I love that its less expensive but your helping the students learn and gain experience so that they are prepared for working in a real shop... remember thry are students so some times are better than others.. but to be honest i have had way worse experiences paying actual shops more money for a terrible job done.. Love this place! #before&after

I had a great experience attending this school! Instructors are dedicated in your learning and Brian is always there to help with anything needed. I’m currently licensed and working as a Nail Tech in Scottsdale! Thank you Academy of Nail Technology❤️❤️

The owner Brian portrays that he is a certified nail technician HE IS NOT! Brian is not knowledgeable in anything other than taking your money! There is absolutely no follow through with you as a student. When I started my classes there were instructor licenses posted on the wall of people who did not work there at the time. Do not waste your $ at this trade school!

My go-to spa pedicure spot. Remember they are students so it takes longer, but they are open to trying different nail things.

I am writing this review from a students point of view. I attended this school last year. Let me start by saying, I DID NOT expect nail school to be this way. When I first started school, there was only 1 instructor for both AM and PM students. The instructor was amazing and so sweet. Since she was EXTREMELY busy, all the time. She had to handle customers and students who worked on the floor, AND teach the new students which was 3 other girls and I. That instructor quit literally like 2-3 weeks after I started school. From that point the owner hired random part time instructors. These instructors did not help me whatsoever. They were mostly out with the students who were on the floor working on clients. Meanwhile me and the new girls were just in the classroom doing “practical” which is basically practice on nails. Practicing isn’t learning anything new. I was in that classroom for 2 months doing “practicals” not learning a thing. I swear I have learned more watching YouTube. Fast forward to may (after the lockdown) things changed. They seemed to be more organized and on top of things at that point. Which made me angry because when I was a new student I basically got ignored and was in the classroom for months just practicing. Now I see all these new students actually learning and they actually have attention when I just got ignored. Towards the end of my time being there, one of the instructors Ms. Razo was so sweet and attentive. I feel like she’s the only one there who LOVES there job and tries to help everyone. As for Ms. Tammy... umm.. for example, one day I was sitting at a station and she asked me to move because a new student was going to sit there. I did as she asked and I moved to another station. Tell me why NOBODY sat at that station she asked me to move from. It was empty all day. Why did she ask me to move?!? I have no idea 🤷🏽‍♀️ I am extremely shy and suffer from depression/anxiety so it’s hard to speak up. I did see another student tell her off when she asked her to move as well. In conclusion, I am only speaking from my experience which was horrible (I guess I didn’t get lucky and started school at a very bad time). I did hear plenty of students complain on how unorganized the school is.

They do a great job for students! Dont expect perfection everytime - they are learning. Definitely a great price for the services. They even played with my kids this time since my babysitter cancelled last minute!

This is a review to let everyone know that the head instructor Ms.Flores has resigned as of 2/25/20. Even though her pictures are still up on this schools social media, the schools web page is not up to date. Its misleading to have photos of the previous instructor if she is no longer working there.

Review №23

It is okay, but it seems like a big drama soap opera in there versus a school. I have been going in there to try and get certain services done and it either gets avoided or Im lied to about who, what, and can do designs or this service. Its bullshit! I also have called and never received a call back. I cant wait until I can afford my own nail products. I am done with these so called nail technicians and nail salons. As far as I am concerned every nail place in the state of Arizona needs to be down. They all have and are breaking so many health codes for sure.

Came with a groupon for a mani pedi for two, was booked same day and had an excellent time with my partner. Both technicians for my hands and feet were very focused, and my nails look excellent.

Review №25

My daughter purchased a Groupon to get a gel manicure and spa pedicure from this company. She called multiple times to arrange an appointment but was always told all their Groupon appointments were filled. The day before her Groupon expired I called to arrange an appointment. They had one at 10:30 until they asked me if it was a Groupon then, as usual, they had none. I told her I had wanted to come in as well and they miraculously found 2 openings from cancellations within our couple minute conversation. They redeemed her Groupon during our conversation so its now not even worth the money paid for it. Upon arriving I told them I had pulled my back and could not sit through a two hour appointment but my daughter wanted to get her nails done. She said my daughter would have to pay $45 even though it was her Groupon. She said they only reason they were able to get my daughter in was because I was going to be paying full price for their services.Not only that but they were having my daughter sign a release saying she knew they were students doing the services and if they did a poor job then too bad.The woman (boss, owner?) was condescending towards my daughter and flat out rude to me. It reflects poorly on them as a service and can only make you wonder how and what they teach the students.This business has NO business selling their services on Groupon if they are unable to honor them and I would be wary of them as a school who should not only teach the how to of the services but how to interact with customers.

I took my sister here for her birthday, and she had Yalda and my sister LOVED her nails. It looked like a professional had done it, she did not believe that Yalda was a student. Shell be back soon and get them done by Yalda again. Ask for her.

Review №28

I originally called about the Groupon then asked for the original price which was only a few dollars more so I was able to get in that day without the groupon. *They will only take so many groupon deals a day due to availability because this is a school.* Sudents are learning so it may take longer which is why they may be booked out to give proper time for an enjoyable experience. I booked with Corie & she did such an amazing job sculpting my nails with no electric tools...SKILLS! Instructor was great checking every step and hands-on & I paid less than $40 for a full set & pedi. So just wait your turn & book early if you have a groupon...worth the wait!
