Avalon School of Cosmetology, formerly Earl's Academy of Beauty, began in Mesa, Arizona back in 1967. Today, after opening a second location, Avalon School of Cosmetology is helping more people find complete and affordable cosmetology training than ever before.

Avalon School of Cosmetology in Phoenix is equipped with three multi-use classrooms, a dispensary with a wide variety of products for training use, and a student lounge and personal lockers. The central clinic floor is large, bright and very well arranged for traffic and accessibility to the needed work area. Lighting throughout is fluorescent, helping to create a salon-like atmosphere that is conducive to appropriate skill training.

Avalon School of Cosmetology in Phoenix currently offers a complete Cosmetology training program that can prepare you to sit for the Arizona state cosmetology board licensing test.

Why are we different?

We have an exceptional staff dedicated to you. We are proud to have literally thousands of hours of combined experience, youth and innovation within our instructors. Students do not just learn the theories behind cosmetology, but actually perform traditional and contemporary styles for all types of hair.

Are your study tools professional?

We use only professional products for both training and client services. Through the years, we have developed a system of training that focuses on the industry, trends, state board requirements, but most importantly you.

Is financial aid available?

For almost all students who qualify for it, financial assistance is available in a variety of forms of federal education grants and loans. Because Avalon School of Cosmetology is a fully accredited school, we are able to assist students with understanding and applying for the funding needed. We are always willing to work out payment plans for those who do not wish to or are not eligible for federal funds.

How much individual attention can I expect from instructors?

We limit the size of sessions entering. Class sizes range from 8 to 15 students respectively. When students complete the freshman class and begin services on the clinic floor, several floor instructors are available for consultation during every stage of the service being performed.

Will I have a lot of homework?

That is entirely up to you. Cosmetology is not a field that you can read a book about and then go cut someone's hair. You have to live it. The key is attendance. If you are here and fully participate in the class, you will find that the majority of your work will be completed at school.
