I graduated from the esthetics program here. Ms Jenny is incredible & gives so much helpful tips from her personal career experience. I am so lucky for I got her as an instructor. Ms Marquita taught my waxing class & my clients now are always so impressed at how wonderful of a job I do without hurting them. Marquita & Jenny are the magic!!

Do not attend this school!! I was not going to leave a review, but decided to after this school gave out my PERSONAL PRIVATE information to a guy without my permission or even telling me!!! EXTREMELY unprofessional and way out of line I have to now take safety precautions. Ended up unenrolling because I wasnt learning anything that was part of the required curriculum for state boards. My class was almost 2 weeks behind because they were so unorganized. We were also supposed to start in the summer but then they pushed the start date out three months. Considering how long they had to prepare for this class, you would think we would be getting all of our supplies that we paid for right when we started but it took about a month and a half to get everything which made it very difficult to practice. On top of that, our instructor ended up randomly leaving one day so we were all extremely stressed out. Very unprofessional business. Had high hopes, but very disappointed. I do not recommend attending.

I went to this school for the esthetics program because it was one of the few schools that is flexible with schedules. That being said I don't recommend the 2 month Esthetician course. It is so rapid you don't have hardly any time to go over anything more than once. We had chapters we didn't even get to go over, just told to read because the schedule is so tight. I would recommend a longer scheduled course to really get the most out of your education. I loved my instructor Jenny & Marquita was so sweet! (I am not sure how to spell her name.) However I am sad at how unconfident I felt after finishing school. I did not feel comfortable even calling myself an esthetician. Fortunately after almost a year I am finally feeling confident in my position. As far as our kits we didn't receive a few items in our kits and we were not reimbursed or compensated for not receiving those products. Also $400 in books was listed on the Tuition fees but we didn't receive a book. We received a binder with the bullet points from the book that included a lot of typos, was such thin paper you couldn't even highlight pages without it almost ripping, and overall was difficult to use. If we have to pay $400 then we need to receive the ACTUAL esthetics book. I had to buy it after school just so I could pass my boards because an overview of the book isn't sufficient. We weren't allowed to be open to the public so we had to take only friends and family members. We were crammed into a small room with dividers and it was an extremely unprofessional setting and I felt so bad for my clients. I have been receiving emails to write a review so I wanted to be 100% honest and help those who are planning to attend this school. I will say again I LOVED my instructor Jenny, I just wish other aspects of the school were better and that I wouldn't have chosen such a rapid course, I do not think they should even offer it.
