Evergreen Beauty College

Came in because I saw the promotion of half off for skin services! Had an amazing experience I got my full arms waxed sadly forgot who did it for me however it was very clean very professional only thing you should be aware of is that it may take longer then it would at an actual salon (took an hour for my arms thats including check in etc…) but totally worth it! I paid 7.50 $ however would totally pay full price defienetly will be back!

I’m writing this to hopefully help give any future students here an insight on what being a student here is like. I wish I had known before wasting my time and money, but I couldn’t find a negative review anywhere. It’s clear to me now that anybody who says they enjoyed being a student here has extremely low standards. No way would I ever recommend any family or friends going there for any kind of service or to enroll as a student. I’ve recently talked to many professionals who let me know they wouldn’t hire any graduates from this school.
The «campus» (if you can call it that), was below standard. It was separated by a laundromat, and in my two weeks there, cops had been called there multiple times. From what I heard from other students, Evergreen students had their cars broken into or stolen on a regular basis. The school administrators were uninterested in my suggestion of putting up cameras to protect their students from future thefts. I guess they would rather spend our tuition on radio advertisements.
On my first day of class, my other class mates and I had «orientation» for a few hours. Playing name games and other games you would find kindergartners playing. They also showed a few iphone videos of the owner, Frank Trieu. Who came off as very insincere, and repeated the same exact written speech for us about three times. When we went into our classroom, we met our other classmates who had been students at the school already for about two months or so. They were ahead of us (already waxing and giving facials), and all of us newbies were squished into their classroom to learn with them. Very confusing. For our very first activity, our instructor handed everyone in the classroom a piece of paper, and told us to «make it as tall as possible without falling over». Whatever that means. When somebody asked her if this activity had a deeper meaning, she laughed and said «I just wanted to see you guys struggle.» That was my first red flag, not to mention how the school was already wasting my time. Our instructor started with her lecture, which was mostly videos that she found off of youtube. On our FIRST DAY, our instructor showed us a CHILDRENS video on YOUTUBE to explain the different layers on skin, and actually said «this explains better than I can.»
After researching my instructors past, I found out she has never worked as an esthetician in the beauty industry. I don’t even have my license yet, and at age 22, I’ve worked in the beauty industry longer than my instructor. I had also found out she quit her job at a retail store right before being hired as an instructor at Evergreen. That right there shows just how much Evergreen cares about the education of its students.
Every Wednesday, the school hosts a mandatory class on how to build your business. It’s a complete waste of time (more name games), and it’s all absolute common sense. If anybody actually learned anything new in that class, there was no hope for them in the beauty industry in the first place.
The first two or so hours of class were lecture, and the rest of the day (six or seven hours) were pretty much «free time». The instructors called it «spa time» but unfortunately, there was NO WHERE near enough room in the spa for the students to practice, especially the newbies. Most of us hung out in the classroom doing homework or playing on our phones. There were also barely enough resources to complete a facial or waxing. Most students had to go next door to the Dollar Store to purchase essentials to perform a service with their own money since the school didn’t feel like keeping the products stocked correctly. While being a student there, almost none of the steamers worked (in fairness, there was only two or three as I recall), and we had to skip facial steps because the school was out of most of the products. Our instructor demonstrated a facial twice to us, but as soon as she was done demonstrating, she was nowhere to be found. She didn’t watch us or critique us. I had a student a few months ahead of me give me a facial. It was awful, and I know she’s a student and we were all learning, she didn’t follow any of the steps correctly at all. It was obvious that she wasn’t being taught correctly. She had been a student there long enough to know how to perform a simple facial correctly! I had another student ahead of me wax my legs. She ripped the wax strip UP instead of DOWN, and after all that unessecary pain, she managed to miss about 50% of my hair. She was clearly not being taught how to wax correctly either.
I’m currently enrolled at an Institute down the road, it’s AMAZING, and the teachers have worked in the industry for at least over a decade. I learned more in two days at my new school than I did at two weeks at Evergreen. Do your research, don’t settle for less when it comes to your future.

