Reviews of The Salon Professional Academy Fargo (Spa)

Lori Wertz

Went with my daughter to get our nails done. My daughter wanted white tips but the technician forgot and gave her regular nails. When she was done the nails looked ok. We left and not 20minutes later one of her nails broke off and the polish on some of her nails smeared and looked awful. She ran to a regular salon and paid to have them removed. My technician was very new and I was the 3rd person that she had ever done nails for, I was considered her model. She did state that the nails would not be perfect, so I was expecting so so nails. I got the white tips but instead of tips half my nails were white. Granted I do have small nails and can make doing my nails difficult. The shape of the nails was to be round but they were so uneven that when I went home I had to refile them to get them even. Woke up this morning and lost one nail and a few hours later another popped off. Got so ticked off I took the rest off We paid $18 each when we were told over the phone that since we would be models it would be $10 each. As friendly as the technicians were we won’t be going back. I will stick with paying a higher price and get nails that will stay on longer than a day.

Never a bad hair day when going to Innovate Salon Academy. I always get a great cut & color!. Eric did a fabulous job last time I was there.

Went it for a highlight and the front looked okay after a second time of bleaching because I didn’t like it the first Time. Once I got to apply moisture in my hair and put it in a bun, just realized half of my back hair is black and I have to go buy dye to do it myself. The lady who did my hair doesn’t know how to flat iron. She flat iron half of way through my hair instead of going from roots to bottom. The hair just doesn’t blend at all. This student is to graduate next month and should be able to show confidence when doing a customer’s hair, her lack of confidence made me uneasy the whole time and not trust what she was doing. My day is completely ruined because I could have dyed my hair at home or gone to a professional. Some sections of my hair were red instead of blonde. Hair is a complete mess and i am so disgusted cuz now my hair is ruined till I dye it gain. If a customer comes in and you are not confident in doing a style requested be honest and let them know. My hair is patch blonde and patch black.

Lucie has being doing my hair for months now. I was so happy to be her last client before she graduates on Monday. Congratulations to a wonderful young lady who is a terrific hair dresser with an amazing future ahead of her!! I love the compliments I receive from friends after my visits to the TSPA!!!

I went in almost in tears because I had gotten my hair done at a different salon and it turned out tromendous. I went into the hair academy and Olivia saved my hair . She did an amazing job and I recommend everyone to go here . The facility is very clean and all the workers are so nice. Olivia listened to what exactly I wanted done with my hair and went above and beyond and made my hair beautiful again . I will definitely be returning !

Innovate Salon Academy is a great place to go for a haircut and blowout. The students who do my hair are always so patient and ensure my hair is exactly how I want it. They do a thorough and great job. I have been going here for the past two years and I would definitely recommend it!

Sally Hanna

Excellent value & quality of work! Ive never been disappointed by thier professionalism

Emilee Anderson

The polish goes off my nail onto my skin and there are visible air bubbles on my nails and on the clear coat you can see she didn’t go around my whole nail. She also didn’t talk to me the whole experience. Not impressed at all.

Maryan Hussein

They are awesome and I loved the service.

BreAnna Price

I did not like how my nails turned out at all and it was $42.

This is a school, students are LEARNING, so if you can't tolerate a possible mistake, I don't recommend going here. Otherwise, it is a GREAT place and an inexpensive salon! Everyone is so nice, they treat you professionally & kindly. My sister, kids & I have been going here for years. I've gotten a couple of bad cuts (they will try to correct anything you don't like!) & some cuts I have loved, but have never had a problem with the service. Again, it is a SCHOOL, so keep that in mind when you schedule.

I got a haircut & face therapy from Brian and he was as good as any professional barber! Awesome Service!!!

Shelbi Keller

Had a bad experience a couple times ): first time I went to get my prom hair done & it took literally 3 hours. The instructor ended up doing my hair. Second time I requested someone 2 weeks in advance, drove an hour, waited 20 minutes for my apt only for them to tell me “she’s not here today”. I get it’s a school but cmon! Very UNprofessional academy.

