This is the class to go to if you want to know what you are doing when you apply eye makeup. The teacher was fabulous. Very clear and instructive. We did our own makeup under her tutelage and she helped on tips on blending, placement and what to do if you made a mistake. Absolutely no pressure to buy products and great tips on drugstore finds.

Loved this class. We were able to try out different curling iron tools.

I singed up for this class by myself on a whim since I had no idea what contouring is and thought I needed to get hip with the times. There were only three of us in the class so there was amazing individual attention. We were able to ask a ton of questions. I learned a lot and will definitely take another class.

This was the fourth class I've taken at goldplaited and it's because I love the people there! They're so welcoming, don't make anyone feel dumb for not being a natural at applying makeup or doing hair. I love how many instructors they have for each class- you get a huge amount of personalized attention. They sell some of the products you use in class, which is great because then I know exactly how to use them, but there is absolutely no pressure to buy. And they send a nice handout afterwards so you don't have to take notes during class. Very highly recommend goldplaited!

This was a great class and I learned a lot! I still have quite a bit of practice to do to get better, but there was a demo and then a lot of helpful tips and 1:1 guidance with the teacher afterwards which was very helpful to someone like me who is terrible at doing my eye makeup!!

Kristen is a very patient instructor and doesn’t mind giving extra time when needed

Great class but about a year since I took it and I still use the technique I learned

I definitely learned some new techniques, and the teacher was very patient, encouraging and personable. Loved that it was BYOB as well.

Amazing!! Had best time and loved being able to bring in my supplies to know what works for me!

Amazing!! Had best time and loved being able to bring in my supplies to know what works for me!

This was my second class at goldplaited and like the first one, it was amazing. There was 1 instructor per every 2 students. I learned a lot I didn't know..I would highly recommend.

I really learned a lot during this class about applying eye shadow. You really can't learn the same way watching YouTube videos. I can't wait to apply what I learned the next time I am getting dolled up.

I had no knowledge about how to style my hair before this class. Now I can use a flat iron to create curls and give my hair a really modern look.

Very positive experience. I really enjoyed the facility and the teachers were very available to answer questions, also appreciated it was a small group. I also really liked that I could buy the products that they introduced us too.

Becky is amazing! She worked well with four of us and moved through each of the steps at a good pace. She had a handout that she emailed to us that covered everything. She was patient and honest with feedback. I absolutely loved the class! Highly recommend it!

Really amazing class! The teachers were all so friendly and informative. It was a great split of teaching and hands on practice. They really broke the process down for me which is a great way for me to learn. Have already curled my hair twice since the class and feeling much more confident.

This class was awesome. We were able to learn a variety of techniques and Nicole was super adaptable to our individual needs. I look forward to taking more classes at Goldplaited!

This was a great event and I learned a lot of practical tips that I’ll use moving forward.

The class was great and the teacher was so informative. I've been watching a lot of make up videos but it's really hard to learn from videos because they aren't tailored to your face shape. The teacher here was able to explain to us how to contour on our face. The class was intimate, just me and my friend, so we definitely got a lot of attention. If you're looking to learn make up I would highly recommend taking this class. I'll definitely be taking more classes in the future.

This was my first time taking any sort of makeup class. I have seen a lot of youtube instructional videos but the fundamental training I got specific to my face at goldplaited was very beneficial. I learned a lot about achieving the results I want using the products I already own. I did bring in my own products (it was interesting to learn how wrong I was using my own products lol) but goldplaited had their own makeup products you can use as well. I would recommend this class to all levels of makeup skills.

Had an excellent time. Teacher was very friendly, and taught us to use three different tools to curl hair. It was very hands on! Teacher really knew what she was doing and how to show us what to do. I’d recommend to a friend.

I just recently took this class cause I had a great experience at Goldplaited in prior classes. I only know the basic braids but learned how to fish tail and numerous other braids. The instructors were attentive and even gave time to come by to teach specific braids that we request. I definitely feel more confident in braiding and learned so many tips from them!

I went to Wear Makeup To Work since I wanted to learn the neutral look for work. The instructors were definitely attentive and really friendly! They both came around to give personalized eye shadow recommendations and showing the application of the makeup with the brushes. I definitely recommend this class for those that are beginners in makeup.

Great class! I learned a lot. I appreciated that the teachers walked around at the end working with us one on one.

This class was amazing! I really only throw on some mascara for the day and eye shadow when I go out at night, so this was a great class to learn more about how to achieve a better look for day and night. There's one teacher for two participants and they ask what you want to get out of the class then guide you there step by step. I asked tons of questions and my teacher was so patient and answered everything. All of the teachers there were super knowledgeable. I'd highly recommend this class to makeup novices like me or even those who are better with makeup but want to learn more about achieving a certain eye look.

