Paul Mitchell The School Birmingham in Hoover, AL

I was in the chair for almost 5 hours for color and a cut. The student was just as nice as she could be, but really wasn't prepared to do anything on her own. One of the teachers stepped in at the end to get me out of there.  We selected a color to yield light brown hair, but it is now almost black...maybe 2 1/2 hours for her to apply was too long? Will be trying to strip the color now...

Dear Paul Mitchell,

I am Mark Elders and my brother is Tim Elders and every four weeks, we go to Paul Mitchell The School Birmingham 40061, 1694 Montgomery Highway, Suite 124, Hoover, AL 35216. The folks at Paul Mitchell Birmingham are so professional, so polite, so attentive to detail and they are dedicated to client satisfaction, and we've been getting our haircut there since 2018. I don't know that I can list every one there who has served us, so I will let you know of our most recent visit. Wednesday, 06/29/2022, Faith welcomed us and we signed in. Andrea S cut my brother's hair and she is so talented, professional, and nice. Alexa M cut my hair and she is also so talented, professional and nice too. And Debbie, one of the teachers, is also so talented, professional and nice too. Oh, and somehow, Alexa, Andrea, Faith, and Debbie all have such very attractive hand printing, like the sort of hand printing, perfect letters one might expect of an elementary school teacher, or an engineer. The folks at Paul Mitchell Birmingham deliver the kind of top quality service that just makes me and my brother feel good. I can really see the ladies there going really far in life with their careers, and with everything they do. When someone asks, where did you get your haircut, we tell'em where and who, the amazing folks at Paul Mitchell Birmingham! Thank you! God bless! Mark N Tim Elders, Birmingham, AL

I'm impressed with the services I received at Paul Mitchell. The students and instructors are professional. Every aspect of my service was monitored and ensured I was getting what I asked for. Nearly all the chairs had clients in them and those who didn't were busy practicing highlighting, roller sets and facials. It's impressive to see how well organized the class was. The services are extremely affordable and if you have time and not tied to a schedule save some money and give it a try. It's a friendly, clean and affordable establishment.

Do not ever get facial here they charge you 30$ for rubbing your face 5-10mins only, they call it mini facial, u do not get even properly washed your face. Not wiped my face even with washcloth.

Asked for haircut (trimmed my hair to remove splits on my hair, it took 5min to finish with trimming, seriously, i could do much better doing it myself.)
It just takes them forever to blow dry and brushing.
It was my last visit ever to any Paul Mitchel Schools ever, hope i will not meet graduates from this school in real salons, i do not think they will be good what are they doing after graduating from here.
I will start going to Aveda school, to give them a try.

But i liked their hair treatment. I had damaged hair after heavy bleaching and balayage, my hair was tangled all the time, impossible to brush it or do anything. After their triplex(?) treatment my hairs went back to normal. The price is not bad 30$.

Schools are always a hit or miss. Came here for a pedicure and manicure with my mom. The students were the sweetest people ever but the girl doing my pedicure unfortunately had no idea what she was doing bless her.

My person even said she'd never even had a pedi cure before and she doesn't even know how to paint her own nails. It took well over 2 hours for a pedicure and the nail polish was lumpy and messy. They also don't have driers so your nails are bound to mess up.

Now the young lady who did our nails did a great job! She has a bright future in beauty. Service wise these are some of the nicest and most patient students ever.

However, the service and prices are not worth the hours you lose and the messy job you get while trying to save a few bucks. I once got a blowout and keratin treatment here. It looked like I stuck my finger in a light socket. Such frizz and puffiness.

This school does have great hours and clean bathrooms. They open past 7 most nights.
