Id first like to thank you for taking your time to read this reply to the individuals comment regarding our instituion. I have worked at Love Beauty School for 4+ years and the owner is an incredible woman. She is a christian and not only does she manage the business, instruct classes but she is also a mentor to any individual in our instituiton. Our instructors are incredibly talented and are waiting to train you! Any fees that are charged are listed in the enrollment contract which is something every individual who wishes to attend our school must read and sign. We are required by our accrediting body as well as the department of education to make this information available, and we have always done so. The kits are well worth it and students actually receive everything they need inside the kits. They get everything from combs and tweezers to flat irons and mannequinns. We now offer a 9.7 inch android tablet in some of our kits as well as the book on software. Any time a student withdraws from the institution prior to graduation we are required to charge them the fees that they agreed to and signed a contract for. You can not trick anyone into signing a contract. Students read the information and enroll. They are made well aware of our absentee fees, attending school is crucial to completing.
We offer leaves of absence as well as schedule changes to assist our students in any way however when you miss multiple days without contacting the school we are required to release you also if you take a leave and your out for 6 months and dont return we are required to release you. Students are able to make up any hours they miss before they graduate which allows them to not have to pay for any absenteeism fees. However if you dont come to school we have no choice but to release you. The department of education simply will not pay your tuition to sit at home. Any days that the school is closed this is then automatically calculated in the administration software in order for the individual to not be overcharged and this is then verified. all of our Cosmetology and Nail Technology Teachers are licensed however the state of TN will allow a jr Instructor of any school to teach for a max of 2 years under another licensed instructor. This young lady was actually contacted because she didnt contact us, we also have provided her with copies of every signed document/contract we have from her verifying that all her fees, checks, charges etc were valid. As well as offered her the opportunity to return to school and finish the career she has started. We keep copies of everything on our students for their files and ours as well as provide them with copies of everything.
The school has not and will not ever misuse funding. Its simply not worth it. We are christian based, and have wonderful educators and teachers as well as staff that work extremely hard for what God has provided them. Hard work pays off. If your willing to work, or go to school and complete what you have started it will pay off. It can sometimes be a struggle financially when your just trying to get on your feet but you will make it! Failure is not falling down its not being willing to get back up and finish. Love Beauty School has financial aid available which consist of pell grants, as well as student loans. With the large increasement of students who are attending our institution we have expanded, however this was not done on the fees that students are required to pay for their absentee.

Have a blessed day, Ms. Tonya!