I absolutely loved the curling hair class at Goldplaited! I learned a lot and had such a fun night out with my girlfriends : )

This was my second class at goldplaited, and the team there is super helpful and non-judgemental if you’re like me and literally don’t know anything about make up. They provide you with brushes and pallets to try, and I actually brought some of the make up I had with me to ask them how to use it or if it was the best product for me. I would definitely recommend to a friend!

I highly recommend this class. I've taken two classes and both were great. Lots of hands on/individual attention from instructors. Think your short hair or fine hair is a problem for braids? No problem. They will teach you how to make the braids work for your hair.

Such a great class! All of the instructors were extremely helpful and really took the time to explain each technique, they were so lovely! I definitely walked away with some new skills in my bag, there were so many things I didn't even realize were possible, and also some things I realized I had been doing wrong my whole life, so all in all an all round great experience

Goldplaited staff taught a great class! There was lots of individual attention, and I learned a very useful new skill!

It was a rainy day and there turned out to be only me and one other person in class. Natalia who was our teacher made the class highly personalized and adjusted her teaching to our skill and comfort levels. At the end, she took out time to answer any questions we had not just about what we had learned but about anything related to makeup. I've been able to use the techniques we learned in class by myself on an almost daily basis. Thank you Natalia!

Great class!! I've learned the methods and the proper tools I need to properly curl my hair! The instructors are great, and I love that they give discounts on the styling tools, which are very expensive if you purchase them retail. I highly recommend this class!!

Trust me when I say I was helpless at hair curling prior to this class. I bought all the curling products and tools out there, watched all the tutorial videos etc and nothing seemed to create the nice beachy curlsI was seeking (that didn't fall out) or really any kind of curls at that. This class started with a tutorial that went over relevant products, different types of hot tools and techniques. We then went off to our individual stations and several instructors walked around giving hands on advice. This was WELL worth the money- don't even hesitant to take this class.

My experience with this class was great! The instructors were very knowledgeable and helpful. I left feeling very confident in the skills I had learned. I would definitely go back to another class at Goldplaited!

This was my third dabble at goldplaited, and it did not disappoint. Got lucky that the class size was small (2 attendees) so we each had our own personal teacher. It was fantastic! They walked us through a day and night look using our own products so we could replicate at home. Looking forward to practicing my smokey eye at home!

Fantastic class! We were a small group, and that allowed the teacher to really spend personalized time with each of us. I learned so much about how to contour! The teacher was very knowledgeable and patient, and most of all fun!She had all the supplies we needed, and items were available for purchase after the class. I have much more confidence now in my contouring abilities, and I have this class to thank!

I learned the basics of braiding and defifeel more confident now. The class was fun, the instructors were great, and provided lots of personal attention, which was great! I'm glad I know about this place. I'm going to be doing a new head shot soon, and will use them for hair and make up. They are a finishing salon only. They do a great job!

This was my third time taking a class at goldplaited because I love it there so much. They have ample instructors who make learning easy, fun and positive. We learned several types of braids and updos and the pacing of the class was great.

Extremely helpful! I brought my own straightener and curling wand - and learned my wand is to large for my short hair. I used my straightener and learned how to use it to curl my hair to get consistent results. I'm really happy with the results.

Loved this class! The instructors were all so nice and the hands on part of the class was so helpful.

I really loved this class. I have to continue practicing but the instructor really paid attention and taught me what I need to do. Highly recommend.

LOVED this class! I’ve always struggled to blow dry my hair and for it not to turn out frizzy or flat. The instructors were super friendly and helpful, with really great tips. I’m actually looking forward to blow drying my hair this week! Can’t wait to take another class here!

Loved loved loved this class! I could not curl my hair to save my life, despite watching YouTube videos and trying. But now I know how to do beachy waves with a flat iron. I have been able to successfully do it a few times since and get compliments on my hair every time. Thanks for giving me hair confidence Goldplaited!

I got so much out of this class! The instructors were so knowledgeable! They taught various methods/tools and shared what products to use for different scenarios. I am left handed so I often get confused learning stuff like this from your tube but feel totally confident thanks to these guys!! Great to do with a friend so you can go out afterwards with your curled hair!

Great class! I learned a lot from the instructional portion at the beginning and the instructors were awesome about coming around and helping during the hands-on part. It was also nice to have access to all their different tools to figure out which one was the best fit for me.

I have never been able to figure out how to curl my hair. I watched YouTube videos, I had friends show me, but it never clicked. Within fives minutes of seeing the demonstration, I was able to curl with a curling iron. The flat iron took a little bit longer, but I left feeling confident that with some practice, I will have that figured out soon too!

I’ve been wanting to learn how to curl my own hair for a long time and no amount of YouTube instructional videos could help. Goldplaited actually taught me the right way to curl my hair and even with multiple different styling tools. Definitely bring all your hair styling tools and products with you if you can, so you can practice using your own stuff!

Nice space, very friendly staff, well organized, lots of personal attention. I highly recommend.

