Campus Lowdown
With two major university campuses (the University of North Texas and the Texas Woman’s University), Denton is a true college town with a lively student population. Downtown there’s a buzzing coffee shop culture, with pavement cafes to sit and sip a latte while you watch the street life go by.
Jupiter House is a must for a morning coffee and chat, or head to its sister shop, the Europa, to indulge in one of their amazing confectionary items – chocolate coated strawberries, anyone?
Denton comes to life at night, partying until 2am and later, as the bars and clubs on the Square and Fry Street turn on their lights and crank up the jukeboxes. The student crowd is concentrated around Fry Street, while The Square offers drinking, eating and music options for a more mixed clientele. The street is often filled with bubbles, blown from a van selling exotic herbs and spices – Denton is that kind of town!
Denton was named America’s Best Music Scene in 2008, and has a huge variety of live music on offer every night of the week. There’s Andy’s on The Square for live music on the ground floor and a grungy basement for drinks, linked by a dumb waiter. The building is full of character, having started out as a grocery store in 1877, and done time as a risqué movie theater. There’s also the more chic Paschall Bar upstairs for cocktails.
Other venues include Haileys, where indie band Midlake performed their first gig, and J&J’s Pizza, who have regular band nights in their basement, and Cool Beans, a bar on Fry Street that has live music on the roof (yep, the roof!)
OGLE SCHOOL - DENTON
ESTHETICIAN PROGRAM
Ogle School can provide you with the hands-on skills and technical know-how to launch a successful career in beauty.
One of our Denton campus students recently said: “I am a current student at this location and let me tell you — I am having the time of my life! Our instructors work very hard to answer any of our questions and keep pushing us to do our best.”
In Ogle School’s esthetics program, you’ll learn about the latest hair removal techniques and the creative side of professional makeup application.
The coursework also includes key technical components of skincare including anti-aging techniques and addressing skin problems like acne or oily skin.
It doesn’t stop there. At Ogle, we want our students to succeed, that’s why we also include classes on the business of beauty including topics like merchandising, client retention, and building relationships.
In addition to learning the theories of esthetics and practicing with mannequins, students also work directly with clients. After a recent student treatment at the Denton campus, one client commented: “The skincare/aesthetician/spa side of Ogle here is AWESOME! Despite being students, everyone I’ve seen is very professional and provides top-of-the-line service. I have gotten facials, brow waxes and tints, and eyelash extensions here and have NEVER had a bad experience.”

Other shops worth exploring include the quirky music choice on offer at Mad World Records, and shabby chic vintage, up-cycled furniture and vintage clothes at the Boyd Girls Vintage Market, a mecca for junk-hunters.
For big name retailers and modern shopping, head over to the Golden Triangle Mall, located close to the Ogle School campus, and home to over 90 specialty shops, with the big players like Dillard’s, Macy’s, JCPenny and Sears all on hand.

DENTON CITY GUIDE
Denton is a town full of character, from the Art Deco architecture to its eclectic mix of antique shops, coffee houses and trendy bars. With 121,000 residents, it’s got a friendly small town vibe by Texas standards, but with three universities and an internationally renowned music scene, Denton is an alternative paradise, as well as a laid back place to live.
There are a variety of jobs in the local beauty industry, with hundreds currently advertised on job search sites. The city boasts a range of salons, hairdressers and nail bars.
LOCAL LIFE
Dentonites are fiercely loyal to their town, and so there’s a big sense of community here. Locals hang out in Denton Downtown Square, affectionately known as just ‘The Square’, a grassy area surrounded by some of Denton’s best-loved historic buildings and most popular shops. At the Square’s centre is the beautiful and historic Courthouse-on-the-Square, the center of the Denton universe. No longer dishing out justice, it’s now home to Denton’s Courthouse-on-the-Square museum, and it’s a popular focal point for social activities. There are regular drum circles held on the courthouse steps on Saturday nights, where locals gather to make music and dance. Drop by with a drum or borrow one and join in with the groove. Other social events happen on the lawn in front of the courthouse, including outdoor concerts where audiences sprawl on the grass or in chairs to soak up the music and atmosphere. The annual Holiday Lighting Festival is held here at Thanksgiving time, a family event featuring live music and carriage rides in the square.
The rest of the Downtown area, with its colorful wall art and historic architecture, is packed with independent shops selling vintage fashion, used books and handmade crafts, with a huge array of restaurants, bars and music venues.
Denton is spoiled for choice when it comes to eating out – whether you want sushi or steak, you’ll find it at one of the many establishments in the Downtown area or further afield.
Many students and residents get around town by bicycle, and the nearby countryside has plenty of outdoor activity on offer, like boat trips, fishing and hiking around Lake Ray Roberts. The area known as North Texas Horse Country is close by too, famed internationally for its horse breeding farms which attract enthusiasts from all over the world.
For big-city amenities, Denton is within easy reach of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, (Denton forms the third point in the ‘Golden Triangle of North Texas’), so it’s conveniently located for major entertainment and sporting events, while retaining its own quirky, off-beat character.
