If you are concidering a career in the beauty industry, this is an excellent school. Marinello…read moreoffers more than just hair. There are a variety of courses to take. I graduated with the knowledge to be a professional nail technician. It was one of the best experiences of my life. Before I became a student, I went to Marinello School of Beauty for my hair cuts for years. The school offers a lot of spa services, not just hair. Services can take longer than at a salon because these are students. The atmosphere is professional and the instructors are there not just to guide the students but insure you are a satisfied customer. I continue to go to Marinello because I know it's important for students to have clients to learn.

I guess they have a rule there if you complain about the results you're banned from the school!…read moreFirst complaint was an instructor who left me and Miss Karen had to fix it over the course of three visits. This was years ago. Second complaint another student left me while she went to the Finance office and Miss Karen was livid about it. Third complaint was a few weeks ago. I had asked for low and high lights and ended up with grayish tones throughout my hair so upon calling that Monday to ask if they could fix it, Miss Marie told me it's a school and I said what does that have to do with anything so I went in on Thursday and they put a blonde toner in and of course it was better than nothing compared to the way I left so beware if you even speak up about the service because you're not pleased, you will be asked to never come back, this is very unprofessional and if it's a school, then the students would have to learn just as if they worked in a real Salon, etc.. I had never left a review before because I didn't think it was necessary. I thought the School was handling it, but then I was told they were taking notes about me very childish and unprofessional upon trying to call the owner Mr. G who owns a very successful business in Rocky Hill he never returned my phone calls just had his reception take information and never got back to me! I also left an email for Martin G and he never responded. I'm not the first do your due diligence and gore reviews all over other platforms. Miss Marie has zero class and had Miss Pam tell me upon me leaving that I cannot come back there!

However, supervisory etiquette often fails to reflect professional standards. The Crown Act should be embedded in all practices. Another supervisor's comment that a roller was "pissing" her off and blaming a parent for a child's hair condition was inappropriate. When I raised concerns about questionable conduct, I was labeled rude. Respect, not blame, should guide service. Lead by example & inform yourself about disclosures submitted upon scheduling before accusing customers for shortcomings. Not the back to school mommy and me anticipated.

From the owner: Mansfield Beauty Schools has a history dating back to 1909 at 125 Tremont Street, Boston. The…read morefounder, Dr. Katherine Mansfield, was a practicing chiropodist who on a pleasure trip to Paris, France, had been exposed to innovations in hairdressing. Upon her return, she started giving demonstrations and lectures. Thus, the humble beginnings of Mansfield Beauty Schools. In 1955 our expansion began, with many locations including Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1958, and Quincy, Massachusetts, in 1962. In 1981, Mansfield Beauty Schools, under the ownership and vision of Daniel and Helene Dorian , became independent of the other schools and continue today in that vision. In order to maintain its position in the forefront of cosmetology education, the policy of Mansfield Beauty Schools remains one of involvement and participation in the Massachusetts Association of Cosmetology Schools, the American Association of Cosmetology Schools, the Massachusetts Financial Aid Association and the National Direct Student Loan Coalition.

I was in CT for a bit so decided to make an appointment while I was around. I got a full head of highlights. My hairdresser was quiet but nice. I found it odd I wasn't asked how light I wanted to go, especially when the instructor came over and asked her if I wanted dimensions or not. I was waiting to see what her answer was cause she didn't ask me! I answered myself. Anyways, the coloring came out very well. I like it, I get lots of compliments. I have never encountered anyone before who is so aggressive with hair. I have thick hair, it tangles but nothing crazy. My hair wasn't brushed before the bleach. The teasing of my hair was a bit rough but when it came time to washing the bleach out of my hair and brushing it I have never been on so much pain. I had unintentional tears coming out of my eyes, and was gripping my chair. My hair was being ripped from my head. The blow drying with the brush was also very painful, almost walked out with my wet hair. Never have I ever experienced anyone this aggressive with my hair. My scalp was sore for 2 days after. Will be cautious to return.

I never thought I was capable of learning as much as I did in such a short period of time. It has been a journey I could never forget, a journey that I have come close to throwing away numerous times. It's an amazing feeling having someone know your potential in the field way before you do. They say only God knows what the future holds, but my Ms. Green has shown me the light leading to the future numerous times and in numerous different ways. I'm so thankful to have someone that knows just about everything in this field and knows a solution to every problem. As I prepare for my state boards, I will hear Ms. Green's voice in the back of my head with every question, not only explaining why one answer is correct, but also why the rest are not. As I prepare to be pushed it to the real world of this industry, I will keep in mind I will not be alone because I know I have a teacher to call on through everything. You are not only an amazing stylist, you are an amazing mentor, and amazing person, an amazing leader, and most importantly a strong woman that has molded numerous other amazing stylist to be their OWN stylist. I can not express what an honor it is to have you in my life. You have made my experience worthwhile at Marinello, and any student who will enroll here whose main focus is their future, will understand the value and magnitude of your teaching and knowledge from beauty to the hard truths of life. Thank you for allowing me to see my worth and being patient with the mistakes I have made and will make.
