Customer Reviews
I just want to give a big thank you to my barber instructor, Ms. Gigi. She is an amazing teacher who truly cares about her students and wants to see everyone succeed. She takes the time to explain techniques clearly, gives helpful feedback, and is always willing to help when someone is struggling. Her patience, professionalism, and passion for barbering make the learning environment positive and motivating. Because of her guidance, I’ve gained a lot more confidence in my skills. I’m really grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from her.
My experience in the barber crossover program was nothing short of great. I enjoyed my classmates, the school staff, the clients & especially my teacher. Miss Gigi is knowledgeable and so helpful. She’s a talented barber and teacher. I’d recommend taking the barber or barber crossover to anyone looking to go to school.
Cut way too much of my hair off. I was growing it out for my wedding :( Looks choppy and botched, even after I had a SECOND TRIM BY THE TEACHER. They refused to refund me my money. I tried to style it and the bottom of my hair looks like Dora, super thick. Not to mention, I also got a “blowdry” but they don’t style, I left with choppy and poofy hair as seen in the photo. I understand it’s a school but even the teacher cut my hair after I came back crying and I STILL left with botched hair. There go 2 years of growing it out for nothing. For reference, my hair was down to the middle of my back and now it’s slightly passed my armpits. Incredibly disappointed in how the “teacher” handled. Will not be returning & do not recommend.
Great experience very educational Ms Gigi (morning barber instructor) was very thorough with theory and was very helpful and patient.
Ms Trish and Ms Paula were amazing teachers throughout my entire course. (Esthetician Course)
