I'm a student getting ready to graduate and it has been a pleasure. I have met some wonderful people and have gotten to be apart of some really good experiences. The night class worked with my schedule and because of Financial aid I didn't have to worry about paying out of pocket. I'm excited for my next journey.

I was blessed with the best instructor I could ask for, Ms. Victoria, and I was blessed with many other inspiring, strong women. Mitsu, the owner of my school, game me a lot of one on one instruction when I asked for it and inspired me to never want to stop moving. I couldn't have asked for a better beauty school experience.
