Becoming a nail tech isn’t just about the finished look—it’s about the precision, care, and confidence you bring to every client. At Jenks Beauty College, we blend classroom theory with real-world practice, so you can learn at your own pace and feel truly ready when you graduate.
We start with the basics—nail theory, anatomy, and safety. This is where you’ll learn the science behind beautiful, healthy nails.
Here’s where the fun starts! You’ll work with professional tools and products, practicing everything from manicures to intricate nail art under the guidance of instructors who are here to cheer you on.
Ready for the real thing? You’ll start working with clients on our salon floor, supervised by licensed instructors. It’s the perfect place to build your speed, confidence, and your own unique style.
We’ll help you gear up for your State Board exam and get you ready for the real world—whether you’re dreaming of a high-end spa or your own private studio.
From day one, you’ll be working with a professional CND student kit—the same gold standard used in top salons. Because we partner with Pivot Point, the techniques and products you’ll learn are exactly what you’ll be using in your career.
Life doesn’t stop for beauty school, so we’ve built a schedule that works with your life, not against it. Our school is open Monday–Thursday (8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.) and Friday (8:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.). You can choose to train in at least four-hour blocks whenever it suits you. Whether you’re looking at full-time (30 hours) or our popular part-time options (23 or 15 hours), we make sure you stay on track, no matter how busy life gets.
Investing in your future is a big step, and we’re here to make it simple. Financial aid is available for those who qualify, and we’ll walk you through all the details—tuition, kit costs, and even how to use Tribal or VA benefits. No surprises, just honest, helpful guidance.
The program is 600 clock hours. Full-time students (30 hours/week) typically finish in about 20 weeks, part-time students at 23 hours/week in about 26 weeks, and at 15 hours/week in about 40 weeks. Your pace depends on your attendance and progress, and our flex schedule makes it easier to stay on track.
Every Monday! Unlike schools that make you wait months for the next cohort, Jenks Beauty College starts new students weekly. Enroll by Thursday and you can start class the following Monday.
Financial aid is available to those who qualify. Start by completing the [Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®)] — our school code is 015428 — then meet with our team to review your options. We also work with area Tribes on tuition funding and proudly accept VA benefits. We’ll help you find the path that fits your budget.
Manicuring students receive a professional CND kit packed with the products and tools you’ll use throughout training — and into your career. Kit contents are updated periodically, so you’ll receive the current list during enrollment. Download a PDF of what’s included in the kit.
You choose when you train! The building is open Monday–Thursday 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. and Friday 8:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m. Come in any time during those hours for at least four hours at a stretch, and hit your weekly hours. Manicuring students can choose 30, 23, or 15 hours per week — the 15-hour option is available only for our Esthetics and Manicuring programs. It’s the only schedule of its kind in Oklahoma, and you can adjust it as life changes.
Absolutely. Our curriculum dedicates significant time to artificial nails and nail enhancements (160 hours) and nail art (60 hours) — so you’ll graduate able to create everything from a clean classic manicure to intricate, on-trend nail designs.
Once you’ve built your core skills in the classroom, you’ll move to our student salon floor and provide real services to the public under the supervision of licensed instructors. It’s the best way to build confidence, speed, and a loyal clientele before you graduate.
Getting started is easier than you might think. You’ll have a dedicated admissions guide who will stick with you from your first tour to your first day.
