I had a basic facial done with Ruxandra and I had an amazing experience. I went in with my skin feeling full and dirty and when she was done, it felt super clean and refreshing. And how she massaged my face was very relaxing. I also liked how she explained to me what skincare routine I should have at home to help me clarify my skin. I will be recommending her and Milan salon to everyone. 😊

I want to express my heartfelt thanks to Ms. Jessica and Ms. Amber for their incredible support during the enrollment process. They made everything so simple and smooth with their kindness, professionalism, patience, and clear communication they made everything incredibly easy and stress-free. They were both knowledgeable and kind, answering all my questions and guiding me through every step. I truly appreciate the help and information they provided, they made what could have been a complicated process feel seamless. I’m so excited to be starting the esthetician program and can’t wait to see what’s next on this new journey for me. Thanks again to both Ms.Jessica and Ms.Amber for helping me take this first step with confidence!
