Looking for a beauty school with integrity? Capri College in Davenport, Iowa, puts student success first. We believe the future of our students and the future of the beauty industry is more important than our bottom line. At our college, you can choose from a number of accredited programs, including cosmetology, esthetics, massage therapy, nail technology, and cosmetology instructor. Qualified, caring instructors teach students the skills and knowledge they need to know to succeed in a future beauty career. Much of our training is done in the student salon and spa areas, where students perform hands-on services under the direct supervision of licensed instructors. Our spacious, newly-renovated building is home to clean, innovative areas for learning, training, and providing services to clients from the community.
At Capri College, We Do What We Love, and Love What We Do!
Capri College in Davenport is a 20,000-square-foot geothermal building with natural light exposure. There is a spacious student salon and spa area, several classrooms, an auditorium that can seat 120 students, and ten treatment rooms devoted to skincare and waxing. Our facilities also include a massage therapy department with its own private entrance, reception area, treatment rooms, instructor offices, student library, and classrooms.
Client parking is on the front and side of the building, and faculty and student parking is in a well-lit private lot at the back. The grounds around the facility are well-maintained and inviting to both students and clients of the salon and spa.

A 1,550-hour comprehensive program for students who want to learn about hair, skincare, makeup, nails, and more.

A 600-hour program focusing on helping others through a variety of skincare services.

A 600-hour program teaching various massages and how they help people relax and heal.

A 1,000-hour program for licensed cosmetologists who want to advance their career as a beauty educator.
We love the city of Davenport, Iowa, for its rich history, myriad of cultural and entertainment options, and plentiful dining opportunities. Davenport is part of the Quad Cities, which consists of Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa and Moline, East Moline, and Rock Island in Illinois. Even with everything that is going on in the Quad Cities, we think Davenport still feels like a friendly and hospitable small town, which complements our family-like school atmosphere at Capri College.
When you aren’t in school, you might want to check out the many things to do along the Mississippi River and in the cultural centers of Davenport. We have an art museum, a museum of history and natural sciences, an IMAX theater, and live musical performances at The River Music Experience. At various times of the year, you could go to music festivals, art festivals, Broadway shows, symphony performances, and much more. Going out to eat is always an adventure as there are many bars and grilles, pubs, and restaurants throughout the city.
We purposely keep our class sizes small at Capri College, so students can receive a more personalized education with plenty of interaction with the instructors.
Students who take our programs can finish their education much faster than students in traditional colleges. For instance, cosmetology is our longest program, and students can complete it in as little as 52 weeks.
Also, we believe that beauty school students learn best through hands-on experience. We do have a classroom component to our education, but many of the hours are spent practicing skills in the student salon and spa under the direct supervision of licensed instructors.
We prepare students to be career-ready after graduation. Although we can’t guarantee employment, we do teach students business skills and then help them find placement through our strong connections with local salons and spas.
Financial aid is available to those who qualify. Start the financial aid process by filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). Once that is processed, we can talk to you about your financing options. Call us at 1-800-728-7222 to talk with a Financial Aid advisor.
To enroll in our beauty school, you must have a high school diploma or GED and a valid driver’s license or government-issued ID. You must submit a completed application form, pay the required $100 admissions fee, and schedule a tour of our campus.

Being an esthetician is about so much more than skincare. It’s about building confidence, helping others see their beauty, and reminding them just how amazing they are. 🤍✨
