Kim, Katie and Amy were so very supportive and responsive to my needs throughout the journey. When I initially went into Lavish School, I was very disappointed and ready to give up. I found out that the education I received in another state wasn't going to be enough. Kim lifted me up with her positive attitude and made it seem possible. I walked back out of there with a much lighter heart and hope. I just passed my state boards and am beginning my job search and am very confident that the skills I was taught will carry me far in the beauty industry!!

You cannot fault the students, as if they do not have good leadership, they are bound to fail. I have observed on every visit the teachers socializing MORE than teaching. The school has raised the prices for the services. The school should have prices based on covering the products used only, as the students tuition should cover any other expenses aquired. The school should NOT be profiting off of the people that come in for the students to learn from. Poor management, poor teachers.

The nail tech are in 1 room. There's about 3 pedicure stations and 8 manicure station. They do a variety of services, with gel and regular polish. The techs are still in training, expect to be there for a long time. My manicure and pedicure took over 2.5 hours, which I didn't mind. The techs were so sweet and kept apologizing.

I ended up taking a chance and driving 20 minutes to see if they had openings. Fortunately, they just happened to have one opening when I showed up. The woman I got this time around must have been very new, or at least new to cutting mens hair because she was very nervous. Again, this is a school so I don't mind that it takes a bit longer and understand there's a chance something could go wrong. The instructor basically gave me an entire haircut in about 10 minutes when she came to review the student's work. My second time here also took about 90 minutes, so I think this is a safe bet for a mens cut.

She fixed it with an extra layer of top coat. My polish chipped and peeled within 24 hours. I feel bad that students are provided products that don't set them up fir success. There was a group of students nearby, working on each others' nails, talking about personal subjects and swearing. It didn't really bother me but it seemed unprofessional.
