Entrepreneurial Opportunities
Reason #4 to Become a Cosmetologist: Entrepreneurial Opportunities
If you've ever dreamed of being your own boss, cosmetology might be your path forward.
Many beauty professionals go on to open their own salons, build freelance businesses, or create brands that reflect their unique style. It’s a career that blends creativity with independence—and it starts with a strong foundation.
At LeGrand Institute of Cosmetology, we don’t just teach the skills. We prepare our students to build something of their own.
In-Demand Profession
Reason #3 to Become a Cosmetologist: It’s an In-Demand Profession.
Beauty isn’t a trend...it’s a daily part of life. From everyday grooming to special occasions, people rely on skilled cosmetologists to help them feel confident and cared for.
That’s why this industry keeps growing. Cosmetologists are needed in salons, spas, bridal teams, photo shoots, film sets, and everywhere in between. A career in beauty isn’t just creative - it’s steady.
We prepare students for a career that’s both fulfilling and in demand.
Myth or Fact?
MYTH: You can repair split ends with products.
FACT: Once your hair is split, the only real solution is a trim.
Products may help smooth or seal the ends temporarily, but they can’t reverse the damage.
We teach future stylists to know the difference—and to care for hair with skill and honesty.
At LeGrand Institute of Cosmetology, we’re a small school with a big vision.

Every wrinkle tells a story. Every silver strand holds a memory.
On Wednesdays, we slow down a little and honor the ones who’ve walked before us. Our Senior Appreciation Day is a small way of saying thank you—for the wisdom, the warmth, and the grace they bring into our space.
We love pampering the ones who spent decades caring for others.
Come feel seen, cared for, and cherished every Wednesday.

Rinse Before the Pool
Thursday Tip: Rinse Before the Pool
Before diving into the fun, take a quick step that your hair will thank you for—rinse with clean water before swimming.
Why? Dry hair acts like a sponge. If it's already wet, it soaks up less chlorine (or salt), helping protect your strands from dryness, brittleness, and unwanted color fade.
A simple habit with big benefits—especially in summer.
