John Jay Beauty Salon & College

I was a student at J.Jays worst experience ever! Jay would go in the classroom and called women ugly and that they had kitchen hair. Also, he was never there to teach a class. We would have to watch a video of him teaching from 8am- till close to 12pm. How were we going to ask questions. Hell, we were falling asleep!! Anyway enough of that. I wouldn’t recommend this school to anyone. Not even my worse enemy.....

I have been a client for over 12 years. Needless to say, I have always been pleased with the complete experience ... friendly, knowlegable staff, immaculate facilities. My stylist for all these years has been Angelle ... truly in a class by herself. You won't be disappointed.

As someone who was educated by Jay, back in the '80's, I knew that the school would teach the basic fundamentals that I needed for a trim. I only wanted the flat cut, as I would go home and take care of the round. (Hairdresser's would understand). Lauren did a great job, and allowed me to walk her through it. She just graduated, and I wish her great success!

BEWARE! I took my 9 year old daughter to the salon (not the beauty school) in Lakeview to get a trim on her straight, bobbed hair cut. We live in the neighborhood and I thought it would be nice to find a salon nearby. I will NEVER go to this salon again. They charged me $45 for her haircut. Online, the price for a cut is $20+ so I assumed she would be on the low end as a child and straight bobbed hair. Well, the haircut was $22 but they added $16 for a style (she was blow dried - so do you have to leave with wet hair?), $2 for the shampoo (so should you come with wet hair?) and then $5 for "Items Used" (it appears they add a surcharge for the hourly workers who work there). I was astounded. We will never go back and you should ask for the total price before you get any service done there.
