I highly…read morerecommend AOG to make up artists, models, and anyone looking for a "happy place." onight was my last class of a series entitled "New You" at Academy of Glam (http://www.academyofglam.com) so of course I had to take a picture there! You can read the class description here as I did: http://jewelsfablife.com/2011/01/06/happy-new-you-happy-new-me/ Well, the class was totally different as described in my friend's blog, but I can't exactly describe it... Why? Because it was different for everyone. It was more soul searching than I thought, and it wasn't full of ladies my age... it was full of ladies half my age through ladies almost twice my age, but we all had something in common, we were there for ourselves. Not a selfish kind of thing, but almost like a female retreat.. Dancing, Crying, Laughing, Hair Styling, Browtox (not really, but the way this lady did your eye brows, you leave looking like you just had eye lifting surgery {http://www.wowbrows.net} ) Make Up Lessons, Photo Shoots, Facial Masks, Belly Dancing, Burlesque Dance Class, Zumba Class, Self Defense Classes, Nutrition Advice, Supplement Advice, Meditation, Financial Fun Advice ( by Natalie P. McNeal, author of The Frugalista Files { http://www.thefrugalista.com } )Fun, Fun, and Reality TV Taping, too. But what did I get out of it? A sense of not power, but empowerment.. does that make sense? I learnt to "Dream Big." Not like... I will win the lotto tomorrow..but a huge combination of things... to have a private, sacred place in my home dedicated to me.....a place that I can define my goals and dreams. It may just be a journal on my dresser next to my new fabulous makeup, or it may be a huge poster board with pictures on it to visualize my dreams...my destiny...my life. I am happier now than ever. It's like turned 30 and decided, who cares if people like me or don't. If they like the way I raise my kids, or don't..the way I dress, the way I operate.. if they don't like me, no worries, I don't need them to be a character in my movie.. they don't even need to be an extra! :) I made some awesome friends from this experience, I met many make up artists, but one in particular really stood out, but not as a make up artist, but as an individual...as a friend...and it happens that I also really hit it off with her husband, too.. Not knowing he was her husband at first too, didn't put two and two together for a minute there.. :) (http://mymakeupchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/01/editorial-makeup.html) I met someone I admired as a photographer, too, and now I can definitely call her a friend, and wow she stays busy. She has an awesome house that she turned into the ultimate location for photo/video shoots (http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Mendy-House/127636300620740) So all in all, it was for sure the best $49 I ever spent, and hope to take some more classes there. It's just a great place to be! :)

I love the "drama free" She was always understanding and really pushed me to get better. I will really miss her a lot! I need to thank Mr Robert, the director for guiding me as well and always being understanding of my situation ( I am a mom of two). Always encouraging, never pushy. I have read the negative reviews regarding the hours and payments. Thankfully it has never happened to me. They actually helped me regarding my hours. I don't think it is fair to expect them to hand us everything on a platter. I got my money worth and I am absolutely happy to have chosen boca beauty! Their teachers are amazing! Miss Ayden (the make up teacher) is a gem as well. Full of knowledge and very caring. She knows her stuff! So in conclusion, I would absolutely recommend boca beauty! If you are goal oriented and focused, this place is just for you. I have always raised my concerns to my teacher or the director, and was always satisfied with the outcome. Thank you boca beauty!! I will miss you!

RUN, GET AWAY WHILE YOU CAN. They will GLADLY take your money and NEVER give you the experience you…read morepaid for. Also can't keep a teacher to save their life (Boca campus) The skin teacher is always replaced with a sub because she has to fill in for the cosmo or other course teachers due to them quitting or being fired, so the ones in the actual esthetician program are left without an instructor. The Boca campus is a complete JOKE they care more about their image than the integrity of their school. It's sad to see so much money go towards the funding of their lifestyle rather than the benefit of students. We were only allowed to use 2 wax strips per waxing session because the school refused to buy/provide more. The student "desk" are outdated. The towels in the Nail course have dry acrylic on them so they're hard and rough and haven't been replaced in YEARS. So are the towels for skin, they're torn up. The desk also have old dried up substances, only God knows what they are. Most of the equipment has not been updated. And God forbid a teacher cares enough to bring in her OWN salon supplies so the students get a better experience. NOPE, my teacher got in trouble for bringing in supplies. The director or whoever is in charge much rather make decisions based on emotion than what's best for student learning. Also witnessed my teacher get attacked by a student which was already sad within itself but the director was more concerned about saving the schools image rather than helping when authorities arrived. Didn't even see her check on my teacher (she may have after the fact but it wasn't her priority for sure) If you're looking to just get a degree without the learning then I'd say go for it. But the experience will most likely not be worth your money unless you get a teacher who genuinely cares (they typically quit or get fired when they try speaking up). You can definitely get a better experience for the same price elsewhere. Cosmo tends to have a bit of a better experience just bc I'm sure the funding is different so the school invest in them more but every program should have an equal opportunity especially giving the fact it's not cheap. However, I heard the Parkland campus isn't so bad. Also received NO help throughout my graduation process I didn't know I was graduating until the day of and they do NOT help you obtain your license or job placement. U literally leave and just never comeback, the most help I received was an email with the link for my license. By far the most DISGUSTING staff and school I have ever came across in the beauty industry. The school is just sorry overall and most people will not enjoy their experience attending here. God bless the teachers there who genuinely care.

Karla, the instructor, is absolutely incredible!! she works closely with the girls, teaches with so much patience and skill, and you can tell she truly prepares them to do amazing nails once they graduate. Honestly, I've had a better experience getting my nails done by Karla's students than I've had at the salon near my house. Highly recommend being a model here!

I attended Neo Beauty School to learn how to do nails professionally, but unfortunately, my…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing. One of the instructors, was consistently unprofessional. She belittled me in front of other students, made disrespectful comments behind my back, and created a toxic learning environment. This is not the kind of treatment any student paying for their education should ever have to deal with! I brought my concerns to the office, and while I was told they would handle the situation, nothing ever changed... In fact, the same instructor is now regularly promoted by the school, which is deeply frustrating considering how poorly she treats students. Also spending almost $3000 for the program, they're supposed to give you professional tools, they give you tools that are less than $20 and they end up breaking within the first couple days of using in class. It is ridiculous... If you're considering enrolling here, strongly do your research.

The student refused to do what the educator said and was short with me on multiple occasions though I had never met her. Despite me then asking nicely to respectfully please do as we agreed on with the educator, she refused. I asked to speak to the educator again if we can discuss this. It was the fifth time this had come up but she kept pushing it off and was upset she had to do it at the end and learn the technique. The haircut itself was exceptionally slow and took like 2.5H.
