Cosmetology College

Choosing a cosmetology college

In the US today, the cosmetology industry is almost overrun with colleges and schools that cater strictly to those individuals who wish to have a career in that profession. There are more career opportunities in the field than ever before and the choice of the right cosmetology college can be a difficult one. There are several steps you can take so that you have a better chance of finding one that caters to your specific needs so you can make a well-informed decision in the process.

You want to make two lists initially. First, after carefully sifting through numerous choices off the internet or in your phone book, you want to list the ones that appeal to you and that you feel are worth investigating. Pick 5 or 6 of the best ones and then make a list of the questions to ask each one when you make personal contact with them. You also want to make sure that everyone of these is accredited as well as being certified and recognized by the NACCAS (National Accrediting Commission of Cosmetology Arts).

Why choose the LuRoss Academy

The LuRoss Academy cosmetology college has been educating and training students for all types of careers in the cosmetology industry since 1954 when we first opened our doors in Ventura, CA. Since that point in time, we have always taken a personal interest in our students and their progress throughout the entire curriculum so that their needs are always attended to. Our goal is for every student to build their foundation in the industry, pass the California State Board Exam, and have a rewarding and successful career.

One of the primary benefits of attending the LuRoss Academy is that your education here includes not only hours of class time, but hours of training on client’s hair rather than a dummy or mannequin. This includes training in either our training clinic or our full service day spa. Additionally, your curriculum will include taking a number of different classes in the areas of cosmetology, esthetics, make-up, and manicuring depending on the career you are planning on pursuing.

At the LuRoss Academy, our philosophy has always been stressing the importance of hands-on training which is one of key reasons that our experienced instructors and trainers will step in to assist you with any difficulties you may encounter. Additionally, we have set the industry standard where our State Board classes are concerned. But our different curriculum’s go far beyond just teaching you to pass the State Board exams.
