Agnes came to me having already been to beauty school, but not at all confident with her skills. After talking to her, we figured out her strengths and weaknesses, and focused the classes so that she walked out feeling confident in all the skills taught.

What she says: “Bleema's course was beyond my expectations! She's an incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and passionate hairstylist, and makeup artist. I loved how she customized both the hair and makeup courses specifically for me, so I learned and practiced exactly what I wished for, and even more. I didn't only gain confidence in my skills, but after the course I had the courage to start my own business. My clients are happy, and so am I. I highly recommend taking Bleema's course.”

Torah is now delivering high quality services for her own personal clients, specializing in doing creative updos for events. What she says: “Bleema is an amazing teacher who taught me everything I needed to know in order to succeed as a professional hairstylist. She is knowledgeable as well as highly skilled. The class is clearly structured, organized, exciting and well-paced.”

Sera was looking to change careers and decided to take my hairdressing course. She has since moved around the world and is glad she has a flexible career doing hair and wigs.

What she says: "Bleema’s course was amazing. She taught me many different hair cutting and styling techniques and how to work with wigs. I started my own hair and wig styling business after completing the course! I’ve now been working with wigs for years, all thanks to the skills I learned with Bleema!"
