I had a facial done by Tiffany. She did an amazing job, I’ve never felt more relaxed in my life. There was no point in time during my facial that I felt as if she didn’t know what she was doing. I definitely will be returning to her!

Kayla provided the best manicure and pedicure I have ever had (including those given by professionals at high-class spas with decades of experience!) She was speedy yet professional, personable yet respectful of privacy. I would have paid double the cost for her services! I also appreciated the helpful desk staff and the relaxed atmosphere of the school. The services are a bargain and you leave feeling good about giving students the practice they need to succeed..

I had a great experience with Fernanda Diaz at Empire Beauty School. She gave me a relaxing facial and I felt so peace. Not only did I get to relax but I also left with a face that felt super fresh, clean, and smooth. When I got home my daughter said that my skin looked so good and that she could tell the difference. I will be continuing to see Fernanda for ongoing facials! Thank you Fernanda!!
