Paul Mitchell The School

After many years of having the same hair style, I decided to change it up. I’ve always been pretty skeptical about who cuts my hair, because I’ve had some bad experiences in the past. Then I saw one of Rio de Armas’ post on Instagram @makeupnhairbyrio and I decided to give her a try, since all her work looked amazing… Long story short, I found my permanent hair stylist! She did a better job than most stylists I’ve had in the past from reputable companies like Master Cuts and Visible Changes, and it was not as expensive as them either! I live in Sugar Land and have to drive all the way up there for my appointments, but it’s worth it. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would recommend her. I promise you won’t regret it!

Came in to get a keratin treatment and a hair cut from Kim #28.
This is not my first time at PM school, so I know what to expect– great guidance from the teachers, a great service, a look I’ll love, and keeping in mind that the process takes a bit longer than other hair salons, because the students are there to learn. The entire process took 2 hours, that’s two washes with treatment & drying seat in between and the haircut.
I live my new fresh haircut that Kim gave me (:

Sat there for 4 hours. Total cost was $ 53 Fyi Celebrating my birthday the following day. The student in the level 2 section was sweet and with the guidance of her teacher I felt safe. I came in requesting ombré. I have used box color for the past year light ash brown. I explained exactly what i wanted. Pretty much a light ash brown ombré thing. I am Latina with a tanned skin color. The girl convinced me to try a different a different technique. She said she had to lift the color in order to achieve this. I dont know what that means. I was never told that she was bleaching my hair! Bleach came out of her mouth when my head was completely covered. Long story short. My hair is the color of a shiny penny, pipi longstocking. I sat there for 4 hours she placed 2 toners in my hair. It looks completely hideous especially with my dark brown eyebrows. When asked if I was satisfied. I said NO! The (teacher) suggested I come back another time and maybe they could fix it and of course I would have to pay for what they jacked up?!. Or I could just learn to love it. I want to shave my hair off! I spoke to a manager she said this is a school so I guess this means they are not liable for what there students jack up? She said they could not get me in until next Saturday since the level 2 students will not be in on this Sat. So a LESS experienced student can work on my hair if I didn’t want to wait. This was a horrible experience. I will continue to spread the word. Your better off paying full price at a decent salon.

This was my first visit and I was treated wonderfully, it just took all day. my apt was at 1:15pm, they called me up at 1:30 and I finished at 6:15. I had two women in the beginning start my hair and another 2 finish the services. everything was fine I just wish it wouldn’t have taken all day. But I understand that these are students and they are learning. I am happy and I’ll come back again since they are right around the corner.
