    The communication right from the beginning was very well done. Students work the phones, the front…read moredesk, and do all of the services. There are instructors on the floor that the students can go to for help. Keep in mind that because it's a school, the work will most likely take longer because they are learning and have questions. But it is obvious that the students want to do their best. I had a service that none of the students had seen before, a braid perm. They kept coming by to see how it was done. I was so impressed with their level of excitement about learning a new process. And my cosmetologist, B, was awesome!!! She was on her feet for almost 6 hours straight and had a great attitude! It was her first perm, let alone one she had never heard of. And her fellow students jumped in whenever she needed help. I am impressed with their professionalism, desire to learn, and how they performed their services.

    Are you kidding me?! I had a perm starting at 2pm in which the students and instructors during the…read moreday shift were wonderful! When it came time for the evening and the 1st solution applied to my hair and rods for the perm, I was forgotten and the solution which should have only been 20 minutes, 50 minutes later was finally washed out. Needless to say the student then started to take out the rods without applying the 2nd solution until I pointed out to her what needed to be done. No help from any instructors in the evening, even though they were clearly leaning up against the wall, talking and I expressed frustration about the perm, instructors did nothing! Evening instructors at this location are deceitful unfortunately. If you can make your hair appointment in the day, do so!

    Excellet experience with Sharick and staff. Preston and Campbell Rd. location. My first visit to…read moreOgle, and will continue to go there. Very professional and friendly for my 'color and cut'; very moderate price. Was delightfully surprised. Thank you.

    Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing…read more I understand that students are there to learn, and I fully expect a learning environment. However, learning also requires humility and a willingness to listen--especially when working on someone's natural hair. The student who worked on my hair, Tatum, seemed more interested in projecting confidence than listening to the person whose hair she was servicing. I have 4C natural hair and have specific goals for retaining length and minimizing breakage. I politely explained what works for my hair throughout the process, but my input was met with resistance rather than curiosity. At one point, she even asked if I had gone to cosmetology school because I was giving guidance about my own hair. After applying a demi-color, my hair was not thoroughly conditioned, which is an important step for my hair texture. During the blow-drying process, my hair was repeatedly brushed while dry, causing unnecessary breakage that could have been minimized by properly detangling and conditioning it at the shampoo bowl first. Instead of focusing on technique, there seemed to be more attention given to casual conversation. What disappointed me most was the lack of instruction from the supervising staff. A cosmetology school should be a place where students are actively taught how to work with all hair textures, including tightly coiled 4C hair. Supervisors should be demonstrating, correcting techniques, and encouraging students to listen to clients who know their own hair. My recommendation to Ogle School is to strengthen the training of both students and supervisors when it comes to textured hair. Every client deserves to feel heard, and every future cosmetologist should graduate with the skills and humility to care for all hair types--not just the ones they are most familiar with. I truly hope this feedback is taken constructively because there is an opportunity to improve the learning experience for both students and clients.

    I want to start by saying that my student stylist, Diasia, was wonderful. She was knowledgeable,…read moreattentive, and really listened to my hair needs. I felt comfortable with her throughout the service and was very pleased with the care she provided. Unfortunately, my experience with the front desk staff, specifically Lae and Cicily, was much less positive. At check-in, I greeted Lae and asked how she was doing, and her only response was a very stark "blessed," which immediately came across as unwelcoming. My checkout experience with Cicily was even more uncomfortable. Her greeting felt sarcastic, and she proceeded to question Diasia about the timing and cost of my service in a way that felt unnecessary and condescending, especially considering the instructor had already reviewed and signed off on the quote that was presented to me. I understand that this is a learning environment, and based on my experience with Diasia, there are clearly very talented and capable students at Paul Mitchell Dallas. However, the front desk is the first and last interaction clients have with the school, and unfortunately, those interactions made an otherwise positive appointment difficult to enjoy. Customer-facing staff should be receptive, professional, and accommodating. I would absolutely recommend Diasia based on the service she provided, but the front desk experience would make me hesitant to return.
