The Minnesota School of Cosmetology Story

Minnesota School of Cosmetology (MSC), founded in September 2003, carries on a 60-year tradition of quality that began with the establishment of Minnesota Cosmetology Education Center (MCEC) in 1950.

Originally housed in a converted residence, MCEC expanded and updated its facilities and curriculum over the years, always focusing on providing current and high-demand skills for the salon industry. In addition to cosmetology techniques, students studied sales, business communication and fashion.

In 2003, Terry and Kaye Myhre acquired MCEC, named the institution Minnesota School of Cosmetology, and moved the facility from South Saint Paul to a new location in Oakdale. In August 2007, the school moved to its present location in the Valley Creek Mall in Woodbury, where it features a large, professional salon floor as well as classroom space. It is now located at 1750 Weir Drive, Woodbury, MN 55125.
