When I got there I realized it was not the stylist I wanted but took a chance on her anyway (they had the same name). Paul Mitchell needs to explain the services on their website more clearly. I had no idea what a phase I or phase II was when booking. Had I known, I would have booked phase II (I believe the students are more experienced). That was my mistake which is the only reason I marked the review as a two star instead of one. On to the actual service, the student was friendly and the hair wash was nice and gentle. I told her I have thick heavy hair and I wanted lots of layers starting at my shoulders and a couple inches off with face framing bangs. Right away I could tell she didn't know where to start, which is fine. I wasn't expecting perfection and was fully prepared to walk out with some flaws. My stylist asked for guidance from the teacher there. She helped with the bangs and that's about it. The student never asked for help again and the teacher never came back. I thought it was weird that she wasn't lifting my hair and cutting layers like I usually see with a layered haircut. I thought she must be taking it slow and doing a different approach. I don't know what she was doing because she started blowing drying my hair not long after. So I thought maybe she'd cut more when it's dry. She proceeds to add a bunch of products to my hair with two other students trying to do a blow out for an HOUR. After that she asked me how I liked it, I told her it's hard to tell because it looks the same. The bangs were the only noticeable difference. I asked if she did layers and she said she did. She told me to let her know if anything's wrong they can fix it. But at this point, I didn't want to waste anymore time. Nearly two hours on that chair for little to no difference. I came in for a haircut and couldn't even get that. I would've appreciated it if the student at least tried but it seemed like she wasn't interested. She could've asked for help any of that time and the teacher could've checked up on her (they stay around the area but mainly socialize with each other or sit in empty chairs on their phones). I also did not feel comfortable with the students around gossiping about other clients, it was completely unprofessional and made me feel uncomfortable to voice my opinion. When I got home I noticed that the bangs weren't even at all once I tied my hair up. At that point I was really frustrated because the way she cut it was as easy as a YouTube tutorial cut. She never bothered to check if they were even so I had to even it out at home. The blowout also wasn't really there and all the products she put made my hair feel heavy and weighed down and a bit crunchy. I can handle a bad haircut - I have long thick hair that grows fairly quick. I'm not too picky either but to come spend two hours for a service and not receive anything is annoying to say the least.

She is an exceptional brow artist because she is careful, thoughtful and caring and skilled. I was also assured to know that she is an experienced permanent makeup instructor of over 10 years and I have seen her classroom. I was able to trust her to do my permanent brow makeup and she did an excellent job and I am forever grateful that I have beautiful brows now. I have also come to know that she is a caring and wonderful person and a delight to interact with during my treatments. I understand that some people may be interested in enrolling in the academy and are interested in a quality education, and I absolutely recommend it. I advise whoever reading my review to be very discerning about where some negative reviews may be coming from and what their intentions may be...because I have experienced nothing but the positive with both the owner and the business, and I'm speaking from personal experience and I am a satisfied and loyal client.

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.

A downside though is that the place is a bit run down, so the ambience isn't too great. But hey, my nails look bomb and the people were nice, which is more than I can say compared to a few higher-priced salons I've been to!

Bầu không khí tiêu cực do một số nhân viên tạo ra đã làm lu mờ những gì lẽ ra phải là một trải nghiệm học tập tích cực. My experience with Top Line Beauty College was extremely disappointing, largely because of one staff member, Kim. She often acts as though she runs the entire school and creates an uncomfortable environment for students. Over the years, I have heard similar concerns from numerous coworkers, classmates, and colleagues who felt they were treated unfairly or disrespectfully. Students come to beauty school to learn, grow, and build confidence in a supportive environment. Instead, many feel intimidated and afraid to speak up. A learning environment should encourage students, not make them feel fearful or anxious. Based on my experience and the experiences shared by others, I would not recommend this school. The negative atmosphere created by certain staff members overshadows what should be a positive educational experience.

So you can imagine the shock of walking into this place. The price online was different than what they told me. Twice as much. It was a very hot day and I asked, "do you have AC". They turned on a fan on and turned it toward me. They didn't have a big pedicure chair to sit in where you put your feet down into a bath of water. They had a movable thing that they sit on and then I put my feet on it. I also put my feet in a bucket of water below me. The first girl that worked on me couldn't even cut my toenails with the clippers. My nails are not difficult to cut. An older gentleman had to take over and he pinched me with the clippers. Luckily. no skin was broke. The instructor was standing there when I said, "Ouch" and she didn't even blink or even apologize.This gentleman didn't even know how to put the nail polish on so when I got home, I had to cover my nails with more polish. Not sure if it's worth going back to this place. I would pay double the price at my nail person and get better service and not have to drive so far. I was the only person getting my nails done and there was a gentleman getting a five dollar haircut. No other customers. That should've told me something. There were quite a few supervisors just sitting around and eating. One last thing, I don't know how this the school gets accredited. I think if the health department walked in, they would be closed.

The person servicing my feet used the drill bit so long that she really thinned out my nails & caused injury & intolerable pain, I almost asked her to leave those toes blank. But I also didn't want to leave with an incomplete service or take away her learning opportunity. It was extremely hard to communicate with them because of the language barrier, it was helpful when the teachers would come over & guide & also be a translator when these issues arose. The vibe overall was fine, the seating where we were guided was pretty uncomfortable set up wise, I felt like I was bending like a pretzel and was very unstable. My manicure came with my gel stuck to my fingers and lots of cuts, bubbles in my nails, and even hair. The sanitization wasn't the best either, tools were continually dropped and continued to be used. I also noticed dirty gloves on clean surfaces. I'd come back to try other things but I'm a bit unsettled by my nails experience. I also came aware that I would be getting services by students, so I completely understand the learning curves. I think the teachers could've stepped in more and supported, guided, corrected, and maybe even shown or done the procedure partially to give more guidance.
