I went in for a manicure. It was $22 for gel. The student who did my service was kind and smart. She did a good job. These are students and services take a little longer. If your are looking for perfection and in and out (this is not the place for you) if you have time and want to help the students practice their skills give it a try!!

Stay away from this school at all costs, This so called Paul Mitchell school is only out to TAKE your money, I was in the esthetician program for a few months before dropping out, I wish I would have seen more REAL reviews on this program as it is trash. When applying my whole FASFA covered the whole program plus extra, When I went to check on my financial aid I was told I then owed more money? Seems scammy to me. I also never received my extra FASFA money that I was promised during signing this extra paperwork they needed for confirmation on my FASFA. The teachers for the program I did barley taught me anything, Treated me like a child, and had extremely unfair rules and played favorites, Also to add one of the teachers stay getting drunk on the job and was caught in the classroom This is what you’re paying for. There were times when students made complaints to Holly which she did nothing with. They will not teach you how to do make-up here, All they do is play YouTube videos for you to watch, and if you’re looking to do eyelash extensions save your money and take a private class with someone who will actually teach you, You will not get certified here. Everyday we were out of something zero towels, products to use and even beds were constantly full so you couldn’t learn properly. The class and the room where guests come in are in the same room, DO NOT GET FACIALS HERE go somewhere else. All the other negative reviews about this school are correct, save yourself the time, stress and money! The classrooms are crowded and teachers could careless about the students they teach as long as the school gets there money, I wish I could leave zero stars. Horrible experience do not recommend.

The teachers and staff at this school are extremely unprofessional. Rules and regulations change depending on what teacher youre asking. They most definitely only care about the money they make and socializing with other teachers, staff, and other favorite students. Clocking out for the final time was a total joke because holly couldnt get me a progress report so that I could count how many hours I had left. I ended up clocking out 2 hours after I was supposed for reasons as simple as doing your math correctly. Do not spend your money going to this school. Everything to do with this school is a joke.

Being a new resident of Colorado, I was in search of a new stylist. After a week of trying to get an appointment with several stylists in the area, they either didnt return calls or didnt have availability. I met a woman and loved her color, she said she had it done at the Paul Mitchell School.I have to say it was the best haircut and color I have ever had done. It takes a little longer than typical salons but that didnt bother me. Taylor was very professional, very kind and did a outrageous job! She will do wonderful in the future, creative! Found my place!

Scheduling is a nightmare. When my cousin went to school there the management and scheduler were great! Now…not so much!About 6 months ago they rescheduled me 5 times! I finally got in and got my hair done and it was ok….took 6 hours for a deep condition and trim but they are students.Decided to give them another shot since it does support education. I scheduled yesterday and just now they called again and said they scheduled me wrong. They tried to make my appts at different times in day making it inconvenient and me driving back and forth. I just canceled all together.I hope they get their * together so we can support these students!

If I could give this school zero stars, I would. My daughter went here to become an esthetician and was severely disappointed in all aspects of this program and establishment. Firstly, the kit that she paid over $1000 for was subpar at best. This school later proceeded to try and wrangle her into paying extra for “upgrades” such as a better eyelash extension kit and tabletop galvanic machine, that my daughter then found on other websites for half the price. No one ever communicated with each other regarding the staff. It took over three weeks for her to receive transcripts so she could take her state boards. Product and utensils were constantly out. There were times where there were no clean towels or sheets for her to perform services. This program is extremely understaffed for the amount of students they accept. It is obviously all for the money. She feels she learned the absolute bare minimum, when other schools provide more advanced practices such as microdermabrasion, dermaplaning, and chemical peels, she did not receive any of these. If you go here, you will have to pay out of pocket just to be competitive in the workforce with other esthetician’s who learned these in their school. Please consider another school if you are looking to be an esthetician.

