The Best of the Bronx Award is voted on by the Bronx community — real people who recognize the quality and impact of local businesses and schools. Brittany Beauty Academy has won Best Beauty School in 2023, 2024, and 2025 because of our experienced instructors, strong programs, community involvement, and commitment to student success. Three consecutive wins reflect consistent excellence, not a one-time result.
