About Our School

In June 2016 Tamika Turner embarked on the historic journey to open Tennessee's First Freestanding Natural Hair School, The Institute of Beauty. Our Mission at The Institute of Beauty is the "Triple E Standard" which is to educate, empower, and equip our students in the field of Natural Hair Care. Since opening our doors, we have cultivated a curriculum and learning model that is unmatched! Having  graduated well over 200 students while also maintaining a 100% Tennessee Board of Cosmetology pass rate we have proven that #IOBTNWORKS!

Our Natural Hair Stylist program prepares students with hands-on training in Natural Hair Care, Braiding Techniques, Extensions, Natural Hair Care Products, and more in 300 hours! We are happy to announce that we now offer a Master Educator's (Instructor) Program for licensed Cosmetologist and Natural Hair Stylists.
