Maybe it’s because of the “beauty school drop-out” in Grease, but professionals in the beauty industry can sometimes have difficult stereotypes to contend with. However, nothing could be farther from the truth! In fact, to make it in this well-paid industry you have to be ambitious, highly-qualified and professional. In this regard, an education from the Christine Valmy International School is an excellent credential. At Christine Valmy, you can earn certifications and diplomas to qualify you in a wide array of fields from esthetics, cosmetology, hair and makeup arts through advanced training and spa treatments. While preparing you for the state board exams, the focus of our schools is to train students to be the best beauty practitioners they can be. Our graduates are the most advanced in their areas and are the most in-demand of professionals in the industry. An education at the Christine Valmy International School is a great start to a new and exciting well-paid career.
With two Christine Valmy International Schools in the New York Tri-state area, how do you decide which one to go to? There are some differences between the schools. The New York school focuses on Esthetics, Makeup and Nail Artistry and is right in the center of the fashion capital of the United States. With clientele coming into the school for treatments from the exciting local industries such as advertising, television and the garment center, it takes full advantage of the hustle and bustle of New York City. If you like the urban life, this might be the choice for you. Courses prepare the student thoroughly for the state board exams with in-depth, hands-on practice. At the New York school, we offer diploma classes taught in English, Spanish and Korean (and in other languages with sufficient enrollment). If you plan to work in New York City, the curriculum at our New York School will qualify you with everything you need to begin your career in this exciting place!
The environment at the New Jersey school is equally as professional as that of our New York school, with the added touch of less traffic, quieter surroundings and a lower cost of living, all while preparing the student for the New Jersey State Board Certification. The curriculum includes Esthetics, Cosmetology, Hairstyling and post-graduate courses in Spa Treatments in a newly installed state of the art facility. Our New Jersey school offers classes predominantly in English and periodically in Spanish. New Jersey, like the beauty professional, suffers from negative stereotypes that are equally far from reality. In contrast to its overly industrialized reputation, New Jersey has many exclusive suburbs. Combine this with the fact that the state is highly understaffed, and you will find that for every ambitious, qualified student who graduates from Christine Valmy, there are numerous excellent jobs, which means that an education at the Christine Valmy International School in New Jersey might be right for you!
What are the advantages of a Christine Valmy education in the beauty field? The
main advantage a Christine Valmy education offers is the ability to take
charge of your life and be happy in your work. Many of our students start
the program with excellent credentials in other careers where they were unhappy.
Through the process of learning a new profession they are often able to earn
as much, if not more than before—and work in a wonderful environment! After
all, in what other field are you surrounded with a great atmosphere, soothing
music and clients who you’ve helped reach a state of utter relaxation? Add
to that--an internationally accepted diploma and assurance of the finest
quality education. Other advantages are personal. For instance, the satisfaction
that comes from the beauty professional's ability to help other people. One
of our teachers reflects on one of her own early clients who had severe acne
and even today calls her, so many years later, to thank her for improving
his life! If you love working with people and learn to handle them with expertise
and a caring, professional attitude, there may be no better career!
Our directors agree that the most satisfying experience for them and the faculty is to see our students reach the top of their career, which is what the school hopes for in every case. With the majority of our enrollments coming from referrals, we are well on our way to having this happen. Whether you study in New York City, Pine Brook, New Jersey or any of our international locations, an education at the Christine Valmy International School is the finest in the industry. Since we first opened our school on Fifth Avenue in 1965, we have graduated more than 60,000 beauty professionals. Christine Valmy International Schools are committed to helping people realize their full potential and achieve their greatest professional ambitions. Our emphasis on hands-on training produces graduates who understand the day-to-day realities of the beauty industry. We expose students to the best products and techniques, and all the training necessary to succeed in a rewarding and lucrative career.
