About Empire Beauty School

Set near the Susquehanna, Empire Beauty School's Shamokin Dam campus blends small-town calm with hands-on training. The school is known for practical, studio-style learning in hair, skin, and nails plus client care and basic business skills. Classrooms sit next to a professional-style student salon, so lessons move from demo to chair. Students use quiet study spots, supply areas, and straightforward advising that helps them keep pace.

Campus life feels close knit. You see the same classmates, trade tips, and practice with real community clients who come in for services. And the campus often hosts guest demos from area pros, with portfolio days and hiring conversations that stay down to earth. The culture values professionalism, punctuality, and real chair-side manners. Outside class, the Valley offers coffee shops, river parks, and chances to pitch in with local events. It's practical, friendly, and it works.
