Home / Barber School Mount Vernon, NY
Serving Mount Vernon StudentsFade classes, shaving classes and the coveted Master Barber license — American Barber Institute helps Mount Vernon students transform passion into a thriving career in just four months, from our nearby Bronx campus.
Over four months, students gain the skills and knowledge essential to a successful barbering career. The program opens with two weeks of intensive barber theory — sanitation, sterilization, barber history, barber laws and shop management — before moving to the training floor.
Mount Vernon students train at our Bronx campus, 121 Westchester Square, Bronx, NY 10461 — just over the county line. Call Bronx admissions at (718) 676-0640 to arrange a visit.
Our experienced instructors devote real time to hands-on training — facial massages, hot towel shaving, fades — plus thorough preparation for the New York State Board Exam.
