“I just completed my hours for the esthetics programs and I had a great time at school. Ms. Dita is the best teacher I have ever had! She is so knowledgeable and loves her students. The girls and staff there became family, made a lot of friends. I left with a great education, feeling ready to take my boards. I have a wonderful resume completed and have multiple job offers lined up. I look forward to what the future holds. P.S. Free Practice on each other during the program was a great perk!”
