History
Tennessee School of Beauty was founded in 1930 by Mrs. Jean Brown at Knoxville,TN.     Early in 1931 she urged her son C.B.Brown, to come join her as Director of the school.      Mr.Brown had a vision and believed that the Cosmetology Field had immense growth possibilities that it could develop into one of America's most affluent industries.      He envisioned the creation of a State Licensing Board to protect the public from unscrupulous practitioners and to offer the Hairdresser protection and professional status.     He initiated and served as Chairman of the Legislative Committee through whose efforts such a Board was created in 1939.     

To further upgrade and enhance the public acceptance and image of the profession, Mr. Brown organized and served as the first president of the Tennessee Association of the Beauty Schools.     

Since that time, he served several terms as President of that Association .     He Also served as President of the national Association of Cosmetology Schools, and as an elected Commissioner on the National Accreditation Commission of Cosmetology Arts and Sciences.     

He, along with his son, Gordon, and grandson Adam, have constantly strived to elevate the educational concepts in the field and to assist in upgrading the professional standards.     

In 1958, the second Tennessee School of Beauty was founded in Oak Ridge TN.     In 1962, Mr. Gordon Brown joined this school as Director.     The third Tennessee School of Beauty was founded in Alcoa TN in 1970 with Mr. Gordon Brown as Director.     Mr. Gordon Brown served as a Board of Director on Teacher's Educational Council and on the National Association of Accredited Cosmetology Schools.     

In 1987, after completing, with high honors, his Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration from The University of Tennessee and turning down a scholarship to Law School, Mr.Adam Brown became the fourth generation to join Tennessee School of Beauty.

Mr.Adam Brown's fresh young ideas have been an integral part of the changes which have prepared and enabled the school to continue to be a leader in Cosmetology Education in the 21st century.     Mr. Adam Brown is currently serving on the Board of Directors of the the Association of Accredited Cosmetology Schools, thus enabling the school to maintain their national Placement contacts throughout the United States and enabling Tennessee School of Beauty to become aware of changes in the industry as the occur.     

Tennessee School of Beauty recently merged all of their locations into one.     The school felt it was in the students' best interest to have all classes, teachers, customers, etc. at one facility.
