Marinello Schools of Beauty Salon

I give Marinello 5 stars because the students are very friendly and talented. I got a deluxe gel French manicure ($ 14) and a deluxe pedicure ($$ 13). Unfortunately they were out of while gel polish but Chelsea did a pretty good job using a different color. Needs a little more practice to make sure the entire nail tip is covered, only two very small spots no one would ever notice but me). The down side is it took three hours for a mani/​pedi. But their attitude was exceptional! It’s not their fault as they have to keep running around for supplies. But very worth the wait if you have the time. I’m going back in 2 weeks for full highlights ($ 44).
Hair cut: $ 5. Makeup application: $ 12. In LA that would cost $ 125. Nail polish change: $ 2. Highly recommended!

i used to be a student here. some the staff are very unprofessional & gossip about students to other students. i had to switch schools because a member of the staff & a student had spread very bad rumors about me. i had found out after i had left it was the financial aid advisor, latrice. but other the teachers are good & know what they were talking about. most of them work in salons when theyre not teaching which i think is good so we can hear someones personal experience of working in a salon. i just feel like they only teach us basic things & not things we should know (example: ombres, mens fades cuts). they are also willing to help you find a job after you recieve your license. they cant guarantee you’ll get hired but they will help you atleast get an interview.

Customer service here is absolutely horrible. Ive been here about 4 times. The only reason I return is because the student who does my hair, Ms. Jennifer Herrada, does a FANTASTIC job. Everytime ive been here ive been treated horribly by staff. They are rude, will see you walk in and ignore you, as well as over charge. Every time I get a quote on my hair, they raise the price in the middle of getting my hair done or at checkout. Last time I came in I was quoted 30 $ and in the process of dyeing my hair I was charged an extra 25 $ because of my hair length. HELLLO you knew how long my hair was when you quoted me. As I was getting my hair washed a student at the chair next to me soaked me and my phone with water and did not apologize. And then she stomped away upset because I was upset. Wow. My aunt had her hair done here a few months ago and they ended up overcharging her as well in the middle of having her hair done, she had only brought the money they quoted her on. When she told them she didnt have enough the checkout girl was very rude and kept talking about her situation loudly, multiple times as if trying to embarrass her. Tisk Tisk not impressed marinello

I’d give it no stars if I could. Made an appointment and failed to mention they would be on lunch and the programs would be shifting. I’m sitting here waiting for two hours before I’m actually seen. The lame ass hairdresser took two hours, burned my scalp, ruined my color and gave the worst blow out I’ve ever seen. They had the nerve to try and charge me extra for color. Using two tubes of salon quality color is more than enough for my hair so why would she go back in the middle of the session and use a third tube ?! Rude staff that ignores and talks about you with an equally unprofessional teacher. Worst campus yet.

If I could I would try and Give this place negative stars but seeing as I can not 1 star it is. First off my girlfriend and I came here from out of town and thought we would make a day trip out of it and made our appointment for 5 pm. We got here at 5pm for our appointment we didn’t mind. We only came in to get a pedicure for both of us and to get my girls hair colored we waited for 2.5hrs before my girlfriend got seen and they kept running out of paint for her hair. Next thing you know they tell us that they ran out of foot exfoliator an hr into getting her hair dyed and they have the audacity to ask to charge extra because they ran out of dye and they needed more. Suffice to say I recommend that no one come to this shit hole of a beauty college/​joke of a salon. I swear to zombie Jesus it would have been easier to have dyed my girls hair myself or train a f***ing to do it and it would have taken less time. Don’t come here waste of time I don’t give a shit how cheap it is unless you like wasting your whole day waiting to have a very simple cosmetic thing done go somewhere else and have someone else do it and spend the couple extra bucks to have it done by someone who not only knows what they are doing but will do it when you come in ON TIME FOR YOUR GOD DAMN APPOINTMENT.

an instructor cut my hair twice and did a bad job, i am a regular, she did a really bad hair cut, the first time she did my hair, i had shown her a picture how i wanted my hair to be cut and it was nothing like the picture, when she was done with my hair she didn’t even offer me a mirror to look at the back of my hair so when i got home i took a closer look in the mirror and it was horrible, i was so angry that i wanted to cry and i did, and on the second time i told her exactly how i wanted my hair to be cut, i knew it was her but stupid me i wanted to give her a second chance, so she ”the instructor” was showing a student how to cut hair ”my hair” and just to make it clear the student didn’t cut my hair at all, it was the instructor this whole time cutting my hair teaching the student just to make it clear on that so i just had to ask for someone else to do my hair, so that someone else fix my hair a little she couldn’t do much cuzz the instructor already had cut my hair to much, this was yesterday morning and if i knew she was going to be in i wouldn’t have went yesterday. i am thinking about not being a regular no more.

Everyone does a very good job, it’s just hard that they take SOOO long for simple tasks. Just left and it took over an hour for a haircut … But it’s cheap!

First I was stuck there was beginning to end for five hours.
I went there thinking to pamper myself one day. The girl who did my hair caked it on with too much hairspray and it fell after ten minutes. My pedicure that I was overly excited for was horrible. I had some of the scrub on my legs still and she never cleaned it off. The full set was an impulse and I was excited when they were done but when I looked at them in the light later on, they were sloppy at best. They came off without trying the next day and I was pissed.
They tried to fix my hair but there was so much hairspray that it got stuck to the flat iron and the wand they tried to use. They washed but after the blow dry they did not flat iron my roots since they were curling it with the wand. Too much hairspray again and I could not get a brush through it. I had to wash my hair twice to get it to look like it normally was. Even then I had to wash it two more days to get all of the oil and grease out of it.
I have to say this is one of the worse places I have been. I would have liked to have had a better experience but I will more than likely never return and never have my friends go either.

I went here while my friend Aquila was in school also there was a special going on, I believe it was $ 28.00 for hair cu, t color, and blow dry. I came in with dry dull brownish red hair, and left with awesome deep red shiny soft hair. So needless to say, she did a great job! Being students I estimated it would take a while so I arrived at 10 am, unfortunately I was there till closing. My poor butt got numb but it was totally worth it and I got to reconnect with a great friend, I recommend coming here if you have a friend in beauty school, and you have an open schedule.

Great school! the teachers are understanding and the students are hard working and eager to learn.
