I graduated from [Academy of Hair Design] and I had a great experience! All the educators were very knowledgeable and taught me so much โ€ฆ The atmosphere, all the patrons I was able to work on, and how versatile the school is, was a great advantage. I appreciate how well prepared I was for the state board and to get out in the field. I have watched [Academy of Hair Design] grow and I decided I wanted to come back to educate and give back to this industry โ€ฆ It's so rewarding seeing how amazing and well [the students] excel!

DAPHNE TOUNIS

Iโ€™ve only been going to this school for three months and Iโ€™ve learned so much. Iโ€™ve always had an interest and a good understanding of hair but the school has helped me improve what I already knew and help me understand what I didnโ€™t. All of the teachers are very nice and will help you with anything you are having trouble with. Iโ€™m really excited to graduate and start my life as a hairstylist.
