Grabber School of Hair Design

Called for appointment for deep conditioning treatment and they got me right in.
Let me say that the service I received from Rory was a 5. She is very skilled, professional, and fun to be with. But the rest of the experience was not great.
Stopped in the bathroom first thing and there was no soap. There were 3 upside down shampoo bottles so I used that. There was also a bottle of sanitizer but are these people washing their hands after they poop and pee? If the dispenser is broken, soap dispensers are cheap.
One other funny thing, my sister went to beauty school and all the students always had their hair done. Almost all the girls here had sloppy buns or ponytails. Rory had a professional appearance and cute hair.
«Miss Paula», The teacher, was an absolute total BITCH! I have extremely thick long curly hair and when Rory my stylist, brought out the product, I told her that she was going to need a lot more. Miss Paula was there for the consultation and told Rory that it would be fine that it combs through. I ended up needing about four times the product and about 45 minutes into my treatment, Miss Paula told Lori that they were going to have to charge me more because they were using more product. She was behind me as I was at the shampoo bowl so I spoke up and told her that should have been told that at the beginning and that I had pointed it out as a potential problem. She stood there and argued with me and then walked away midconversation. Very unprofessional and rude! She then she kept coming back and taunting me and Ii told her to her face that I was not one of her students, and she was a bitch, and she wasn’t going to talk to me that way, and she wasn’t going to charge me more money that should’ve been handled from the beginning.
In the end, I left there was smooth silky hair. There was an extra charge for my blowdry which Rory was not aware of, that was just $ 4.50 extra no biggie.
Would I go back? No. There are lots of beauty school choices in the area. But would I recommend you go see Rory? Yes. I think she will be a great stylist when she graduates in a few months. Heck, She is already a great stylist.

I’ve reviewed this venue before, but I have to say that I was very dissatisfied with my last visit. Cannot say that I would return again for the same service.
During my last visit, I went in for a relaxer. The student who did my hair seemed to know what she was doing until the instructor came by and asked her if she had the shampoo and everything all ready near the bowl. Her response was «sure» but it was obvious that she was not prepared. While the teacher finished my hair, she went to get everything prepped at the bowl. In that instance, I was so glad that the teacher had stopped by.
After my hair was rinsed, washed and dried, she went on to style my hair. I was very disappointed with the quality of flat ironing that was done. You couldn’t even tell that it was flat ironed! As she continued to style my hair, it was obvious to us both that she was struggling. But instead of asking her instructor for help, she asked another student to come over and finish for her.
The entire time the other student was lecturing her about how to flat iron hair. I have to say, that one of the reasons that I loved this salon so much was because of the diversity. But today there appeared to be a lack there of in the training.
If I ever go back, I can’t say that it will be for the hair service.

I had lashes put on and what a waste of $ 10. I provided high quality lashes and glue just to have one put on upside down. After she corrected her mistake and applied both they lasted a whole 6hrs before falling off. I could have done better on my own– so save your money and have your friend or mom put them on for you.

I try hard to support our local business. As a teaching school, Grabber does not take walk in’s and getting an appointment has always proven difficult. When I want to pamper myself I will go down the road bit to another Beauty School.

This school isn’t the fanciest out there, but it’s pretty nice. Most of the instructers are friendly and nice, but there are a few that you just ignore are even there.
Their tuition price is reasonable and you get your money’s worth.
I do suggest if you want one on one time with an instructor you take evening classes because the day class can have over 50 students with only a hand full of instructers. Mr. Quick one of the night instructers is awesome and always willing to help.
