I told them my girlfriend and I had a 10 hour drive ahead of us. She just wanted to trim her hair. It took them 2 fucking hours to cut a few inches of hair off! go here if you're not in a rush. Unreal! read more

They're rude, dont use their gruopon here. They discriminate!! They are a school!! Like do your time & job. Why the hell do you care what I do with my hair after I leave your school. The instructor kept telling me to go to the other salon to get my hair done. Dude STFU. The students need the experience & you're over here being bougie like your at some high end Salon. Your school offers groupon for a reason all the time!! Don't offer it if you're going to DISCRIMINATE & act weird!! IF I want to be cheap that's not your business, just do your job!! I didn't get my Groupon service done here because I have more respect for myself. I'm not going to be around some Weirdo vibe. The student was fine, she was just tryna do what she needed, which this Sassy Male instructor should have done! Trust me I've done my hair plenty times at a SALON. His suggestion was telling!! read more

If you're looking for so on quality, I had a highly discounted rate, you're looking at the right place. These guys are amazing. I have thoroughly enjoyed every experience I've had with them. The instructors are top-notch and actively involved throughout the entire procedure. I would definitely recommend. read more

I bought a Groupon for a Vivid Color, Cut, Condition, Scalp Treatment and Blow Dry combo package. Honestly, what a steal -- I now live out of the area, but I would definitely return to this chic, fair-priced academy. The biggest complaint I have is regarding the front desk. I called them a few times and left voicemails, but I didn't get a call back. Trying again, I just happened to catch Alicia after days of trying to book an appointment over the phone which is the only option. She told me she was new and told me they had to split the appointments up into two, so she scheduled me for the color on a Thursday and for the cut and scalp treatment the next day. I came in for my first appt. and checked in with Alicia. It didn't take more than 10mins to get started with Jordan. We did a consultation with her teacher, Arianna, agreeing to go for a cool copper color -- something flashy, but not obnoxious since I had to go to a wedding the following week. Another brunette (I'm so sorry for forgetting your name) helped Jordan, and I really enjoyed meeting them and chatting with them both. It was a good time, and I LOOOOVED the final result. The next day I came in for my cut (with someone different) and scalp treatment, but unfortunately found out from the male teacher that the scalp treatment would wash out the color I'd just done the day prior. I was super bummed to not be able to get this service and that the front desk wouldn't have thought to schedule this more accordingly or give me a heads up about it, but maybe she didn't know. No refund or later service was offered. FYI -- get the scalp treatment BEFORE the color! The lovely lady who did my hair was so fun to talk to, and she did a great job as well. I highly recommend visiting this salon. It is the BEST academy I have ever visited. They seem like they are taught at a much higher standard (the teachers are always checking in and know what they're talking about -- I used to work at a salon), and I genuinely liked the ladies who worked on my hair. read more

Absolutely amazing!! Juniper absolutely killed it doing my hair, I was platinum blonde for so long and I wanted to go darker. They explained to me what could look good and how they could do it and what could look and what they don't wanna do. I was really nervous they weren't gonna let me go brown but when they did, I was so happy!! They did exactly what I wanted and better!! Juniper absolutely killed it along with her Instructor Roxy (?? I believe that was her name.) She was incredibly nice and informative at every step. Not only explaining to Juniper but to me the client as well so I also knew what was happening. I loved it. plus to get my hair dyed it was only $60!! That's such a steal. Usually I was spending that much every time I was trying to bleach my hair at home. My hair feels so soft and healthy and I got nothing but compliments for it!! Thank you Juniper for amazing service, I will definitely be back. read more

The students here seem so well educated and I have always left happy!! Meadow did amazing on my hair, great place to go!!

