The Salon Professional Academy - Altoona - Beauty school in Altoona - 415 D Orchard Ave, USA

The student was polite, sweet, and engaged in conversation; however, this wasn’t the best experience. She didn’t touch my cuticles, only filed a couple nails, and didn’t do a good job with the gel polish. As you can see from the photos, she got the gel polish on my skin and didn’t take it off. I took it all off as soon as I got home. It was hard to look at! Definitely not worth the $25 I paid. I hope she gets more guidance and teaching before she graduates.

I had my hair cut and styled by Olivia and she was wonderful! Paid great detail to her work! My hair is a hard one to deal with being so frizzy since it is 95 degrees outside but she took the time to brush and separate my hair and still managed to keep it all the same length! Definitely recommend her to anyone coming in for their hair! My 6 year old daughter had her haircut at the same time by Megen and she was wonderful as well! My daughter is a major talker and Megan held a conversation with my daughter the entire time! She did an amazing job on my daughters hair! Both of these girls are amazing!!

The sweet young lady who took on the challenge of my very straight, short hair to perm was delightful! Being that this was her first ever wrapping a perm I think that she did a great job. She was quiet, but that was fine, I just accepted the fact that she needed to focus on her task. She was never too stubborn to ask for guidance and that in my opinion makes learning easier. I believe her name was Kayla? Miss Diane called her KK. I will seek her out again once I have more growth and my perm has grown out. If she hasn't graduated by then. I wish her only the best!! And FYI, I'm camera shy, but she did do exactly what I wanted.

Got an all over color done today, by Lacy. Trusted her to help me pick the color, and I just love it! I'll definitely be going back to her. She made my experience at TSPA comfortable and fun. Great job, Lacy!

Alexis did a really awesome job on my lashes. It was her first time and they turned out great! Only giving 4 stars instead of 5 as they did not let me know to expect the appointment to take so long (did not tell me I was getting a first timer) and disappointed they don’t do hybrid lashes for sure. Alexis did great though and I’d go see her again. (But please let them start doing hybrid too!) :)

Montanna was super friendly and pleasant to be styled and have a wax done by her. She was very knowledgeable about her products and what would work best for how I style my hair. I would highly recommend her! Thank you for making my experience wonderful Montanna!

Paige is AMAZING! I have recommended her to all of my coworkers and friends. I hope they call for an appointment. She has done my hair twice now this time I just told her to do her magic and she did! Can’t wait to see what we do at our next visit….

What an awesome experience I had at the Salon today. Had some layers cut into my hair today and washed and styled by Reagan Bair. She did an amazing job and I loved the way she styled it! Such a friendly environment I will definitely be back.
