The London College of Beauty Therapy (LCBT) is London’s No.1 beauty college, founded in 1995 to provide specialist education in beauty, hair and make-up. We offer a route into the industry for hundreds of aspiring beauty professionals every year, and have trained thousands of graduates now working across the sector in spas, salons, hotels, cruise ships, TV and film, beauty retail and running their own businesses.

• We create our beauty therapy, hairdressing and make-up courses to meet the changing needs of employers
• We work with some of the top brands in the industry to help students to provide industry enrichment opportunities
• We teach more students each year than any other beauty college in London 

Our courses range from one-year Level 2 and Level 3 diplomas to gain the essential qualifications you need to start your career as a beauty therapist, hairdresser or make-up artist, which are fully-funded for 16-18s, to a Level 4 course for industry professionals who want to upskill. We work closely with leading employers in beauty, hair and make-up to ensure you will gain the skills you need to succeed and get valuable hands-on experience, and you will learn from expert tutors with many years in the industry. 

In spring 2025, we moved to a brand new campus in the heart of London’s Shoreditch at Fashion Street!
