Great bargain I have had my hair and nails done several times here. The waiting area is comfortable. The front desk staff is usually very busy. Students are personable and always offer coffee or water. Services take longer than they should, but good results at a great price. Parking is sparse.
Good cut, awful color After asking for chocolate brown hair, I ended up with BLACK hair. It was supposed to be dark brown with a tint of red, not black with a blue tint. The cut turned out fine, but I could've done a better dye job with boxes on my own because at least I would've had full coverage. As it is now there are chunks of brown in odd places. The student didn't seem to care what se was doing and the instructor was so bogged down with requests that they were just rushing to get through everyone. I would recommend the... read more
Dont let the name fool you. The school is not about teaching students, it's about milking them for contract hours so that they can make additional money. They lose track of important tests, they lose hours that you clock in and then penalize you for not proving that they are wrong. They use the Gene Juarez name to attract. The only good thing they do is prepare you for your boards because they want their students to appear really knowledgeable when you go take your tests. They allow some students to do certain services on th... read more
Pretty good for what you pay for.... The price is excellent since this is not a professional salon, but a training facility. However, since it is a training facility there is room for imperfection. I went to get an updo for my long hair and it ended up looking really nice. However it took 5 hours. 5 hours to put my hair up and put a couple of curls in. I would recommend this place, just be warned that the people are still learning.
good and cheap Yeah so they are learning, but you get a great hair cut/service for under 10 bucks and they have their instructor check it ou so it's rare that they mess up!
a little something to think about a little FYI before you visit ... your going to a school to have your hair done ... meaning a student is doing your hair. The school has rules as to what they will and will not let a student do to someones hair. Most likely your service will be slow because of all the jumps the student has to go through to get a service checked as well as being slow because they are perfecting their technique. Also please remember that if they are unable to do something its probably not the students fault be... read more
Great Price but Slow! I ventured to the Gene Juarez Academy after getting my hair done at their main salon and realizing how expensive it was! I was very pleased with the results at the Academy but it did take forever. I expected that with a school but you have to be prepared. You can get everything done here from colors to nails. Just make sure you slot out most of the day to spend here!
Bullyisum from students I went to this school 20 years ago when Gene Juarez owned it. He sold the name now it is a horrible school. They do not teach precision haircuts. Just go look at the quality of cuts from the customers leaving. They have teachers that went from beauty school,teachers training to the classroom. no experience in salon work. There is a tremendous problem with bullysum, predjudism, harassment from teachers and students. When a students report this 4 times with no attempt to resolve these issues from the st... read more
worst service and management ever. I took my daughter in this past Saturday to have her hair done. her appointment was at 2:30pm and she was not done until after 7 pm. I was quated a price when I made the appointment and then was quoted a much much higher price when we got there. I was informed by a manager that they wait until you get there and then tell you the correct price which is over double what you are quoted on the phone. My daughter wanted her hair cut and layered and then black on the top and blonde in the bottom.... read more
