History

Arnold's Beauty School and Salon have been a part of the downtown Milan community for many years. The Salon originated in Bradford, TN, in 1934 under the ownership of JW and Lema Arnold. After several moves around the area, the Salon settled into it's current location on North Main Street in 1949.

The school has been in operation since 1941 and was originally called Flo's Beauty School. The late J. W. and Don Arnold purchased the school from Mary Nynn Thompson in 1964 and changed the name to Arnold's Beauty School. In 1973, the current building on Second Street was acquired to accommodate the fast growing school. The School became federally accredited in 1983 and is currently accredited by the Council on Occupational Education.
