Florida Academy has been an incredible place to learn barbering, and I’m truly grateful to be a student here. The instructors genuinely care about your success and take the time to make sure you understand not just the how, but the why behind everything. Ms. Penni, our general science teacher, does an amazing job breaking down the science side of barbering in a way that’s easy to understand and actually interesting. Mr. Craig, who has been my taper cuts and fades, is top-tier. His attention to detail, real-world experience, and hands-on teaching style have helped me level up my skills tremendously. Mrs. Dee, our foundational cuts teacher, is amazing at building strong fundamentals. She emphasizes proper technique, structure, and precision, making sure you develop a solid base that everything else builds off of. Overall, Florida Academy provides a positive, professional environment that truly prepares you for a real career in barbering. If you’re serious about barbering, this is the place to be.
