I visited Xtylo Beauty College, and I was really impressed! This place is a cosmetology school, so…read moreall services are done by students. Which means everything is super affordable. Just keep in mind that they're still learning, but they're closely supervised. When I went, it was pretty packed (which says a lot about how popular it is). I got a scalp treatment and a haircut, and my student stylist, Shey, was amazing. She was confident, careful, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the process. I left feeling relaxed and with noticeably healthier looking hair.

She removed some tools from what looked like a personal makeup bag, obviously not sterilized. I requested alcohol be sprayed on them before starting. She poured a foot bath but never put my feet into it. Filed and pushed back cuticles, did not trim cuticles, asked if I wanted lotion. No polish offered, when I asked about basic lacquer (not gel) was told that is extra. I cancelled the manicure.

I can't say enough how happy I am with the students abilities to do such a great job. Leanna, did an amazing job. I was highly satisfied. Not to mention my hair came out just how I wanted it if not better. Leanna was very professional, knowledgeable and had great costumer service, Definitely plan to go back to her Thank-you very much! See you soon.

coming from a former student, i attended this school for about 4 months before i dropped because it…read morewas too confusing and draining but not in the academic way. The teacher i had was great. She always answered my questions and was great at educating. It was specifically financial aid and students whom were the reason i dropped this school. The girls in this school are absolutely draining, every single day there was drama (which was expected in a school of 99% girls) but it wasn't just the students, the teachers, the staff- literally everyone always having drama to talk about. And coming from someone who had a bad high school experience, it just felt like i was back except it was women of all ages. Trying to stay motivated to come to school was a struggle when i hear all the other girls complaining and whinnying about coming to a school THEY signed up for. They were never pleased with anything. Any activities the staff wanted to do (although were never coordinated correctly EVER) the students just complain. I also joined October of 2025 , my first day was i guess mid way semester and was most confusing as ever. no one told me what to do, where anything was, where to go. there was no guidance from anyone and it was exhausting having to ask where everything was every 5 minutes. no one told me about procedure cards, remaking paper or physical tests or other side work until i picked up on it about a month in and had to ask myself. Finally, when i had enough of this i dropped January of this year, i went through about 5 different people just to figure out who i could get dropped through. explained to why to all of them (til this day had no clue why i had to do that) then finally reached "Financial Aid" Katie. she told me about the fees and what so, i agreed. Obviously still had to pay them some amount of money but i was not expecting to pay them almost $4K for the 4 months i came to class. This was not the cherry on top. I look into my fafsa account and see I owe TSAOB $2k ON TOP of the $4k. Me and my mom are panicking thinking they are trying to take even more money from us, not putting the $4k into the system. I try calling the school, no one answers. I text Katie asking for a email copy of receipt, (image 1) she leaves me on seen. mind you i just left her office that day. I keep trying to call the company, the school but im not getting answers from anyone for about a week. I call their office they say Katie will get back to me in the next day, two weeks go by i call again, they say she will get back to me, another week goes by. I decided to go TO the school with my mom. We have a short discussion with katie and she offers to have a "phone call"??. We obviously say no because this is an in person discussion. She says she will email my ledger and text me to set an appointment. going onto (image 2) I once again have to message this lady because me and my mom are stressing thinking they stole our money. Ms.Katie does not send my ledger till later that week and ONLY sent it because my mom called the office and told her to get back in touch or else we would go above them. At last me and my mom can compare documents JUST TO FIND OUT they were not stealing money. Katie offered to set an appointment and to this day has still not responded. This school worried me and my mother for three months thinking they just wanted more money. If only Ms.Katie had sent me my recipes the first time we asked none of this stress would've happened. I would've never attended this school if i knew all of this would happen. But then again, this is my experience. (Allegedly.)

Grethel was my stylist. She did an amazing job with coloring my short hair. She made sure I was…read morecomfortable at all times. The instructor was also very good at explaining the coloring process and assisting to get the proper results.

There are lots of stations but that is understandable for a school. They have 4 supervising teachers over groups of students. I came in for a haircut: trim my ends ($12) and I had a coupon for a scalp treatment. They gave me an estimated time of 1 hour and 45 minutes for both treatment. I was seated at 10:30 and was done by 12:50 pm. Lily did an incredible job with my scalp treatment, haircut and blow dry. Her superviser had a great recommendation about the amount to trim to give my hair the healthiest look.
