The good news is that just about anyone can get into a cosmetology school.
Here’s the scoop on cosmetology school requirements what you need to do to get into cosmetology school, and the classes you’ll need to take to become a salon ready Redken cosmetologist:

Covid-19 Update 4-29-20
Dear Students, Staff and Guests,
We are waiting for the updated executive orders from our Governor (Indiana) to determine an opening date. When the executive orders allow for us to open, we will first bring our students into the building with strict distancing guidelines and a strict sanitation regimen. We will NOT be taking Guests Services for at a minimum of one week after opening to our students. We will need time to acclimate to our new way of conducting business. We are in the process of setting up our Academy with extra precautionary measures which will include dividers between our stations in the Salon Training Area along with rearranging our classrooms to allow for distance between students and we have enhanced our already rigorous sanitation measures.
We will be conducting temperature check with an infrared thermometer at point of entry into the building for everyone. Anyone with a temperature of 99 degrees Fahrenheit will not be allowed entrance into the building.
Everyone entering our building will be need to be screened with these questions and may be asked to leave based off of the answers.
- Do you have fever, shortness of breath or a cough?
- Are you living with anyone who is sick or quarantined?
- Have you come into contact with any known Covid-19 positive case within the last 14 days?
We are thankful for all of our students and staff that have participated in our Temporary Distance Learning and we appreciate everyone’s patience and support during these unprecedented time. We will be so relieved and excited to get everyone back in the building to continue on with our amazing education! We’ve missed you!!! Stay safe!
Respectfully,

Tips For Taking Online Beauty School Classes
Wish we could be on campus with our ARTIST’s but instead, we’re bringing campus to you! 🏫➡️💻.
The Salon Professional Academy (TSPA) just launched temporary distance-learning or temporary online learning for our cosmetology and esthetics programs. Just like it is for you, it is new to us as well. We are all a little stressed and adapting to our new world as quickly as possible. To make your transition into the beauty world smooth, here are our top 3 tips to help you launch your online classes –
Tips For Online Learning:
- Manage your time. Set up a view of your daily & weekly schedule by first mapping out a calendar of all of the assignment and activity due dates along with work and family commitments. It’s okay to be selfish, block off time each week to get classwork done. Online classes tend to have a weekly flow and include discussion boards that require student participation. Plan to be a part of the conversation.
- Be a good participant. Good discussions are thoughtful, your best resources to help you bring good discussion starters can be from peer conversations, headlines, lecture and course materials. Great responses go beyond agreeing with your peers. Build on the discussion with your own ideas and experiences.
- Build your social community. Share contact information with your peers to connect on homework assignments and for social support. Be a part of TSPA’s Facebook pages for enrolled students to get the best information fast and easy access to peer conversations on campus and homework topics. Your campus is here to support you every step of the way. Online students benefit from the same support as on-campus students, including help with financial aid to questions about technique.
Be kind to yourself. We are all in uncharted territory right now but we all have each other’s support even if it’s temporarily from a distance right now.
Whether you’re interested in attending TSPA or just missing home, take a virtual tour with us! 🎥. Melanie in admissions is just a call (812-436-1306) or email away from your future.

Knowledge is Power! New Law in California. Stay informed!
Things to come……..Knowledge is power!
New Booth Rental Law in
California. Are you compliant?
In California, the ability to have booth renters in your spa or salon is getting more difficult. With the implementation of Assembly Bill 5 (AB5), the definition of “Booth Renter” has become much more specific. AB 5 applies to all businesses in all industries; however, it contains specific elements that relate only to salons. If booth renters do not meet the required criteria, spa and salon owners are at risk of steep fines for employee misclassification these workers.
Although AB 5 is in California, there is a good chance that other states will adopt these standards. Independent Contractors (IC) fall under this as well. Many of these are like the IRS’s definition of an IC . Here is a link to the IRS definition; https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/independent-contractor-defined. What are some of the rules for being an IC?
IC’s must obtain their own, separate local and state business license
An IC must have their own professional licenses and permits required of their specific practice or profession.
IC’s must have “the ability to set or negotiate their own rates for the services performed”
They must be able to set their own work hours.
IC’s can perform the “same type of work” and contract with other businesses.
But, in addition to the definition of and IC, AB5 goes further and more clearly defines what a valid “Booth Renter” is.
The Booth Renter must set their own rates.
Booth Renters must be paid directly by clients.
They must process their own payments
Booth Renters must set their own hours of work.
They have sole discretion to decide the number of clients they will see.
They have sole discretion over which clients they will perform services for.
Booth Renters must schedule their own appointments.
Booth Renters provide the spa or salon owner a Form 1099
So, be diligent. In order to maintain IC’s and booth renters in your business, make sure that you (and they) follow the rules and meet the criteria. If not, you be fined. The IRS will be eager to come after you as well. Employee misclassification is a big deal. The IRS will look to assess penalties and interest on what they consider delinquent payroll if it is deemed that your IC’s and Booth Renters should have been classified as employees.
As always, we’re around to help. The first call is always free.
Be well,
