My experience as a student here was HORRIBLE to say the least. Money is the main concern of the…read moreschool and it definitely shows. My education was greatly hindered here as no one in the business is qualified to be an educator. The owners are quite dismissive to people of color and the concerns they have regarding racism happening. The "loan company" is owned by tspa resulting in them to make change and adjust me as they please. I never felt welcomed or that my education or future mattered the whole time I was here only like a dollar sign. Being here, really traumatized my foundation in the beauty field, and I will urge anyone to stay away.

Completing the esthetician program at Allure Academy was one of the most transformative choices I…read morehave ever made. Right from the start, I felt encouraged, challenged, and motivated. The esthetic instructor, Jessica Quintana, affectionately known as "Teach," was not only well-versed and experienced in skincare but also a dedicated mentor who sincerely cared about each student's success. Both Courtney and Jessica ensured that every student excelled in mastering both fundamental and advanced techniques, covering everything from facials and chemical peels to waxing and skin analysis. The Milady curriculum was practical and thorough, combining theoretical knowledge with ample hands-on experience. The spa facilities were clean, modern, and equipped with industry-standard tools and products, which boosted my confidence to launch my own business right after graduation. In addition to developing technical skills, the program placed a strong emphasis on client communication, professionalism, and business ethics--essential elements that have helped me forge strong relationships with my clients and establish a fruitful career. I graduated not only with an esthetician license (achieving all A's) but also with a genuine passion for skincare and a clear sense of purpose in my profession. If you're seeking a program that provides thorough preparation and fuels your enthusiasm for esthetics, I highly recommend Allure Academy. The owner Kiesha King is a visionary with a heart of gold . Her sacrifice to provide a phenomenal school in Henderson, TX continues to bless the city, county and the East Texas communities. Once you meet her, you will understand! Phenomenal Woman

I left feeling confident and beautiful from having both of them do my hair.