Great location. Friendly atmosphere. Teacher to student ratio was outstanding. We had 8 or 9 students and 4 teachers. Didn't flinch at working with darker skin tones. (My guest and I are African American.) The only improvement I can think of is to consider including a handout that describes the steps - color, brush type, and placement - so that we can really listen instead of half listening/half scrambling to write everything down. Will be looking for future opportunities to use/support Goldplaited.

The instructors were all really nice and encouraging! Gave some nice tips for easy eye make-up looks

I’ve never been able to achieve that perfect at-home blowout, so registering for this class was no-brained. The instructors were all very attentive, and like with their other classes, made it easy to ask more personalized hair questions. While I still struggle to attain that perfect blowout, I feel that I’m several steps closer!

I’m hopeless with a curling iron, so you know I just had try this class! The instructors were endlessly patient and answered all my questions and gave everyone tips based on their hair type. It was definitely more of a social class (I was the only one without a group), so that might be something to keep in mind when registering.

Would highly recommend this class for anyone looking to improve their curling iron techniques. The instructors were personable, knowledgable and very approachable. The small class size led for lots of personalized attention and technique corrections. Right off the bat I learned of several cardinal rules I was breaking that led to many of my curling misfortunes in the past.

Every lesson in this class was new to me! I learned a ton of great tips about products, tools, and techniques. You might think you know how to use a curling iron, but you don’t! Also, there was a great balance between demonstration and hands-on time, with help from the instructor as needed and a good amount of personal space so you don’t feel self-conscious while you’re experimenting.

Really fun class to learn the building blocks of hair braiding and how to do it yourself! Well taught class.

This was a great class! Only 4 of us, so we each got lots of personal attention. I went in with no ability to curl my hair, and ended the evening with some pretty good skills.

I had a fantastic time learning about various eye looks! The instructor was very detail oriented and worked with me in understanding my eye shape and what look will suit my face. Since i was the only person attending the class, i had full attention and gained nuisances of how to use strokes etc. great class!! i am going for their next one now!

I enjoyed the class. I left with some fundamentals to work on at home. This is a great place to start to become comfortable with a round brush and hair dryer in your hands. I would've appreciated a little more guidance on what each of us should do with our specific hair types, but enjoyed the exercise overall. I didn't leave with photo-ready hair, but did leave with some new knowledge.

My friend and I had such a great time at All About Eyes! There were multiple teachers present to really give individualized instruction. I did a great job under their expert tutelage if I do say so myself! I've had so much fun putting y makeup on in the morning for work ever since. Highly recommended!

Excellent class. The teacher was very knowledgeable, professional and taught step by step with demonstration and hands on experience.

Great learning experience and a lot of fun. I will do more classes with gold plated.

I went in this class wanting to learn about a more dramatic, smokey eye look. They did not disappoint! They had everything I needed and more. Loved this class; I highly recommend taking it.

Awesome experience!! My friend and I went for a girls night and the class totally exceeded our expectations! We were new to contouring and the instructor was very patient, knowledable, and friendly! Would highly recommend!

The class was fun and I learned a lot! It felt like it was possible to come in with any level of experience and leave having learned quite a few new techniques. All the staff were so warm, welcoming, and helpful. It was a fun night with friends and I would love to do another class at goldplaited.

Excellent class. The teacher was very knowledgeable, professional and taught step by step with demonstration and hands on experience.

I had a great time at GoldPlaited! The class was informative, fun and useful. I've already rocked some new styles based on the techniques we covered during the class. The teachers were very patient and worked to explain and demonstrate each braid in detail. They shared some simple tricks that are easy to execute and gave me good tips on how I can practice picking up hair (French/Dutch braiding).

Five of my friends and I took this class together - it was so fun and educational! We all came away with some good skills that we didn’t have before.

Excellent class. The teacher was very knowledgeable, professional and taught step by step with demonstration and hands on experience.

I took the class because I don’t know much about makeup application and wanted to learn in a hands-on setting rather than by YouTube. The class is capped at 10 but there were just three students, which was awesome because I had so much one on one attention with Yasmine. She has done my makeup for a wedding before with Goldplaited and it was amazing, and she’s an equally good teacher. Both teachers clarified all of my questions about what to use (brushes, colors, primers, etc) and when and how to use it and gave great constructive feedback. I’m really excited to use everything I’ve learned and hopefully take the contour class soon!

I liked this class but I felt the price was a little high considering what's included. I would have liked to have gone into greater detail with some of the products, looked at the packaging/bottles, felt it in my hands before applying, etc. I also thought we were going to discuss our hair type and texture. I appreciated the individual attention that I received as the class size was small but one of the students had more challenging hair than I (very curly) and I felt like she got the lion's share of the instructor's attention. It also would have been helpful if some of the tools we used were available for purchase as well (some were, some were not). Overall, a good class if you're clueless but it's all pretty surface-level.

Excellent class. The teacher was very knowledgeable, professional and taught step by step with demonstration and hands on experience.

