NBA Review
Been at this course for a few weeks now and I am enjoying every minute of it. My tutor and all of the staff are very lovely and helpful people. It is has been very educational and I'm learning so much already.
Great place to learn
Loving every minute learning here. All the staff have been great from day one and I have an amazing tutor helping me learn more. Would highly recommend to anybody.
I am enjoying the course
I am enjoying the course, a lot of paperwork and assignments but get the opportunity to do both academic and practical parts of the course and experiment with different looks. The tutor Sarah is always on hand to help and guides with tutorials showing how to do things before we give it a go.

Wouldn’t return after being messed around 3 times
Olivia and Steph are the loveliest girls you’ll meet. They were both welcoming and put me at ease, however I’m giving a two star as management discriminate and clearly don't have there act together will mess you about and say nothing was passed on to the them, after they were aware of a situation 5 weeks prior to the course. If the review was just for Olivia and Stephanie they would have gotten a 5

Love it!!!
Only studied here 3 weeks on Tuesday and i love it already! All the staff are lush they will go out there way to help you no matter how big or small, it can be intimidating or nervous to start something new or out your comfort zone but the staff make you feel at ease they will guide and support you throughout the course. My tutor Rachel is amazing. Ive done my beauty therapy level two so i know a little bit already but im always learning new tips and tricks. I am currently doing level three nail technology and would 100% recommend anyone looking in to this course to do it. I will be coming back to do another course as its the best education ive been trough. What makes it better is that every one is treated with respect unlike a previous course ive done with another collage. if you make a mistake they will help you perfect it instead of failing you or stating the obvious that you've made a mistake. The classes are also smaller witch makes it easier for the tutor to focus on you more. The theory can be boring but they make it as fun and interesting as possible. They do offer a few other courses like make up artistry, brow lamination, waxing and massage and much more. If your looking for a course id definitely come here as its the best academy in the north east!!!
