician, Esthetician, and Massage Therapy. Our Cosmetology and Massage Therapy classes start in January, April, June, September, and November. The Teacher Training, Nail Technician, and Esthetician classes are offered on an ongoing enrollment basis. Before graduation, all students are prepared to take the PA State Board of Licensing Examination. Upon completion of the course of study, students are prepped and ready to be gainfully employed in the industry.
