At VXO, we believe that beauty is inclusive and empowering. Our founder, Vashtai Wright, envisioned a brand that helps everyone become the best version of themselves. With VXO Lash and Med Spa, and the VXO Beauty Academy, we are setting new standards in the beauty industry. We embrace diversity, offering treatments for all skin and hair types, and foster a positive, inclusive environment where both clients and professionals can thrive.
Vashtai Wright’s love for her family and their unique experiences navigating life, combined with her love of beauty and her academic expertise, drove her passion to create VXO Beauty. VXO is dedicated to empowering individuals through high-level, diverse education and creating inclusive beauty spaces where everyone feels welcome, represented and leave feeling like the best version of themselves.
What started as an internship program turned into a drive to address the serious gaps I saw within beauty education. I realized the industry was often missing the mark in properly preparing future professionals. That’s when I decided to dive into curriculum development. Throughout my education career, I’ve been deeply influenced by my adopted parents, Roger and Tatiana Schorlemer. They showed me what it means to strive for more than what society expects of you and instilled in me a strong belief in educational standards that are both high and meaningful.
Partnering with Vashtai Wright, we created an academy that emphasizes real-world, hands-on training and provides the education the industry desperately needs. Our academy is built on a foundation of authenticity and rigor, ensuring that students not only learn but thrive in their careers.
What sets me apart is my holistic understanding of the industry—from the business side to the educational side. I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t, and I’m proud to say that the academy we’ve developed brings together all the best practices I’ve learned over the years. What I’m most proud of is the fact that we’re not just teaching students—we’re equipping them to truly excel. Our academy is a place where education meets passion, and where students leave ready to make a real impact in the beauty industry.
If there’s one thing I want potential clients and students to know, it’s that we are committed to doing things the right way. We believe in elevating the standards of beauty education and ensuring that everyone who walks through our doors leaves with the skills, confidence, and drive to succeed.
