The Salon Professional Academy St. Louis completely exceeded my expectations! From the moment I stepped in, I knew I was in the right place. Pitman, one of my favorite educators, really helped me discover the importance of creativity alongside technical skills. She taught us that to stand out in the beauty industry, we must not only master our craft but also keep up with trends and continually innovate.The camaraderie among students was incredible, and the tracking system put in place made our days feel like real salon work. I feel confident in my ability to create stunning looks for clients. Additionally, our connections with local salons for job placements made finding employment a breeze. L’Oreal Professional's influence in our curriculum was a major plus, ensuring we were well-versed in the latest products. I absolutely loved my experience here!

As a recent graduate of The Salon Professional Academy, I can confidently say that this program prepared me for so much more than just technical skills. L’Oreal Professional's association added a layer of prestige and quality to our training. I highly recommend this Academy to anyone looking to make a mark in the beauty industry! My favorite educator (Ms. Burke) opened my eyes to the business side of beauty, emphasizing essential topics like client relations, marketing, and building a brand. Her passion for the industry inspired many of us to think beyond the chair.The mentorship opportunities were outstanding, with educators and professionals providing insights that you won’t find in textbooks. The tracking system was fantastic—it created an authentic salon atmosphere that made learning enjoyable and relevant. Plus, the Academy's strong ties with an array of salons helped facilitate placement after graduation, making the transition into my first job smooth.