Jayden Luikart

I was just there with some friends and I asked for an all over color that was light brown. I have dark hair so when she used bleach I wasn't at all surprised. She gave me highlights. Don't get me wrong, it looks good. Just wish it was what I asked for

Lindsay

Went for the first time the other week for a massage, and absolutely loved it. The massage therapist student I had was fantastic, really focused on the areas of my back that hold so much tension. The massage therapy area is in a separate area from the main hustle and bustle of the salon so it’s a very peaceful and calming experience. Would definitely recommend!

Sara Rodgers

Wonderful service I received a fresh blow out and an installation of extensions. My hairstylist was friendly, down to earth, and made me feel comfortable. 5 stars!

The first time I went and got my hair dyed black it was great was really happy with it. So why not go a second time right? NO DON'T DO IT! I called a week ahead and got an appointment and explained at that time I want to color my hair 2 colors. Showed up 15 min early checked in at the desk and than sat for 45 mins finally a tad annoyed I go back to the desk the girl at the desk say "what know way" she says she will find out what's going on. She comes back to the desk and tells some other worker that's at the front desk the girl that I was scheduled with was just stand there doing nothing! So finally the girl comes over and I go back after an hour now of waiting. I sit in the chair show her the picture of what I want done. She says I'm so excited to do this so sorry I was told you were a no show. So I was going to help other girls with their clients. I am like what!!!! So she goes and get an instructor and I show her the picture as well of what I would like. I wanted purple and black! After sitting there for 4 and a half hours I got the blue black hair and NO purple shoes at all why because it was not done right at all the girl bleached the part I wanted purple than washed and dyed my hair than tried to do the black and purple all at once no separation st all. So she gets done with coloring it all at the same time. At that time I said this is all going to be black she say this is what I was told to do it should work. After rinsing my hair twice cause she didn't get the dye out the first time. I have blue black hair! And on top of that I get charged 81 dollars!!!!! I even said to the lady cashing me out you have got to be kidding me after all this and charge me for toning to? I understand the people here are in school but seriously! Very very disappointed!

Kelsey did an amazing job on all over color. She was friendly and listened to what I wanted. I came in asking for the same thing 2 months later and another lady did it. She was super sloppy...getting my back wet, face wet while in sink and hairdye on my shirt. She wasn't friendly, also late in getting to me when I already had a scheduled appt. I told this new girl what I could spend...and how I wanted to keep it at $40 like the last time. Also wanted the same color. It ended up being $70. I shared how wrong it was for me to pay for extra that I didn't want or need. Some people who are here are scammy so you have to be careful who you book with.

Kevin Allen

TSPA is a nice clean & comfortable place to get a haircut. Prices are very reasonable. Would highly recommend Ashley Neva - she does a fantastic job with men's haircuts & styles!!

Pajaniappan Cojandavelou

They did great job. I am happy with their service.

Kendal Christenson

Went in for an eyelash extension fill....the girl glued my eyelid shut after I specifically said to be careful. The technician in training AND the instructor then spent the next half hour poking at my glued eyelids with tweezers. However, not to worry, the receptionist offered me a lofty 10 perfect off of my expensive service to assure my return. Never again.

Erleen McCanna

I've gotten my hair colored by Sam OHara twice now, and I am so happy with the great job she does, that I pre-booked with her again! She takes the time to chat with me, to fully understand what I'm looking for, and offers great solutions. I love my color, and the way she styles my hair She is a great conversationalist too, which makes the time fly by!

GiggleBug805

Have gone here several times to get my hair colored. They have been great everytime! Pricing is fair and quality is great!

Lynn S

I have been going for 2+ years regularly for my hair color/touch up. They are excellent. Considering they are students, raring to go, they are thorough, polite and affordable. I am very pleased w/ the salon.

Susan Elsamna

The students and the staff at the school are very professional. I highly recommend these services!!
