ok so i went to school at Gene Juarez.
If your planning to go to school there...i wouldnt. If you can stand rude instructors who just graduated from beauty school and went straight into teaching without real on the job expierence. It is like MILITARY school but for hair. They charge you a ridiculous amount to go there and they treat you miserably the whole year. They kick you out if you have to take time off at all and they yell at you for taking breaks. I have no clue how i made it through the school. It was an emotional roller coaster being treated like that. And they have such attitudes especially for people such as myself who are slower learners. They sent me home for wearing a skirt with leggings saying it was too short and the girl next to me was wearing the same exact one and they said your bodies are different and it looks different on me....why because she was skinny???? I was always being made fun of and brought down they brought my confidence to an all time low. And they gave me a check one time and then 4 months later asked for it back saying they accidently gave it to me and i had to pay it back. So be warned the finantial department doesnt know anything about your loan situations.
I know some girls who were kicked out of advanced training for the most RIDICULOUS reasons. They want you to be a robot no feelings or emotions all wearing black and skinny and pretty and not all girls can fit the mold. Sylists are artist and should be able to express themselves as long as their professional.
They told you how to wear your makeup and that you had to pick one style to follow it during the year. They act like they are fashion editors or someone who is a style Icon. You get graded every month on your skills which is great but also on your appearance... i had to work a job and go to school 40 hours a week so sometimes i didnt have the time to look "gene juarez" they finally changed the program so people can work too... so convienent now.
Pros: You learn amazing color , the product lines
Cons: too many i could never fit them all on here
