Founder J.T. Austin launched Austin’s Beauty College after building a successful career as a Master Barber and opening salons across Clarksville. Along the way, he created career-defining opportunities for generations of licensed cosmetologists and beauty specialists.
Austin’s Beauty College, Inc. became the area’s first Pivot Point Member School, and Pivot Point’s world-class training continues to drive our curriculum today. J.T. and his wife, Linda Austin, managed the school side by side until J.T.’s passing in October 2014. Today, Ms. Linda stays actively involved in daily operations, continuing to carry his vision forward with passion.
J.T.’s pioneering vision of opening and operating multiple salons transformed local beauty education and paved the way for generations of barbers and cosmetologists. His client-first philosophy and encouraging approach remain the cornerstone of our educational style.
