| - First and foremost, to begin, this is a cosmetology school. I was driving by one day and noticed a huge banner that read, "Hair Cuts, $2.75." Who could possibly resist a hair cut that's less than 3 bucks? Well, I guess someone fearful of letting a student near your nugget with scissors. I completely understand. But my past several experiences have been just fine. I'll be honest, too, they do a much better job than some of the other in 'n out hair salons in the area. See, if you think about it, these are students who WANT to do a good job. They're not trying to move quickly and get on to the next patron, thinking cash and not quality. And the students are carefully supervised by their instructors, so fear not.
I also went in for a facial and pedicure the other day. I've had a couple facials before, thanks to spa day gift certificates I've received in the past. I have never been more comfortable than I was at the G Institute. My esthetician for the day was very concerned and caring, and took her time with each step, explaining things in full before we began. And, oh, I forgot to mention -- it only cost me $15. I followed the facial with a pedicure ($8), and I've only one complaint about that -- the foot tub we were using had a leak in it, so we had to refill it a couple times. But again, the student took great time and care with my tootsies, and they look great.
They also offer waxing, basic manicures, coloring, perming, etc. -- just about anything you would look for in a salon. And the prices are perfect for my pocket.
