I ONCE heard that hairdressers go to work every single day with the intention of having fun. that’s the culture I want to be part of!
I'm the Dean of Paul Mitchell Schools and the Co-founder and Co-owner of Paul Mitchell Advanced Education, a partially owned subsidiary of John Paul Mitchell Systems and the franchisor of 100+ cosmetology and /or barbering schools operating under the Paul Mitchell School brand. I formerly served as National Motivational Expert for Paul Mitchell.
From the very beginning in the Paul Mitchell School network, education was a big part of the vision. Soon, the company had assembled an A-team of outstanding stylists and educators, including me!
I've been aiming to inspire audiences across America, spreading a philosophy of business that has helped an entire generation of beauty professionals find success—and has profoundly shaped the network’s culture.
Everything finally came together in 2000 when John Paul DeJoria, Angus Mitchell—by that time co-owner of the company that bears his late father’s name—and I decided to create the first Paul Mitchell School.
Offering a quality education has always been a big part of our vision. The BE NICE philosophy profoundly shaped the Paul Mitchell School network’s culture and helped hundreds of thousands of graduates find success in business and in life.
Today, Paul Mitchell Schools are over 110 locations strong—and growing.
This FEATURE by American Salon sums me up well.
