Because this is a school its in one big room, so don't expect a quiet dimly lit room with just you. Its several people getting different services at one time. It wasn't to loud and i was still able to relax while getting my facial. The esthetician was friendly, and she gave recommendations for skin products that would help based on my skin. They have microdermabrasion, steam, different facial scrubs, and etc. Its located in the Wells Fargo building on the second floor. I felt very good and relaxed when i left and my face was glowing!! Like my face was giving she got that goodt skin vibes!!! I recommend their services. Check them out!! Don't forget to bring a tip for your student esthetician!!!

When applying to the school you have the right to decline a seat offered no matter what your…read morereasoning is and they're not loosing any money b/c you have to pay application fee if you want to move forward . They're going to go to next person on the waiting list. You don't know if a person has emergency situation or medical. In my situation I applied to the school 4 times and was offered seat 2 times. The last time I was told I would receive aid, Chrysm financial aid department gave me the wrong information regarding aid which cause my payments to be higher than which was quoted the first time. Have receipts to prove it. They never took accountability for their mistakes in putting out wrong informations through emails. So in their policy they can decline any application for any reason. Discrimination This is to raise awareness for people who decide to apply to this school, check other places.

I came here by the referral of someone completely random and saw my hair style awhile back. I have a comb over hair style with my sides and back being high and tight and faded close to the skin to an almost near zero. I always go to my man John to cut my hair; he's the fade master and an artist when it comes it cutting hair. He is so meticulous in how he cuts my hair and takes his time to make sure that each single strand of hair is how it should be. I would caution though that his specialty is fades but I know he can cut other styles as well. The atmosphere is very relaxed and you can almost always find the employees having unfiltered conversations with patrons there which can be amusing. $8 for a hair cut is a steal. And it's only $4 on Mondays and Wednesdays which is insane. The only downside I can think of is that they don't have blow dryers but it's not the end of the world. Great prices and the best hair cut I've ever had will make me a customer for a very long time.

I went in thinking I was going to get just copper in my hair and ended up with a ombre violet and sutle copper. I wanted to keep my length in my hair for my hair cut so, I ended up just getting a trim. I had a lot of lighter hair from mid to ends, so an ombre just made sense and to utilize what i already have. My stylist Chelsea did an awesome job. I had to see the finish product with the dry and porducts used my hair looked fresh. If you do end up coming here for a haircut and color. Just keep in mind that these are students practicing unger a licensed teacher. It will take more time than going into a regular salon. I really enjoyed my experience and already booked my next appt with Chelsea. More pictures of the inside will soon be added.

When it comes to anyone new especially if your regular like me It's always best to just let them know what exactly what you need done and what you prefer and what methods works best to give you the overall good experience and I will say that the person I had today Jenna was absolutely amazing. She's was fast. And very understanding when I gave her feedback and took ignition of how my previous stylist who did my hair before and she gave me a overall good experience and was able to get me out the timeframe that I needed to be out of here as well as being able to successfully give me the look that I would like to have for future services here. The staff is always so welcoming, as well as very attentive to detail in regards of making sure that every student is doing their part to give you the quality service that you get and the pricing for texture hair has gone up, but it's still affordable compared to other places this has been my go to spot since me and my mom been going to since she's brought me to here to get my hair done for the very person this my favorite spot to go and they do provide other services including make up glam day. This is my top spots to get your hair done within a good timeframe and having future stylist take care of you and give you the hairstyle you will want to keep coming back for more.
