The best beauty school on the planet!! You can learn things about cosmetology that you didn’t know! Trust me most cosmetology schools do not give you this type of info or outlook of life and a career!! Proud Graduate!! Go register at BBBS.

This was not my first attempt at cosmetology school, but it was my best attempt and most successful, I love BBBS.

— Michelle L.

MAKE-UP GRADUATE

I was nervous about if the class would be worth the price with so many classes around these days. I left feeling like I underpaid to be honest. I did the early bird registration and got a huge discount of tuition. It was super affordable especially considering what I got out of it.

— Jaylen A.

This program was worth it! I had a blast, I wish I could take it again.

I did not know about Makeup Designory prior to taking this course. Their program is excellent and not to mention the quality of the kit. I was able to start my new job with my kit from class and am still using it, all my clients have rave reviews!!

— Shay

COSMETOLOGY GRADUATE

I learned more than just about hair. It was suprising to me because I expected to be on a mannequin head all day and they gave us much more than that. I absolutely loveddd my instructor team and I can tell they love their job as well. They made a huge impact in my life.
