What Our Professionals in Training Say About Us

Came in for a treatment not too long ago with Briana and she was amazing! She was extremely knowledgeable and made the whole experience very comforting for me. I found the students were very confident with the work they were provided with by Briana which you don’t see very often 🙂 overall great experience! Definitely would recommend Briana to all my friends.

I just had the most fantastic hair experience with student Shegofa and instructor Jason. They were both so attentive and did an outstanding job of my shampoo and style. Jason is clearly a remarkable teacher who loves what he does and inspires his students! I’ll certainly return. I can’t say enough good things about the treatment I received. Thanks again.

I am a student at NIWE academy currently in the professional aesthetician program and am enjoying it so far. My mentors Jessa and Liz are very experienced and helpful. They make coming to class a lot of fun. I also am enjoying all the hands on work and practice we do because it makes it much easier to learn concepts. Overall, I think it is a great school and a good program to join.
