I recently completed my esthetics program, and I am incredibly grateful for my experience at this school. Anita, the Director of Esthetics and my main instructor, truly puts her heart into teaching. She brings years of expertise and is deeply dedicated to helping us succeed. While she can be tough at times, it’s all to push us to be our best, and she treats each student like family. I have a strong background in beauty, with family members in the industry for decades, and I can confidently say Anita provides top-notch education, teaching you not only the basics but also how to make your services stand out. Dolly, my other instructor, is also wonderful. She has an incredible depth of knowledge in clinical treatments and waxing, and her kindness and patience make learning from her a great experience. Justine is another joy to be around. Her classes are fun and interactive, and she’s the waxing queen! Each instructor has their own strengths, and no matter who you learn from, you’ll walk away with valuable skills. The administrative team—Maria, Sarah, and Deb—were also nothing but helpful and incredibly welcoming! They made navigating the program and any questions or concerns so easy, and they genuinely care about the students. Balancing life, work, and school as an adult wasn’t easy, but it was so worth it. Completing this program feels like such an accomplishment, and I’m excited to carry forward everything I learned. Thank you to everyone at the school for this fantastic experience!

Awesome deal on haircuts only $5. Professional students and knowledgeable instructors. The school is very clean and modern. Be patient when you come as a client, sometimes you have to wait a bit.

Came here several time since I discovered this place. First of all I like Ms. Mari, her kindness, the way she does blow dry, she empathize with the students and takes her time to stop by and starts a conversation with me. She loves teaching, that's for sure!! Always demonstrating to students how she does it. I also want to thank Ms. Shawn (I hope spelling it right), she also knows what to do and I like when she smiles. She helps students in the process, and she comes to stations regularly to check if everything is going well. Finally, I want to say something about the lady at front desk. Has been 3 times saying: "it's full", "there are no students", "they don't take clients today"...plus how she says it. When she's not there, they allowed me to get my service done. The last time she saw me at the entrance walking to the front desk, she didn't say anything. After 5mins of waiting (I was the only one over there) she came. She asked nothing like how may help you? so I come and asked to color my hair...Finally she said it ! I mean. Why she didn't say it when she saw me walking to the front desk? Hopefully the academy hire another lady.! Sometimes there is a long blonde hair girl. I guess she's a teacher. She is polite. Don't know her name but she's always there. Please change that!! I still wanna come. Thank you!
