Our Story

Training with Purpose & Excellence

A Touch of Class Manicure School is more than a school — it's a launchpad for your career in beauty.

Founded on 25+ Years of Experience

A Touch of Class Manicure School was founded by Leroy Henderson Jr., an industry veteran with over 25 years of hands-on experience in nail care.

After decades of perfecting his craft and mentoring aspiring professionals, Leroy saw a need for a school that goes beyond just teaching techniques — one that invests in the whole person.

Located in Houston, Texas, our Christian-based institution is built on the belief that every student deserves personalized attention, real-world practice, and the career support needed to truly thrive in the beauty industry.

From licensing guidance to job placement and business-building advice, we walk with our students every step of the way.
