Testimonials

"I love going here, as long as you want to learn there is always a support system every step of the way, wonderful environment and great people!!!"

Lamonica Parker

"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

"Very Thorough & a Great Value. I’ve only been once for a hair cut & a wash, but am already planning my spa side visit. Treated myself, my daughter & my mother & the ladies we each had were great. They were meticulous & ensured the cuts were just right. Also loved that we had the opportunity to sit next to each other."

Nichole Weis

"Megan gave me a wonderful facial and my pedicure with Deirdre was the best! They were very personable and professional. Clearly, the staff at The Spa School has trained them well! And the prices were a fraction of what you would pay at any other spa!"

Donna James

"Toured the school yesterday and loved it! Plan to start classes August 4!"
