Marinello Schools of Beauty, the West Coast's largest and longest-established chain of beauty schools, has selected Palmdale as its newest branch campus location in Southern California. Located at 641 W. Palmdale Blvd. the Marinello School opened January 5 to offer state-of-the art cosmetology and esthetics education for both students and career professionals seeking advancement.

Headquartered in Whittier, CA, Marinello Schools of Beauty is owned by B&H Education, Inc, the rapidly-expanding leader in beauty education. The company currently owns and operates 34 nationally accredited schools throughout California and Nevada to include the recent opening of seven new northern California locations in November and December, 2008 plus the new Palmdale campus kicking off 2009. B&H provides California's $6 billion dollar professional beauty industry with a significant proportion of its new young beauty professionals.

Grand opening festivities will be announced shortly for the Palmdale campus to include an official ribbon-cutting ceremony by local officials, campus tours for the public and exciting promotions for area residents to enjoy special rates for salon/spa patron beauty services. According to Archana Kaushal, Marinello Director of Marketing, the city of Palmdale provides 'an ideal locale for our company's newest southern California campuses.

Said Ms. Kaushal: "Palmdale is in the heart of a market filled with students seeking beauty career opportunities through a strong, complete and quality education in cosmetology and esthetics. In California alone, the lucrative professional beauty field is a 6 billion dollar recession-resistant industry with continuing strong demand for trained professionals. Marinello graduates have the passion and the power of a solid education to prepare them to go far in a very exciting and diverse career field."
