I recently purchased a "new" laptop at Nextstep on Garfield and I am very impressed with this…read moreoutfit and its employees! They go the extra step! and are knowledgeable and very helpful. I am an older person and recommend Nextstep to others like me who are not totally tech-savy. The technician who did my data transfer from my old computer went beyond the call of duty to make sure everything was correct and running well. Thank you!! I purchased my last "new" laptop at Nextstep years ago as well and think this business is well worth supporting. I dislike that I had to "upgrade" since Windows 10 will soon stop working--a selfish decision on MIcrosoft's part which forces us into using the inferior Windows 11 and makes obsolete millions of perfectly good computers, which depletes even faster our poor world's resources. Thank heavens for Nextstep which keeps as much as they can out of the garbage stream and which helps so many people. The prices are very reasonable and I prefer supporting Nextstep rather than Goodwill whose CEOs own yachts and siphon off a lot of what should go to good causes like Nextstep.

Despite the world's current state of pandemic, the instructors and leadership team are working ever so hard to create a new way of learning through social distancing and virtual education. Nearby schools, similar to IOT, have closed down (without notice) and we have taken in another 50% of our usual student population, to allow those students the opportunity to fulfill their dreams. Nurses are needed now and will be even more in the future. I give IOT five stars today for the growth that has occurred in the last couple months and in foresight of what is happening currently, to better the community and the medical field, change lives, and grow students into competent, capable, professionals who will provide safe and conscientious patient care.

This clinic caused significant hair breakage during my full highlight service on 12/12/25 and…read morefailed at every level to handle it appropriately. My hair began breaking while soaking wet, with pieces visibly coming off during the service. Despite this, the student continued brushing and working on my hair instead of stopping immediately. I was not informed that my hair was breaking, and no instructor was called over. The student attempted to hide the hair that had fallen out by concealing it in the brush. The damage was only acknowledged after I explicitly pointed out that my hair was falling out. Anyone with even basic cosmetology knowledge knows that wet hair--especially freshly bleached wet hair--is extremely fragile. You do not brush it while soaking wet, and you absolutely do not start brushing from the scalp down. That is exactly what was done. After the damage occurred, I was pressured to return the next day for a consultation despite stating I was unavailable due to work, and I was told I was still required to pay due to a waiver. A waiver does not excuse negligence, improper technique, or failure to disclose damage as it happens. If you value your hair, proceed with extreme caution. I am leaving this review so others are warned before booking services here.