I love coming here! Everyone that I’ve worked with and met have been extremely professional and very enthusiastic! In addition to offering a wider variety of services this salon offers piece of mind because the teachers are always available to offer advice and support to you and the students, it’s one of the best reasons I can think of to go to a college. Today I just got an eyebrow wax but usually I get a cut and color too and I make sure to always make my appointments with Frances F. Frances is fun to be around and very down to earth but above all she is professional and confident. Frances is in the habit of making sure that her clients get exactly what they want and that it is perfect! Her attention to detail and her creativity make her the perfect cosmetologist. I would recommend her to anyone for any service you may need.

I went in for a haircut and was highly disappointed. My stylist was Asia and she was sweet and kind but the educator who cut most of my haircut was highly unprofessional when she chopped off a huge amount of my CURLY hair to the point that I wanted to stop the hair session early. She seemed like she was in a bad mood and was very rude and did not listen to what I wanted.
In addition, the educator only came by two times and never checked on the fact that Asia had cut ALOT more than a trim.
After being told by Asia that she likes to «do what she wanted» and we’ll that’s what I was given, an aweful haircut and tears for days on losing my long curly hair when I came in for a trim only on the dead ends. Now my hair is too short even for a ponytail. Hair murderers work here I do not recommend this place at all.

Ehhhh, it was cheap I guess. The student took forever to very slowly and awkwardly snip my hair (over an hour), and finally the instructor came by and quickly finished it. The cut is a bit choppy and actually crooked in the back, and they didn’t seem to take into consideration my thick, cowlicky hair… Of course I could have asked to have things fixed up while I was in the chair, but I had been there for so long at that point and just wanted to get out of there. I’ll probably go get my hair fixed somewhere else.
Also if you make an appointment, just call them. Not sure why but no one would get back to me when I used their online appointment form.

I’ve seen Chandra a few times now, and I love her work. She has serious skill with color. I’ve gone to high end salons and I know she’ll be at one of them as soon as she graduates. First she did an amazing full foil, then I had her do a brown ombré, then I completely changed it up and had her do a red to blond ombré, and none of them phased her. She’s confident and skilled and it shows. The experience at Evergreen is nice, the front desk checks you in like at a salon and then the student comes and gets you. The teacher has to approve the steps that the student does, but I thought it would take a lot longer, so its not all day that you’re there which is nice.

I have been here several times and each time I ask for Larrisa Lins she is an awesome hairstylist! She delivers what you ask and treats your hair as if it where hers, I plan on keep going just to see her!

This is my second time here and I brought my wife along. I asked for Bao, and she is a pro. She will consult and ask all the needed question for your cut and etc. Recommend what length and the ways to make it your own style. She takes her time, and patience on your hair. It’s about quality and she definitely looks after her customer’s needs. After the cut, we proceed to get my hair washed and with a soothing massage. Then she would continue to check the cut before blow drying and styling. I would recommend every one to put your hair in her hands. She is a pro and artistic, hurry in before she gets famous and expensive!

I have been here twice for my hair. I really enjoyed my experience with my stylist, Linh Chau. She is attentive and detail oriented. She listened to my requests and looked at my hair before proceeding. I have been to other places and they will do whatever the client requests without providing feedback. Linh also taugh me the best way to take care of my hair after a perm. Overall, awesome experience. I would come back and recommend friends and family to come see Linh.

I came in a couple days ago and saw Sarah. I came in wanting an ombré and she did a fabulous job. Iv already gotten compliments on the blending of my dark roots to my lighter ends. Thank you Sarah I give you 5 s on your work!

I had a scalp treatment at Evergreen beauty college because I have never done it at a beauty school before and to hear that this have opened up in my neck of the woods i wanted to try it out. And Karmen O’Reilly was the student that was doing my hair and she did an amazing job with the massaging on my scalp and she even used a timer to make sure she does 20 minutes. She was also very good at explaining the products that she was using. She was also very pleasant and she even told me about the other services that their school offers such as facials and body treatment. I am giving this a 3 star because I saw some students that were not doing anything and some were falling asleep… and that scares me on what the instructor is NOT doing. But ask for Karmen if you want your hair done.

I went here for the first time yesterday afternoon. I went for the affordable prices and was ever so pleasantly surprised by the amazing customer service. I love my hair cut and I love my highlights. Subtle… was exactly what I was looking for and exactly what I got! I couldn’t be more pleased with my hair dresser, Alyssa. I would recommend her for anybody who gets a little nervous for a hair cut. She caters to your needs and listens to your desires. She was nice and cheery and always made sure I was as comfortable as possible.
