I took the Ombré Brow Course and I couldnt be happier with it. The class sizes are small so we each got some one-on-one with Ms. Tierra. We had a lot of fun and learned everything we needed to know to get our business started and keep our clients happy. Im excited to add this to my list of services!

Best school ever! The instructors are infinitely patient even with all my questions. The support afterwards is great also. This is not a fly by night group.

This was one of the best decisions I could have ever made. The class size is very small the one on one with myself and the instructor is exactly what I was hoping for. I learned so much and when I doubted myself, Tierra (Ms Womack) would lift me up and show me I was able. I highly recommend this to anyone who is wanting a path in permanent makeup. Thank you AAC!

So being as afraid and nervous as iam usually makes most instructors reluctant to work with me but everyone here is so knowledgeable. My instructor, Mrs. Tierra is AMAZING and so considerate taking extra miles upon miles to help you master any cosmetic skill she offers. I recommend even the most green makeup artist to try this school first!

I attended the Elite Brow course and honestly loved every second of it. I searched and read about many schools because I wanted to find the best and I wanted to provide the best for my clients and I’m so happy I found AAC because you will get your moneys worth, trust me. I searched for so many schools because I was scared of leaving nervous or not knowing enough but now I’m confident to start on clients and know so much more.

Honestly feels like I wasted so much money for nothing. I originally signed up for an ombré brow class, which was listed as for beginners, my main goal was to learn brow mapping, but when I talked to Kelly she informed me it was an advanced class and that they wouldnt really be going into much brow mapping and it would be online, as someone that works in the tattoo industry, I dont see how you can teach someone to tattoo someones face through online... but Id already paid my 1,000 deposit and knew I couldnt get a refund so I asked if I could use my deposit towards other courses, which after a lot of trouble, they ended up agreeing to. I signed up for Lash Lift and Tint, Henna Brow, and Eyebrow Lamination. Each course is listed under in-person and each course is 5 hours long. They took all 3 of these courses and made it so I would do all 3 of these in one day, with like an hour dedicated for each. When I got there, my instructor asked if Id done the online work, I hadnt because it was listed under IN-PERSON but after the day when I went back to look at it, it was just the manual that they gave me but on a screen. There wasnt any more information, not to mention it asks you questions, where the answers are wrong according to the manual. The products used where cheap, my lash lift kit, had expired glue, so the instructor let me use hers, which was a different brand than what they gave me, when I asked her what she used, she lied and told me the brand that Id originally gotten, which I knew was a lie because she was staring at the box trying to read something and it was all in Korean. Her kit was still something you can get on Amazon. Remember how I said Lash Lift and Tint class? We didnt even touch the tint because according to the instructor the model didnt need tint... After taking a tint class with a reputable brand, I was told everyone can benefit from tint. So the fact that I paid to learn tint and wasnt even shown how to do it is quite upsetting. I chose the Henna Brow course because it literally says on the website that theyre going to teach brow mapping with it. When it came time to map my models brows for henna, my instructor had to grab a micro blading manual, turn to the mapping page, and then just drew on whatever she could. During the brow lamination part, I was talking to another student who had taken multiple courses at this school and she was telling me how even after the course she was having trouble with the henna. When the instructor heard us talking she immediately rushed the other student away.I originally wanted to learn how to do permanent makeup from this school because the website looked professional and I thought it was legit but after my experience, I wont be taking anymore courses here and I would suggest that if youre serious about your career, you shouldnt either. When I asked if I had to be an esthetician to perform these procedures I was told I didnt have to be but when I took my next course with the reputable brand they require you to be a licensed esthetician or a student currently in esthetician school. My experience with this school was disappointing, a waste of money, and very unprofessional. The certifications I received mean nothing to me and Im honestly glad I didnt jump to the permanent make up course because it would have been a waste of $5,750. This school is like a lot of other trainings, where its all about financial gain, and not really about the student succeeding.

What a refreshing group of people. As a medical professional, obtaining training in aesthetics I find it comforting to know that people and professionals that are outside of the medical industry function At high standards of medical, professional, and overall standards of care. The training and support is exceptional to speak the minimum. Well worth every penny.

SUCH AN AMAZING LEARNING EXPERIENCE!! The school is so professional yet fun! Everyone is always happy to be there. I took the full week long PMU course and I loved it. Grace is an amazing instructor and Kilby is always so helpful and will make sure you’re 10000% satisfied and happy every step of the way. The class sizes are small which is so important because it allows you to have a ton of one on one time with the instructor.

AAC is amazing! This is the best cosmetic school in Atlanta. If you are someone looking to attend this school, you definitely should! Everyone here is so helpful and hands-on. The class settings are small 5 students which are amazing which also means more quality time with the instructor and a lot of open questions. I decided to attend AAC and the moment I walked in and had the first-class experience I Was happy and proud of my decision. Meeting my instructor Ms. Felicia and how hands-on she was, Patient, attentive, detailed and just overall beautiful inside and out, She was Phenomenal she answered all and every questions or concern a student had . Kilby supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!! He helped me every step of the way answer all my calls and stay on the phone with me for hours explaining and educating me on what AAC offers. His personality and compassion with helping made me feel 100% confident to sign up. Grace was proficient in her work and teaching. She made sure we was comfortable and gave us inside techniques that she uses herself, she was so helpful and informative.I love them all. Thank you for the great experience!

