Laird Institute of Spa Therapy

My daughter was a student here, there were only 2 in her class and the teacher failed to keep them current with their syllabus. The other student withdrew, leaving just her. She was left to be a guinea pig for the day students to practice on and continued to fall further behind on the syllabus (as were the day students). She opted to withdraw as well and she was charged a $75 fee! It was their fault she was withdrawing! They also have terrible communication and don't return phone calls or emails. I would recommend another shorter and less expensive program. The facility also needs an update!!!

I went to this school when it was "School of Nail Design" about 14 years ago. It was the BEST decision that I ever made! I was looking for a nails only course with flexible hours as a Mom & this was it. It took 9 months to complete at two nights a week & Saturdays & I had the best time. (And we had to clean too, but that's what you do in a salon every night because it's sanitary) As a bonus, I made some amazing friends too, some that I have kept in touch with over the years. I felt that I learned way more about nails than I would've had I taken a cosmo course. I had worked in three salons and am proud to say that I have been the co-owner of a salon in Derry for 6 years. I LOVE my job & my clients (friends) of 10+ years! I can't say enough about it, it really doesn't feel like work to me! If you are thinking of being a nail tech, this school is the way to go!

I graduated about 3 weeks ago from the laird institute of spa therapy and I must say it is truly a wonderful school in every aspect from the establishment to the staff and owners! I learned many life long skills to make me successful. They offer hands on demonstrations of the services you will need to learn for your career, as well as a theory class and chapter reviews for your whole book! If you want to feel like you are 100% sure of your self knowing how everything in either spa nails or esthetics is properly preformed I highly recommend you enroll in the laird institute...go laird ; feel prepared -Amber rand

I was a student at laird institute of spa therapy and i feel very sad about all . The classrooms were a joke. The students were teaching themselves, and unfortunately the students looked like they had no idea what they were doing. I can't even believe she ask for $8000.00 . What!! This school isn't worth $14 on a no interest loan. Besides, you have to buy your own supplies(after you pay all this money). To be honest, I really feel bad for the students training there . I would run the other way. This school is ran down and appears very dysfunctional. If you are considering going to this school as a student, DON'T. I am currently a student and feel totally SCAMMED !!! Angie is extremely kind, but she does not have the experience to be an instructor. BrigidI don't even going to let you know about, a esthetics instructor to do nails? First they promise things that do not comply: after all you have to clean the whole school as a maid because even that person don't want to pay a cleanup. Tables and chairs for the pedicures are of poor quality .
