graduated in 1991 – my International qualifications gained at OICB prepared me for all aspects of running a very busy hair & beauty salon. For many years I have employed graduates from the college ensuring my team are all up to the high standards I expect. I also enjoy working as a part time tutor at the college.
Janee’ Parsons
from Oklahoma graduated in 2003 - enrolling at OICB was the best thing I did for my career. The perfection Erika and the educators at the college seek from their students ensures you will be confident in your abilities and enables you to work in a vast array of jobs within the industry. My international diploma from the college set me apart from other Beauty therapists with lesser credentials when I began applying for positions in Spas. I now have the knowledge and expertise to run my own salon in America and owe it all to the unsurpassed training at the OICB.

“My experience at the OICB was a memorable one that I feel very lucky to have had. The class was multi-cultural and I met some great people who made an impact on my life and who I will definitely never forget. The course work is by no means easy, but I feel that because I was pushed to meet my potential, I am much more prepared than many other therapists working today.”

"My full-time course at OICB was fantastic – it was well structured with outstanding support from tutors and staff. The class size lead to both an intimate learning environment and good friends – many of whom I am still in contact with. College-organised work experience led to my employment in the largest day spa in the UK. The inspiration from my principal, Erika Oswin, led me to open my own successful business. I wish future students the same success in this exciting and booming Beauty Industry."
