Empire Beauty Schools
Empire Beauty Schools, founded in 1948, is one of the largest cosmetology schools in the United States. The school is headquartered in Pottsville, Pennsylvania and is one of the city’s leading local employers.
Empire Education Group annually hosts the largest hair and nail competition in the U.S. Empire’s National Competition and Hair Show brings competitors from the school’s over 100 campuses, together for the two-day event. Competitors participate in one-hour long events such as Long Hair Evening Design, Ladies Trend Cut and Style with Color and Nail Art Display. Top winners earn educational trips to shadow and learn from industry professionals around the globe.
Empire Beauty Schools opened the company’s 100th campus in Springfield, Pennsylvania, in 2010. The school was unveiled during Empire Education Group’s 100 Days of Empire event.
The newest eco-friendly schools were opened in West Palm Beach, Florida, Pineville, North Carolina, and Paramus, New Jersey. The schools follow on the heels of the Lauderhill, Florida, beauty school which was honored with the Green Conscious Salon Certification award from the Florida Association of Beauty Professionals. All of the cosmetology schools incorporated eco-conscious elements such as energy and water saving features.
