Customer Reviews:

“The course content was great, it flowed effortlessly from one machine to the next completing a great facial with electrical equipment. Each machine was introduced with simplified, easy to understand explanations of the machine. The Instructor seems highly knowledgeable and a great communicator. I loved the ending where the Instructor took time to wish her client well and the constant professional attitude towards her client throughout. Thank you” Millissa R.

“The course was very informative and detailed. …Most schools do not go into as much detail with these machines. My school didn’t cover any of this except the mag light and steamer.” Renee K.
