Caring for Hands and Nails in Cold Weather
In winter, hands tell the truth. Cold air, frequent handwashing, and busy days can leave skin dry and uncomfortable, while nails may peel, chip, or split more easily than usual. It is one of the first places the season shows its impact.
Celebrating Our Graduates!
Help us celebrate our newest LeGrand graduates:
Hannah Bryant, Bailey Hegler, Kallie Catoe, Madison Chafin, Elizabeth Oliver, and Brinley Hair.
Each of these women showed up, did the work, and stayed the course through early mornings, late afternoons, state boards, and so many hours behind the chair. Today, they walk out our doors with licenses in reach and a skill set they can carry anywhere.
We’re proud of the way they’ve grown in confidence, professionalism, and care for the people in their chair.
The Heart of Cosmetology
Behind every good haircut, healthy scalp, or glowing complexion is a trained professional who truly knows their craft. Cosmetology is not just about beauty. It is about human connection, technical skill, and the confidence that comes from doing meaningful work well.
At LeGrand Institute of Cosmetology, our students learn far more than technique. They learn how to listen, how to build trust, and how to make people feel comfortable and understood. A great service does more than change how someone looks. It helps them walk out feeling like themselves again.
Choose Local. Choose LeGrand.
Small Business Saturday is about more than shopping. It’s about choosing the places that pour into your community all year long.
When you book a service at LeGrand Institute of Cosmetology, you support a small school that trains future professionals and offers affordable salon services right here in Camden, SC. Our students gain experience with every haircut, color, manicure, pedicure, and facial. You leave looking and feeling refreshed, and your dollars stay close to home.
