Premier Education

Our professional educators offer comprehensive hands-on training, including ten signature haircuts and inspiration from popular period dramas like Boardwalk Empire and Mad Men. Your studies begin with an iPad for access to The Lab, our social learning platform, and the purchase of a student kit, which includes carefully selected tools to elevate your craftsmanship. Each student begins training with a mannequin, then transitions to serving clients in our on-site clinic. As your skills develop and your confidence grows, you’ll even have the opportunity to enter challenging national competitions that showcase your talents.

Our own Bellus industry professionals guide students in designing their unique portfolio/resume while learning how to build a sustainable career as a booth renter, independent contractor, employee, or employer. Financial aid is available for those eligible, and Career Services helps graduates with interview skills, state board preparation, and finding jobs.