Very informative. The other people who signed up for my class cancelled so it was just me and I got a one on one the entire time.

Another great make up class from Dabble! They gave a lot of hands on assistance and overview of eye make up techniques.

I liked the class and thought that I got some really good tips on blow drying my hair. It was a really personalized attention. I was hoping to learn some tips on how to do my hair at home, but I did find that appropriate blow drying would take too long - approx. 45 min to 1 hr. I do wish that the class was a little more customized to the texture of my hair and my daily needs.

I was surprised by the small class size. The teachers were nice and everyone got a lot of one-on-one attention.

The class was good. They covered the basics and the hands-on part was most important and helpful. Some of the tips taught really helped me understand the mistake I was doing

I loved this class & the teacher was amazing! They made contoring and highlighting seem so easy! She took time with each student demonstrating and applying the techniques. She answered all our questions and discussed other products to try.

Fun makeup products to try. Learned a lot! Very informative on contouring basics.

I really enjoyed the class and strengthened my braiding skills. Krysta was our instructor and was very helpful and thorough. She covered products to use, tips and tricks and went thru 4-5 different braid/hair styles. I liked the structure of the class . The instructor would demonstrate on a dummy head and then allow students to practice on themselves. Instructors walked around, gave feedback and provided assistance. French braid was not covered but Krysta did show me how to do a French braid during the second half of the class, which was open format and students were encouraged to practice what was taught in class or ask about a braid they wanted to learn :) Salon was close to Brown/Purple line so getting there after work was a breeze. Would recommend this class :)

Braids 101 was another fantastic dabble class at Goldplaited! Sydney and Krista were amazing teachers -- clear explanations, demonstrations, and individual attention. My hair isn't super long, so I appreciated that they focused on starting braids high, and then we were able to finish in a way that worked for our hair lengths and textures. We learned several different braids: underhand, Dutch, rope, and fishtail, as well as how to style braids into cute up styles. This class was so fun, and I would highly recommend to anyone thinking about taking it!

I was very happy with the class! All the teachers were knowledgeable and the fact that it was a small group gave us a lot of one on one time with the instructors. I learned a lot about the types of brushes I need to use and how to correctly put together a night time smoky eye!

Overall lots of great tips and made the process of blow drying hair manageable. I really liked my instructor.

This class was fantastic! I was fortunate to work one on one with an instructor (whose name I'm totally blanking on right now -- sorry!) who was great! He listened to the kind of look I was interested in getting, gave clear instructions and demonstrations, let me give it a try, and then gave specific suggestions and encouragement to improve my skills. The Goldplaited space is so cute, and everyone is welcoming and friendly. I definitely plan to go back for another Dabble class or to get done up for a special occasion. Thank you, Goldplaited!

The class was great! Since there was only two of us it gave more of a one on one class which was awesome. Both the ladies that work with us were really patient and explained everything really well. I'm going to find time to go back to another class.

Really great class, learned a lot and have already put new skills to work with great results!

I learned a ton! From the importance of airflow on the dryer to what part of the hair to put different products in - this was really helpful for a novice like me. My goals were to learn how to style my hair more without the use of a flatiron or curling iron and to coax my part from one side to the other over time. I definitely accomplished those goals. I enjoyed the friendly staff who helped me out as it was a little awkward at first to get the hang of things. Highly recommend!

I bought the curling class as a gift for a friend’s birthday. As she and I were on our way there, turns out-she knows how to curl her hair! She didn’t know how to make it stay and that was why she never attempts curling. The girls at goldplaited are awesome! They show you how to learn curling your hair on more than just one tool and several different ways as well. I highly recommend this class. Even if you already know what you’re doing, it’s a fun atmosphere and a great experience.

Enjoyable class very informative, helpful and patient staff! I learned a lot and would reccommend to anyone looking to learn how to efficiently blow dry their hair!

A great class that combined some "lecture" with lots of hands-on work. All of the instructors were friendly and helpful and I feel like I learned a lot about doing my eyes. I feel more confident and am looking forward to practicing. I'd love to take another of their classes soon.

This would be an awesome alternative/beginning to a girls night out - relaxed atmosphere, provided makeup (if desired), byob. I learned enough where the class felt worthwhile but not like I had to bring a notebook and pen.

Teachers are so nice and so helpful, you’ll definitely learn something not matter what level your at

Absolutely loved this class! The beauticians were knowledgeable about what looks good based on your skin tone/hair color/beauty goals. Super happy!

I had so much fun at this class! The information shared was super helpful, and by breaking into small groups, we got individual attention/help. Everyone was really nice, and I left feeling like I could do a smokey eye on my own. Would definitely recommend!!

Great Class. So much fun and informative.

I absolutely loved this class. I usually go to youtube for new makeup looks, but it’s so much easier to learn when someone is explaining and demonstrating. There were women if all skills levels here so don’t feel like you need to be at a certain level for this class. It’s super hands on and you get tips for you eye color and eye shape which I really appreciated.

