I am currently wrapping up my Medical Esthetician course at Dallas Skin Institute. I am so grateful for my time at this school and the education that I have received. From Patsy the Director, to all the teachers there, you know that they genuinely care not only about the education that you get, but you as a person. My main teacher was Ashley and she was always there to answer questions and listen if you happen to have any concerns. She poured her heart and knowledge into the classes she taught and her goal is clearly to make sure we are all comfortable giving a variety of facials and also have the knowledge needed to provide future clients with the best of services! Corona Virus disrupted the classes with the mandatory shut down but DSI was quick to come up with a solution so that we could continue learning via Zoom and a few other other tools until we were allowed face to face again and then we got back into hands on. In regards to the hands on learning, I was taught so much some of the other schools I looked at didn't offer. From microdermabrasion to Micro-current, different peel types, different masking types, and massage techniques I feel like I learned so much... that was also my favorite part. Mo, with her years of experience added a wealth of knowledge on technique and is a magician with her hands. Sugaring, micro-current, extractions, massage...she knows it ALL. I also looooved Lili but she switched to teaching the full-time class. I really enjoyed her teaching style as well. I was bummed she had to leave our class as a teacher. We were spoiled getting both her and Ashley for our theory classes. Her, Ashley and Mo make such an amazing team. You can tell they really love the students and want the best for each of us individually and as a class. Patsy as director has put together such a truly special space with the best team. It has a light and loving energy while maintaining a no-nonsense, let's get down to business vibe. A great combination for getting an education in the esthetics field. I will always, always, ALWAYS be grateful I chose DSI as my school. I honestly love it so much I don't want to leave....
Read moreThis pass weekend I was granted the opportunity to attend one of the Dallas Skin Institutes open house sessions. I had such a wonderful experience. Immediately taken by the environment, I fell in love with the aesthetic and interior design. Pastry's personality reflects that of one who's very approachable and open. The learning and work space that Pastry's created for her students reflects her passion and dedication towards meeting the needs of her students. In the meeting she shared with us a personal story of her upbringing and how strengthening her relationship with God lead her to be in the position she's in now. Reflecting on the journey and obstacles that I've had to overcome, I can also agree with Pastry that God is the only one that can take a situation that was meant for your harm and turn it around for your good. For he is the only one that can rewrite your story. Pastry meets you where you are in life and lives by example, truly exemplifying the outcome of what hard work and dedication can reward. She embodies a beautiful spirit and professionalism that makes one desire the best end results. After hearing her testimony I felt more encouraged to continue on the path of...
Read morePatsy, Brittany, Gloria, Ginger!!!!!!❤❤❤❤. I am truly grateful, blessed and humbled. These ladies are skilled beyond belief. Patsy the leader of DSI. Notice I said LEADER not owner. However make no mistake she is the owner, but she is so much more. Her heart her drive her skill sets are far and wide. I was needing electrolysis to get rid of those pesky whiskers that I have detested for decades. Brittany the very affable and knowledgeable teacher. Help direct the already accomplished professionals. (Gloria & Ginger) I had electrolysis in the past. Pain WAS a consistent part of electrolysis.That's evident by me purchasing prescription lidocaine because of the pain. I thought that was just the way it was. Not any more!! Between Brittany's reassurance and the skills of both Gloria and Ginger I was actually smiling. I never give 5 stars, perfection is hard to attain. They expertly removed more whiskers more so than anyone from an other establishment. If it seems like I'm piling on. I'm not!! DSI teachers teach skills that are hard to master. If anyone is interested in learning from the best. These ladies will help you acquire skills that will advance...
