History Of GUTI - The Premier Beauty and Wellness Academy

GUTI  as Bradenton Beauty Academy, Inc. was founded in 1953 and has been in continuous operation since that time. In 1989, the school was moved from downtown Bradenton. In 2003, the school underwent a change of ownership. The name was changed to Bradenton Beauty and Barber Academy, Inc. and the Bradenton location was located at 5505 Manatee Ave. West, offering vocational training in cosmetology, barbering, and nail/skincare specialties.

In 2008 we expanded to include another Academy located in central Florida, beautiful Sebring. Formerly the Sebring School of Hair Design we are proud to offer training at this additional location.

In 2011, we changed the name to GUTI, reflecting our strong family ownership and opened a state of the art academy at 4212 Cortez Rd. in Bradenton.

We encourage all prospective students to visit and observe classes in session, look at all the instructional material and talk to the students. There is no obligation. Come in any time for a personal tour of the school or phone for an appointment.
