I've been to several tours and this academy was one of them. Unfortunately I went forward with this academy last year ultimately graduated from here, but there was a lot of misery here during the stay. Honestly, ladies and gentlemen spend your money elsewhere. The whole energy of this place is not healthy definitely not fun either. Major turn over here with instructors. The current instructor for the esthetician department who is a middle eastern lady (I believe still there) is not a great instructor. There is no structure with any of the lectures or schedules, lack of discipline with all the students (because there is no strong model to show discipline) and worst of all she makes it difficult being a student here. Instead of being professional at all times because she has high conflict with the Director of the school (the owner) she will tell you every now and then "in the middle of lecture" she hates the owner as well as the owners best friend who works there as operations manager (some asian lady) its unbelievable. Yes the school itself is totally unorganized (there was a period of time where we had no one to train us) because the instructor got fired on the spot. We would sit in our classrooms for weeks (no money compensation for the days without our FIRED instructor BTW). YES some of the women here on staff members are totally unfriendly, mean spirited but those feelings should be kept private. If students are paying over $8k for training here it should strictly be for training absolutely no time for horsing around, gossiping and negative talking amongst your fellow staff members and as well as students. Instructors should remain PROFESSIONAL AT ALL TIMES. My experience here during the whole time I felt I was back in HIgh school growing up in Vegas. I never got adequate amount of SOLID training here but thank God that I landed a job where THEY are teaching me the real deal. Be wise in choosing your school people.
