I want to give a special shout out to Angie who is one of the owners. I have incredibly thick and curly hair and twice she has noticed that my hair wasn't cut correctly (NEITHER cut was done at the school) and took the time to show the students how it is done. She is doing an excellent job showing leadership and attention to detail. Not only that, but I also observed other instructors out on the floor giving hands on instruction. THANK YOU to everyone who plays a role in making this a fantastic spot!

I am very disappointed with my experience at Paris Beauty College. This was my first time visiting,…read moreand I was really looking forward to getting baby highlights done all over my hair. I have had baby highlights done before, and I have never had such an awful experience in my life. Unfortunately, the results looked almost exactly the same as my original color and even appeared darker in some areas. What made the experience more frustrating was that the instructor did not agree or acknowledge that the result was not what I had requested. As a customer, it's disappointing when your concerns are not taken seriously. I paid $120, and like everyone else, I work hard for my money. Now I have to go somewhere else and spend more to get this fixed. I truly had hoped to become a regular client here, but after this experience, I would not recommend this place to others.

My girlfriend and I went here last weekend for hair cuts, manicure and pedicure. The prices are…read moredefinitely right for the hair cuts (currently $10) and the mani/pedi is currently only $30. We were both satisfied with the services we received. I only got a hair cut and appreciated how much time my stylist spent with me. My girlfriend got an amazing pedicure - always pretty in pink. I'd definitely give them a try - remembering they are students and may take a little longer than you're used to at other salons.

I had an another amazing appointment at the Paul Mitchell School East Bay with the stylist Sean!…read more this time I got a haircut and it came with a wash and style. Sean, as always, was amazing and was very accommodating to my fidgetiness. It's always fun to talk to her as she is very kind, funny, and takes pride in her work. The teachers, Harley and Derrika, were also super helpful and very kind. they both took the time to educate me as well as my stylist and gave great tips for hair protection & technique. The only reason that it's four stars is because when I was scheduling, the front desk gave me misinformation on Sean's schedule and it was difficult to rebook with them to get the correct schedule. However, this was over the phone and rebooking in person was much easier. I still highly recommend for people looking for good quality services at a decent price!

A friend mentioned the Paul Mitchell school to me and seemed like it was worth a try. Well, now…read moreIve been twice in 2 months. Found a gem of a student with great instructor support (when needed). Mentally, keep in mind that these are students. The quality has been top notch but most things take about twice as long due to learning needs. If you visit, keep this in mind with respect to the student. You can book at the front BUT...if you call, it sends to a remote cost center. They are also only open during the week...no weekends. My treatment today was outstanding and I cant praise my stylist and her teachers enough. The only thing I dont like is the creepy psycho killer looping music in with the wash basins. Otherwise..5 stars all around!!

Oh Gawd No! Don't go! Not to save money, or to help the students practice. Just don't do it! I got…read moremy hair cut here, and I could tell the student barely cared, the hair cut was imbalanced, lopsided, I looked like I had a mullet. AWFUL! She tried to tell me that she was finished. I asked to see her instructor. Immediately her instructor gave her a personal lesson on one side of my head, and said for her to do the same on the other side. Haircut looked WORSE! I was so upset - I had to wait weeks and weeks for it to grow out so I could seek out a PROFESSIONAL to cut my hair and fix it! Look people, pay the money, get a better haircut from a salon! It's not worth the humiliation and embarrassment, it's just not worth it! Don't go there.

Today was my first time visiting the beautiful JD Academy of Salon + Spa in Danville, and I had a…read morewonderful experience. The facility is clean, beautifully decorated, and filled with friendly students and staff. I was paired with a talented student hairdresser named Margie, overseen by her instructor, Ms. Vessi. Both of these amazing women made my visit exceptional. I came in for a transition from dark hair to highlights plus a fresh haircut. I felt wonderful throughout the process. Margie has a bright future ahead of her; she is talented, positive, and professional. The school is also very lucky to have a mentor like Ms. Vessi. I highly recommend this location for anyone looking for great service and a welcoming atmosphere.

You will need to call and schedule about a month out for a service. Diana was my esthetician and she greeted me warmly. During the service she listened to my skin concerns and formulated a plan of treatment. The service was great and very relaxing. I had a great time and I will definitely be back. For being a school, it felt very professional and the students were exceptional.

Current student going through the program and may change rating based on ongoing experience…read more I started the program about 2-3 weeks ago, mainly because they recently began offering weekend classes, which worked well for me since I have a demanding full-time job. So far, unfortunately, my experience has not been great. I'm not sure if it's because the hybrid/online model is still new for them, but it really feels like they don't have the process fully organized yet. Most of the issues come down to lack of communication and unclear expectations for online students. Once I paid my deposit, I wasn't really guided through the next steps. I was briefly shown the portal we use for coursework (CIMA) and told to download WhatsApp because that's how we communicate with instructors. Beyond that, I pretty much had to figure things out on my own. I even had to personally ask questions in the group chat because I was confused, and it turned out several other students felt the same way. Eventually we found out there's an orientation every Monday, but nobody clearly explained that upfront. The virtual learning environment has also been frustrating. During online sessions, chats are muted and virtual students can't really ask questions because the instructors are focused on the in-person class. That honestly makes no sense to me considering online students are paying the same tuition as in-person students. It feels like the virtual students are an afterthought. Even submitting homework has been confusing. We use Dropbox, but I was basically just told to "download Dropbox" and had to dig through old chat messages to find the actual submission links and instructions. At this point, I honestly feel unclear every step of the way. I spend more time trying to figure out logistics, apps, links, and expectations than actually focusing on learning. The frustrating part is that these seem like very simple organizational issues that could easily be improved with clearer communication and better onboarding for online students. I'm still early in the program, so I hope things improve over time, and I'm open to updating my review if my experience changes.
