TAKE THIS COURSE! Even if you already know makeup, you will surely learn more as you go through all of the mini masterclasses and learning from Ale & Hector! It's been a blast and I loved everyone I got to work with during the course!

I am giving this place 3 out of 5 stars One star because the…read moreplace was clean and organized and set up well with proper stations and seats etc. Another star because I like that there is a store at the front and the front staff is great. The other Star because I appreciate the owner is an actual talented makeup artist and has over 20 years of experience. I can't give a full five stars because the program was set up really weird. I understood it was a Sunday class (great sounds convenient) It was like 5 consecutive weeks in a row with a two week break in between but each class I understood was Sundays from 8:30am to 5pm or 9 to 6 (or something to that affect with an hour lunch) BUT literally I DID NOT get out of there until after 10 PM sometimes midnight, not only did this inconvenience my whole family (and I have little kids that are in elementary school) it threw off our whole week. I might add, being in a class for that long as a student ...I wasn't even retaining any of the information after hour six. I don't think this type of learning is beneficial for anybody (in my opinion). I think the classes should be broken up and spread out and maybe no more than six hours per class. It would be even great to do like a four hour class. After that all the information I learned I did not retain, unfortunately. And if you try to leave early, they made it feel like a big deal and it was frowned upon. It was a stressful bummer. Other than that, I think it was a great program. I like the products that they used that I bought from them When I signed up, I understood the cost of the program was one price and then the kit was an extra thousand, but it was "optional"...BUT when you get there, it's very obvious that you have to use the products that they have you buy from them. I saw one girl bring her kit, but she wasn't using it. They asked her to buy their kit and use that one. We had to use all the makeup that they provided which was great Makeup. (when you buy the kit, it comes together you don't have to purchase anything individually, which I thought was great). BUT if you're on a budget, this is probably not the program for you. My total investment was around $4500. I attended in Aug 2024. I like that at the end we got a certificate and they had a little graduation that was really fun. Also a few times they bought us pizza or burritos which was nice and unexpected. I appreciated that as well.

Oh if only I could give 100 stars !! I was taught by Miss Ruby years ago. I remember when I took my…read morestate board exam I was disappointed that my test wasn't much harder, hahaha. I was more than prepared, and with my license I hit the floor running. Like Lovella (who also made a review) I too, and several other former students, have gone on to open our own beauty salons & hire employees to continue our expansion. Our businesses are thriving, you can do the research. All of us that have gone on to be successful have nothing but extraordinary things to say about Miss Ruby bc she was the one who pushed & helped us to be as great as we can be. I personally have seen many students come & go while I was a student, whether bc they were graduating or bc they were dropping. Miss Ruby is very passionate about teaching skin care. This is her life and for students to come in & not take the course seriously is insulting & a waste of her time and other students time. There are many young immature girls that enroll & these are the ones who complain and create drama and bad reviews. She does not care about the money and honestly she doesn't care for peoples opinions who do not take this course seriously. UNDERSTAND, YOU ARE WORKING ON PEOPLES FACES!! The tiniest mistake, and you can burn people, scar people, seriously injure, or even kill someone bc you are not paying attention to things they are allergic to or the fact they have a heart condition. If you are not ready to take this class & career seriously, Please, look elsewhere. So please take this into consideration upon doing your research for schools & reading reviews. If you ARE ready to make your Esthetics dream a reality, then this is the perfect place for you! You will see how amazing you can be when you're pushed to your fullest potential! Highly recommended!!

So to start off the staff is kind, but I was not happy with my eyebrow tint experience…read more I wasn't given a patch test nor a consent to explain the potential risks of eyebrow tinting. I had a super bad allergic reaction which left my eyebrows now scarred & I have lost hair and chunks of my skin. I have had my eyebrows tinted twice before and this never happened either.

I wanted to follow up on my post and change the review. After the below review I left, the Owner…read morereached out directly to me to give her sincere apology for my experience and to remedy the situation. She not only refunded me, but in addition tinted my eyebrows to make them look a bit thicker. More than that, she gave me her information and committed to helping me going forwars until I felt confident about my eyebrows and trusted her business again. This is the definition of caring about your customers!!! . Thank you! (Left for context) If I could give half a star or less I would! This was the MOST terrible experience! I went in with a full set of eyebrows and came out with this!!! I told the lady I wanted Natural just clean up, and she took it upon herself to just destroy my eyebrows! And when I shared my dissatisfaction all i got was a "oh" and then she still charged me! Because I was well taught I layed and even left an indeserved tip! But I am frightened to stepmoutside because i look like a complete idiot! I look stupid and I dont like to draw my eyebrow but I wont have a choice.
