The instructors always take the time to make sure you understand the material and when students test onto the floor they always give them the confidence and guidance they need to succeed on their model and future clients.
The instructors are knowledgeable, kind and very helpful. I’ve learned more here than at my previous cosmetology school. Absolutely recommend!
My favorite part about coming into Wade Gordon every day is seeing my friends. I don’t ever know who’s going to sit in my chair or what it’s going to go like or what I’m going to learn so that’s exciting to me.