This is an amazing class. I learned so much.

The class was very hands on. The instructors showed us multiple ways to curl our hair depending on what style we were looking for. They also allowed us to use 4 different styling tools to see which one would be best for our hair.

This class was incredibly helpful and so much fun! The instructors were very hands-on and patient with everyone. They gave you the time to do it yourself, but also provided tips along the way. I would highly recommend this class to others. 5 stars!

Great class! The instructor demonstrated all of the contour and highlight steps on another instructor and then gave us individual instruction and had us try the techniques ourselves in groups of 2. I feel equipped to go out and contour and highlight on my own now! As an added bonus, goldplaited sells all the supplies used in class (w/ really reasonable prices), but is not pushy at all about them (and will also recommend products you can buy in Ulta and Sephora).

I really enjoyed this class! It was small enough to get one on one attention and suggestions, and the instructors were really friendly and helpful. I wish we would have learned how to do some finishing with hot tools like they do for blowouts at Dry Bar, especially because I was finished blow drying with >30 minutes left of class time, but I guess I'll have to sign up for their curling iron class. The Goldplaited space is super cute, and although I've been a longtime Dry Bar addict, I will definitely go back to Goldplaited.

This was a fantastic class. I was so fortunate for one on one attention during this class. I learned so much about recreating a blowout at home. My instructor was patient, highly skilled and just all around fantastic. I can't wait to take their curling iron class. Thank you!

Great tips for all skill levels, great individual attention!

I arrived thinking I was the only female on Earth who didn't know how to apply makeup but the class was full! We each went around to introduce ourselves and spoke about why we were there. So many of the same story--tried to do something dramatic with eye shadow and ended up looking like we have a black eye. The instructors demonstrated and explained how to apply for 2 different looks (daytime, nighttime) and then we broke off into groups to practice on ourselves. I'd brought my own shadow but since I realized half way through that my dollar store crap wasn't going to cut it, I used theirs. they are prepared for us to use theirs with their selection of brushes (who knew there were so many makeup brushes!). They were patient and guided us well. The instructors were all makeup professionals and I appreciated their insights. Very valuable class for such a bargain price!

I really enjoyed this. The teachers were adorable and nice and really knew what they were talking about. The place is easy to find and super cute. I’m excited to go back for more classes.

This class was awesome! I feel like I know a decent amount about hair products, but the instructor still taught me some new things about products to use to prep my hair for curling and to maintain the curl. I also thought I had a good base knowledge on how to curl my hair, but I realize I've been doing it wrong all along! There were so many different techniques that I learned across multiple types of tools (regular curling iron, curling wand, flat iron -- yes, it curls!, and a bubble wand). I got to practice on both my own tools, as well as the salons tools. I showed the instructor a few pictures of the type of curls I like best (more beachy waves) and she helped me learn how to use each of the tools to achieve the look I wanted. I never thought these looks would be possible on my hair & I left the class absolutely thrilled. The teacher was really knowledgeable and patient, and was really vested in my learning how to get the looks I wanted. I've been curling my hair every other day since the class and I'm absolutely addicted!

I had a great experience at the All About Eyes class! Sydney walked me through every step to achieving a perfect day and night look. I came to class with many questions and walked away feeling much more confident about applying my own eye makeup. It helped that the class was very hands on and I could work on applying my own eye makeup and have Sydney offer helpful tips along the way. Highly recommend this class.

This class was fantastic! I regularly blowdry my hair at home, but had no real idea of what I was doing and always wondered how I could give myself a blowout more like what I get at a salon. The class was super hands-on and let you actually learn by doing. Loved the small, intimate size of the class too. Totally recommend -- I learned so much!!

This class was awesome. The instructor first demonstrated on half of our faces then walked us through when we did the other half of our face. We even went over a few other tips too. Would definitely recommend.

Enjoyed this class. Learned a lot to take with me. The # of students x:teacher ratio allowed 1:1 assistance which was a plus. I recommend class whether you’re a ‘beginner’ or familiar w/ braiding. Instructors were knowledgeable and helpful.

This was a great, practical class to improve a skill of something I do nearly every day. It definitely was humbling to try to learn a new muscle memory, but I've already noticed an improvement in how my hair looks now that I'm applying the skills I learned in class.

This was a great class. The first half is demo which I was glad for. Not sure I would have been able to jump right in. We then broke off into small groups with very talented and patient instructors (thanks, Becky!) who gave great advice tailored for our individual face shapes and features. Product is available for purchase after the class, but they don't push this on you. It didn't feel like one big commercial when it certainly could have. I'll definitely be back for their curling iron and eye makeup classes!

We had a fun night learning and experimenting with new tools, products and techniques! The class starts with a live demonstration with an open forum for Q&A. She goes into detail regarding the rationale and explanations for professional makeup artists best practices. There is then almost a full hour to practice the techniques on yourself, and the instructor comes by to offer advice and answer questions to achieve a tailored look for your features.

