I went here as a hair model for a long layered haircut and I had a great experience. Sofia did an…read moreamazing job and she was very detailed with my haircut. She really listened to what I was looking for and even was willing to make a few adjustments after she had dried my hair. Everything from the washing of my hair, which was very relaxing to the gorgeous blowout she gave me was phenomenal. The only downside of the experience is that it does take a while because there is some waiting for the instructor to give feedback ( i.e. I was in there from 9 AM to 12 PM for my haircut) but Sophia was so easy to talk to the time flew by. I can tell all the students really take their time with haircuts and I would come back again!

I contracted for September 22. They did not have certification and started me on December 6th. They over changed the VA and after was paid on Feb 1, terminated me through email. Then, said I withdrew from the school. I expressed verbiage mattered and they continued to provide improper paperwork. I am a disabled veteran. They also, we're dishonest about who was their liaison as well as who was the director. However, government website shows exactly who is. They also had charged for a supply kit and a deposit. Being in school till termination was about 68-71 days... never got the supply kits other then one. One of three. Never used the one kit I got other than two shirts. To be very honest, the program also only uses English 10:30/10:45 to 12:30. For theory. This school is not safe and is not honest. If you attended this school and have been in similar situation, I will be reporting and have them under a compliance investigation. As well as a lawyer. Also, it's important to note: I was not once written up or have never had any issue in the school other than confronting them.

This is a truly wonderful esthetic school. The tuition is very reasonable compared to many other…read moreprograms, and I feel that the education I am receiving is well worth the cost. The staff are always friendly, welcoming, and approachable, which makes the learning environment very comfortable. Sobia is very knowledgeable and patient, and she takes the time to explain each procedure step-by-step so students can really understand both the theory and hands-on practice. I really appreciate how supportive they are -- they encourage questions and make sure everyone gets individual attention during practice. The school is clean, organized, and professional, and you can tell they genuinely care about their students' success. I feel much more confident in my skills because of the quality training I've received here. I would highly recommend this esthetic school to anyone who is interested in starting a career in skincare or wants strong practical experience with great instructors.

My experience at this school was profoundly disappointing and feels like a scam. I enrolled in…read moretheir cosmetology course and clearly communicated that I needed to take the exam in English, as I do not read Chinese. The owner agreed and took my payment of $1,880. She scheduled me for classes starting Monday. However, on my very first day, I was told I could not attend class and could not take the English exam for the price I paid. She stated the $1,880 was only for the Chinese exam, and the English version would cost $3,500. This was never mentioned during enrollment after | clearly stated my needs. How could I possibly take a Chinese exam when I can't read the language? It's either a severe administrative failure or a deliberate trick to get people in the door. I have never seen a school treat a potential student with such disregard. Fortunately, received a refund, but the entire ordeal was a huge waste of time and energy. Be very careful and get everything in writing.

She did full head, which took around 3 hours, and did an amazing job. She was very helpful in picking out colors and pretty much doing exactly what I wanted. And she was great to talk to as well. I don't think I could have asked for more even if I was paying. However, this was free too! This was an absolutely fantastic experience for me! I hope they'll want to use me again in the future (another apprentice offered to cut my hair soon).

When I wanted to get a fresh new shorter cut I was surprised to see that there aren't any Toni and Guys in NYC -- but I found the Tigi Academy...and found CHRISTOPHER. I already trust the Toni and Guy/Tigi family -- because they are always on top of the latest trends. I did not do the model exchange -- I wanted to pay for an amazing haircut and have an amazing experience. That, I did. Not only is the Academy in a really cool and ritzy party of town - with a great view - But it was clean, modern and every single person there was friendly to me. I am always nervous about paying a good chunk of change for a haircut -- but wellll worth it! The first time around Christopher cut 9 inches off and he made me feel confident and he took control and I loved the result. It was cute right then, and was cute when it grew out. I've already gone back for a second cut. He's my man!
