WHY SOCIAL CITIZEN ACADEMY?
SALON REALITY BEAUTY SCHOOL
One of the newest cosmetology schools in Arizona, Social citizen is changing the status quo and creating the new generation of beauty professionals.
A citizen is someone who is a proud part of their community. A citizen is a social responsibility in action. A Social Citizen is someone who enters the hairdressing community, disrupts, and ignites a change in the mentality of the hairdressing industry.
That’s what we strive to create: students who are ready with their mind, body, and soul to become stellar hairstylists.
DREAM + VISION
Social Citizen Academy was started with a dream and a vision.
Our school was founded by the married team of Tyler James Whittier and Jessica Whittier, both professional hair stylists with years of experience behind the chair.
During Tyler’s assisting program in his salon, he saw that new hair professionals lacked the skills they needed to be successful after graduating from beauty school. And Social Citizen Academy was born!
Tyler is passionate about sharing what this industry can do for someone’s life, as it has for his.
He wants to disrupt the status quo and provide future beauty professionals with the training they need to be successful beauty professionals!
WHY SOCIAL CITIZEN ACADEMY?
Our philosophy is that we work under the power of immersion.
That means providing a lot of information quickly while holding ourselves to the highest expectations. We teach with precision and purpose to better prepare our students for the real world as professional hairstylists.
Trust the process at Social Citizen Academy. There are so many reasons why our Scottsdale beauty school could be a good fit for you!

We don’t just think we know what skills you need to be your own boss, we know it because we’ve done it ourselves!
OUR CURRICULUM
We’ve partnered with some of the best in the industry to teach our students everything they need to succeed as a licensed hair stylist! Learn how to market yourself on Instagram through Beauty as a Business and use Pivot Point LAB for an interactive online beauty curriculum you can take with you anywhere.
