About Our Fort Dodge Beauty School

The Fort Dodge campus is home to our Home Office. It is the first location our owner, Mrs. Becher, purchased over 50 years ago and is the heart of La’ James International College.

Our Fort Dodge beauty school can be the perfect place to start your beauty education. We believe that hands-on education is key to your success, and that is why we designed our student salon/spa clinics to emulate a true professional salon environment.

Our clinics have individual treatment rooms and stations, hydrotherapy tubs, and a sauna. Along with a beautiful retail center with chandelier lighting and multiple product lines available for purchase, our Fort Dodge beauty school feels like a true salon/spa environment.

The campus is located in the middle of Fort Dodge and is perfect for out-of-state students or students looking for a more traditional college experience. Our Fort Dodge campus is our only campus with apartments next door, Xanadu Courtyard Apartments. For more information about these apartments, contact us!

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.

Elegí LJIC porque me daba más opciones para aprender sobre diferentes áreas en lugar de sólo el cabello. Aprendes uñas, el "lado Spa" de la cosmetología y todo lo demás.   Betty L.
