You sign a waiver and the cosmetology students get guidance from instructors as needed. I asked for cut suggestions and styling tips based on my hair type and they gave me some great info. My hair looks amazing! Lilli excels at haircuts! You can street park or find a nearby lot or garage. I parked in a garage at 501 A St Ste 101 and pre-paid $6.50 for 3 hours through SpotHero. It is otherwise scan to pay & park. There is also an Ace parking lot right next to the building. The space is busy with students doing haircuts and dyeing hair for clients but it is clean and welcoming. I'd definitely return for low-priced cosmetology services.

I met a young girl that is a student here and she asked if I would like to get a haircut, sure. I was staying at the Marriott and I walked here. You need to have time to come here, they ask you as well. I had 2 hours for a haircut, wash, and blow dry. The student meets with you and asks questions like your hair type, texture, what you are hoping to accomplish on your visit. And then you meet with the instructor as well. This is Paul Mitchell so they will ask if you want products. I am not a Paul Mitchell product fan, so I said no right away. I am a Redken girl. I have baby fine hair with a wavy curl. It can be a challenge to cut. I wanted long layers with a side swept bang. Cost: $16 for a haircut, wash, and style. Wow, you cannot beat that. I gave my young girl $10 tip. What a great price! Haircut: My student was newer so each cut she looked, spoke to the instructor and then cut. I am not as particular because it is hair. If a mistake is made, it will grow back, not a big deal. If you are particular this might not be the place for you. Each cut was thinking, speak to instructor, and then cut. The instructor explained the challenges of cutting my hair to my student, which I also learned some new things about my hair texture and challenges. Then the wash and blow dry. My hair is fine and using a smoothing shampoo and conditioner made it even more slick and more work to style. But my style came out great and it was bouncy and I got so many compliments. Now it has been over a month that I got the cut, my hair is growing in quite nicely.

DO NOT COME IF YOU HAVE THICK HAIR! YOU GET FOR YOU PAY FOR…read more I rarely leave negative reviews, but this haircut was genuinely disappointing. I came because of the good reviews and it was $25. But this salon seems to primarily cater to East Asian hair (it's obvious they don't have experience with non East Asian hair). I came in with a clear reference photo and explained what I wanted, but the final result looks nothing like the reference. The haircut is blocky, uneven, and poorly blended, with very noticeable inconsistencies in thickness throughout my hair. I have thick hair, and instead of being shaped or layered properly, it feels like chunks were taken out randomly. Some sections are overly bulky while others are strangely thin, which makes the haircut look unbalanced and sloppy. My bangs are especially bad. They look uneven and messy, honestly like something I could have done myself at home. They don't frame my face at all and make the haircut look even more amateur. What really concerns me is the technique used. The stylist straightened my hair before cutting it and never sprayed it with water at any point. That should have been a warning sign. Because of this, the haircut was not done in a way that allows the hair to fall naturally. When I was still in the chair and my hair was styled, it looked "okay," which is why I tipped. But once I washed my hair at home and let it dry naturally, all the issues became obvious. A good haircut should look decent even without styling, this one absolutely does not. The overall work feels rushed, careless, and unfinished. There was no attention to blending or balance, and it's clear that the stylist was not comfortable working with my hair type. This salon seems to cater primarily to thin, straight East Asian hair, and if you have thick hair, I strongly recommend going elsewhere unless you're prepared to pay for a corrective cut afterward. I regret coming here and regret tipping based on how it looked styled. Now that I've seen how it actually wears day to day, I can confidently say I won't be returning.

5 hrs for French Pedicure and Gel X Manicure. 5 hours!…read more My complaint is the following. The fact that I endured a 5 hour ordeal of students practicing on me, you would think at some given point the instructor would step in to complete the service , let alone making me pay for this horrendous experience where 5 hrs were wasted of my day. In fact: this horrendous service, in which I received gel X lasted for only 3 days rather than 3 weeks. Until this day I can't believe I had the patience and determination to stay until my nails were completed for 5 hrs. Which in fact the instructor had the audacity to tell me midway the service with few nails on only - you can comeback tomorrow. Quite unbelievable but yet wasn't able to step in to correct the students work. My humble suggestion! Do not let students practice on clients without prior knowledge given to them by practice hrs on mannequins and theory lessons. Speechless. To make matters worse. The instructor came to me, and offered 50% off the full service price. Which I thought was the minimum they could do, after they have let 3 students practice on me for 5 hrs. However, while wanting to pay - she had the audacity to discuss with me the final price as the 50% was only applicable for the gel x not pedicure. It was my fault to begin with to enter this establishment and stay during this whole ordeal. I should have just left quiet when I noticed how the service started. I have never tried to use services from a beautify school, but while in the area I decided to try it out. NEVER AGAIN. Again, I was there from 11-4pm on a Friday. Nails started falling off one after another on the following Monday.
