Why Choose La’ James International College?
If you’re someone who thrives with more one-on-one time with instructors and is career-focused, La’ James International College could be the right cosmetology school for you. We limit class sizes, so you can have a more personal, hands-on training with our experienced instructors. Additionally, we offer a multiple licensure plan that will save you time and tuition to obtain multiple licensures as well as give you the option to receive an A.A.S degree in Health and Beauty Management.
See What Our Students Have To Say
The opportunities are endless here at LJIC and the tools for success are given to you. You just have to apply them! I love Wednesday and Thursday mornings We [student & staff] meet to discuss the week ahead and build together as a team.
Recomendaría a todos que vinieran a LJIC porque pueden conocer a mucha gente nueva y esta área puede llevarlos a cualquier parte. Alexis L.
I chose LJIC because it gave me more options to learn different areas rather than just hair only. You learn nails, the spa side of Cosmetology, and everything else.
