I went outside of my comfort zone to get my hair done here-- I moved recently and haven't found a new stylist yet.

I was a student here for the skin care program. It was the best school experience ever! The instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful. They actually make learning fun, and provide easy ways to learn and remember what you are learning. The school is more than accommodating with room, lighting and cleanliness. I didn't want to leave after graduation, I had a very pleasant experience and missed everyone. I do still go there to see them periodically.
