Testimonials

"The ladies (students) at the Spa School in Graceland are amazing. I had a brand new person and she has never done layers and she did a wonderful job. Her name is Tory!!"

Tammy Merriner-Baker

"Excellent, Makuta was incredible. Great experience."

Kaitlynn K.

"This is my second visit to the spa school. I went in for a simple cut with layers and Huda was an excellent stylist! She had great ability to make small talk so there wasn’t the awkward silence. She also Consistently asked if the temperature of the water and blow dryer were OK, which I appreciated! The cut was great and her instructor said she did a great job! I was very happy with it."

Nicole Envid

"You will be well prepared for state boards & the real world! With a staff who truly cares about its students & their future. They are always updating services & product lines, as well as bringing in speakers to educate you. No to mention the pride this facility takes in its cleanliness & giving back to the community. I’m proud to say I attended this school, not once- but twice! I am currently a successful salon owner, and owe much of that success to the programs offered here. And the great people who work here!!!!!"
