I truly can't think of anything that could have gone better. This is a school and if you have never…read morebeen to a beauty school please know that services can take longer than a traditional salon and it can be a hectic busy environment. That being said I know these things and the longer time for service is just more "me" time. This was my first visit to this specific location and I went in for a root touch up. DANIELLAAG was friendly and did a great job. Asking for help if needed and taking guidance when given. I felt comfortable in her chair. Added bonus is the valet service they provide. Very friendly and had my car waiting as I walked out which was top notch service in my opinion. I had a tip already out but now wish I would have tipped them more. Will definitely return when back in the area. Can't beat the prices for salon quality service!!

Overall I understand the students here are still learning, but based on my experience they had no…read moreidea what they were doing. They repeatedly told me they had not been trained in most things yet. I got a color and cut here. The color was not good, I got a simple black but they didn't dye the bottom of my head so the top is black and the bottom is dark brown. I asked them to put dye there and they said they didn't need to, which was incorrect. They also got some color on my ear which I had to wash off myself. Example of them not being trained enough: The stylist initially tried cutting 4 inches off my hair when I asked for a 1/2 inch trim. She also kept teasing my hair and then trying to comb it out, then making comments about how tangly it is. But teasing hair is what makes it tangled! When she tried brushing it out my hair broke due to the force. I literally had to tell her to stop or else I would leave. She hadn't even started cutting, but a lot of my hair was on the ground from it being broken off by her brushing. On a side note...their receptionist was also very difficult to work with. She said my handwriting was too small and made me write down my info 3 times. I am not sure what the issue is but she had a lot of difficulties reading even when I wrote in large caps. I had to call another receptionist over. The second receptionist apologized telling me the other receptionist lost her glasses and that's why she had trouble reading it. That's fine! But had the original receptionist said that, instead of blaming me for it, we could've handled it better.

I came to this location to get a deep conditioning treatment followed by a wash & set... I have…read morevery long and thick hair so I figured it would be good practice for the students as I've been to school salons before... I had visited the week before to get the info and prices... I returned the following week as I was told I'd need about 2-2.5 hours there... There was a heavy set man who assisted me and inquired about the pricing from an older brunette lady who told him the price... I actually was given a higher price than what I pay in my nor al salon for a wash & set which was surprising for a beauty school ($60) I entered and first impression is hiw old and deteriorated it looked... I almost wanted to walk out as the seats were in horrible condition and everything was either broken, falling apart or just looked so old as of it should be thrown out... this place needs a huge face-lift especially with the tuition that they are charging for such shambles... The students were just sitting around and talking... I was directed towards a very sweet woman but she barely spoke English so she didn't understand me... She proceeded to do my shampoo and she was great and then they used a basic salon conditioner as a "deep condition" as it smelled like cherries which is a dead giveaway and I had been informed that the conditioner was of a higher quality but it was not... she then placed me under the dryer for 15 mins and then removed the leave in and took me to her work area to do my rollers... she was about to put the rollers in without putting anything at all in my hair until I asked her about it and she went and got someone bc she didn't understand me... finally after her struggling to put one roller, another student came and helped her... she seemed to know what she was doing but the rollers were not tight and they were spritzing the hair with lottabody setting spray but the hair wasn't soaked which it needs to be when applying rollers... finally she finishes and puts the net and they try to fit me under a dryer that fits the rollers... 1.5 hours later ... im told they're done ans they take them out... the hair is not set at all and looks crazy when all the rollers are taken out... I tell them that I'm not at all happy about this and I finally settle for a blow dry by the one student who did my rollers... she seemed to know how to do a blow dry but then there was another student working on the other side of my head who was only blowing out mid shaft to the tips and never at the root so all of my hair was lumpy on the while right side when they tried to say okay you're done... not until I was like ummm, my whole right side of my head is all lumps and kinks so the girl blew it out... 4 HOURS LATER and there was not one teacher or professional helping these girls out or knew what to do... the older lady just kept saying well shee doesn't want to stay or there is nothing we can do about it... mot an apology, nothing... just a shoulder shrug, like oh well... Wow! Horrible experience and location... these girls are getting robbed because that's not a school where they're not leaning anything... The older folks need to have a better bedside manner to thise coming and spending their money here l, especially of you're charging $60 for no one knowing what they're doing. Do better by your students...

I went here as a hair model for a long layered haircut and I had a great experience. Sofia did an…read moreamazing job and she was very detailed with my haircut. She really listened to what I was looking for and even was willing to make a few adjustments after she had dried my hair. Everything from the washing of my hair, which was very relaxing to the gorgeous blowout she gave me was phenomenal. The only downside of the experience is that it does take a while because there is some waiting for the instructor to give feedback ( i.e. I was in there from 9 AM to 12 PM for my haircut) but Sophia was so easy to talk to the time flew by. I can tell all the students really take their time with haircuts and I would come back again!

PLEASE READ. STAY FAR AWAY!…read more I don't leave negative reviews without a valid reason. Unfortunately, my experience with this school was extremely disappointing and misleading. MISLEADING ADMISSION PRACTICES: Before enrolling, admissions was very attentive and checked in constantly. Once I signed up, that communication stopped almost immediately. They will tell you whatever they need to in order to get you enrolled, including claiming you can walk away freely within 30 days if the program isn't for you. This is not true. Despite dropping the program and confirming multiple times that I was no longer enrolled, penalties were still applied and a loan continued in my name which I am now forced to fight off. They (Erick Madan) will pretend to not know they had said conversion and then they will say it's a misunderstanding to try to scrape any kind of money from you. FINANCIAL AID ISSUES: The financial aid department offers very limited help beyond pushing you through FAFSA. When issues arise, responses are vague, generic, or avoided altogether. LACK OF SUPPORT AFTER ENROLLMENT: Once enrolled, student support drops off significantly. Staff who were previously responsive become difficult to reach and you are left chasing unanswered texts and emails. While there may be a few good individuals, there are also toxic admissions reps (Erick Madan) who negatively affect the experience. POOR EDUCATIONAL VALUE: The cost of this program is not justified. They poach on people wanting to jump into the aviation world by being the only known school in North NJ. The other schools are either in Queens NY or Upstate NY, both hours away and with wait times to get in. Much of the instruction consists of material that can easily be found for free through YouTube, Dauntless, Prepware, and other self-study resources. Paying around $50,000 to sit in a classroom and watch youtube is not worth it. MY FINAL ADVICE: I strongly recommend looking into an apprenticeship before considering this school. You'll gain valuable experience / knowledge and get paid while learning. With proper logbook sign-offs, you can test for your A&P license after 30 months (or 18 months for one part of either the Airframe or Powerplant license). You'll come out of the apprenticeship with a SOLID 30 months of real world experience rather than the 21 months of school debt and no guarantee of getting your license if you simply don't pass your exams which you have to pay out of pocket and they are not cheap, they are at least $1000's of dollars altogether if not more. The opportunities are out there and I am lucky enough to have come across one thus my reason for dropping the program. Please take your time to research and reach out to companies about taking on an apprenticeship opportunity. Don't let this FOR PROFIT school SCAM you. Yes few students have come out of the program licensed and into great jobs in the field BUT they are the exception not the rule.
