A need for more space has moved Designs School of Cosmetology to a new location in Paso Robles.
Owner Sharon Skinner says that community support, along with growth in the salon industry have allowed her to relocate her school to a new, 7,100 square foot spot in the River Oaks Center. The center was developed by North County developer Estrella Associates and is located on Buena Vista Drive near the Cuesta College North County Campus.
“Wes Willhoit and his team at Estrella Associates have created an extraordinary learning environment which supports our salon services to the public,” Skinner said. “It’s exciting to move into an environmentally friendly facility that’s elegant and ideally suited to our needs. I couldn’t be happier.”
The school is family owned and operated by Sharon and her son, Kyle. They have a branch location in Pleasanton, which is operated by her oldest son, Jason.
The current increase in enrollment, Skinner said, reflects the increased interest that today’s students have in technical educational opportunities.
“We hope to provide education for students from Santa Barbara to Salinas,” Skinner added. “Our proximity to Cuesta also makes the new location very attractive.”
Willhoit said he’s pleased to welcome a new tenant who is bringing vitality to the center. “They fill the place with a lot of creative energy.”
