I get that this is students. I was lucky enough to get a good haircut here so I wanted to get my…read moreeyelashes permed and colored too. Guess what, my lashes didn't perm at all, not even a curve. I lay down and basically the student put on the perm solution too early or did it poorly, no worries the instructor comes in and fixes it because they don't want to overprocess my lashes they don't leave it on that long that's fine. The student proceeds to do a poor hand massage and poor neck massage, that's fine, again learning. She then takes forever to clean up my eyes why because she applied the dye very poorly which required so much clean up that when I got up I still looked like a raccoon, that's fine, learning. I get up, my lashes didn't even curve. Not even a little bit. I'm upset obviously because I just spent 1.5 hours on this table to look EXACTLY THE SAME. The instructor comes in too explain what happened and again I get it but you didn't give me this explanation before I laid down? No disclaimers no nothing. She said okay my advisor isn't here but we want to make this right we want you to come in again and fix this. So NICOLE calls me this morning and is like I'm so sorry blah blah blah I was like okay I'll schedule my next appt, the instructor had mentioned complimentary. She's like no most we can do is 20% off, I was like alright please kindly leave me alone than.

This is my first time coming to an Aveda school…read more Facial- relaxing and good flow. i wish there was more shoulder massage but it was professional and enjoyable. Haircut- i wanted to get a trim, long layers, and face framing strands. I loved my haircut but it took much longer than i expected. I saw the reviews and people have said it took long so I made sure to have an ample amount of time, I was just starving haha. I appreciated the students for being so diligent and careful with the service. Instructors definitely knew what they were doing and checking the haircut. Would I come back? Yes i would. For the price, its for a good cause, and close to where i live!

My regular hairdresser was on vacation, so I thought I would take a chance on the Paul Mitchell…read moreSchool. I went here for a basic cut. My hair is not difficult, since it is straight and fine, and I simply wanted my pixie cut neatened up. Each student consults with their teacher before starting the haircut, and the student proposes what they plan to do in the teacher either approves or amends the plan. My student did a great job for about 90% of the cut; unfortunately, the part that didn't come out that great was around my face. She kept cutting one side to make it look a certain way, which was also getting the cut to be shorter and shorter and shorter... I finally had to forcibly tell her to stop cutting! She then asked her instructor to come over, and I expected the instructor to notice that my hair was uneven, but she didn't. At this point, I had been in the chair over 90 minutes and just wanted to get out of there. I went home, grabbed my scissors, and evened out the haircut myself. I probably would not go back here, no matter the circumstance

I have gone to other salons like Super Cuts and other places that charge too much for what they do…read more I had my hair cut at Super Cuts and she did not follow my instructions. I waited 2 months to see if I could do something else to style it with. I remembered that i used to go to a beauty college in arizona. When I lived there and they always did a good job with my hair. Taking their time along with the teachers. So I decided to give Paul Mitchell beauty college a try. And I was very happy with the student that actually listened to me along with her teacher and they cut my hair. The way it should have been in the first place. I was very pleased with the young lady. And I will also be going back there to get my hair colored. Their prices are so reasonable because they are a beauty college. So I highly recommend to go over there. If you want to get your hair done the proper way, then some of these other cheap places like super cuts. And great Clips, I really don't advise going to any of these places. They have raised their prices too high for what they don't do or listen. So I will give paul mitchell, a five star review, and I'll be going back there next month to get my hair colored.

My sweet stylist, Silas, was nice. I could tell that she was fairly new to working with clients. They take classes for about 8 weeks before coming into the floor. She told me she started in January. You do the math. (It's March) ;) I really wanted someone to wash my hair. I mean who doesn't love that! One of the things I have always liked about this place was that there are instructors all around. I saw three of them that day. Many of the girls were new and the instructors came out to teach and actually step in to show them a technique. An instructor will always come to check your hair before you leave so don't worry! Just for a reference, my wash and blow dry was 10 bucks!! They take tips but cash only!! I felt horrible as I only had 2 dollars to give my girl. The instructor made me feel just fine about it. She told me I didn't even need to leave a tip. The girls just love having the experience on the floor. So be prepared to bring cash if you would like to leave a tip. $$$

And every service is overseen by an instructor so you never have to worry. I've had cuts and color, including balayage and highlights.

The first time I went, I was…read moreunable to receive service due to an issue that could have been spotted by a questionnaire in advance, obviating the need for me to drive there. The same thing happened the second time. The third time, I was given an iPad to fill out a form. I have a disability that makes it very difficult for me to type on an iPad or phone, so I asked for help with the form. The manager complained (in a very confrontational manner) that I did not fill out the form myself. I have never been treated that badly before or since. That manager is the only service person who has ever complained about my need for disability accommodations. When I suggested that all forms be sent to clients before the first visit, so problems could be noted and solved before clients had to drive to the studio, he became quite defensive. He showed no empathy. I have never been treated so badly by any service provider. I find it ironic that a manager at a school that teaches people to perform a service career would be so callous. My advice is that you consider driving up north to Austin's other laser school, where service is impeccable.

If they do not do certain types of hair or if they do not take suggestions than they should tell the customer upfront. They won't and do not do all types of hair and won't help the students.
