OUR HISTORY
The soul of BBBS comes from our triumphant history.
Our Director & Owner, Lisa Brown, has been licensed in the Beauty Industry for 40 years. After 20+ years working for many brands including, but not limited to Aveda, Richard Joseph & Gene Juarez, she decided she was ready to open her own salon, Salon Lisa Brown in 2011 (now Lisa Brown SalonSpa). The following year, Mrs.Brown opened her school, Brown Beauty Barber School (BBBS) alongside her husband, Mr. Brown. The original location was at the Watermark in Bessemer, AL. She loved the tight-knit community of Bessemer and the endless opportunities, especially for education. Mrs. Brown wanted her program to focus on professionalism, texture education, and proficiency in barbering, shear cutting, and hair color no matter which program you enrolled in! In 2014, Mr. & Mrs. Brown purchased a property in Bessemer on 1st Avenue North, and changed their location from the Watermark. The day the business was opened, it was devastatingly closed as it was hit by the 2014 tornadoes. They arrived to find a severely damaged building and unusable equipment. Possessions can be replaced, but the immense compassion and strength of the staff and students at BBBS are what makes our school special! The owners stayed committed to repairing their facility over 6 months to be able to offer beauty education again.
Brown Beauty Barber School has since been accredited by NACCAS and approved to accept both Financial Aid and Veteran’s Affairs Education Benefits. When BBBS first started, Cosmetology enrollment was always the highest, yet, as the years have continued, Brown is now recognized as a Barber Styling & Instructor Training School, with a now almost equal to higher enrollment of Barbers & Instructors each class. Brown Beauty Barber School has proudly graduated over 250 students and reached Mrs. Brown’s goal of 20 classes in 2023!
