Overall I have a good experience every time I visit. I've gone in for a cut, color and waxing on many different occasions. The staff is very nice and the prices are great. Since they are students, they are learning. I once went in to get highlights and walked out with chunks of blonde on my brown hair that I had to get re-done somewhere else. I still will be stop in for the basic maintenance, but I would be hesitant to try highlights there again.

So thrilled that I came here. Friendly staff, great prices. This is going to be only place I get my hair done from now on.

I come from a big city and am used to Groupon prices. I needed to get my hair done for a wedding so I looked around online and found this place to be affordable for my budget. I made the assumption that since this was a Redkin academy that the students would be more educated than they were. I asked for full highlights and a peek-a-boo dark brown under-color. I stressed the importance of cool tones. This is always what I get so they should have had a great example as to what I wanted based on my already professionally treated hair. The girl was really nice and I did like her, but she didn't listen to what I wanted. Instead of highlights she actually foiled my entire head minus the peek-a-boo. I sadly didn't notice as my hair is thick and I'm used to a ton of foils being put in. When she rinsed me out I saw and was horrified. Not only did she bleach it all, she clearly missed spots so there are dark splotches on clumps of hair. Not only that but my hair was now several shades of amber and orange. My niece actually told me I looked like leaves. :s She didn't tone either which is STANDARD when I get highlights especially when I stress no warm tones. The cut wasn't good either to be honest. I have layers and with a peek-a-boo you are supposed to razor the ends to allow that color pop. Nope. Just a straight edge cut. I left and ran to Sally Beauty, bought myself some toner and some razor sheers. I've toned it twice and fixed the layers myself but the brassy look of my hair was still not good. I called and talked to one of the educators. She set me up to get some low lights put in for free to try and reduce the brassiness. I'm grateful that she was gracious enough to do this for me. How it will look when I'm done is a mystery to me. I'm kinda scared to go back to be honest. I honestly wish I could just get a refund, but you get what you pay for so it is what it is.

I went in last week to get my hair cut. I asked for shoulder length hair, with a short fringe and layers everywhere. My hair is thick and annoying so I told the girl multiple times I needed it thinner so I need layers. She cut it surprisingly fast, so I asked her if she actually did put layers in it. She said I would see them when my hair is dry. My hair is way longer than shoulder length, My bangs are past my eyes still, they go down to my mouth and hang in my face at work, and there are NO LAYERS IN MY HAIR WHATSOEVER. I completely wasted my money here. I have to go get my haircut somewhere else now because it looks terrible and I am supposed to be attending a wedding in 3 days!! UPDATE: I asked for a refund or for them to fix my hair. They refused to and told me its "good" that I am never coming back. Wow I cannot believe the horrible customer service....

KEEP IN MIND PEOPLE!!!! THIS IS A SCHOOL!!!! These people servicing you are LEARNING! So don't be so hard on them when criticizing them on their ability!! (Their attitude and customer service, on the other hand, is different) Give them a break! Jeez
