The Apprenticeship Advantage
b.LUXE Hair and Makeup Studio, owned by industry veteran Heather Cohen, is more than just a salon. It's a training ground for future beauty professionals. "I work closely with our apprentices to ensure they receive a complete education that builds off what they’ve learned from cosmetology school. We employ a director of cutting, Sandra Wilkey, and a director of color education, Andrea Rees, to further mentor our apprentices and junior stylists. Our staff is also incredibly supportive, and work as a team to bring the next generation through successfully," Heather explains.
“Early in my career, a well-known Boston salon owner took me under their wing and shared their talent and business knowledge. I received such well-rounded training. I love sharing what I learned.” The studio offers comprehensive apprenticeship programs in collaboration with the Massachusetts State Board of Cosmetology. These programs allow participants to gain real-world experience, refine their skills, and earn up to 400 hours towards their 1,000-hour licensure requirements while still in school.
The b.LUXE Apprenticeship Program caters to the education and career of future cosmetologists, providing three distinct paths to success.
