Wasn’t happy with the waxing course and have expressed my concerns over email. I travelled from Liverpool to London to come home home feeling deflated and disappointed. I did however attend the intimate waxing course in Leeds and couldn’t fault the tutor (Rebecca) she was fantastic, when leaving that course I felt confident in moving forward.

Thank you for taking time to leave a review Nicola. We are sorry to hear the Waxing course did not fully meet your expectations and would be keen to provide additional support as you may need, should you still require this. Hopefully our team have addressed your concerns already but if you still need any further support in regards to moving forward to offer your waxing treatments, please don't hesitate to contact our Support team on freephone 0800 999 2277. Many thanks!

It didn't as I felt that the tutour did not have a great attitude and her knowledge of medical conditions was limited.

I attended two courses which were both good, although the facilities were limited.

Nice trainer but Acrylic training takes more than one day. So I've invested a further £500 elsewhere perfecting the art. Good if you just need basics and qualifications for insurance

The course overall was good but I think it needs more time to practice what we learn and better tools.. Regards

Indian Head Massage Course : Tutor read verbatim from work book and did not seem to expect any of the students to have studied the content before the course. Felt course was expensive for input received.

Not enough time to practice on some of the courses and felt rushed. But have done a few courses and would use again but feel my skills need more development

Had a fabulous day learning gel nail polish application. Tutor was friendly and so very helpful. Gave me so many ideas and help. Thank you so much I will come again. I've come away with full knowledge and ready to start immediately with confidence.

The course has been very helpful and exciting. Very much of an eye-opener. Hoping to put what I have learnt into practice. Explanation very straight forward and very explanatory.

Really enjoyed the facial tutorial, did not feel confused, found the teacher's step by step guidance helpful. Sharon was very patient and soft spoken, so asking questions was not difficult. Would love to come back again to do further courses.

I booked with the Beauty Academy to do an NVQ Level 2 in nail services and although I thought the teaching was excellent and the tutors were very knowledgable, I was not ever told by the Beauty Academy that although I did my training in Leeds (which is where I live) the assessment days would be in Birmingham or London. There would be 3 assessment days and after paying £1000 for the course who then could afford to take 3 days off work each day paying for fuel to either Birmingham or London and also taking a model with you each day who may also have to take the days off work? I'm very disappointed with the Beauty Academy and would never book a course with them again or recommend them to anyone.

I attended a one day manicure and pedicure course with the Beauty Academy which I absolutely loved and learnt so much. A few weeks later I attended a UV gel nails extensions course and felt that a one day course was not suitable to learn all of the Health and Safety and technique aspects required to be able to go out as a qualified technician and complete sets of nails on clients. There are so many aspects to using nail extensions that one day cannot possibly allow a newcomer to learn, digest and feel confident to carry this treatment out on people. I left the course overwhelmed and sadly it has put me off pursuing being a nail technician as a change of career, which is hugely disheartening. The tutor was very friendly but at times I felt so confused but she was patient and supported me throughout. I don't feel like I've earnt my qualification and without paying out a fortune in supplies and insurance to go out and practice on friends, I can't imagine how I will build up my confidence and technique to start this up as a business which I was so looking forward to doing. I seriously think the course should be offered over at least two days, especially as it costs well over £150.
