Art22 Academy - Fort Wayne, Indiana

I attended Art 22 Academy a few years ago for their cosmetology program and absolutely loved it so I went back and also completed their esthetics program. The staff and teachers are all so amazing and attentive, I left full of knowledge and prepared to start working. I highly recommend this school to anyone in the Fort Wayne area looking to start their beauty industry journey!

My daughter had her hair highlighted. It's an educational program and I understand that. The instructor consulted with the student and my daughter and then didn't come around again until she was done. It was yellow and brassy. We contacted the student who offered for her to come back to fix it. When we left the second time, she still had yellow streaks and her instructor told the student good job. We were charged both times. We had to go have her hair fixed- a color correction and have now paid a lot of money and her hair is so damaged. I've left 4 messages for the owner with no return call. We've attempted to call several times and the voicemail is full. Not a very professional way to run a business. I feel bad for the students who are provided with minimal instruction.

i attended school here a couple years ago & i have to say out of a lot of the beauty schools around i have visited or have received a service at, this is the best! they offer outside business advise to prepare for your future, surrounding salons, spas, & makeup artist will visit to either teach classes or give you more info on their business! the staff genuinely cares about the wellbeing of their students & are always there for a helping hand. not to mention the renovations they have done since i’ve been there 🙌😍 if you’re interested in attending cosmetology or aesthetics, i highly recommend Art22 Academy.

I had a wonderful experience at Art 22! The facial I received was relaxing and rejuvenating. The staff were professional, skilled, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout. The atmosphere was calming, and I left feeling refreshed. Highly recommend their services!

I’ve been to Art22 on several different occasions now and have never had a bad experience. The students are always friendly and work well with me to determine a game plan and beauty budget. The instructors are also very friendly and are always willing to hop in and help any time they are asked. The services and prices are great! I’m already looking forward to my next appointment 🖤 P.S. Rebecca and Hailey have done all of my services and I would 10/10 recommend either one of them!

If you are looking into attending a beauty college I do not recommend coming here. The reason why I say this is because I recently called this morning for basic cornrows (For people that don't know what that is that's braids braided to your scalp) no one including the instructor knew how to do it. So if you're not interested in getting your money's worth attending a full service beauty college this might be the place for you.

For people that don't know what cornrows are I included a picture to help out

(( a few days later/ Update ))
I just wanted to respond to what the owner just said regarding what I originally post which is above now.
When I called it was not to be a model for your school. I just wanted someone to braid my hair because I injured my hand and the person that was on the phone with me told me no one including the instructors knew how to do a Beehive Braid or Cornrows at all. But I'm glad that you are trying to improve your establishment just try to keep it honest.

Maddie/ Michelle did a fabulous job highlighting my hair, and set up a plan of how we would transition after my new growth started coming out, amazing job! Ty so much

I went to school here and I am so glad I did. The owners have the students and clients best interest in mind and truly care. The teachers are beyond brilliant and make it a fun learning environment. We get to use the best products and get to learn for the best in the business. They also bring people in that specialize in different areas of hair and skin for us to learn from so that we can find what we like best. With this all being said I also want to say that the school is also very professional. They are still students but I have LOVED every haircut/color/facial I have received there. Even after graduating when I've gotten services done, I feel like I am in a high end salon. I recommend this school to anyone wanting to get the best training in Fort Wayne.
