COSMETOLOGY PROGRAM
REal preparation for a rewarding beauty career
What you can expect
Capitol stands out from other schools in the country due to our exceptional commitment to maintaining high standards and expectations for both our staff and students. This dedication ensures top-quality education for our students. Numerous Omaha salon owners are graduates of our Capitol programs, attesting to the caliber of students produced by our institution. With a history dating back to 1923, we possess a deep understanding of effective hair school education methods.
we believe that the strength of our community is rooted in the quality of our instructors. We've carefully selected experienced educators to guide you on your journey. We prioritize your learning environment, and to ensure a close-knit and supportive community, we intentionally limit each class to 20 students.
In 2021, we expanded our campus to the Bel-Air Plaza, not only to offer a socially responsible learning environment but also to enhance your experience. As part of this expansion, the freshmen segment of our cosmetology program is housed in a beautifully redesigned learning space, where you'll spend your first 8 weeks mastering the essentials of cutting, coloring, styling, and balayage techniques.
Work With Real Clients
we understand that the heart of cosmetology education lies in the hands-on, practical experience. furthermore, We firmly believe that a key way to learn is by doing. That's why we dedicate over 80% of your senior training to hands-on practice with our valued client guests in our inviting clinic floor. While students have the opportunity to provide services to our loyal 'regulars,' clients who have been with Capitol for decades, we strongly encourage students to cultivate their own clientele during their time at school. We place a strong emphasis on nurturing your business-building skills while you are with us, ensuring a rewarding and client-focused educational experience.
