 An
Official Paul Mitchell Partner School
Because The Lab is an official Paul Mitchell
Partner School, we are able to provide our
Future Professionals with a foundation of
education that is built upon the Paul Mitchell
hair care and professional development system.
This system was developed with over twenty
years of product and beauty school research
to back it up. We are able to take the best
practices from corporate product research
and development along with the Paul Mitchell
schools now operating across the country,
and give our Future Professionals one of
the best education experiences available!

The Lab is located in the heart of central
New Jersey, just minutes outside Princeton
and midway between Philadelphia and New
