The most important part of our education is you,

THE CUSTOMER

Without you, we can never fully gain the experience needed for us to have a successful career. You help us to become salon professinals, not just someone that can cut hair. For that, we thank you greatly. Our goal is to please every client that enters our academy. We are students learning a new career. If we take a little longer than normal or don't get your desire quite right the first time, we hope you understand we are here to learn and we will make it right. We strive to make you 100% satisfied with your service and always look for ways to improve. If you see something you think would help us to achieve the satisfaction you deserve, let us know. We love learning how to be the best.

Thank you from all of us.

History

Shear Academy was licensed in 1999 and opened its door October of that year.  It was opened by Jim G. Everett and, his daughter, Rene Dykes. After years of service providing people with a great education, Jim decided to retire. In January of 2009 he sold the school to Hurd Educational Enterprises Inc. Since the school changed hands there have been alot of changes. We have been adding plenty of extra education. Redken is  in the school about every three months to give us additional education that is coming staight out of New York. You also get hands on demonstrations direct from OPI Products top educators. You will have the opportunity to achieve higher standards and stonger qualifications than some working stylists out there today. We take your education very seriously at Shear Academy and we think you will too.