Don’t waste your $ by coming to this school for your education. It is so horrible. The policies are constantly changing. Most of the staff is horrible (mostly Kristine, nail teacher.) The esthetics program is actual trash. The kits are not worth what they make you pay. We never have the products we need and new girls drop our left and right. Our service room is IN our classroom (for esthetics) which makes for a not so relaxing time for guests. They treat us like elementary students w rules like no eating. Everyone I’ve spoken to here hates it. Seriously. Stay far awayyy

I had such a good experience getting my curly haircut today. Getting a good curly cut is such a gamble. I’ve paid experience stylists five times as much as I had to pay today. Larry, along with tips from the teacher, gave me a fantastic cut and experience today. I’m going back for some highlights next week.

Normally I have a great experience . Today not so much. The color is great...but I paid for a cut and style. The cut is nothing like what I showed the stylist and the instructor...and the style consisted of blow drying. Needless to say I did not tip.

Have been a customer for around two years now and never disappointed! Everyone is friendly and, between the instructors and the students, I have never been disappointed with the results. That goes for haircuts, pedicures and facials - all big fun! They are doing a good job of navigating the corona virus too.

Review №18

I went in asking for my bangs trimmed and to add shorter layers to my hair which was down to the middle of my back. The student did NOT listen and cut at least 6 inches off my hair after I repeatedly told her I did not want short hair and no length removed just more layers added. Four different people total tried working on my hair and the leader didn’t come until the end and didn’t fix the uneven layers either. I left with my hair at my SHOULDERS. Beyond upset at this and would not recommend. Had to go get my hair completely redone by a professional after the butchering.

First, Sandra at the front desk was phenomenal! Due to an unexpected trip, I called to see if I could reschedule for an earlier date. She graciously told me there wasnt availability, but advised I try calling the next day in case of a cancellation. The next day, she was able to fit me in, for which Im deeply grateful. My hair stylist was new and tentative, but the woman who instructed her (I believe her name was Arleen/Arlene) was amazing. She patiently guided her throughout my cut (and built up her confidence) and truly did an outstanding job on my hair.

I came in for hair services today (6-6). I had a really good experience. Robin #3025 did my hair and I was a little concerned about color but once I got out in light I absolutely love it. I want to thank her and the staff for their kindness and support. If you want a good hair dresser ask for Robin.

I started going to Paul Mitchell about a year ago. My first visit wasnt so good but the staff worked hard to get someone that could correct the too dark of color. I have had several phase 2 students since and have been pleased. I have recently had Roxanne and she has been the best. She is a natural and has really good chair side manors and knows what she is doing. She is going to be very successful in her field! Love her!!

I have been twice, both times they have done a great job! Once for highlights and today for a perm. I was there all day, which I fully expected due to long thick Hair! They worked as a team to get it done as quickly and professionally as possible. Just remember they are students and they are still learning. A little patience goes a long way.

Paul Mitchell the School is a very nice and clean place. Its a great place to go and get your hair cut or treated by their wonderful students and teaching staff. If youre not ready to have a student who is learning to cut, style, color, or treat then this is not for you. But I assure you their students are well taught and supervised throughout the process. Not to mention cheap!

Ive been getting facials here for about 9 months and its wonderful. Facials can get somewhat pricey, but the cosmetology school here gives you the spa feel for a fraction of the price. With the dry climate in Colorado, the extra pampering has made a major difference.The learning leader is a true asset and I always look forward to seeing her. I hope her calm demeanor is passed on to her students!

Oh my goodness. Violet Robinson did such a killer job with my hair!!! Thank you for such a wonderful salon experience. Let me know if anyone wants one of her VIP cards, I highly recommend her for cuts, fades, colors, washes, and Ive even seen her perms and work on womens hair! She really makes you feel special and relaxed. I especially enjoyed the tea tree wash house treatment - very refreshing and relaxing.

I absolutely love how this place runs itself. It is professional and friendly. The students there are absolutely amazing, I can freely state whether or not I feel as if the job they did on me looks good or not. And that is very important, because if I dont like something I am less likely to come back. But I go back for every hair cut and color that I want. They also try to work with my budget when I go in to get my hair colored. That is very nice to have available to me.

Review №32

Ive been going to this school for 2 years. Almost every time I go I love it. I love the way I always leave with my hair perfectly styled and I love the products they use. What I love the most is how my stylist and the learning leader try to really listen to me and always explain exactly what they are going to do.I would recommend trying this school out. You should plan longer than you would usually plan for a regular salon, and you need to be very verbal about what you want! Also, when you find a student that you really like, work hard to schedule with them every time until they graduate!