Thought this was really well done - they went over tips & tricks to get different styles using 3 different tools (curling iron, wand and straightener) as well as the various products they recommend to get your desired look. After the ~1 hour tutorial, you have time to practice hands on and they will come around and help you/answer questions.

There were 5 girls in my class and 2 teachers. It was the perfect size! The teachers were able to give 1:1 help when needed. I also really liked the highlighter and will be buying the product when I go back for my next class!

Great class. Learned so much! Highly recommend.

Fantastic class! The instructors explained each technique in a way that was easy to understand and remember. During the hands-on time, we were able to try out the techniques while also having an instructor help us along the way. Would definitely recommend!

I loved learning about the different curling iron options, and the techniques that went along with them. The personal attention was super helpful and there was an overall fun environment. I loved that there were multiple stations set up with the curling irons, and that there was also a brow bar/lipstick station open. Would definitely recommend!

Loved this class! I am pretty hair clueless, so this was just what I needed. There were plenty of teachers to help all the attendees, and they helped us learn several different ways to curl our hair with all different tools.

This class was fun to do with a friend. You get to learn the very basics of contouring and hilighting using the many many products they have. Most of the people in the class knew nothing about contouring at the beginning and we all walked away with fresh faces!

I ended up having a one on one contour consultation. My make up artist was very encouraging and gave me multiple opportunities to try the various techniques myself.

I really enjoyed taking this class. It was a small class and their was a lot of good information shared. I like the fact that they split the class in groups and had some of the stylists were accessible and showing us individually how to apply the makeup. The class was very informative. I also like the salon and I'm highly considering back to have them style my hair.

I loved this class! My friend and I had some experience with braiding so we thought it might be too simple for us, but in the first 15 minutes we had already learned some tips and tricks that made it worth the money! All the ladies at goldplaited are super sweet and gave us one-on-one support to learn the styles we wanted.

The ladies at Goldplaited team up for another great class! While I attempted blow drys as my normal style, I was never able to get that body and movement that I got at a salon. The feedback and individual attention the instructors gave us was amazing and while I still have to practice to quicken my pace, my self blow outs are much improved!

I was hesitant to sign up for this class as I figured I knew how to curl my hair, but my previous class at Goldplaited had been do much fun so I jumped in! Who knew I had been curling my hair wrong? The tips and tricks I learned made the class well worth it!

Great class for beginners. Plenty of instructors for individual teaching. Learned a lot! 4 different types of braids.

I can't echo what the other reviewers have said enough! The instructors were amazing and spent a lot of time showing you the correct placement of different powders to contour and highlight your face shape. They did one side and we mimicked the other in a step by step fashion. As some other reviewers have suggested, bring a pen and paper so you can remember all of their good information!

We learned how to improve the Dutch braid and how to do fishtail and rope braids. The end of class had time to practice French braids as well. The staff was helpful and patient and we went home with new styles to try on our own.

lots of great braiding techniques! i also liked the products they shared with the class to help make it easier

Fun class! The best part was being able to practice with the instructors. However there was no brow instruction as promised and the class only runs till 8:45 (not 9 like the description indicates).

Another excellent class at Gold Plaited! I've also taken Braids 101 (loved it!). The stylists who teach are just so so patient for really hair inept people like myself. We had a good lecture about hair prep for curling hair, watched the stylists explain 4 different curling tools, and then got to try out all 4 tools for the remainder of the class while the stylists walked around to make sure we had everything under control. I left feeling a lot more confident about my hair curling skills.

The class was nice. I would love if they added how to do French braid on yourself.

Great mix between hair and makeup techniques. Hands on help and easy to understand tutorials. Definitely worth taking!

Very fun! Wine and personal coaching. We will be back for another class.

Had a great time at the braiding class! We learned three different braids and then how to do something called festival hair (I think that's the name - it's where you use an elastic headband around your head and tuck the hair under). They had lots of staff on hand to make sure everyone unferstood how each style worked AND the staff was super friendly and patient for hair challenged folks like myself. I've been able to duplicate all of the braids outside of class and have been getting compliments! I would definitely take another class.

Learned valuable lessons like protecting my hair prior to using heat, and what tools work best on my hair type. Overall, super valuable class and will take classes at this location again!

This was a really fun class! I signed up with a girlfriend, and it was BYOB. The class itself was really helpful because the studio went through different styles and tools for curling your hair. We got time at the end of class to practice with every kind of styling tool. They even had a station with lipsticks to try, which was a nice little bonus. I've recommended this class to a lot of people.

The setting for the class was great - very open and friendly. The class set up was informative and the hands on portion was helpful. I could have used just a little more attention during the hands on portion when I was clearly struggling but I walked out of the class with the knowledge of how to use at least one of the tools.

Great class! Loved the hands-on help and small class size!

