Phagans’ Colleges have been in existence since 1953 and were founded by Wilma Lee Phagans-Harrington. There were six original colleges located throughout Oregon. Now there are nine colleges located in Oregon, which are owned by three separate corporations. I Phasion Inc. owns six of the nine colleges and Karen Dieckman is the proud owner of the company.
Ms. Dieckman worked for Phagans’ for 20 years before purchasing her first college, Phagans’ Central Oregon Beauty College, in 1980 located in beautiful Bend, Oregon. Phagans’ School of Beauty, located in the state capitol, was purchased by Karen in 1981.
In 1987, the next college to become a part of the I Phasion Inc. team was Phagans’ Medford Beauty School, located in the southern region of Oregon. Then, in 1989, Phagans’ Beauty College located in the college town of Corvallis was purchased. That same year she incorporated the colleges as
I Phasion Inc., which is pronounced as “eye fashion.”
I Phasion Inc. opened another college, located in the rolling hills of southern Oregon in 1992, Phagans’ Grants Pass College of Beauty. Our most recent addition came on New Years Day 1996 when Phagans’ Newport Academy of Cosmetology Careers, located along the gorgeous Oregon coastline, became part of the corporate team.
All six of these colleges are privately incorporated by I Phasion Inc. d.b.a. Phagans’ Cosmetology Colleges and Karen Dieckman sits as the residing President and C.E.O. of the corporation.
