Ten years ago…
Atelier Academy was born from a simple but powerful vision: to create a beauty education experience that felt different-more personal, more hands-on, more heart-centered.
Back then, we were a small team with big dreams. We wanted to provide students not just with the technical skills to succeed, but with the confidence, creativity, and community to truly thrive in the beauty industry.
Since then, so much has changed-and so much has stayed beautifully the same.

Over the past decade…
We’ve had the incredible privilege of guiding hundreds of students through their journeys-watching them blossom from eager beginners to confident, skilled professionals. Many now lead in salons, run their own businesses, and a few have even returned to Atelier to give back as educators and mentors. That’s the kind of full-circle growth we live for.
Along the way, we’ve:
- Grown from a boutique program to a respected name in beauty education
- Expanded our curriculum to stay ahead of trends and industry demands
- Built deep partnerships with local salons and beauty leaders
- Continued to cultivate a learning environment rooted in integrity, inclusivity, and real-world readiness

But more than anything, we’ve remained committed to putting people first.
Whether it’s through our student salon, our alumni connections, or our educator education, everything we do centers on our belief that beauty can be a powerful force for transformation-and education is where it begins.
