Cosmetology Program

An Investment in Your Education

At Avalon Insitute, our student’s success is our top priority. Every step of the way is student focused, from the time you apply to your graduation. Individualized instruction from skilled educators is only a portion of what our comprehensive program offers to students.

Because of limited class sizes, you can expect more individualized time with instructors to get your questions answered. Plus, actual feedback while providing services supervised by licensed professionals.

Our facilities are designed to help you get a feel for what it’s actually like to work in the beauty industry, and career assistance to help you achieve your dreams of becoming a licensed professional.

The Curriculum

Unleash your creativity and learn to channel it through shears, clippers, and scissors! Our cosmetology program teaches the basic foundations for hair cutting, hair coloring, hair styling, hair extension application, makeup artistry, and manicuring techniques.

Not only can you expect to be thoroughly familiar with core beauty theory, but you will have the chance to completely master techniques under special guidance from professional instructors during their practical hours. We do this by letting students provide services to actual guests as part of our student salon.*

*All services provided by students under the supervision of licensed professionals.

If you’re someone who loves to learn in a hands-on environment, Avalon Insitute could be a good fit for you! See the types of looks you can create while pursuing your education in beauty.

Avalon Insitute also prepares students for the “real-life” side of the beauty industry by providing business and operations training to guide them to opportunities in salons or as independent entrepreneurs.

While our curriculum varies slightly per location, here is a general overview of the stages of learning you can expect to follow in our cosmetology program:
