The "future professionals" take their time and are so attentive. It's reassuring to know they're being carefully guided and supervised by licensed stylists every step of the way. It is a training program so keep that in mind when you set your expectations. If something doesn't feel or look right at the end of your appointment, speak up rather than just writing a negative Yelp review. It helps on both sides. We've found that the students are all ready and willing to make adjustments if asked. Our mom always leaves feeling beautiful and confident, and the savings make her even happier. The 50% senior discount on hair services is so generous and says a lot about how the company values that demographic! Extra special thanks to Michelle at the front desk, who keeps everything running smoothly. She's organized, kind, and sets the tone for such a positive experience every time!

I attended the James Albert School for my Estheticians License and thought the experience was…read moregreat! I am in my 40's and working full-time so I attended school part-time. My teacher was Ms. Asmi who is at the beautiful campus in Fullerton. I liked the fact that Ms. Asmi is fair with the students and is consistant in the rules of what she expects of each student so that everyone feels equal. Not only does she give individual attention to students but she also encourages a team effort. In my experience with Ms. Asmi everyone got along great! We had fun learning and we worked hard so that we were prepared to pass the State Board Test as well as service clients who came to the school in a professional manner. She goes through the book chapter by chapter and points out everything that could be asked on the State Board test so you can highlight it. (I knew all the answers for the written test at state board, except for 3!) Ms. Asmi is easy to follow when training the students on the different procedures and you feel confident and ready to be a qualified estitician when you graduate. I have had many facials from fancy spa's that cost $120.00 and I cannot tell the difference between their facial and the ones Ms. Asmi teaches! At the salon they use quality facial products from Dermalogica and Murrad which I recieved a certificate for knowing all the different facial techniques. To pass the Practical Test for State Board Ms. Asmi has posted up on YouTube 10 short videos demonstrating the different procedures that you will need to perform and how to do it. All I did was study these video's, take notes and I passed! You can find the videos on YouTube my searching for Ms Asmi, James Albert School. For the State Board Practical Test you will need to rent a kit. I rented mine from Farah's Smart Rental Kit in Irvine, CA. The kit was so well organized and I know that this played a big part in my passing the Practical Test. I did look at the other Kit Companies and it was so confusing. She was the same price as the other Kit Companies and gave me a free white jacket. 949.231.2628 - Ms. Asmi has her phone number! There are different fun contests that Ms. Asmi does using the different techniques we learn such as Makeup Contests. We had several guest speakers that came to the school on different subjects that was interesting. We also participated in the Anaheim Parade hat Ms. Asmi organized where James Albert (Yea! There is a REAL James Albert!) recieved an award from the President of the United States for his contribution to charity. The award is up at the Costa Mesa, CA Salon! James Albert himself actually does travel to the different schools to train the Cosmetology Students and I was able to sit in on a talk that he was giving to the students about attitude, goals and how to create a business. He is VERY charismatic, a wonderful artist and a savy business owner! Students are lucky to have him as a teacher. Many of his client are well known in the community as well as many celebrities hair and you can get your hair done at his Salon in Newport Beach. He also has his own line of James Albert product that are wonderful. Theres a reason why the school is called; "James Albert!" Nothing is perfect and if you are in a situation that you are unhappy about, I suggest you write a letter addressed to James Albert and mail it certified mail to the corportation in Corona, CA stating what is happening. James Albert has regular meetings with the teachers and is very swift in solving any issues and is very fair to everyone. When a esthetician student graduates from school, Ms. Asmi will let us throw a graduation party. At my graduation I had a "Princess Party" with paper tiara's, food, cake, boa, music, party games with prizes! She will let you invite your friends if you like and we had a blast! Check out this school in Fullerton and say "Hi" to Ms. Asmi and James Albert for me! : - )

Thank you Erica and her team on my lash extensions…read more I contacted the business and Erica replied promptly w/ a time slot that worked with my hectic schedule. She had advised that Anna would be the tech. When I came in, I was greeted by Anna who was super friendly and nice. After filling out some paperwork, it was time to get it done! Anna asked what kind of style and length I had in mind. She took her time and gave me different options on what would look best for my eye shape and how to take care of the lashes after. During the service, she would periodically asked how I was doing and if there was any discomfort. I didn't have any and as a matter of fact, I kind of fell asleep for a bit (too relaxed haha). After about an hour later, I sat up and was very impressed w/ the results. It took a little time to get use to since I haven't had extensions for a while, but after 15 or so minutes, it felt fine. I've gotten plenty of compliments from my gfs. It used to take about 20 minutes to get ready in the morning and now, it's about half which is so nice! Thank you again Vbrow and Beauty.

The true character of a business is revealed when concerns arise and mistakes happen, and based on my experience, Fox Microblading Academy fell short in several key areas. From the start, I felt pressured to leave a positive review before even receiving what I paid for as a student. After looking further into other reviews, I noticed that I was not alone in this experience--several others have shared similar concerns. The sign-up process is handled by Alan, the business owner, but once payment is made, all communication is handed off to Maritza, who oversees the training. Alan's role is mostly limited to IT matters, meaning there is little long-term accountability or direct support from him. This structure left me feeling misled about the level of involvement and guidance I would receive. The training itself was extremely disappointing and did not provide the hands-on experience I was expecting. While I anticipated learning practical skills, Maritza controlled most of the procedure on my model, leaving me with very little opportunity to gain real experience. My role was reduced to filling in a few lines, which did not give me the confidence I needed to move forward in this field. Additionally, my model was unhappy with the final shape--something that was outside of my control. We are looking for removal which is an extra cost to fix the problem!!!! Maritza's teaching approach did not align with what I would expect from a professional instructor. When I raised concerns, I did not feel I received constructive guidance. Instead, her responses came across as defensive rather than supportive. In my experience, a great educator should help students grow, but I did not feel that level of mentorship in this program. After multiple attempts to address my concerns through email, I received no response for over two months. When I eventually disputed the charge with my bank, I was shocked to see that in her response to my financial institution, Maritza characterized me unfairly, making accusations that I believe were completely unjustified. Another issue I encountered was the discrepancy between the advertised learning environment and the actual setup. The academy has since moved to a much smaller location, but their promotional materials still depict a more polished space. This difference was disappointing, as it did not match my expectations based on their marketing. For $2,499, I expected high-quality education, mentorship, and ongoing support. Instead, I left feeling underprepared and unsupported. **There are many other academies that provide structured training, hands-on experience, and continued mentorship--essential factors for success in this industry. For anyone serious about microblading, I strongly recommend researching other programs to ensure you receive the training and support you need.
