I had my hair done today by Conrad. By far the best person I have had at the school ever, and I have been coming here for many years. So gentle and knew exactly what to do with wavy ( curly ) hair, including not ripping through the tangles with a "Wet brush, " instead using a very large comb and knowing to trim curly/wavy hair when it was dry and not wet. Getting the color exact and the toner so it was not to dark. Amazing job! Thank you so very much Conrad, and yes I have re booked with you for June before you graduate. See you then.

I was a student at the Academy and it changed me for the better. I could seriously sit here all day and Express how much Lorie and her school effected me on a positive level. When I first walked through her front doors, I could tell that this decision was going to be a life changer. I worked for a company prior that treated me like s***. All I did was deal with angry, hostile customers, so you can imagine I was a little tense, and stern when I first started, however, this career changed me. I felt calm when talking to Lorie about my concerns, and over time, her along with some other teachers helped me gain confidence, love, and positivity within myself. I changed. I walked in angry, and walked out with my whole outlook on life changed. I didnt only gain a wack load of knowlage but I learned how to find my true self. I made friends, not only via the other esthaticians, but my request clients as well. The training that I recieved was VERY thorough and I landed my first job before I even graduated because of her training spicifically. She also helped me build a resume!! You'd be surprised of how many spa's know of Lories spa spicifically. They really do care and Lorie is so passionate about what she does, you can really see it and that made me want to become JUST as passionate. So many good things, however, this Academy does get busy with clients. You have to find your confidence quick and just know that if you need help, it's always there. Honestly I'm glad I had days where I only got 1 break because it prepared me for the real world. Thank you Lorie for your amazing work!! I will NEVER forget you!!!

Excellent in customer service. Although its a school, still feels very much like a Spa. Highly recommend.

Used to be impressed with the school, but not so much now. I went to get highlights done but was told I couldn't get done what I wanted. Still went with highlights though and they ended up very uneven. An instructor didn't even check my hair when the student was done. I emailed explaining my disatisfaction. An instructor emailed me back and told me to book for a "re-do". I didn't get to book right away because I had a family emergency and I had to leave the province. When I got back I called to see if i could still get my re-do. I left a voicemail and it's now going on 2 days with tho response ðŸ˜¡

I am currently attending the Academy of Excellence and have 2 more months before I graduate from the Hair Design program! The staff is very professional and teaches you everything you need to learn in order to be placed in a salon! They have an excellent job placement rate for when you are done the program! I am really loving it here so far and I know I made the right decision to come here out of all of the other schools there is to offer!
