I was scheduled last minute with Rebekah. I was pretty nervous because I've had some traumatic haircuts in the past and I expressed that to her as soon as I sat in the chair. Don't be fooled by her quiet nature and delicate touch. Rebekah is an absolute BEAST behind the scissors! The teacher Mrs Marie was knowledgeable, very professional and very patient. all I can say is....WOW... I couldn't be happier with the result. Rebekah should be so proud of herself. Her precision, attention to detail, and patience blew me away. If anything, I just hope she steps into her confidence even more because her talent is undeniable. If you get the chance to book with her...DO IT. You won't regret it!

DO NOT ENROLL I was enrolled as a Cosmetology student…read more Financial aid wasn't a hassle for me. I stayed on top of my paperwork and felt the need to do because I had already experienced FINANCIAL AID FRAUD years ago when I attended Everest Institute(after 6 years of fighting with student loan entities, I finally got my student loans discharged.) But from that experience I pretty much knew what to look for. While enrolled there were issues with students being able to obtain specific documents. I ended up calling state board on their behalf and stare board told me exactly what to say and which code to quote to obtain documents. The individual I spoke with stated that by LAW Cherri was REQUIRED to provide us with the paperwork upon request. She gave me mine without incident, but refused to with Este and Combo students. I recall another situation where a student withdrew after being there for a VERY short period, not even enough time to have used much Financial aid. When the student contacted state board, I believe, for clarity, they informed her she owed for a tablet or IPad which she never received. She provided them with the serial number for the chromebook she had and they revealed to her that Cherri had sent invoices for tablets or IPads instead of the chrome books. Pure fraud. Even in them knowing, they did nothing. To add, my 1st day there as a student, I was worked on a mannequin practicing flat iron methods and my comb melted. I ended having to replace my combs that day at the Rite in near the school in Squirrel Hill and then eventually buying better supplies at a Sally's. I made sure to use my bank card for a paper trail. I also purchased my own professional nail kit and hand and it wasn't taken off my student loans so I emailed Sara and Cherri for it to be removed. That part of my financial aid was corrected 2 days after I reached out to them. As for the Squirrel Hill location, there were no vents and neighboring business complained of the smell of monomer daily. Illegal There weren't enough teachers for all the students that were there. Illegal The equipment and supplies, the majority, were outdated, cheap materials and not durable, and broke. 2 of the sinks were down for what seemed like months. Illegal We didn't have properly working restrooms and at one point no restroom at all. Unsanitary When state board came to Squirrel Hill location, they gave her so much time to get the school up to par. She had the carpets painted, NEVER had proper insulation or vents installed, just bought a fan and moved the nail area to the back of the school, cleaned the sinks out that were broke, but still hadn't gotten them fixed by the time I left, and the list goes on. Just about every student there paid for their own supplies out of pocket because the school either didn't have them or they were expired. Cherri just about bullied teachers into spending more time in the office to help her cook her books so half the time we were on our own during the day. I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone.

They do blowout boot camp and it's basically the only thing they really do, do. The one teacher Katie literally stinks so bad. I don't understand how you can hire someone for a beauty program who can't even keep up with their health. It's so bad respectfully you gotta plug your nose. The teachers don't even do their hair. They look a mess which is crazy to me. The front desk girl they had while I was there, the red head (didn't care to remember her name she doesn't deserve to be remembered) . Good god. She needed to be fired asap. She would legit argue with us like she had a right. She didn't. She was so snotty and everyone hated her. Austin tried but he needs to maybe try to start being a teacher and not our best friends. They force clients on you and then say they will help you but then have 2 teachers out there who when they do help you, make it look horrible and god. When it comes to toners good luck. They don't know nothing. They hide the bleach so you can't practice with it on the floor. the environment is so hard to want to stay. If they want to have a good place where you actually learn and people want to actually be there, then they need more people like the Ashley. She actually takes the time and shows you exactly what to do step by step. Being in a HUGE class like they do makes it so hard to focus. Goodluck. You pay all that money to just count down the days to be done.

I have had wonderful experiences with the evening team and cannot say enough good things about…read morethem! Everyone is welcoming, professional, hardworking, and genuinely passionate about what they do. The atmosphere is warm, positive, and collaborative, and the evening educator is exceptionally hospitable, caring, kind, encouraging, and supportive. She creates an environment where the students can thrive and where clients feel valued and comfortable. Ms. Cat/Kat did my hair in month of May, and although I only asked for two cornrows, she went above and beyond and delivered a beautiful and creative style in less than an hour. Her skill, attention to detail, and artistic touch truly impressed me. She is talented, efficient, and has such a pleasant personality. Today, Moni did my wash and set, and she did an outstanding job. My hair was very tangled, but she handled it with so much patience, gentleness, and professionalism. She took her time and transformed my hair into gorgeous curls...I honestly looked like a different person by the end! Moni is incredibly sweet, dedicated, and hardworking. Even while expecting a baby, she continues to serve clients with grace, kindness, and excellence, which I deeply admire. All of the students are beautiful inside and out, respectful, eager to learn, and committed to providing excellent service. The evening team consistently exceeds expectations and makes every visit enjoyable. Their talent, compassion, and work ethic deserve to be recognized. I highly recommend them and look forward to coming back again! An amazing team that truly goes above and beyond!

I was able to get a reverse balayage (darker roots using my natural color as highlight), a trim and style for $40 including tip. Tips must be in cash since the stylists are students-- I tipped my stylist with the Cash App and she was fine with that. I'm really happy with the results and plan to return-- I liked feeling like I helped some students get experience while still getting a service I'd pay at least double for at any other salon. I'd recommend giving it a chance!
