History

Marinello Schools of Beauty was established in 1905 by Ruth Maurer. She started the schools to develop trained beauticians after she had developed a face cream in her kitchen that was distributed throughout Mexico, Canada, the United States, South America, England, Russia, South Africa, Australia, China and Japan. The schools were named after Giovanni Marinello, the founder of Modern Cosmetology.

Marinello's headquarters moved to New York in 1925, and then again to Los Angeles when the company was purchased by Scope Industries in 1963. Since March 2004, Marinello Schools of Beauty has been under the ownership of B&H Education, Inc., located in Beverly Hills, California. B&H Education, Inc. partnered with investment firms to purchase the company's remaining 13 campuses and acquire additional schools. Under their leadership, Marinello has grown into a nationwide chain of beauty schools with 57 campuses in California, Connecticut, Kansas, Massachusetts, Nevada, and Utah.

In February 2016, Marinello announced the closure of all 56 of its U.S. campuses.