Review №33

Horrible experience going to school here. I was told from previous students not to attend but I went against their advice. Definitely do research on other schools before settling on this one. They care more for money than helping their students. The staff was VERY UNPROFESSIONAL for them advocating high end service. My friends final clock out (graduation) was ruined because she was continuously blown off getting the green light from staff to clock out and then got yelled at in front of everyone. Bullying isnt taken seriously. Sanitation was taught but not practiced. On the day of my final clock out I was told FIVE minutes prior to clocking out that I technically could not clock out due to complications recieving my financial aid. Whilst my family and friends were there. I dont know how they couldnt figure that out at least a few hours before hand. I felt forgotten about often. I would reach their milestones and not recieve my certificates until weeks later after continuously bugging staff for them instead of at pow wows with my other peers. I would witness learning leaders talking bad about other students IN FRONT OF ME. There would be 30+ students on the floor and 1- MAYBE 3 or 4 learning leaders to help them, leaving guests waiting long periods of time unnecessarily. I learned more from educating myself than from the educators. And they dont seem to take care of their staff unless theyre related. 0/10 would not recommend.

I come in about every 8 weeks. Of course I dont have the same salon person every time but I appreciate their hard work and effort to get everything just right. They are always smiling and their attitude makes my day. I am about 95% happy with the results. Thats not bad for a school girl. I will continue to make my appointments with Paul Mitchell. Keep up the good work!

(Using my dads account)...I went in last night and got an Asymmetrical bob, Ricky did an AMAZING job! My hair is incredibly thin and was almost unmanageable, but Ricky worked a miracle and now my hot rats nest looks like a beautiful bob, Im so pleased. The staff were amazing and super sweet, I enjoyed the entire experience. Im very picky over who cuts my hair due to it being so thin, so I can definitely say, I will b going nowhere else but here from now on. Thank you lovely ladies for all that you did, you have a new loyal customer!M.M.

This place is the answer for a haircut at the perfect intersection of quality and price! I have long, fine, thick hair with its own issues and my stylist, Stefanie, really catered to my unique hair with all her services. I could tell I was her top priority and my satisfaction was paramount to her grade with her supervisor. She spent over an hour making sure my cut was stellar. This sort of service generally runs 50-100 dollars. The cut cost twelve! Thats cheaper than great clips!! They offer many other steeply discounted services as well. I have finally found a permanent place to receive hair services. I would recommend Paul Mitchell school to anyone who wants a fantastic haircut experience at an unbeatable price.

Today I had my hair shampooed, cut, and textured by Abby M. who was exceptional. Abby did a beautiful job cutting my hair, listened to all my hair needs – which were numerous - and delivered a lovely do.I am from out of town and when I googled Paul Mitchell Salon, Paul Mitchell - The School - came up. I have not been to a school to get my hair cut for a couple of decades but I do have confidence in Paul Mitchell stylists so I took a chance. Abby did not let me down – she is stylist with a bright future! She understands customer service, is meticulous in her work and has the capacity to really listen to her customer as well as hold an engaging conversation. She was also diligent in having her instructor check her work for the few times she needed affirmation and guidance on a technique needed for my hair – which really speaks to her desire to provide the best cut.I hope to return to Colorado City and Paul Mitchell School on future visits. Abby definitely provided confidence in the Paul Mitchell Styling School experience! Thanks Abby!

Oops! I reviewed the wrong location before...I have very fine thin hair that is difficult to work with I am glad they paired me with Roxanne! She was amazing! My hair turned out great. I just had a cut but she knew how to cut it to get the most out of my hair.The school is modern, clean, and well laid out. The prices are Great! I have paid more and received terrible cuts.Give Paul Mitchell School a chance. The students need the practice. There are supervisors who must sign off on all services to make sure you are satisfied.

