Christine Valmy, owner and operator of renowned educational institutions in the field of beauty, on Tuesday announced the grand opening of a newly constructed location in Wayne, for the Christine Valmy International School of Esthetics & Cosmetology.
The 20,000-square-foot facility represents its largest school yet and was built from the ground up with custom details to enhance the learning experience of students.
Located next to the Willowbrook Mall in the Willowbrook Center, the school includes specially designed classrooms for theory, hands-on practice and clinics for students to deliver spa and salon services to the general public. Lessons in skin care, hairstyling and manicure will be taught in spacious, dedicated classrooms with modern amenities to meet the needs of each curriculum.
“We’ve painstakingly planned and executed every detail while building this facility, from handmade hair-washing stations to optimal lighting in makeup rooms, to spa-quality lockers and so much more,” Peter de Haydu, Christine Valmy’s CEO and the founder’s son-in-law, said. “We want our CV family to feel the professionalism and passion that is inherent to the Christine Valmy organization as soon as they enter through the elevators that open to our lobby.”
Christine Valmy International School of Esthetics & Cosmetology offers accredited courses in cosmetology & hairstyling, skin care and manicure. All classes currently in session in the Pine Brook location are moving to the new school, which is located on the routes of multiple New Jersey Transit bus lines and offers large parking areas.
“We are incredibly excited to give our students and staff a beautiful new home in the Willowbrook school,” de Haydu said. “Our New Jersey presence has historically been relatively small due to space constraints and limited access to public transit. This brand new school is sprawling and next to a major bus destination hub, so we can now offer our top-quality education in both English and Spanish to a much larger population of budding beauty pros. It’s truly a game changer that raises the bar for us, and for the state’s beauty education system as a whole.”
