My experience at Academy DiCapelli as an esthetician in training was truly exceptional. I had the privilege of learning under the guidance of my instructor, Justine, whose attentiveness, professionalism, and dedication to her students made a lasting impression on me. Her passion for esthetics and education created a motivating and enriching classroom environment. I am also deeply grateful to Mrs. Anita, the director, for her leadership and ongoing support throughout my training. Her presence and encouragement played a vital role in my educational journey. Additionally, I’d like to extend my sincere appreciation to the enrollment team—Ms. Deb, Maria, and Sarah—for their warmth, efficiency, and unwavering support from day one. Their professionalism and commitment to helping students get started on the right path did not go unnoticed. I highly recommend Academy DiCapelli to anyone pursuing a career in esthetics. The staff and instructors are truly invested in your success.

I recently completed my esthetics program, and I am incredibly grateful for my experience at this school. Anita, the Director of Esthetics and my main instructor, truly puts her heart into teaching. She brings years of expertise and is deeply dedicated to helping us succeed. While she can be tough at times, it’s all to push us to be our best, and she treats each student like family. I have a strong background in beauty, with family members in the industry for decades, and I can confidently say Anita provides top-notch education, teaching you not only the basics but also how to make your services stand out. Dolly, my other instructor, is also wonderful. She has an incredible depth of knowledge in clinical treatments and waxing, and her kindness and patience make learning from her a great experience. Justine is another joy to be around. Her classes are fun and interactive, and she’s the waxing queen! Each instructor has their own strengths, and no matter who you learn from, you’ll walk away with valuable skills. The administrative team—Maria, Sarah, and Deb—were also nothing but helpful and incredibly welcoming! They made navigating the program and any questions or concerns so easy, and they genuinely care about the students. Balancing life, work, and school as an adult wasn’t easy, but it was so worth it. Completing this program feels like such an accomplishment, and I’m excited to carry forward everything I learned. Thank you to everyone at the school for this fantastic experience!
