“I highly recommend Stage one the hair school! I have learned so much since I’ve started. The instructors are wonderful! The Pivot Point system they use to teach you about the fundamentals of hair and make up, skin and nails, make it so easy to follow and retain the information! If you are wanting to make a career in cosmetology, I suggest you call and set up that appointment to meet with the director! Who, is by far the most positive person.”
