Your school is called Latin, does that mean you only service Latinos?
No. We love to serve our community of all ethnicity and race. We appreciate the extensive clientele we have and their faith, trust and loyalty to give our students adequate practice for the field.
Do we get compensated for the Haircuts we as students do?
No. It is a privilege to be able to service the extensive clientele we have for practice. Many other schools have to utilize more mannequins, and learn mainly by watching the Instructor do all the haircuts. If the client wishes to tip you, you may keep that.
Why do you have to wear uniforms?
Our goal is to prepare you to be able to work for any shop. You may choose a shop that doesn’t have a dress code, but in the case you do, you’ll be better prepared.
