STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
The Cosmetology and Spa Academy is an exceptional school to build a strong foundation for your career in the beauty industry. They offer programs in cosmetology, esthetics, barbering, and instructor training, all with flexible scheduling to suit your needs. I attended cosmetology school there in 2007 and loved it so much that I returned to earn my teacher’s license. The supportive staff and the opportunity to work hands-on with students made such an impact on me that I stayed for over 10 years! If you’re considering a career in beauty, I can’t recommend the Cosmetology and Spa Academy enough—it’s where my journey began!
