I was only interested in doing nails was lied to and had to take the whole cosmetology course. Then was kicked out after 3 month because I took a week off when my son had a medical emergency, for not taking my schooling seriously. She said “it sounds like you’re not in the right place to go back to school with kids” then billed me the full amount.

I was a student and client at Academy of salon and spa so I know both sides in and out and have lots of trauma and PTSD from this place from the beginning I knew there was bad vibes but adisyn the student doing my hair said everything was fine and I believed her and went ahead and applied for school not knowing that this would be the worst 6 months of my entire life! Let’s talk about it! So from the start at the interview it’s cold and snowy I think at the time it was about 12 degrees so that gives you an idea how cold it was we arrive early and had to wait for Trish for about 20 minutes she was busy helping students because at that time she was the only instructor there for cosmetology anyway interview went fine until the end she looks me dead in the eyes and says what you’re wearing you’ll never be successful dressing like that I was in joggers and a sweater she was wearing leggings and sweater 🤔 but let that slide . It got worse as time went on Trish made every single day a living nightmare there were multiple times she made fun of my weight and medical issues like saying me and this other girl were to big to stand in the middle and made both of us be on the side. Trish told the entire class that I have epilepsy made me tell them what medication to the people that aren’t aware that’s a hippa violation but again let that slide as well because I felt there was nothing I could say or do ! Trish also had problems with talking about you behind your back to students clients and staff didn’t care if you found out or not ! Sadly but continuing on there where multiple times I was forced to do clients that needed to see a doctor EX: fungus Infected toe nails that would crack and break off from just the file , I had a men’s cut one day and his head was bleeding there was a open wound still was told to cut his hair so the school wouldn’t lose any money. Trish and Alan are both money hungry ! Somehow with all the money they have we didn’t have paper towels in the bathroom or break room also no plastic silverware so if you forgot your fork well you’re SOL . State board told Trish we needed paper towels in bathroom and nothing was done about it talking about state board they are only supposed to come once a year to do a yearly inspection and in the month of April state board came to Academy salon & spa 4 different times. Anyway I wanted to share just a little bit of my story and I hope that helps I know I can’t tell anyone what to do but for your own safety please do not go here I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy I can never get those 6 months back I’ll always have the trauma and ptsd from this hell if you read all of this thanks for reading some of my story I hope this helps

Sophia absolutely killed it today!! She was able to bring my vision to life all while being laid back and fun to talk to. I’ve come here on many occasions and always love the outcome / environment. Blonde -> Red