I love Paul Mitchell salon school. This place is great. They take their time to get your hair right and really listen to what you want to achieve. I like my hair really rather funky and I just got one of the most fun haircuts ever. We are calling it a mutant undercut. Now we are about to make it as purple as possible and see if we can get some blue and green highlights up in this awesomeness. I recommend Mason. Until she graduates and leaves me!

I have been going to Paul Mitchel for about 4 years. It does take longer than going to a regular salon, but I almost always enjoy my time there.

I would recommend going to Paul Mitchell the school if you want to save money and have the time to spare:)

My son has been going to the Paul Mitchell School for his haircuts for about a year now, and I just went today. The results have always ranged from good to great. This is a school, with quality assurance processes in place. Services can take longer, but are performed well and for substantially less than you would pay in an established salon.The staff, instructors, and students are consistently friendly and professional. The newer students can, understandably, show a bit of trepidation at first. But as they get more experienced and settled into the program they are focused and settle into their new professions.Finally, the Paul Mitchell School does a number of great things in support of the community (charity fundraisers, haircuts for the homeless, etc.). This is admirable and a nice example of a good corporate citizen.

My hair is Red , I asked for Brown, they sent me out without being happy. I let Cloe know up front about not being happy with color or cut. Rachel didnt ask how I wanted my hair shaped in back, and didnt even touch my bangs. My back couldnt Handel laying back in the wash bowl. So rinsing my hair standing was fine, but Rachel wanted nothing more to do with me. Saying Ill comb you out, and were done , unless you want me to blow dry, I declined the blow dry but I wanted my hair cut , too , oh thats right. My color is not brown. I would like the color I paid for 60.00 and didnt get it. I asked for someone of authority to call me and no response. Close said for the charge of color they can fix within first week. It was immediate complaint, but I shouldnt be charged.

Thank you for your great reviews! We really appreciate everyone who comes in and benefits our future professionals education. They are learning and we are thrilled with the opportunity to take care of your hair needs as part of their quality education. I noticed one guest survey unsatisfied with her children not being able to come onto the clinic floor why she received a service. In response to any visitor not being allowed onto our clinic floor please review the following explanation:The reason that children or adults not receiving a service on the Clinic Floor is twofold, the first part being a safety and liability issue. All our guests who receive services on our Clinic Floor must sign a release of claims waiver before they are allowed to come out on the floor. In addition to that, the Future Professional and the Learning Leader assigned to the service ensures that all safety and sanitation procedures are followed. Since your child was not receiving a service, they did not have a Learning Leader and Future Professional assigned to them, therefore there was no one to ensure that the safety and sanitation procedure of the Clinic Floor were being followed and if an accident were to occur, we would liable. Secondly, our Clinic Floor is our biggest classroom and just like any other university classroom, the only people allowed out there are those who are directly involved in the learning experience, the guests, the Learning Leaders and the Future Professionals. There is a sign on the counter at the front desk where you signed in that clearly states that only guests who are currently receiving a service are allowed to be on our Clinic Floor.Thank you and have a great day!

I have been a faithful customer for 8 years and have had both awful and amazing color experiences but recently it has been horrible service from the front staff. It’s been so awful that I cringed when I had to even give one star for a rating because I wouldn’t give any, if that were an option.I usually get color and have done root retouches lately due to the hours changing. Saturday’s are now closed, and their hours have changed from 10 to 8.I was always able to still get a 5:00 or 5:15 appointment for root retouches with a Phase 2 student. I get off at 5 usually and I’ve gotten off earliest at 430 in order to make the 15min commute to get to my appointment on time. I’ve always been out by 8, even with my color. I had tried explaining this to the front staff and since I work Monday through Friday 730-5, I am unable to get to any appointments because they will not work with my schedule, even though they have previously. I had a 515 root retouch less than a month ago and they refused to give that to me again with the explanation that their hours had changed, even though they closed at 8 when I had the 515 appointment.They were rude and stated the only time they could get me in was 415 for a root retouch because student had to be out by 8. I have never been with a student who takes more than 3 hours to do a root retouch. Most of the students I have been with are great and efficient they have trouble finding “learning leaders” on the floor, who have to consult with me for thirty minutes to put on the exact same color I had at my previous appointment. Half the time, my color isn’t even updated in the system either, I’ve always had it written down to try to make it more convenient for the student.I will no longer be a customer, it’s sad after 8 years I will be taking my business elsewhere due to how rude they are. I understand hours change but to not be able to work or care about their clients is ridiculous.It has definitely diminished in service over the years.

