we are dedicated to excellence in education.

Our objective is to create a well rounded
professional in the field of cosmetology.
Carson City Beauty Academy will teach you
the tools you need to pass your Nevada State
Board written and practical exam. Our students
leave our academy with the skills and ability
to be successful in the field of Cosmetology.
Education
Our education begins in the Freshman room
where the students have individual as well
as group instruction. This classroom is
separate from our clinic floor to provide
an atmosphere of focused learning for the
beginning student. During the Freshman hours
students receive both demonstration and
lecture and are given plenty of opportunity
to practice. Students have time for questions
and one-on-one instruction.
Students enrolled in any of the Academy's
Cosmetology programs will learn more than
the basics. Our instructors educate students
on advanced techniques in all fields of
Cosmetology. Advanced education in Hair,
Skin, and Nails are incorporated everyday
in our active clinic floor.
 Once
eligible to work on the public under instructor
supervision, our students have a great opportunity
to work with clientele daily. Our Academy
has a reputation in the community as the
place to go for great service and professional
work. This provides the student maximum
opportunity to do work on live clients,
rather than only on doll heads, hands etc.
We also focus on the importance of State
Board curriculum. Our staff is current on
policy set by the Nevada State Board of
Cosmetology and the Testing Center. Our
pass rate at the State Board of Cosmetology
written and practical exams for the year
2004-2005 was 97%. We know that this is
the first step to being successful in the
working world.
We also network with representatives of
current lines of product for example Goldwell,
KMS, OPI, and VIA in order to bring cutting
edge education to our students.
