Paul Mitchell Schools Announce Spring 2026 Open House

From coast to coast on April 22, 2026, Paul Mitchell Schools will open their doors and welcome guests to their Spring Open House events. If you or someone you know wonders what it would take to become a hairstylist, barber, esthetician, nail technician, or makeup artist, this is your chance to explore the unique culture and career-focused education at one of the 90+ Paul Mitchell Schools across America.

With a theme of “Grow Your Future, Grow the Planet,” the 2026 Spring Open House welcomes every visitor as a VIP guest. Participants will have an actual classroom experience, learn about scholarships and financial options, and enjoy special event activities from the Tea Tree product line, including the opportunity to plant a tree with the hair care brand that has planted over one million trees.

Paul Mitchell Schools’ Dean and Cofounder Winn Claybaugh says, “This is an exciting time in the education world, as many powerful, influential people are shining an important spotlight on the trades, which of course includes the professional beauty industry. I was honored to highlight this important conversation with Mike Rowe, known for his TV show, Dirty Jobs and for testifying before a Congressional committee about the importance of strengthening career and technical education.”

Winn adds, “Our Paul Mitchell Schools are thrilled to celebrate 25 years of providing amazing opportunities for thousands of graduates who have gone on to launch exciting careers, support themselves and their families, and play an important role in the lives of their clients.”
