These careers will take you as far as you want to go. If you are ambitious, you can do anything you set your mind to!

Let Your Creativity Shine

As a student, you’ll be able to let your creativity shine! You can find new ways to express yourself by making others look and feel their best. You can cut hair in new ways, paint a fun design on nails, and get creative when applying makeup. You’re the artist and your clients are the canvas. When your life revolves around beauty, your life can never be dull.

Learn Important Skills

Not only do you learn skills related to beauty, but you can also learn important life skills along the way! We believe in not only teaching our students skills related to their program, but skills that they can carry on throughout. While you’re in beauty school you’ll have a chance to learn the following:

• Time management
• Communication
• Business skills
• Social media
• Customer service
• Problem solving
• Attention to detail
• Management skills
• Ownership information
• HR skills
• And more!

Our mission is to equip every individual with not only the technical skills they’ll need in their chosen career, but also with the business skills needed. We have found that most of our graduates want to own their own salon/barbershop after they graduate. We believe that if our students know these skills, they’ll be more successful as they pursue their goals. If our students are equipped with the knowledge and skills to be successful, they will make less catastrophic mistakes than can cost them money and their business.

Beauty and Wellness School Is Shorter Than Traditional School

When thinking about going back to school, most people often assume it will be another 4 years. At International Academy, you can graduate in as little as 2.5 months – depending on the program you choose. We have both full-time and part-time schedules so you can take it at your own pace. This gives you a chance to get into the workforce faster, making an income and building your career.

You’ll Work With Amazing People

If you love beauty, then you’ll love being surrounded by other individuals who also share the same passion! Our instructors want nothing but the best for their students and will help you grow in your passion. Many students become close friends with other members of their class and it can create long lasting friendships. It’s not hard making friends when everyone has so much in common!

You’ll Make A Difference In Someone’s Life

The beauty industry is a highly rewarding profession. When a client sits down in your chair, you become a friend. You’ll be able to put a smile on their face by providing them with a whole new look and you’ll be someone they can confide in! Nothing is better than providing someone with the confidence a new look gives.
