I attended this school 15 years ago. I am extremely successful, and I owe the majority of my success to the teaching I was provided by this great school. To an outsider, it may look hectic, and unorganized, but there is method to the madness. Not every student on the floor is at a level to cut hair, only about half of students you see on the floor can give you the quality of hair style this school strives for, many of the students are observing, reading, getting used to the caos that is in every salon. The student that was eating, they get 1/2 hour of a 9 hour day, which they clock out for, to eat. If she could have taken you, which she is not allowed to clock in any earlier than the 30 minutes, she would have, because learning is better than eating. There is more to learn about the cutting floor, than just hair, for example, appointment making, product knowledge, staff scheduling, and much much more, hence the 6 students at the desk. In my opinion a wait is a good thing. A long wait means the students are busy (gaining the skills to be out in the real world), busy means a lot of clients, lots of clients means workmanship good enough to come back for/tell your loved ones about. You got a referral right? The school might not be as well of an oiled machine that pofesional salons may be, but it's a school. It's the place you make the mistakes that get you to that will oiled machine. Hair styling is a creative craft that doesn't fit inside a neat little box.
In reference to the 1 star review :
WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE! It was my first time bringing my kids here. My son wanted some color and my daughter wanted a balayage. I explained what I wanted for both of them, and had my kids bring pictures of what they wanted done. Not only did they do a GREAT job, they were all friendly and did EXACTLY what both my kids wanted. I honestly don't know how this place gets bad reviews. I will definitely be coming back to do my hair here.