I had my hair cut by Taila yesterday who was supervised by Shauna. I just wanted to compliment both of them as they made it such a pleasant experience! I appreciated that they listened to what I wanted. I love the way Taila cut my hair, and the way Shauna helped her learn different ways to cut. Highly recommend Taila and hopefully Shauna will be her supervisor! I will definitely return. read more

Scott and Hannah are and were a pure delight! Good times! I love going there because both of the instructors Scott and Teddy take their time to listen to what I would like to have my hair done, and how. Greg is quick to always check you in and quick and efficient to check you out. I never have to wait for long because Greg is so fast scooting to get my scheduled hair stylist to greet me, and welcome me to their personal hair work station. Love how Scott and Teddy are perfectionist's and care about their clients! As well as Greg the scheduler, and every hair stylist there about 7 times. The hair stylists are sure to ask questions often to get my hair just right. I love these kind of people! I care about how I treat others as well, and I always give a decent tip to show the stylist my gratefullness. NameSte to you all!! You really brighten a girls day and her hair with beautiful highlights! read more

I purchased a Groupon package that included a ton of different services, and booked an appointment for the mid morning. If you have the time and patience for your service, its SO worth it! The students are constantly being checked on by the instructors, so you can ensure that you're being well taken care of. Everyone is super friendly as well, and will make sure that you leave with what you wanted. For super affordable and professional service, I would definitely recommend coming here as long as you have a bit of extra time! read more

They do a decent job although my first appointment they didn't do my cut.... But charged me for a mess up when they needed an extra bowl for toner because they gave me hot roots. Not fair when I had a Groupon it should have covered it! read more

Kiana did a great job on my hair! I had to leave within 3 hours and she hurried to finish just in time, which I appreciated. The students always have instructors nearby in case they have questions or need guidance. Teddy really cares and i appreciate that he made sure everything was going well. I feel comfortable coming back and trust that they will do a good job! read more

Are you as afraid of going to a cosmetology school for cut and color as I was? This school is different. Jen did my hair and did such a fantastic job after I went two years doing nothing to my hair due to covid. It looks like I spent $300 for the work. I love, love, Love my hair. Definitely will return. Instructors are fantastic and Jen was personable, confident and will go far when she graduates. No we never met but check out below for the proof and I will say no more! read more

I know that the idea of going to a beauty school is a bit terrifying for a lot of people. But I have gone here a whole lot of times for various services and always walked out happy. Just a quick note to the wise, when you call ahead to make an appointment, you can request a senior student. These are the people that have the most experience under their belt, so it's worth the extra dollar or two they'll charge. I have very low-maintenance hair, so I have gone in for cuts and trims, and I've only ever had one trim that didn't look quite how I wanted it (it was a guy...who has short hair...so maybe I took a bit of a risk letting him near my hair.) But like I said, my hair's low-maintenance. I probably wouldn't recommend you come here for more complicated things like highlights or a drastic cut. But they also offer other services for cheap. I once went in for a basic facial, and they ended up upgrading me to a European facial free of charge just because that was what the student needed to pass off. It was cheap and felt so unbelievably good! I've also had other services done like mani/pedi, deep conditioning and scalp treatments, etc. Like any good salon, the gossips always in full force, and the conversation is great entertainment. It's a nice cheap way to get a little pampering. read more

Lindsey is the very best! She's so through & positive the whole time. I've loved all my experiences with her

Madison was absolutely great! She understood exactly what I wanted and got her instructor when she wanted more guidance. It made me feel like she cared so much! She was very sweet and nice! What thing that could improve is time length of the appt. I was called to reschedule from 10 to 1pm which was fine. Although, they didn't grab until 1:15 and I was out of there by 3:15. I told them I had to leave by 3. But overall, great service! read more

I've been a customer here for years! C.A. is wonderful. My student stylist today was Jennifer, and she's fantastic. The red color, and trim, are exactly what I asked for. The red is breathtaking and vibrant. I look forward to going back to Jen until she graduates! Thank you, Jen! read more

I have full trust in this salon. Prices are awesome, students are friendly, and supervision is helpful and professional. They nailed a cut on my daughter copying from a picture, and my recent fuchsia color is A+ by all measures.

Haley Lund did an amazing job on my hair it was a weird green color and she brought it to a amazing balayage and I keep getting so many complements ! I totally recommend coming here ! read more

Mya did an amazing job with my babylights and balayage! This was my first time getting highlights and I asked for subtle and natural looking. I also wanted something to hide some sprouting greys. She nailed it! I didn't really have time to fully see what it looked like in the salon because they were closing and I felt like I needed to leave... but once I got home and was able to look at the back and sides with mirrors, I could see what a great job she did. It looks so natural and the color is beautiful! read more

There are very few businesses that I'll drive 1.5 hrs to get to. Provo and Park City are much closer however Collectiv is worth the drive. I've long hair with a few grays and I'm very particular about how my hair is handled, especially when getting highlights, cut, and regrowth touch ups. My hairstylist Allyson is an exceptionally talented young stylist. Her supervisor Jamie is also outstanding and as always took great care with my hair producing beautiful results. Thank you to both for their care, skill, and communication in helping me get the best of the best . read more

So worth it! My base was only 30 bucks. Excellent instructors and the front desk was super nice and helpful. I will be back!

