This review was way over due but I wanted to share my experience as a student who attended. I highly recommend this school. 10/10. Just take a chance and join. I graduated the 600 Clock Hour Nail Care Course. I enjoyed my time at this school and I found the staff to be supportive, kind and helpful. They really care about their students and will do anything to ensure you complete your hours and are state board ready.
I started attending the Nail Care course in the beginning of 2020 right before COVID took over the world. When I began, I received tremendous help from Dario and Ashley regarding financial aid, payments and making sure I had my completed kit from the school. The owner Ms Karine was so kind and involved in everything that happened. Ms Turquoise was my educator who always had amazing tips for us and was very understanding of our personal issues or preferences when it came to nails. Ms Erika was always there to help as well. If I ever had an issue they did their best to help me and make sure I was able to complete my hours no matter what. While in class, I met amazing woman who shared the same passion in nails as me. Our educator made it interesting to learn about all things nails and the proper way of things. But because of COVID we had to split the hours both online and the remaining hours had to be physical, to which we had to wait until we had the green light from the state to be able to return to class physically. It was all very new and confusing but I believe things were handled in the best way possible considering the situation. During that time I took a leave of absence which resulted in me taking more time to finish the course than we had intended. I finished in 2021. Regardless, they made sure I had my completed hours and received my certificate of completion. Ms Turquoise made sure I was ready for both the written and practical exam of the state. You are tested “out” in their method before you are truly finished. We acted out the exam as if we were taking it; which I found to be the most helpful. With their help, I turned in my application to take my state board test. For personal reasons, I missed that appointment and have yet to reschedule. But I would definitely redo the course or join a different course just because I thought...

Read moreAs a recent graduate of victory, career college cosmetology program, I can wholeheartedly say that my experience here was amazing and transforming! From the moment of enrollment and walking into VCC, I knew I was in the right place to pursue my passion of cosmetology. The faculty is warm and welcoming and Miss Rubi and Dario made the tour and admission easy to understand. They instantly gained my trust in the admissions process. I had the privilege of learning from miss Erika whose expertise in hair color and haircutting was both enlightening and inspiring. She was engaging and insightful and helped me build the technical skills that I needed to succeed in my field. The time and attention she devoted to my success was nothing short of remarkable and I hope to remain very good friends with her as I continue to develop in my career. Miss Bella was amazing because she gave me opportunities to learn facials and skin care, and always welcomed me to her class. Mr. Walter the barber instructor was also very welcoming and helpful when it came to tips on men’s haircutting. The curriculum at VCC is incredibly comprehensive. I even received an award from Miss k at my graduation! Which was a very proud milestone in this entire experience. Over all the entire staff was amazing, and the schools atmosphere really surpassed expectations! I’m incredibly grateful to have choosen this school that has kickstarted my rewarding career in cosmetology. If you ever thought about returning to your profession this is the...