Paul Mitchell has the best quality hair products as well as refined style techniques. Getting services at the school is the best value. The students listen to your needs and have guidance from learning leaders that help ensure the right cut techniques are used. It may take longer than other haircuts, but it is always worth the wait! Its a great price and unique, stylish atmosphere where the Paul Mitchell salon quality is definitely present. The future professionals provide excellent results and the price is just right. I definitely recommend Paul Mitchell the school to women and men (the Barber Shop is also excellent!). A local gem.

I thought $30 was a lot to pay for them to put my hair up but I ended up being very pleased with the job. The students were very friendly and spent an hour putting my hair up until I was pleased. The students helped each other out and shared ideas on how they should do my hair. The girl I had told me many times that if I didnt like it she would redo it. She stuck to her word and played with it until I was happy. I would definitely recommend them and I will be going back just because of customer service alone.

Chelsea did a phenomenal job on my hair. The highlights are gorgeous, and the cut is just perfect! I have been spending a ton of money at a higher end salon here in town prior to my visit at PM school.Honestly, I was a little nervous at first, but Chelsea took the time to listen to what I wanted and then colored and cut with care. I am sure no one will ever know I am not going to the high-end salon anymore. .. Yes, Chelsea is THAT good!

I graduated from this amazing school! It was the best experience of my life! Attending Paul Mitchell The School-Colorado Springs taught me not only to be a great cosmetologist but also taught me how to be a better person. I grew so much during school and learned a lot about who I am and who I want to be. It is unlike any other school. It is truly the Harvard of Hair. The education and the culture makes it the best choice for school. I highly recommend Paul Mitchell The School-Colorado Springs if you want to become an amazing professional in the beauty industry!

I was really impressed with the stylist and services here. They will make sure you leave happy and beautiful. My two kids 11 and 15 wanted new hair styles for middle and high school. I didnt get the ladys name who did my youngest daughters cut and style but it was very nice and just what she wanted. The lady was very sweet and interested in making her happy. She didnt speak much English but she did amazing job and was very attentive. Haley and Cristina did balayage highlights for my oldest. She was very indecisive and was disappointed with not being able to go extremely blonde in one color without breaking the bank. After the girls were finished I think she forgot all about her original plans! They did such an impressive job and both make great stylist! I will definitely be back to see them. I highly recommend asking for them.

Arrived 5 minutes early and was checked in and seated w stylist/student within 3 minutes. Student was very pleasant, small talk took place, answered a few questions I had about the treatment...would return for same treatment with same student. Educated me about product without being pushy.

I love my hair cut! And the price was extremely fair. I knocked a star off because I had to walk to a near by bank because you can only tip with cash or check and there is no ATM.EDIT- After trying to make an appointment for months & never having my phone calls answered/returned I finally made an appointment 2 weeks in advance. Thirty mins before my appointment as Im walking out the door they call and cancel on me. No apology or anything. So disappointed.

Had my hair styled here for a wedding and I absolutely loved my up-do. I showed my stylist three pictures of different up-dos and then had her throw out ideas. She did a mix of two of them and my hair definitely looked amazing. I will be going back this week for a cut too. The stylists name is Kylie in case youre wondering :)

Im currently a student at Paul Mitchell The School Colorado Springs and I absolutely love everything about Paul Mitchell. The experience that you get both as a student and a guest is amazing. Its always a very positive place where you can bet youll leave with a smile on your face. We also have a great staff who are very attentive to any needs. You can almost always find awesome promotions going on.

Ive been coming here for years. I wont go anywhere else! Ive had better work done here than professional salons. With only on bad experience and prompt fixing of said experience, Id recommend this place to anyone! My mom comes from out of state to visit and gets her hair done here.

