Five Stars to Isabella Cosmo! I was nervous to cut about 10 in off my hair, but she did a great job. She took the time to talk to me about what I wanted the style to look like, and gave me great recommendations on different products to use afterwards. Thanks, Bella!

Long overdue review! In late August I was EXTREMELY overdue for a haircut and undercut touchup and Liz was everything I could have asked for in a stylist and more! With curls it's hard to find someone who understands what "taking off a little bit" means, but Liz got it perfect. She also taught me about my misuse of conditioner and was a great conversationalist about curl care. Since my visit, my hair has felt healthier than it has in years. My only regret is not scheduling a followup with her right away! I just got one on the books for November. Thank you, Liz!

Emmett was a fantastic hairstylist. He was very fun to talk to and engage with while my hair was being done and speaking of said it, feels and looks fantastic!

I saw some prior student reviews of this place but Im not sure why more students and staff arent revealing to the public about this business. This location is literally scamming students out of large tuition prices and providing nearly zero education for their money and time. The leadership team: Danielle Schewe, Nicole Jentel and Shannon S. in particular need to be called out for actively covering up the fact the school is NOT providing what its selling: career training, knowledge and competent instructors. During my time as a student there I wrote internal grievance emails, watched parents come in to complain about wasted money/time, contacted corporate and even contacted the state. None of it made any change. Not once in my program did I see a teacher demonstrate a proper skin analysis, an extraction or demonstrate much skin care knowledge. We spent MOST of the 750hrs sitting around. Not only is there a high teacher turn over rate but the instructors had zero to little esthetics experience. Students literally described leaving here as traumatized. Honestly , its all a mess and no one should go to this school especially if it may add to the burden of your life situation. Its a business that causes more harm to the community than good. If you really feel called into the beauty field- get your education somewhere else because once you sign the contract into any of the programs you begin to lose money and time.
