We wanted to take a moment to thank you for all that you bring to our school, and our students. Without each of you giving your passion and support to students, we would simply not be here to witness their achievements.

Color theory meets creativity at International Institute of Cosmetology in Connecticut! Miss Corrah led an inspiring hands-on color wheel project where students explored the power of color by creating mood words that uplift and motivate. Projects like this help future beauty professionals connect emotion, design, and color in meaningful ways—building both technical skills and confidence in the salon and beyond.
