Place was disgusting, a friend of mine went to school there and I wanted to see myself being very industry involved. Tamara is unethical, the student she overcharged me with did not have her esthetician license which was shocking being it’s an advanced program. I asked for a licensed student and out of 15 people packed in this small room no one had their license. I was told they were getting their “masters” and state license at the same time. Master esthetics is non existent in CA and most of the country. At that point another assistant walked out and they began to speak in Russian, which I’m fluent in. They were saying discussing things about me, the students and laughed. I was then told by Tamara she is a doctor and she assured me everything was okay. The next girl that did my facial had no experience and told me they just have to be careful because they aren’t licensed yet. Then went on to tell me she was happy to pay more money because she didn’t have to do her required 500 hours. This place is everything my colleague told me. Tamara is not the founder or CEO and on my friends “completed hours” for state board was a name of a school she’d never been or heard of, a teacher signature she had never heard of or met and a location she’d never been to. Don’t go here for services they are not practicing minimal standards. Do not go here for school it was a nightmare for my friend she was fraudulently sold something non existent. Furthermore, after only 200 hours they handed her the illegal form and told her she was done.She paid top dollar and was lied and manipulated to. When Tamara and her partner caught on that she knew they put her in a situation where if she told, all her fellow students wouldn’t be able to get licensed or their money back. She also could not in good conscious follow through and take the state board exams under the presences. She spent 14,000 cash and got no training, no as promised tutoring for state board, no license. She had to repay and go to an actual school. She was told nothing but lies from the day she walked in to look until she left. This is not a school this is a fraudulent business acting as not only a school an advanced school. The place is filthy, unprofessional and costs as much as an ordinary spa. I noticed at least 7 things immediately that were hazardous and far from state board standards. Besides the unlicensed, uneducated “students” performing services on actual clients. Peels, microdermabrasion, waxing and double dipping. Someone needs to be ethical and let the truth out.

Attending this school has got me my dream job!!!!! Now I work for a dermatologist and medical cosmetic doctor! I highly recommend this school to everyone interested in a higher level of education in esthetics! Join and start your journey to your dream job too!

My faith in Ms Tamara and Tatyannas vision served a profound experience for me as I was switching careers. Their actions and leadership in this school / program gave me the confidence to obtain my License in under a year. They translate a genuine helping hand and passion for what they do. I have always had a great sense of guidance on their behalf and needless to say having my best interest at heart the entire time. I am throughly impressed with Ms Tamaras level of knowledge in esthetics and the best thing is that she is always within arms reach incase I ever need her. In return I have had the confidence to go out on my own and establish myself as a business owner with their help. One of the best investments I ever did for myself is attending here. You cant get this level of education in esthetics anywhere else!

I attended this school over a year ago and had a wonderful experience. Im not sure what Chet in the above review above is talking about bc this school does not do hair only skin. I learned so much from Tamara! Right out of school I had enough skills and confidence to open my own spa with a fellow student and friend of mine.

Best School Ever!!

Wonderful!
