As a student I can honestly say that the esthetician program at Milan delivers fantastic hands on training and a curriculum that truly prepares you for the industry. Literally ALL the esti instructors are exceptionally knowledgeable, patient, and invested in every student's success. Beyond the classroom, the administration department—especially Ms Maria.. is wonderful, always supportive, and helpful with keeping things running smoothly. I feel that the only notable downfall is occasional supply shortages during skills where the supplies for students sometimes run low on products or tools and have to share resources closely. Despite this inventory hurdle, the quality of instruction and administrative support make it a great program for aspiring estheticians!!!Posted on Google![]()

I had such a wonderful spa day! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed, relaxed, and well taken care of. The atmosphere was peaceful and calming, and every detail made the experience feel special. I left feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and completely relaxed. Melissa was amazing and would recommend her to everyone! It was the perfect way to unwind, de-stress, and take some much-needed time for myself. I would definitely recommend this spa to anyone looking for a little self-care and pampering. I can’t wait to come back! 💆♀️✨Posted on Google![]()
