  My granddaughter and I both had our nails done by Courtney Porter. She was professional and friendly. Very patient and helped my 9 year old granddaughter pick out colors and design. I previously had a facial and loved it. I will certainly return to Fountain of Youth and recommend you give it a try!!

  As an herbalist, I started esthetician training not even knowing what an extraction was. As an older student and a teacher to boot, all of the teachers gave me the space to learn my way while teaching me their waysthe correct waysfacials, microderm, peels, madsage and makeup should be done. Any educational experience is what the student makes it. If you show up and WANT to learnyou will learn a lot. I hope to keep in touch with all of my teachers and to take advantage of the great prices and be a client to help future students. I loved my experience at FOYA. I have made great friends. :-)

  FOYA did not meet my personal standards and expectations as far as structure, training, sanitation, or product availability. Be sure you ask a lot of questions while you tour and review the contract with a fine tooth comb. I was naive and became fully taken advantage of because of it. I truly tried to exercise patience and grace with the owners, but there was no value for my time, tuition money, or clientele. Even to this day, I have tried to reconcile, but sadly, I am out thousands of dollars and hours with nothing to show for it. Yes, nothing to show for it, because the contract gives the owners the right to the students tuition money. On the bright side, the flex schedule did allow for me to complete my hours as a busy wife and mama of three. I would have never been able to even enroll into a program without the freedom to make my schedule around my first priority, my family. For that, I am thankful, and truly hope that other schools consider offering this type of scheduling so that I can finish and receive my license. Then again, I would have to pay out of pocket for enrollment into a new program, because my education loan availability was eaten up by the FOYA contract rights to my loan with them. Despicable. Beware, be wise, and read all reviews on Google, Yelp, and Groupon before deciding to go to school here or get serviced. Best to you all.
  
  I will not let this stop me- all glory to God! I will persevere in Jesus name!

  I am a recent graduate from the Fountain of Youth Academy. I absolutely loved the program and would highly recommend it for anyone searching for a career change. The teachers work as a team and help you achieve the education needed to prepare yourself to work in your field of interest. The flex schedule was wonderful; having a young child at home it was vital that I found a school that allowed me to create my own schedule. I can proudly say I am a Licensed Esthetician, all thanks to the Fountain of Youth Academy!

  I just graduated cosmetology school at the Fountain Of Youth academy! My experience was exceptionally great. The flexed scheduled made it possible for me to get my eight hours everyday between working a part time job, doctors apts, everyday life etc. Cheri the owner is an awesome individual who is looking to enroll absolutely anybody sharing the same passion she has. The teachers are very educated professionals who are advanced in many different topics looking to teach and instruct their experiences with you.

  I had the pleasure of attending Fountain Of Youth, and enjoyed every minute of it. The school itself is very sweet, has such a nice comfortable; homey atmosphere to it. The day I went to tour I knew right away this was the right choice. The teachers were great! All so nice, and welcoming. Also very patient! And very knowledgeable. The instructor Cheri is amazing. She does whatever it takes to work with you. She made the enrolling process and starting out great, explained everything and made it a lot less overwhelming. The whole experience was made a lot less overwhelming! Everyone made it so easy to adapt and jump right in. They're all extremely understanding of schedules, and have no problem working with you. So, in short, I loved the school. And would highly recommend it to anyone looking to start a career in Cosmo, or even just esthetics!
