I had a good experience with the school and teachers- however the Asian woman working in charge of payments- Maria- was very unprofessional and rude. She got angry at me because I was questioning why I had to pay $500 something out of no where. The school had said I paid off my entire balance back in July, but apparently I still owed money and they did not notify me until the week I graduated. It was an error on their end, the website charged my card it just “didn’t go through” even though it said I had paid off my entire balance.
I was obviously confused and upset because I got email receipt that I made all the payments, extremely unorganized and confusing. Then the assistant director was helping me she was very nice- my payment magically got lowered down to $548 when Maria said it was a higher amount that I owed. They also continuously messed up my absent and makeup hours and that was a whole other headache. For 10k in total I would expect more organization, but this school is money hungry and if you’re not on top of your hours and payments and keep proof they will take any chance to take more money from you. Its been weeks since I graduated and still no information on how to get my temporary license, register for the test, career service outreach, nothing and it’s been past the 10-15 days that they said it would take. Honestly you’re probably better off going to another school that’s smaller and more organized, all esthetician schools are pretty much the same this school did not teach me anything out of the ordinary, just the bare minumum

I just love Christine Valmy so very much!! When I started school here I thought we were going to learn how to beautify faces and that's it. Boy was I in for a ride, a beautiful ride! Learning the ins and outs & the different techniques in this industry has truly sparked me to go further. In life from time to time you'll come across someone who not only believes in you, but helps you believe and trust in yourself. For me, that's what Ms. Johansy Molina embodies. I know I can speak for ALL of my classmates when I say her patience, kindness, and PROFOUND knowledge about this field blows our mind!!!!!! When I needed help and repetition to understand what I was learning, she was right there every step of the way. She made me feel heard, seen, and apart of. She has the heart of gold!! I hope to touch people in the way Ms. Johansy has touched me. I'm forever grateful! I would recommend anyone to enroll in Christine Valmy!!!! Do it now...don't wait :)

My experience at Christine Valmy was great! I learned so much about Esthetics and felt ready and prepared for the field. I would recommend this school to anyone who is interested in learning and achieving an ethics license. One of my favorite things is that the school is a testing center. The instructors know exactly what the state requirements are and really prep you for the test to have successful results for the practical and written exam.

Editor's Description
International Certification
Based on the work of the "First Lady of Esthetics" Christine Valmy, this school strives to deliver a high-quality experience across the spectrum of beauty education, skincare treatment methods, and all-natural products for personal and professional care.
The school's 600-hour esthetics program is split into four modules—theory, practical, makeup, and clinical—to give students an in-depth understanding of how the skin works and responds to formulas and treatment methods. Students are then taught how to apply that knowledge, perform treatments and select appropriate solutions to address skin issues. Learners also become proficient in both the fundamentals and specialties of makeup application.
Courses in waxing, nail specialty, makeup, and international certification are also available. "I very much enjoyed my evening classes," says alumna Ashley. "The instructors share their real-world experience and prepared me to make sure I would pass the state board."
