About

All About Beauty Academy, also known as AABA, is located in Suite 309 of an office complex on Independence Parkway in Plano. The school is approved by the TDLR and states that its programs prepare students for the Texas State Exam and for licensing in lash, hair, nail, barbering, esthetics and laser hair removal. The school describes itself as a premier beauty institution, and says its training takes place in a real-world salon and spa setting.

Classes can be taken in person, online, or in a mix of both, on day or evening schedules. Full-time cosmetology classes meet Monday to Thursday, either 9am to 2pm or 6pm to 10pm, and part-time cosmetology classes meet Monday to Thursday with morning or evening options. Class times are confirmed at the time of booking. The school says it adjusts its teaching methods to each student's needs, and that its instructors are experienced and industry-certified, according to the school.

Beyond licensing, the school offers a range of continuing courses. These include advanced aesthetics training through its AABA bundle, laser hair removal courses from a professional exam through a full program bundle, and certifications in areas such as hydrafacials, chemical peels, IPL photofacials, microneedling, laser resurfacing and spider vein removal, body contouring and skin tightening, and Botox-style injection basics. Permanent makeup courses cover microblading, microshading, permanent eyeliner, lip blushing, scalp micropigmentation, areola restoration and scar camouflaging. The school also lists CPR, First Aid and AED training.

Tuition can be paid through an in-house, interest-free payment plan chosen at enrollment. The school also offers financing through Affirm, with listed rates from 0 to 36 percent APR, subject to eligibility and a possible down payment. Checking eligibility does not affect credit, though Affirm installment payments may be reported to credit bureaus. The website also lists a notice about potential ineligibility for its licensing programs. The school's public service menu, which covers facials, hair, lash and brow, nails, pedicures and waxing, lists prices from $5 to $110, with many services marked as starting prices.

The school says it tailors its learning methods to each student's needs.

According to the school, training takes place in a salon and spa-style environment.
