A former Navy officer, Minh and his hairdresser wife, Kien, arrived in the US after the fall of Saigon in 1975 with little to their name, but a big vision for their future. Capitalizing on the influx of immigrants from Vietnam with little English skills, Minh saw an opportunity to teach a trade that could help set them up for their new life in America. In 1987 after success with beauty salons, the Nguyen’s opened their first beauty school in the heart of Little Saigon.
In 1999, brother and sister Tam and Linh Nguyen took over the family business and expanded the business to a second location in Laguna Hills. For over two generations, Advance Beauty College has gone on to graduate over 40,000 students solidifying their dominance in the nails industry and becoming the leading nails program in the country.
