I am a fellow graduate from the hairstyling & cosmetology program at art and technique and I can honestly say throughout my time here, There is no other place around that can compare to A&T.

Before attending the school, I had no prior experience with the industry or had even picked up a hot tool before. By my time of leaving and graduating the school, I had gained an abundance of new skills, techniques and knowledge that has not only left me feeling beyond confident in what I do, but also giving me the knowledge to back it up.

One of my teachers always said knowledge is power and was she ever right.

From being surrounded by the best classmates I have ever went to school with, that encouraged and motivated me along to journey, to being mentored by the best teachers I have ever been taught by in my life. The extra time & dedication that each single one of them put into not only their daily work, but into each student to help them succeed and reach their full potential is unmatched and everyone at a&t truly cares about not only your success in your career, but your wellbeing as a individual which goes along way.

Extra big shoutout to Ms. Devon, she has honestly been the best teacher I’ve ever had by far. It didn’t matter if it took her 10 times or 50 times to teach a task to you, she would do it over and over again till you fully understood with the biggest smile on her face. She was not only such a remarkable teacher to me but an amazing woman to me in my life and time at a&t and she is truly 1 of 1.

A&T is now a second home to me and anyone who is truly considering taking a leap of faith into this school, do it and don’t look back, you will have zero regrets and there is no better place that will set you up for success better than here!

I spent almost a year at A&T and had an amazing experience! A big thank you to the instructors and head office staff; Ms. Devon, Antonella and everyone else who made a difference. Thanks to their hard work, support, and the tools they provided, I secured a job at a high-end salon in downtown Toronto just before graduation. I’m so grateful to everyone at A&T for helping me achieve my dreams and for making my time at the academy so enjoyable. Thank you for everything!

I was a little nervous about getting my haircut here as I had a few unpleasant experiences prior, but at other establishments. However, the girl who cut my hair did a good job, although it was a little short in the front, as curly hair 'bounces' up when dried, but once it started growing out, it looked better..
Unfortunately, I don't remember the girl's name, but she was attentive, friendly, and skilled. She knew what she was doing, especially in cutting curly hair, which is different than cutting regular straight hair.
One thing that I didn't like was the loud music in the studio, especially once it got busy. I found that it was overwhelming and distracting. However, when requested, the manager lowered the volume, which helped. I think when visiting a place for a haircut or nail salon, etc., I feel something more relaxing and calming would be a better choice. This is my opinion and suggestion as I understand everyone is different. Regardless, I will return to the salon and just request that the music be turned down, which is another option. 😊

As a graduated student I would like to share my experience with Art & Tech. I have learned a lot during my training from hair cutting, to coloring, perming, customer service and more. Our instructors were amazing and very professional. I felt like a family oriented environment during my training. I had a choice to go to other hair schools but I chose AT & T cuz I heard so many good things about it from others. As a mother of 2 little kids it was hard for me to join AT & T cuz of my timing but Antonella made it possible for me. She helped me to make my dream come true. She encouraged and support me so much during my training. Today I can proudly say that I am a graduated student from Art & Technique😊

Where do I start…
I spent a year and a half learning and becoming confident with myself as a stylist here with the A&T family. I quickly was taught how important it is to have paying client in your chair that trusts you. I also got experience answering phones and waving clients goodbye after checking them out behind the desk! I’ll never forget my time at A&T and will always treasure it. Lots of love to Antonella, Ms. Devon and all the instructors for keeping it real and never sugar coating the industry for me! Look, Act, Be!