Great school and awesome staff! I've had my hair cut here for a few years and I've have been treated professionally.

I find the students amazing and helpful they are knowledgeable and nice. The instructor Jamie yelled at students in front of client made the working environment tense. I found her to be rude. read more

I went to Collective Academy without a very high expectation and was very wrong. Haylee cut my hair and did a great cut and then Kaylee colored my hair and did a better job on it than anyone else has ever been able to do. It looks phenomenal! Everyone was very professional and great to work with. They listened to what I wanted and made suggestions. Whole environment is very pleasant. I highly recommend it to anyone! read more

I found Collectiv Academy through Groupon. I love how this hair academy works. It's different than any other hair academy that you may have been to before. They are so friendly, too! I will keep going here. I recommend it. read more

I went in with roots (level 8/9 natural blonde) and platinum hair. Showed both the student and instructors the picture/idea I was going for (balayage). Got in the chair about 12:15 and was paying around 2:55. If I didn't have to get my two kids to two different places by 3:15 and still go get them I would have had them do it again. I paid for my hair to look the same as it did when I walked in to when I walked out besides now also having a reddish tint to the roots that I didn't have before nor ask for. Oh and my hair wasn't even fully died when I left, the instructor even marked it off that it was okay. I have done hair for 10+ years, even when I was in hair school there is no way our instructors would have marked it off for a client to leave like that. Attached are the pictures to show before(1) 1/21/18, today after(2) 2/2/18 and the pictures I showed them. The one good thing to say is they were nice in person. I called to talk to them about this and still no answer, left a message and no retuned call. I wanted to treat myself and go get my hair done instead of doing it myself or at the salon. Guess I'll still be doing it myself. My kids that notice when I do my makeup different couldn't even tell I got it done. Can't wait for their dad to see and what he says about it and actually paying for someone to do it for the first time in 10+ years. Update: Never got a call back, finally went in to talk to them after a week and a half and my hair faded to a almost copper color where they had colored my roots. I informed them I did not want a full refund due to them taking the time and also the product but the owner did give me most of my money back, she could also see the color change and apologized for the unsatisfactory services. The owner also said hopefully when they move locations the phone service will get better since I told her how often I was calling and could never get through to anyone, even to make my initial appointment. read more

Such a great experience. Better than I have had a non-school (read more expensive) salons. My hair feels better than it has in months and looks amazing! Isabelle was a great hairdresser and was able to correct another salons mess up! Kenny and Lenore (the owners) were VERY hands on and made you feel like the most important person in the world! Do yourself a favor and go here! read more

Went in for color and trim, didn't get the color I wanted and she hacked off 6-8 inches of my hair after multiple times telling her I wanted to keep my length! To top it off was a horrible haircut and had to go get another one to straighten out the mess so unhappy with my decision to try this place. Not recommended read more

I'm a graduating student at Collectiv and I can honestly say that I feel like I got the best education possible. The owners, Kenny and Lenore Gibson, are really involved and care about each of their students and are so willing to help and educate in any way they can. The instructors, Stacey, James and Charles, are always there for you and give you the confidence you need to venture out on your own. The students make the learning environment feel safe and they're all so welcoming to new students. I know I have the confidence I need to go out into the real world and be successful. I highly recommend attending Collectiv if you're interested in the beauty industry, you won't regret it! read more

I decided to give this place a try after searching groupon for a hair cut and style, and was pleasantly surprised to find a deal for a cut, condition, blowout, conditioner, and babylights. The location was easy to get to, I was assisted immediately, and everyone was just so nice! My stylist, Jessica, did everything I asked and more! The cut, even though it was just a trim, came out magnificently and exactly what I was looking for. Will definitely go again - I even scheduled a scalp treatment for the next weekend! read more

They do an okay job with their services, but to get into them is ridiculous! Trying to get an appointment is crazy, they never have openings. Maybe if they extended their hours a bit to normal hours of service they would have more appointments available. read more