I was contemplating like three schools but I went with my gut feeling with AAC.i chose the elite program and I loved it! They are really professional and you get your money’s worth even after you complete your course. You get discounts on their supplies as an alumni and get discounts on future courses you wish to take. I’m so happy I chose them. Felesha and kilby are so sweet and helpful!

Review №57

I was honestly a little hesitant not about the school because this was one of the few schools that offered a 3 day course at an actual facility and was hands on, but because it was only 3 days. However Ms. Feleshia and Kilby were so helpful every step of the way from the classroom to actually working on our live models! The course I took was microblading and microshading. I was so confident when my model came in and when we graduated. Now that Ive completed the course they are still extremely helpful and prompt when I send an email. They also sell great products at a discounted rate to their students and you can go back within a year for a free refresher course. It is really worth the money. I am building up my clientele before opening my store front (which Ms. Feleshia has been helpful with as far as steps and pointers).

Review №58

Thank you so much for this wonderful long awaited experience of being a microblading model for one of your students. It is rare to actually see a business owner (Feleshia Sams) with old fashioned values of being hands-on with personal attention towards each student and model. She along with her co-master trainer Kilby, answered ever question I had as with patiences and care, which I truly appreciated. I cant wait to see the full results within the next 4 weeks. I am also very happy to know that Academy of Advanced Cosmetics will also set up a free touch up within 4-6 weeks after initial microblading. They stand by their students abilities, and are commitment to doing the best job possible to make theyre customers/models happy with the results.Thank you,LidiaP.s. I lost my brows due to medications & 6 major surgeries, this morning I woke up looking at a new unfamiliar happy face.

So let me start by saying Kilby the Cearyvie Director was Amazing!! He was very knowledgeable and very patient. He answer every single question ( I had quite a few) with professionalism. He gave me a tour and went over EVERYTHING in detail.Felicia is a phenomenal instructor. She has 14 years industry experience and was extremely professional. I almost paid the same amount of money to someone on Instagram but their customer service was horrible.I’m soooo happy I did my research and come across AAC. I feel so confident about my decision and I got a whole lot more for my money. I can’t wait for the 1st Annual Conference that I will be attending and receiving additional training. I would recommend AAC to everyone who wants to advance their skills in this very competitive market.I will be obtaining an Artistry Certification which puts me at the top of the game as a Misroblading professional. I am super excited, and I’m super impressed with AAC!Thank you so much!!Amina Posey

Review №67

I attended AAC because of a coworkers referral. I had been through hell and high water to be able to attend. Its been a year since I was certified in my first round of classes at AAC and my life has completely changed. I got excellent education and amazing after-course support. The staff is quick to respond and articulate an educated response that is easy to understand, and in turn, easy to relay the information to clients. I have run across countless people who have been ripped off from trainers and training facilities and its horrible. But this has opened the door for me to refer several people to AAC because I believe in them and their mission to provide quality education and amazing support.

I searched for quite a while trying to find someone that offered Microblading & Ombre training. Though I found a few none stood out to me as much as AAC - Once I called and spoke with Kilby, I knew this was the place to go! You can always call and get someone during business hours and they are extremely helpful in answering any questions you have about the school and classes they offer. And as a student the communication, availability, promptness and training is unmatched! Feleshia Sams is a great instructor who will make you feel comfortable with your training. She is thorough, well versed, professional & fun!

Review №69

I am an actual customer, not a student. What an awesome experience! Feleshia & Kilby are the bomb. The best customer service ever. Class A all the way. My eyebrows look gorgeous! Over the years, I lost my beautful thick eyebrows due to stress and medications. I was devastated when they thinned out. I used to fill them in everyday with an eyebrow pencil that I carried with me religiously because I kept wiping off my eyebrows when sweating. Not anymore!! Feleshia gave me my gorgeous eyebrows back and restored pride in my appearance. My eyebrows looked great from the moment I got up from the table to this very minute. Its been 4 wks since my procedure.They look so natural. I followed the aftercare instructions to the letter and Ive had zero complications. The procedure itself was not agonizing to me. The facility is extremely clean. Feleshia is seriously meticulous. I highly recommend AAC. I havent done anything for myself since having my baby 7 years ago. I feel good! I get numerous compliments everyday on my eyebrows. I like what I see when Im looking at me when Im walking past the mirror. Thank you AAC!! The name Academy of Advanced Cosmetics is a true moniker. Feleshia your Academy is indeed an operation with advanced high standards. The quality of your work astoundingly advanced. I will be trying lash extensions next.
