Would recommend

Returned for another training course and once again had an amazing time whilst learning a new skill. Very relaxed, and extremely friendly environment. Informative and practical. Kerry is a great tutor, teaching not only technical skills but also sharing personal experience from many years of working in the industry.

Fantastic experience!

Kerry has been teaching me over the last few days, and then I have met Chris today and she will be taking me for a few classes over the coming month. I have to say my experience so far has been outstanding, the class is relaxed which helps settle any nerves, but it is extremely informative whilst being easy to follow. Both instructors have been absolutely fantastic and I am very much looking forward to my next courses and being able take my learning forward and build a career in the beauty industry.

Today I had my HD brows course and as my tutors i had Kerry and Chris. They are amazing tutors that work so well together and that makes us students learn even more. Learning with one great tutor I had learnt so much but having two was an even better experience apart from that, they are both lovely.

I had an amazing experience completing both the beginner and advanced intimate waxing courses.

Anjula is incredibly knowledgeable, polite, kind, and was understanding throughout the entire learning process. Her extensive experience in the field really showed, and she explained everything clearly and with great patience. She shared so many helpful tips and techniques that really boosted my confidence

I felt fully supported and confident at every stage of the training. I would highly recommend these courses to anyone looking to learn or advance their waxing expertise.

Just finished my Brow Lamination/Tint/Wax and Shaping course. I had a great day of learning, practice session went well.
The class was small and intimate. I now feel confident to add this service to my list of services.
The tutor Kerry was fun, informative and overall a beauty.
Thank you for an enjoyable learning day!

Very worth it.

I have the absolute pleasure of having Kerry as my tutor for the day. Wow. What a phenomenal teacher. Not only was she incredibly friendly, but she was very considerate and efficient in her teaching. We worked through the theory quickly and were able to begin the practical. I had an amazing time.

Brilliant Kerry

I have done the waxing for beginners with Kerry. I highly recommend her as a teacher. You would absolutely love the course she is teaching. She was very supportive, explained everything very well. She gave me a lot of confidence to start waxing as a side business.
