I had the absolute privilege of being a student of Ms.V, and I can honestly say she went above and beyond in every way. Her passion for teaching and dedication to her students is unlike no other, she didn’t just teach us barbering, she made sure we felt confident, valued, and inspired every step of the way. She always took the time to go the extra mile, whether it was staying late to give extra help, providing real-world advice, or just checking in to make sure we were doing okay. You could tell she genuinely cares about our success, not just as barbers, but as individuals. I’m very grateful to have learned from someone so talented, knowledgeable, and caring. If you have the chance to learn from her or work with her you are lucky because she really cares about each student that enters her class. She's truly one of a kind.

I honestly couldn’t ask for a better group of instructors than the amazing team we have! Ms. Nina, Ms. Lisa, Ms. V, Ms. Izzy, and Ms. T go above and beyond every single day to make learning fun, supportive, and challenging in the best way. They each bring their own unique style to the classroom, which keeps things fresh and exciting whether it’s hands-on practice, detailed explanations, or just giving us the motivation we need to push through. And we absolutely cannot forget about Ms. Sylvia, who keeps the energy up and always has a smile that makes the whole day brighter. Plus, a huge shoutout to Ms. Maria, our inventory specialist, who is always on top of everything we need to succeed. She might work behind the scenes, but we appreciate her just as much she keeps the wheels turning! This whole team really cares about us, not just as students but as people. They create a space where we can grow, make mistakes, learn, and feel supported every step of the way. I’m so grateful to be part of this program with such an inspiring group of women leading the way.

Milan in La Quinta, 2019-2020 was definitely a great year. Cosmo school during Covid was a time 😂 we had one of the best instructors, Miss Elizabeth and Miss Val were always there to help and guide us. Miss Elizabeth brings today’s trends to life and she teaches and guides you through the process. She will never say no to teaching something new. Bring the client in and she will teach you. She is the best at motivating and pushing you to do your absolute best. I met some of my best friends in cosmo school who are all succeeding in their careers, some renting chairs and doing their own thing and others working in high end salons and I couldn’t be more proud. Miss Elizabeth is definitely an instructor I’d choose to have all over again, not only in cosmo school but her lessons have helped in life.