This class was so much fun! I went with a friend and we both loved the class. I have never liked how much I looked after doing my own makeup. I will definitely be coming back for their other classes.

The artists customized the class for everyone there, giving us all specific tips for highlighting our own features.

LOVED THIS CLASS. I truly feel like I got bang for my buck. I recommend this class to anyone looking to find a new way to SUCCESSFULLY blow dry their hair. I truly have received so many compliments.

I am one of those girls that could never get a hold of curling hair. My curls would never stay for more than an hour and would just drop flat. I have tried curling irons, hot rollers, but nothing worked. So after numerous attempts I just gave up until I signed up for this class. I came by myself, however, I didn't feel awkward or intimidated. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. After an hour or so of theory we started practicing on our own. Becky was especially sweet. She recommended to switch to another type of curling iron that finally worked for my hair. I'm very excited to try their other classes.

So great, definitely recommend!

I loved the class! Great one-on-one time with the instructors and the product I wanted to purchase was available at the end of the class.

Super fun class. Anna was great and I left feeling more confident in doing my eye makeup. Will definitely be back.

It was such a great, hands-on experience! The staff was knowledgeable and they taught me a lot! I highly suggest this class!

Fun and hands-on! Almost as many instructors as there were students, so there was lots of guidance.

I thought the class was great! They made eye make up much less intimidating and fun to do! I particularly enjoyed the one on one, hands-on, "I do one eye, you do the other" approach. I thought that helped a lot in making it more accessible. And all the instructors and salon owners were very nice and helpful - answering questions and being readily available throughout the class.

Learned really easy new hairstyles.

I really enjoyed learning different ways to braid my hair! Gold-plated had a bunch of teachers around to help you out, and I ended up learning some really cute and easy hairstyles!

I'm a little more advanced with makeup but still learned a couple tips & tricks.

Really enjoyed this hands on experience! Definitely got a better idea of how to contour !

The instructors were very knowledgable, experienced and helpful throughout the session.

Awesome experience! Great hands-on learning with tons of help.

Amazing! I had so much fun and learned how to make my hair look bomb. All my friends want me to give them blowouts now! Really good balance between then showing us and doing it ourselves. Plus the girls at the salon were so nice and helpful. Highly recommend.

This was one of the best Dabble classes I've taken! The class included plenty of instructors who were each knowledgeable, friendly, and super helpful, and overall was a perfect mix of demonstration and hands-on experimenting. For some reason I've always been intimidated by the thought of curling my hair, and every time I've tried it hasn't worked out, but now I feel that I have the tools to make it work for me. Highly recommend this course!

This class was so fun and Mal and her team were so helpful. I went in with little confidence in my braiding abilities, but the instructors broke it down step-by-step. We had plenty of time to sip wine, practice on our own, follow along with the instructors, and work and with the teachers one-on-one. I left knowing how to do a Dutch braid, a fishtail braid and a French braid, plus two alternatives to ponytails. I look forward to being the envy of Instagram with my hip braids, and I look forward to more classes at goldplaited!

The team at Goldplaired is awesome! I have taken the curling iron and highlighting class and have walked away with so much. I would highly recommend any of their classes!

Great class! Lot's of one on one help! Detailed demonstrations

It was fun to watch step-by-step the best way to do an easy daytime eye look and have someone show us hands on, the braid bar was great too!

This class was awesome. Perfect for a beginner. I learned so much!

Great class! Learned several different techniques for curling my hair with plenty of time to try out/practice. Having several instructors there was really helpful so everyone got plenty of one-on-one attention. Definitely recommend.

Loved the class. Got some great tips I otherwise wouldn't know!

Pretty good class. Would of loved to learn more braid options versus just the two we did learn.

Such a fun class - I encouraged 4 of my girl friends to sign up with me. Everyone loved it - and we all learned a few new tricks when it comes to curling.

I appreciated the "do on yourself" training. I can do lots styles on others, but this class focused on tips on how to do various braids on your own hair, which was great. I also liked the tips on how to do styles I normally do (side bun) in a new/ more interesting way. Good "101" class.

The instructor (Anna) was awesome, informative and very easy to answer my questions. It seemed like she got around to each person and there was also other makeup artists there so there was a lot of personal or one-on-one contact. I plan on going to all the classes at this place.

This class was great! First, they offered the participants white wine upon entering, which was both unexpected and welcomed! There were only six people in my session with three teachers, so there was a lot of one on one help along the way. It was well-paced and differentiated; some people caught on faster than others, and the instructors were able to help everyone. They even stayed past the end time to teach people any braids they hadn't covered in class. They were all very kind and helpful. While most of the other participants knew each other, I went in alone. However, I never felt awkward or left out, in large part because of the instructors. I hope they offer an intermediate braiding course of some kind to keep going!

