Recent Reviews
I just had to leave a review because I am a student here and the most recent review DOES NOT represent our school and is a complete lie. The staff is very nice, attentive, and professional. Our school overall is the most professional beauty school I’ve ever been to and every student here is treated with respect and the environment is VERY sisterly.
I chose this school because they don’t just let everyone in and that to me made me feel like they’re serious about making sure the culture is professional and a true learning environment for people within the community who have a passion for learning the beauty industry the PROFESSIONAL way.
They are not money hungry! I didn’t even pay anything other than an $100 deposit to start and they gave it back after 30 days of me being a student here. They accept FAFSA, grants, scholarship, and they even offer payment plans and when possible, they give students scholarships to help bring down their costs.
Im pretty sure the person who made the most recent review was upset she didn’t get into our school because it is very competitive to get in but that’s because they care about our culture and only allow students who are serious and passionate about learning the industry in the program.
And FYI, every school asks you to fill out a FAFSA no matter where you go and that is FREE. Dymond Designs even helps you fill out the FAFSA and will literally make sure they are present every step of the way in the application process.
And the director of operations is a very busy lady however, she makes time for her STUDENTS when administration and instructors are unable to handle whatever the situation may be. HOWEVER, the person who made the last review was not a student and i just had to respond because our school should be bigger than what it is and it’s growing fast but negative reviews from haters could stop someone from even giving our school a chance even though i know when you come here you will absolutely feel at home!

I just graduated from Dymond Designs and I want to say I truly enjoyed my time at school. I definitely recommend people to enroll to this school if they truly desire becoming a licensed esthetician. The program was very fun, and engaging, and the instructors care about you becoming successful. I love how hands on we were in school, and anything I truly desired to become great at, I was able to ask and be helped! The owner Ms. Marlene is amazing !!! I love her so much. She walks around and engages with everyone, she has an amazing personality, and she believes in giving people fair chances to becomes successful! She strives for everyone coming out of her school to be great and she’s very reachable. She’s not someone that comes off unapproachable just because she is the owner and I truly love that! The rest of the staff is also amazing! I love Ms. Roxy! She’s the first person you will meet when coming into the school and she definitely is a joy. If you want an amazing beauty school experience I highly recommend attending this beautiful school. Thank you Ms. Marlene. 🫶🏾

I recently graduated from the full-time Esthetics program and I can’t be happier. From the first day you automatically feel as if you have a new family. Every lesson taught by any of the instructors is very thorough and well put together. If you don’t know something, everyone is there to support you, even instructors of another course. The best part is that you can feel that everyone on the faculty genuinely wants the best for you and wants you to be successful. If I had the option, I would stay longer than required. With that being said, this is the best beauty school in the state.
