Guest and Child Accompaniment Policy Statement:

We understand that bringing your child or companion to your appointment is convenient; however, our students are perfecting their career with chemicals and dangerously hot tools that reach in excess of 450 degrees. We are a very busy student salon, and simply cannot allocate space for a guest. Our students pay tuition to learn their craft, and should not have their attention diverted to a guest or child. Their attention should solely be you and your beauty goals. We appreciate your help in this endeavor. If you have a companion or child with you for your appointment, and they are not receiving a service of equal length, rescheduling will be required.

Jessie
Cosmetology Student
Attending nail school was one of the best decisions I've ever made...the education I received went far beyond polish and technique, I learned about nail health, sanitation, customer service, and even the business side of the beauty industry...that foundation gave me the tools I needed to not only succeed , but to thrive. Today I'm proud to say I have grown into a management position leading a talented team of nail techs, mentoring new artists, guide the salon, and working with clients...it's more than a training program- it's a launchpad.
