Everyone I interacted with was professional, kind, and incredibly supportive. Mike M. is an amazing instructor. He gave me the guidance, patience, and confidence I needed to get behind the wheel, and he taught me skills I'll use for the rest of my life. Truly A++++++ in my book.

I'm not going to take the time to enumerate everything that is wrong, but I was told that the pictured piece fell off in the kiln. If that were true, there wouldn't be glaze on the surfaces that need to be re-joined. This cannot even be fixed. So in addition to doing careless work with the glaze, they were untruthful about what happened. This was a frankly a terrible experience.

Said we wanted to pickup our pieces whether they were finished or not and would finish the pieces elsewhere. The day we were coming, they called to say it was ready. One piece was glazed only halfway and in the wrong color. The other was over glazed enough so the relief is gone and they dripped another glaze on it and you can see the finger mark where they attempted to wipe it off. When we called about a refund, we were quite frustrated and were told that we needed a discussion with the instructor to figure out if they had done anything wrong. Could not be more disappointed. Will never return. Would recommend trying somewhere else if someone is considering going here.

The glaze is so thick the relief is gone.

Incorrect glaze. Only half done.

This shows that the handle was broken before glazing as the surfaces where it broke are heavily coated in glaze.

This company has been a nightmare since the moment the funds were taken out of my account! First I…read morecalled this company and asked specific questions regarding the hours of driving lessons as my child doesn't get home from school till 4pm. They informed me that their instructors all work full time jobs and that this was a part time gig for them so lessons could be taught and would be taught at 5pm or later. After weeks of not hearing anything from this company I reached out and asked what the next steps were and when my son would start his lessons. She apologized and said she would reach out to the instructor. The instructor text me and stated he would text my son that day around 4pm. He never did. So I waited another day goes by and still nothing. When I reached out to the company asking if he could get a new instructor thinking the guy just had to many lessons on his plate the lady lost it. She was very aggressive towards me telling me that maybe she should just refund me my money minus a fee. I told her I would not be paying a fee because they lacked communication and professionalism. Fast forward he finally started his lessons which never last a full hour. He would be back in 45 min. The instructor started last driving app would be 3:30pm On the last lesson I specifically asked when he would receive his certificate and the driver said after he submits his hours ect it would be mailed to me. This was at the second week of November. I waited and reached out not once, not twice but 3x and asking when I would it with no response I finally got a text a week later with a picture of it. Then when I reached out asking for an actual copy of it they stated I would have to pay $50 for it. This driving school is a joke with hostile ppl working for them.

Was told to give him a few days to contact me, if that didn't happen, I was free to call him directly. I did, and left another message. Six days later, I received a text from the instructor offering the first session the following Sunday at 8:30. On that Sunday, my son, husband and I sat waiting for his arrival. When he was 15 minutes late, I texted him because the office was closed. He replied an hour later, saying that he'd be at our house the next day at 3:00. I got him on the phone, to learn he was out of town and wrote the lesson on the wrong date in his calendar. Monday afternoons weren't possible for us so we rescheduled for the following Sunday. He did arrive that day. Texted from the street that he was here. Didn't approach the house, didn't talk to us about how the program would go. When they returned, I noticed the car in front of the house with the hood up. My son reported that they had to pull over 4 times because the car overheated. Based on timing, we scheduled the 5th lesson and official exam the same day. He successfully passed, and was told that he would receive a certificate, which the insurance company requires for the program discount. He passed the test on March 16. March 27 I sent my second unanswered email to the School address, inquiring when the certificate would arrive. They never did reply. It arrived in the mail on April 24. If I really needed my son to learn how to drive, this would have been a terrible program. Thankfully we taught him, but put him through this painful process to satisfy the insurance company. If your school doesn't have a program, I would not recommend this one.

For $90, I was looking for wars to an extended foot massage and massage chairs, both of which did not happen. You have to climb up onto the chairs and it's incredibly awkward. They do not have a lot of options when it comes to color, and not the usual OPI, Essie, etc. Overall, it gets 2 stars because my nail tech was nice enough, but not incredibly friendly.

I have worked with the best of the best master colorists and stylists, and Mandy's skill, aesthetic eye as well as her taste and knowledge of what's hip is up there with the best of them. I'd been to others before her in Shadyside and other parts of the city but they definitely couldn't compare. Mandy could definitely hang with the best of them on Fifth or Madison Ave. Trust me, there's not a better stylist or colorist in the Pittsburgh area. Are there any who as good as she is? Possibly, but definitely not better. FYI girls, she also has a cut she calls "the fake trim," where she literally takes off the absolute bare minimum if you're trying to keep your length! On top of all that, Mandy is not a diva -- if you don't like something after she is done, if you tell her she will fix it on the spot, no questions asked nor attitude. And Martin's is surprisingly inexpensive!

I especially like their body scrubs, which exfoliate and moisturize at the same time. I scrub it on myself in the shower, and then rinse, which washes off the sugar, but leaves the moisturizing shea butter. They have lip scrubs and facial scrubs, which work the same way. They also sell soaps, body and face moisturizers, room spray, a bunch of different scents of chapstick, bath bombs, and soaps, and bath bombs made especially for kids, as well as products for men, pregnant women, and some CBD products.
