    Amazing Esthetics Experience with Kendall at Summit Academy!…read moreI had such an incredible experience with Kendall, a student in the Esthetics program at Summit Academy, and I truly can't say enough good things about the service, professionalism, and overall atmosphere. Kendall provided a full lineup of services for me including a facial, back treatment, and brow + lash tint, and everything was done with so much care, confidence, and knowledge. She took her time, explained what she was doing, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire appointment. The experience was not only effective, but also so relaxing--it felt like a true spa day. A huge bonus was that I also had time with another student who is a stylist, and they were able to wash and style my hair before I left. It turned into an all-day self-care experience, and I walked out feeling refreshed, confident, and completely taken care of. What really stood out to me was the level of teacher support and guidance. You can tell the instructors and leadership at Summit Academy are deeply invested in helping their students succeed. The environment is professional, supportive, and focused on delivering excellent client care while teaching real-world skills. This was such a wonderful experience that I've already booked my next appointments for waxing services and microdermabrasion. If you're considering services here, I highly recommend scheduling with Kendall--she is talented, attentive, and absolutely going to be amazing in this industry. Great service, relaxing experience, and an amazing team behind the students. Highly recommend!

    I attended Summit Salon Academy in Tacoma…read more The program felt disorganized, and I experienced that the evening class was often not given the same level of instruction or experience as the daytime class. Monthly check-ins from the owners, which were promised, did not occur as described. The daytime class would often share training or experiences that were not provided to the evening class. During my training, I also experienced inconsistency in instruction due to instructor changes and disruptions, which impacted the continuity of learning and preparation for the state licensing exam. After completing the program and becoming licensed, my experience working in the esthetics field has not aligned with the expectations presented during enrollment, particularly regarding career stability and outcomes.

    Big thumbs up for our experience at the Centralia Beauty College!…read more My two boys needed to get their hair cut and we'd been looking and searching around at places around the area that we felt comfortable with, would do a good job, and not charge an arm and a leg. I decided to call the Beauty College and got the scoop from the very helpful receptionist and decided to book their appointments. I am very glad we did. From the start, I asked and the receptionist helped me schedule both boys at the same time with side-by-side stylists that were good with kids and during a time of day that wasn't too busy (knowing that a louder and busier time would be way too overwhelming for the kids). We had Nicole and Kenzie as our stylists and both did a great job with the cuts. They were patient, kind, and took their time with the cut and made sure things were okay as they went along. They listens to me as I explained what type of cut we were wanting and to look at the sample pictures that I brought. The boys liked them both too, and said that they felt comfortable and would be good with going back to them again. The prices are great there as well. They have a tiered pricing scale depending on the level of the stylist (Level 1 is the least expensive and experienced stylist and it works up to a Level 5). Nicole and Kenzie were Level 2 (they will undoubtedly move up the scale as they work) and charge just $15 for a cut - and it was 10% off for kids. I'll certainly schedule the boys again and would recommend you give them a shot too. They offer a full slate of services, so check out my picture of their service list for other salon services that you might be needing.

    They do a good job on my hair and don't charge a lot give a senior discount and in a good part of…read moretown

    It's been several months since my last haircut, and I really needed it to be trimmed, layered, and…read morethinned for the new season. I was promptly checked in for my 3:30 PM appointment. My hair stylist Sophia was very attentive to my request and careful in washing, cutting, and styling. The instructor checked constantly and made a few small changes to my layers. I recommended thinning since my hair quickly grows thick, and Sophia immediately fixed the cut. For the quality, price, and attention to detail, the haircut was amazing. The only downside is the long appointment time (I finished near 5:30), but it was understandable since the students needed to check their plan and each step with the instructor. I would 100% come back and recommend customers here.

    Warning: I would be very cautious booking color services at the Aveda Institute…read more I arrived early for my 1 PM appointment and was initially told I wasn't even on the schedule, which immediately set a stressful tone. Once I was eventually taken in. It took over 40 minutes after the consultation for the student to begin working on my hair because they were still writing notes and preparing their sheet. The service itself felt inconsistent and poorly managed. I understand this is a training environment, but there seemed to be a lack of structure and time management throughout. My color turned out chunky and stripy, and it was very obvious that at least two different people worked on my hair because my original stylist needed assistance mid way through the coloring. One side came out significantly more orange than the other, and it honestly looked like I had months of grown-out color. After my hair was washed, I was told they "didn't have time" to finish with a blowout. Instead, I was given a card for a complimentary blow dry for another visit, which I was fine with and they said we'd do a rough dry. Since it was 6, which was closing time the instructor stepped in to "rough dry" my hair. There was no product and they did a few passes. I left with my hair about 90% wet. I was shocked that they allowed me to leave the appointment in that condition. Not until I went home and fully dried my hair was when I noticed that my hair cut was uneven. My original 1 PM appointment didn't end until around 6:15 PM. I later emailed them about the experience and, after escalating it with multiple people, they brought me back 2 days later for a correction appointment, which took about 3 hours. I'm still not fully happy with the result, but it will have to do for now while my hair recovers from being processed twice within 48 hours. Overall, I would strongly advise having very low expectations. I would not recommend getting your hair colored here. A simple trim might be okay, but even that feels like a gamble depending on who you get.
