Louisville Beauty Academy: Family, Community, and Advocacy for Underrepresented Populations

ditranllc

Louisville Beauty Academy, a Kentucky State-Licensed Beauty College, is more than just an institution—it is a family. Partnering with the Kentucky State Board of Cosmetology, the academy has established a strong and positive relationship with the board. Our number one goal is to teach and help all community members obtain their licenses, own salon businesses, and gain employment. The academy is dedicated to uplifting and supporting underrepresented populations, including those with disabilities, immigrants, and others striving to achieve their dreams in the beauty industry. The mission is to ensure that each student and graduate reaches their dignified goal of legitimizing their beauty career with a Kentucky state license. The academy prioritizes teaching the importance of safety, sanitation, procedures, and compliance with Kentucky laws, under the guiding principles of “In God We Trust” and a deep love for the state.

Despite ongoing and visible legal challenges from the public towards the Kentucky State Board of Cosmetology staff, the academy is encouraged by the hard work and dedication of the new board members who are committed to fostering fairness for the community. Their focus is on making Kentucky strong, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their background, has a fair opportunity in the beauty industry.

Louisville Beauty Academy has witnessed firsthand the challenges faced by hundreds of immigrant students and continues to support them through these difficulties. Navigating the complexities of obtaining nail technician and instructor licenses, as well as managing salons and schools, underscores the importance of adhering meticulously to all procedures and laws. It is crucial to recognize that even with the best efforts, there may be unintentional or intentional mistakes by government agency staff, as highlighted by recent news coverage.

It is a common occurrence that the Kentucky State Board of Cosmetology may lose or potentially lose data, regardless of how well records are kept. Therefore, it is essential to maintain all records for protection. This is especially pertinent for foreign-born students whose documents, such as high school diplomas, transcripts, or college credentials, are often repeatedly requested by the board for validation purposes. These requests, cited as security measures, serve as an additional form of validation for various reasons. Please respond to such requests with professionalism and urgency, as often the necessary documentation must come directly from the licensee or a permitted individual. It cannot come from any other agency, such as the school, for security reasons.

At Louisville Beauty Academy, the following are emphasized to students and graduates:

  1. Communicate Clearly and Legally: Always communicate with clarity, conciseness, and professionalism. Use plain English and adhere to legal standards.
  2. Document Everything: Screenshot, take pictures, and timestamp all relevant interactions. Maintain thorough documentation for reference when needed.
  3. Lifelong Support: Once you join the academy, you become part of the family. The academy is here to support you at all times. For assistance, contact the student enrollment department at 502-625-5531 or via email at [email protected].

For all questions regarding the State Board, please direct inquiries to [email protected]. To best assist, it is highly recommended to forward all communication you wish for the academy to review and help with to the school email, including your direct questions to [email protected]. The academy offers writer services to help draft emails, communications, and provide guidance as needed, available at a specific cost that can be discussed. With over 1,000 graduates, primarily from immigrant and underrepresented populations, the academy understands the challenges faced. Procedures, relationships, and legal processes are in place to guide and advise accordingly. Each case is different, so please reach out as soon as help is needed.
