I came in for a wash, cut, and a curl.. my hair turned out amazing. Feels fresh and light weight even with thick hair. Jennifer is definitely the one to request.

Since March of 2026. I have been going to Bangor Empire Beauty School every three weeks, to get my hair braided. All the students, and staff have been nothing but professional. All of them have amazing attitudes and you can tell they love doing what there doing. I have not felt or seen one ounce of negativity. I will continue to bring my business here for as long as I live in the Bangor area. I want to give a special Thank you to Jennifer!!! 10/10 every single time #Flawless! You will definitely be missed when you graduate but I will see you in a few weeks, for you to twist me up one last time :) I can’t wait!

I was placed with the stylist, Sam G. She was AMAZING. The cut is exactly what I had hoped for and she was so fun to work with and talk to. She was very good at talking me through the steps that she was taking and even helped me realize I actually have a curl pattern! A wonderful experience and I'd love to work with her again
