Academy of Beauty

If you are transgender do NOT even bother with this place as a student. tim the owner, does NOT like ts people. the rules will be strictly enforced on transgender students while others literally get into fights and throw things at one another. VERY BIASED more

I am sooooooooo tired of seeing negative reviews and complaints about this Academy of Beauty! I have been a client at this beauty school for 18 yrs. I have watched women, men, children, teenagers, clients old and young walk out of that place looking like they just walked out of a beverly hills salon! Unfortunately sometimes things can go wrong because, well, they are LEARNING!!! The reason why this place is so inexpensive is because we are VOLUNTEERING to basically let an inexperienced, not licenced student in training PRACTICE on us!! Why didnt that blushing bride from 2 wks ago with the beautiful makeup and gorgeous updo hairstyle compliment the student or write something on this review page?? Or that blonde that was so rude and demanding to the student who gave her flawless highlights comment on this review? Because its all great when we get what we want for nothing, but when we dont, we have a cow!!! Grow up people! If you dont have the, ""its only hair"" attitude, then you dont have any business walking in there nor do you deserve to receive the amazing services and work that they provide!! Pros: LA's best kept secret! Cons: Not opened Sundays and Mondays more

Last year I went there and was great! more

my friend took me here and I'm surprised by the cheap price. Hair treatment that usually cost me $40 at a salon is only $10 here. It's the ones where you under a dryer after your hair is wrapped with deep conditioner. Sometimes the wait could be long depending when you go. We went on a saturday and waited about 30 min. The place is a bit messy, and towels are a bit worn, but they wash everything from what I can tell. my friend suggested not to get anything permanent like a haircut, just maintenance jobs. Good idea. I would return when i have time. Unfortunately, it's not open on Sunday. more
