Capri Beauty College Salon

Its all about who you pick. if you pick someone good than you are prob ok. If not, oh well. Then if you pick someone you like you have to get past the migraine you are going to have from all the noise and drama. Good price but I just decided not to skimp on my hair anymore. To find a good stylist maybe scope it out see who’s hair you like and ask them who cut it? I kinda go off of how well put together someone is. if your hair is solid I know you know your stuff. I have usually been right. one star because they are students and you nevr know. If you call and ask for who is good they will not tell you who the best student is. so that was annoying… good for a cheap haircut if you are adventurous and extremely low maintenance.

My review is as a client receiving services from students. I’ve been to Capri for two haircuts and a pedicure, and I’m very happy with the results. I highly recommend this place for hair cuts if you’re pinching pennies. It’s $ 10 to get a cut from a level 3 or 4 student (the highest levels) — so this is a great alternative if all you can afford is Great Clips. The haircut might take a little longer — they are students, and also the teachers have to check their work — but the cuts are very well done!
The last time I was there, I was extremely impressed when I was getting my adorable side-​swept bangs trimmed, and the student stopped and said «you know what, I just can’t get this to look how I want.» So she went to get a teacher, explained what I wanted, and the teacher finished off my bangs — and they are fantastic! So, I was happy that the student knew when to stop, and pleased that the teacher did such a wonderful job «demonstrating» on me. And my cut was still only $ 4 since I was only getting a bangs trim.
As for nails, I’ve only had a pedicure there, and it was $ 20 (compared to $ 30 at my usual place). It was good but there wasn’t quite as much detail as my usual place, so I’ll probably stick to Capri for haircuts and the other place for pedicures. Not that I got a bad pedicure or anything like that.

Okay, let me say this first and foremost: the girl who cut my hair (her name was Christina) did a great job. She was awesome! But the experience overall was… umm…less than satisfactory. Maybe it’s just me, but it felt like walking into an overcrowded shelter with hoards of barking dogs. It was as loud as a high school lunchroom, and people were everywhere. Maybe I’m a snob, but I’m not used to sitting so close to another client and hearing conversations on both side of me clear as a bell. The instructor who checked the work seemed a bit rushed (maybe because it was so busy?) and pretty much grunted, nodded, and walked away. Would I go back there? No, probably not. Great prices, and like I said… Chris was excellent, but it was a little… overwhelming. And disenchanting. And the epitome of something that was NOT relaxing in the least.
