Ok, so I got a gift certificate for services here. I have to say that the front desk lady was very…read morenice and helpful. I cut and dye my hair and I was very disappointed at the student/instructor dynamic. I made conversation with the student doing my service and they do a lot of the clases online which I think this type of training should be done on a more "hands on" basis. Also, the instructor came at the beginning of the service but never came back to check or evaluate the final results and I would have loved because unfortunately mistakes were made How do the students get their evaluations if they don't come and check on what they are doing? This student definitely was friendly but not very knowledgeable about what she was doing. I'm grateful for the gift but I don't think I would come back.

Her goal for her school has remained the same. She wants a school that was well known for its grace and beauty. She wants her clients to "love" their look, hence Love Beauty School. She also wants her students to love what they do and carry a dream in their eyes and a love in their heart for the art of hair and nails. Cristie wants to see her students grow and blossom day to day. She believes that once she has accomplished this, her goal of owning a successful school will have been met.

I had an appointment for color. cut and pedicure. The color was done first, then the cut and then…read morethe pedicure was last. The student only consulted the instructor to determine what hair color to use. We talked to determine what I wanted and they they went to mix up the color. During the coloring process, the instructor did a "walk by" to ask if everything was ok. Other than that, no interaction for the rest of my appointment. No consult with the instructor before, during or after the cut. The student asked what kind of cut I wanted and I said just a trim 1/2". The student cut only the ends on the bottom of my hair. She started putting heat protectant on and I asked, "are you going to trim my layers?" She started picking up my hair looking for layers. She acted like there weren't any but I have layers!! She cut a little more, didn't touch my bangs. I was frustrated and finally just said it was fine. Common sense says that the pedicure should have been done first to give ample time to dry but it was done last. Pedicure was ruined when my flip flops were put on. She "fixed" it but simply put on more polish over the lumps. My toes look like 12 year old did them. My student indicated that she would be done in 2 weeks and couldn't find a job. She also said she wanted to be dog groomer but her friends talked her into doing cosmetology. She did not seem to have a passion, skill or confidence for the work she was doing. Seemed to me she has not figured out what to do with her life so she was giving this a go. The instructor was not encouraging nor helpful to this young woman as I would expect an instructor to be. I travel alot and going to an unknown salon in an unknown town is usually a crap shoot. I will seek out a cosmetology school to get a cut and a color and have had excellent results usually because there is unwavering instructor interaction. This was not the case at Image Makers. I noticed the other students were also left to do whatever they were doing without instruction, guidance, or encouragement When making an appointment, I normally will ask for a senior student, however next time I will ask for someone who truly wants to be a hairstylist and has a passion for it. I was excited to try Image Makers, as their website indicates their high expectations for students and that I found that refreshing. Instead I left frustrated and disappointed.

I've often been treated very kindly, though it's…read moreimportant to remember this is a school and the primary goal is education; therefore, patience and flexibility are key. During my visit recent hair appt., my student wasn't able to finish in time and another student stepped in, which felt confusing for them and suggested some unclear expectations from the educators. You're not asked to tip, but donations toward the students' education are welcomed. At $22 for a trim and wash, it's hard to beat, especially if you have long or thick hair. Be prepared to spend several hours, though. They offer small samples of tea and water, which is a nice touch. The environment is very crowded and could benefit from more space; my student was repeatedly bumped into, which isn't ideal when scissors are involved. I also felt some uncertainty around tool sanitation and overall tool quality, though it was hard to tell whether that fell on the students or the school. Overall, it's a great option if affordability is your priority and you're comfortable with a learning environment. I'd rate it a solid 3-4 stars.

I was acing the class with high test scores. If I asked the instructor questions, she took it personally and talked crap about me to the director etc. Most likely she was intimidated and not confident. One day she actually yelled at me in front of the whole class and demanded I talked to her outside the class. I said no way. I'm not trying to have a conversation with you while your angry and hostile. She was so low class and a drunk. She talked about getting drunk every weekend. Anyway, the director resolved it her way which I was unsatisfied with how it was handled. She refused to resolve it in a manner I would be comfortable returning to class which basically was a violation of the schools own policy and procedures, grievance section. Instead she literally told me not to return. I contacted THEC, COE and reported them to my local WIA career counselor. I did not file a formal complaint because I was so upset I chose to move on from the most traumatic experience I've ever had in an educational institution.
