Johnny Matthew's Hairdressing Training School

Johnny Matthew's Hairdressing Training School is far more than just another beauty school. Founded by industry veterans Matthew Nolan and Johnny Rawlins, we're driven by a passion for excellence and a commitment to equipping students with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the dynamic world of hair design and barbering. Our school is infused with decades of combined experience, drawing inspiration from the top techniques and aesthetics of London and San Francisco.

Johny Matthew's isn't simply about technical skills; we strive to cultivate the entrepreneurial spirit within each student. Our comprehensive programs prepare individuals not only for the Oregon State Board Exam but also for the challenges and rewards of running their own successful business. Students learn the intricacies of managing their finances, building a loyal clientele, promoting their services, and navigating the ever-evolving landscape of the beauty industry.

Our Programs: Designed For Success

We offer two distinct yet equally comprehensive programs: Hair Design and Barbering. Both programs are meticulously designed to provide a holistic education, blending theoretical knowledge with practical hands-on experience.

Our Hair Design Program, spanning 9-11 months, immerses students in the captivating world of color, cutting, and styling. From mastering the fundamentals of hair care to exploring advanced techniques like geometric cuts and vivid color applications, students delve deep into the art of transforming hair into breathtaking works of art. The curriculum emphasizes the "Real Salon Experience, " where students hone their skills on model clients, simulating the dynamic environment of a professional salon.

The Barbering Program, lasting 6-8 months, equips aspiring barbers with the essential skills and trends to excel in this traditional yet ever-evolving craft. Students gain proficiency in classic barbering techniques, including precision cutting, traditional hot towel shaves, and beard trimming. We also integrate contemporary trends and styles to ensure graduates are well-rounded and ready to cater to the diverse needs of modern clientele.
