Mission

Image Academy was founded by leading cosmetology expert, Mrs. Rios. With over 14 years of experience in the beauty industry, Rios saw a need to provide quality education for aspiring cosmetologists in the local Houston area. Her journey to start the school was no easy feat, as she worked three jobs after moving from  Mexico City. Despite having no transportation and facing her fears, Rios persevered and opened the school in 2022.

Today, Image Academy is a thriving business, which has become a beacon of hope and opportunity for many young people. We are committed to providing a safe and welcoming environment where everyone can learn the skills needed to succeed in the beauty industry.

Vision

At Image Academy, our mission is to nurture the creative and professional development of our students. We are dedicated to providing an educational environment that is both challenging and supportive. Led by Mrs. Rios, a highly experienced cosmetologist, our school is focused on developing the skills necessary to succeed in the beauty industry.

Mrs. Rios has a unique vision for Image Academy, which is to create successful students who can not only work in the industry, but also become owners. She also wants to build strong connections with other schools, local salons, barbershops, and nail shops in the community. All of this is done with a flexible schedule that meets the needs of both our students and their families.
