Matt gave a great cut and checked in with the instructor entire time to make sure that I was going to be happy with the cut and look. It did take longer than my usual haircut time but I knew that seeing a student it would be a learning experience and of course it would take some extra time. I have double crowns and it was a first for Matt to work with & double crowns will even stump seasoned barbers. I'd go back to see Matt at the school and to his future locations.

I took the Nail Technology course here 7/8 years ago, and thought the staff were fantastic!…read moreThey took the time to help me if I was having a problem with a certain section of the course, and made me feel like they cared if I actually succeeded or not, which was a nice change. I had taken a makeup course in a different school and had left there feeling like I had just been a cash grab for them. Great vibe in this place.

If you are at all like me...you like to get pampered but just don't have the disposable income to…read morebe spending at the spa...then you've got to check out Body Glamour. This is a school for hair dressers and estheticians. I have found the students to be highly qualified and friendly. They are always supervised by an professional instructor. Today I had my very first European facial ever and I loved it! I find that because it is a student working on you, they are very attentive and they are not looking at the clock all the time and really spend time on the massage part of facials, manicures, and pedicures. It is also nice to to know that you are helping the student by being there. Body Glamour needs more "models" for their students to practise on. Give them a try and help make this local company successful, you and your wallet will be so glad you did!

The young lady that did my hair did an amazing job and should be proud of the work that they put into it especially as a student. However , the reason for my one star review ; One of the staff members (teachers) I witnessed did not hold any ounce of professionalism or respect when dealing with both clients as well as students. In my time spent in the salon I watched the students doing their best to handle the fact that their teacher was being un necessarily rude about the critiques she was giving them and when giving critiques didn't even have the respect to pull the student aside rather decided to berate these poor students in front of their client embarrassing them over small mistakes that were not even noticed by myself or the other clients in my surrounding area. She did not demonstrate any of the tools of a good supportive leader and I hope the Blanche Macdonald school seriously considers a different position for her within the school away from students and clients. Or seriously re evaluates her position at the school. As no client should have to see her treat people this way , people deserve respect in all regards and it is important to remember that these young people are learning. I believe this lady's name sounded like Renada or Rita but I only heard her name from a distance. An mature woman of blonde hair. I would once again like to re iterate that I loved the work and kindness that the students provided to me and that this review should not reflect that but poor leadership and hiring.

I recently had a very disappointing experience regarding my appointment. The instructor was…read moreunusually dismissive and disorganized. When I showed up she questioned me as to whether I had actually booked an appointment which was clearly marked on her calendar. It took well over 15 minutes to finally sit in a chair. I've been to the school on a number of previous occasions and was always very well received and happy with the overall experience. This was a first time incident and the young woman who was apparently chief instructor, was unkind and unprofessional. I brought this up with the instructor who oversaw my haircut and she reacted negatively as well. That said, the students were helpful. So I have to say that this was a very bad day all around and I prefer to not return.

The girls the accommodated me and my 8 yr old, and the girl stayed after closing for me. My nails w were awesome! One wierd thing I noticed was the first girl started my nails and then in the middle abruptly got up and switched to another girl- no warning or explanation. Strange but ok. The day before yesterday I went for the second time. I went as a walk in, and the girl seemed a bit off from the beginning. Why I'm giving three stars is because I'm happy with the nails, the attitude I got was not ok. She seemed bitchy and at one point she was pointing out that she had to change my mail as the last person did it crooked, she said. I know my mail is slightly cracked and I didn't notice anything the last time- then she held up my finger to show me. When I didn't understand and asked for clarity she got all pissy and said something in her language which in sure was very derogate, right there in front of me! I felt so uncomfortable and upset about it. A bit shocked, even. I let it go but it's still bothering me so I hope this communicates . I paid a lot and tipped too. I'll be going back though , hoping for the best and I'm happy with my nails.
