Blades School Cosmetology Maryland Virginia

Blades School has been teaching cosmetology since 1986.  What does this mean to you?  It means that we know what we're doing.  In 2009, over 88% of our students passed the Maryland Cosmetology Board exams first time they tested.  If you decide to trust us with your future, we'll do our best to prepare you to pass the State Board Exam, too

Blades School of Hair Design is: a Pivot Point Member School, accredited by the National Accrediting Commission of Cosmetology, Arts and Sciences; approved by the Maryland Higher Education Commission approved for Veteran's Training; and is the very first Maryland school to be accepted as a Pivot Point School! We keep striving to get better and better.  Which really means that we keep striving to make your cosmetology education better and better.

It is our mission to prepare our students for the world of professional cosmetology. It is our responsibility to train students in accordance with the regulations of the State of Maryland, in skills and techniques of beautification. Our instructors hold themselves to the highest degree of professionalism and expect the same standard from their students.

The management and instructional staff of Blades have a strong belief in the capabilities and talents of our students. This tenet is demonstrated in the school’s basic philosophy of hands-on instruction. The student will be provided a complete professional educational experience in a relaxed salon setting, with personalized instruction being the preferred teaching method. The main emphasis of instruction will be to insure the student is provided and fully understands every aspect of cosmetology. The students are also encouraged to express their artistic freedom that is essential to a cosmetology career.