I had a great hairstylist shout-out Jullia you slayed my hair but I wont go back to Paul Mitchell because what should have been 30$ turned into 70$. ***They should include that every bowl of hair dye after the first is an extra ten dollars in the Groupon. But they dont even let you know until theyre already mixing the second. I naturally have thick hair I know my hair takes more than one box of dye. I wouldve never went to Paul Mitchell with 70$. Thats for sure.

I have had my hair cut at Paul Mitchell for years & have had terrific experiences!! My latest experience with Tiffany was the best yet. Paul Mitchell is a fun, inexpensive and exciting way to bless a student & take care of yourself!! Thank you Paul Mitchell for providing such a great experience for students & our community!

Lonny my nail tech was fantastic and so was her supervisor christina,they listened and seemed to care about what i wanted done. Apparently i was the first customer outside of the school to get my nails done in their new program. Didnt mind being the ginny pig so to speak for a new upcoming nail tech. LolThe only reason i gave 4 stars and it wasnt bc of nail technician,i would have given them a 5 ,but it was solely on some of the other students. Some of the students (woman) where wearing less then pleasing attire. 1 in particular had she bent over she would have shown more then just her dairy air and others wearing clothes not suitable for a professional school such as this. Im not saying dont come comfortable, but have your female students dress in a more appropriate manner when in school.

I love this place everyone is friendly. The important part to remember when you patronize them is that you need to have an open mind and flexible attitude. If you are willing to do a drastic change they are up for the challenge! I love thier positive attitude. Advanced honors program students and others seem to be on the same level of education. The only real difference is honors students have more floor time, thereby giving more experience. I have had everything done from hair treatments, to color, to a perm. They have even cut my adorably unruly sons hair from the time he was 2 years old. No one has ever lead me astray and they are willing to fix mistakes. Just remember not to wait too long if they do make a mistake or they cant fix it (policies and rules). I have also had great experience with buying products. I bought a product package and the bottles broke and I lost the aspirator for a pump hairspray. They replaced it all. Thank You PM for being so good to me!

Ive been coming here for my hair cuts for about three years and have NEVER had a bad experience! The students as well as the instructors are kind and professional. The three checks that each hair cut has to go through makes me totally confident that I will end up with something wonderful every time. You do need to allow yourself a little extra time when you come here but it is SO worth the extra time it takes. I recommend this place to all my friends- trust me you wont be disappointed!!

Ive worked at this school for a year and I love it! The learning leaders are extremely knowledgeable and all my other team members are also enthusiastic and fun. The future professionals are very talented and I go to them religiously to get my hair done. The prices are unbeatable and you get pampered every time.

I scheduled a Phase II cut, which was scheduled as a 1 hour cut with a senior student that I selected online. Instead, I paid for the Phase II cut, which took 2 hours and the student obviously didnt know what he was doing. The instructors had varying opinions on how to do the cut, which confused the student. One instructor informed the student to start with the layers rather than the length. At one point, my hair was about a half inch shorter on one side of my face. When I let him know, he asked his instructor what he should do. She told him to never let the patron know theres something wrong because the patron would never realize!!! He had to bashfully tell her that I was the one that pointed it out. He didnt know how to work with my hair texture- that was clear. He never measured to make sure that it was symmetrical on all sides, and the end result was horrible. Its like he didnt understand how hair changes once it dries. Needless to say, it was a cheap haircut that I would never EVER return for again. Ill save my money for the experts next time.

It is a pleasure to watch these talented individuals develop their skills and hone their talents. Molly is especially fantastic, eager to learn and not afraid to ask for more knowledge. Paul Mitchell school is a great place for quality services, and the unique opportunity to learn along with the students.

At first I was hesitant to get my hair done at a school because I have had multiple horrific experiences at other schools in the past. Paul Mitchell The School does it right! The students are awesome and you can really tell that they enjoy what they do. The school has a fun and upbeat environment. I have had my hair cut and colored there quite a few times now and I have had a wonderful experience each time. Before coming here, I dreaded getting my hair done, but now I honestly look forward it. I would highly recommend this school to anyone.

Great experience with Mrs. April T. 😔 she will be done in a month but happy with the service and customer service. Prices are definitely reasonable and the products worked well in this naturally curly girls hair... didnt strip the color either.
