My time was well spent here! The school is very accommodating to my schedule due to my work schedule. They pushed us to our limits in every aspect of this program. One thing about all of these instructors, they will meet you where you are at & help you get the job done! Their main priority is to get us not only prepped for state board but prepared for the journey in this beauty industry. Life is what you make it & Blue Cliff has been a home away from home.
