    I haven't been to Gill-Tech since it moved from downtown, but I always got nice, cheap ($8)…read morehaircuts here. Stylists generally require quite a bit of instruction with regard to what you want (be specific!), but can manage a simple trim just fine. I'd suggest this place for cut maintenance, but not for anything drastic....once when I said "I'm ready to lose about 6 inches," I thought they'd died and gone to heaven - the poor (mostly) girls don't often get to do dramatic cuts (lots of men's cuts, and old women's hairsetting, as far as I can tell). They also offer nails, spa services - all at very reasonable prices.

    I had a rather poor experience at Gill-Tech when I took my bridesmaids to get our hair done for my…read morewedding. I knew we all wanted something pretty simple so I didn't think it would be too much trouble. I was initially assured that the Special Occasions package would not take more than an hour. Luckily I planned for 2 hours because it took well over 2 and I ended up being way behind. My stylist was snarky and bad-mouthed brides that she has had before. She followed up those comments by thanking me for being so laid back and friendly, but I still did not feel like she was acting professionally. She continued to say that she was bad at braids and she was nervous and talked about how my hair wasn't cooperating. That did not help my nerves, either. I ended up having a lot of "chunks" of hair that were sprayed stiff while the rest were frizzy. Luckily another stylist came over to help with the braids, at least. My Matron of Honor's stylist was reluctant to have her sit near the rest of us during the hair and nails and had placed her on the other side of the room for both. Finally, the icing on the cake, toward the end of the appointment my nerves were pretty jumpy (because we were late, my hair wasn't working out, I had been smothered with negativity by my stylist and about to be married) one of the stylists said to me, "Don't worry, everyone's nervous their first time." My first time... getting married? Excuse me? My girls ended up with beautiful hair. I am thankful for that. I wanted to be able to get them a special treat. However, I wish the trainees would be coached on how to behave more professionally and be sensitive to the needs and feelings of their clients. Having my hair be a bit funky was not the end of the world, but I had hoped the experience would have been more calming and less nerve-shattering.

    Terrible....kids and parents, ask yourself why there have been 3 deans in 3 years. 8 week classes…read moreare attrition not learning. instructors dont teach, you teach yourself. DEI is heavy influence! Why is it a competition it is a tech school. I have had a university degree. This was the most humiliating experience I have ever had. I cried with my instructors....literally. No help when the school charged me out of state tuition when I live here in Green Bay. No availability for appointments in any departments. If you think they care, let me tell you otherwise. Go ahead, some degrees maybe, the blogs are inaccurate. I would never send my child to this tech school

    The one star review is for the financial aid office. My wife's experience with her education has…read morebeen very positive at NWTC, and frankly we have had no complaints until the start of this past semester. The tuition isn't cheap but is much more affordable than any of the four year colleges. It is a great option for working adult students (which also describes my wife). However, despite filing for student loans/ aid in a timely manner, there was a delay for the fall semester in processing her loan. In addition to her tuition costs which we can't afford out of pocket, she had taken out extra funds to cover the cost of travel for clinicals, uniform costs and miscellaneous expenses which can add up quickly. Because of this delay, an additional $1000 (per week!) was put on her account while the problem was being figured out. instead of paying $5000 for the semester, she was stuck paying $7000 because the loan processing was delayed due to issues outside of my wife's control. She contested the hold on her account but the loan processed and deducted the $2000 in fees they had applied to her account. She now has to pay for expenses she had planned to fund with student loans out of pocket. Thankfully she did request more or her tuition would still not be paid and she likely would have been forced to drop out of the program. Despite the good education at this school, unless you have $20k plus that you can afford to pay out of pocket for a 2 year program, don't expect the financial aid office to work with you.
