This was hands down the best pedi I've ever gotten at a beauty school. They have a hot whirlpool…read moreand the student working on me did a meticulous job. For $15, it's a lot cheaper than other nail salons and Jackie did an amazing pedi!

Great service and awesome prices. As long as you're patient, you'll be very happy walking out. I…read morewent there in June for a pedicure and today to get balayage. Each service did take a bit longer than it would at a typical salon, but they're students, and they are very attentive and careful! Ariel did my hair today and she was amazing! I showed her a picture of what I wanted, which was very light blonde balayage on dark brown hair, and she said she would do her best but wasn't sure if we would be able to get my hair that light. I was totally fine with that, as it usually would take a couple appointments to dramatically lighten dark brown hair. Parts of my hair actually became a little reddish from the remnants of box dye that I had used about a year ago, so she recommended a few options for getting the red out and it all ended up working out. It didn't turn out as light as I had first wanted it, but it still looks amazing! The red is gone, and the blonde is still very light! It was blended well with my roots so it looks natural and sun-kissed. AND it's not nearly as damaged or fried as I've experienced in the past with bleaching. Huge shout out to Ariel for working with me for over 3 hours and doing everything she could to make sure my hair looked like what I wanted. She's awesome!

I'm a graduate from Tulip City and out of all of the places i've toured NOTHING comes close to the…read moreexperience I had! With everything this school has to offer the best part is the staff, they're selfless and do anything to make sure you succeed in every way possible, in school or not they'll be right with you. The dress code is professional and like your average salon, there's no crazy rules that are easy to follow. If it wasn't for the tech program and the amazing guidance from Kelli I wouldn't have continued the program, while you're in her class she does what she can to help you understand and exceed in everything you learn. The Instructors in the adult program are just as amazing, they strive for your success and give you every opportunity to do the best you can and get to every goal you have! If it wasn't for this school I wouldn't be where I am today!

Today was my first experience at this school, and unfortunately it was not a good one. I arrived…read morefor a manicure and pedicure with gel polish, but the front desk staff told me they could only do a "dry" application and could not soak my nails beforehand. I explained that I've had gel manicures and pedicures done for years at both salons and schools with full soaking included, but told them I was still willing to proceed. Instead of simply scheduling the service, an instructor was brought over who immediately seemed defensive and confrontational. She insisted that soaking nails before gel polish was not allowed in Michigan and gave questionable explanations about bacteria. She then refused to do my pedicure because I was wearing an aircast for a sprained ankle, despite the fact that it could easily be removed and I had no mobility issues. As a registered nurse, I understand my own limitations. The interaction became increasingly uncomfortable, so I chose to leave. I then went to The Salon Professional Academy, where I was treated professionally and respectfully. They provided a full manicure and pedicure, soaked my nails as part of the service, and completed everything without confrontation or unnecessary drama.