I LOVED this class. I've always been able to curl my hair but never knew how to make different types of curls with different hot tools. Plus they show you great tips on how to make your curls stay longer. I walked out there with a bunch of new products in hand and feeling beautiful! Loved this class!

highly recommend!!!!

This class was very informative and hands-on. The instructor had us do most of the work, but was constantly available offering helpful tips. The flow of the class was great, and I feel comfortable doing it on my own now.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Mal, Co and the rest of the staff at goldplaited are. I am hopeless when it comes to doing my hair for special occasions, but after the braided upstyles class not only was I able to recreate everything later at home, but I had several people ask if I had my hair professionally done! I would 12/10 recommend this class.

My favorite class so far. I enjoyed the smaller class size and individual attention given by the teachers.

I really enjoyed the class and it was far more information than i anticipated. My only critique is there was a ton of information on products and tools and technique. It was almost too much to take in. I wish they gave us a cheat sheet when we left that just named at least what they used, if not by brand name, just by tool (i.e. fan brush, highlighter, etc.)

Enjoyed the experience! Plenty of makeup artists to assist and help us select eye shadow colors. Helpful demonstration of techniques by the owner and another make-up artist. The hands-on ability for us to follow along was the true value. I was gently pushed into trying something new. And, I purchased some concealer that I love. Just this morning through away 4-5 different types I had ongering in my makeup drawer. I finally found something that works. (and I cover it gently with MACs CC/BB concealer powder).

I had a great time at this class. The teachers were very helpful and knowledgable. The only thing I would suggest is that I would have preferred to do more of the blowdry on my own. The teachers helped a lot which was nice but then it makes it harder for me to then go home and do it independently. Overall, great experience. I would definitely take another class there again.

This class was fun and insightful, though I probably wouldn't rate it a beginners' class. If you already know how to braid and french braid well, then this class is probably great for your skill level. I unfortunately didn't have enough of a base level of braid knowledge and skill to take much away from the class. In addition, most of the class is demonstration - there isn't a ton of hands-on learning.

The instructors gave very clear instructions and provided LOTS of hands on support. I learned so much and had lots of fun.

I loved this class! Out of the 10 or so Dabble classes I've taken, this has been the one that has taught me the most. Super personalized attention and non-judgmental atmosphere. Will definitely practice the techniques on my own and would definitely recommend Goldplaited.

Fun evening, easy step by step on how to apply eye makeup.

Tremendously informative! It's nice to have the know-how to achieve the bouncy, smooth post-salon look myself. The class was fun, and we moved at our own pace. Special attention and tips were given for our specific hair types.

I loved this class! It was so helpful and the individual attention I got was great. The Gold Plaited team answered all questions I had, so now I can blow out my own hair with ease!

I learned so much from this class! It's awesome that we got so much personal attention and advice on how to deal with our own hair types. All the teachers were really friendly and offered great information.

This class was great! The hand's on instruction really helped. I learned to curl my hair almost perfectly with a straightening iron which I had never been able to do! I will definitely be back for more classes

Great opportunity to use different types of curling irons and tools. The demonstration and hands-on help was good for someone who is hand-eye uncoordinated like me!

Very good teacher and demonstrator. There should be two demonstrators at the same time -- one for long hair and one for medium/short hair.

After the lecture, the teachers should walk around more to the various students.

This is a great beginners class for someone who isn't confident in applying make up. My favorite part of the class is when you break into small groups and the instructors give you hands on help and you can ask questions and get advice.

I absolutely loved this course. While I'm much more of a "5-minute face" type of girl, the techniques they taught and the products I was introduced to will remain in my beauty arsenal for years to come. The goldplaited team was professional, friendly and helpful. I will definitely be checking out their future classes.

I really enjoyed the class. I learned a lot and liked the demo portion and having a hands on portion!

This was a really fun class, with plenty of time to try out some demonstrated braid styles with opportunity for one-on-one correction and advice. All the ladies at Goldplaited were super nice and helpful. I even got to try a fun bold lip color and try out their brow highlighter - which I purchased and LOVE! I feel like it makes my eyes look brighter and I look more put together every morning. I've even rocked a few braids this past week, as have the friends I brought to this class.

I had a great experience at this event. the staff is very welcoming and went out of their way to make everyone feel welcome. As the hairstylist was demonstrating the hairstyles, she was happy to answer questions and more then willing to repeat a step. After the demonstrations, we we're given one on one time with the hairstylist. I had very much enjoyed my experience with this salon and I highly recommend this class. I've signed up for their hair curling lesson and I can't wait!

The class was very informative and as always the ladies that own and teach at Goldplaited are professional, courteous, and fun. The "how-to" part where the stylist showed how to curl her hair on herself was a bit long but other than that the class was great. I learned how to use my wand that I've been wanted to use for years!

The class was very informative and we'll taught. The instructors were very helpful. Had a good time

This was a very informative and fun class. The environment was clean and attractive. I felt like I got one on one attention.

Loved this class! Very fun and informative, makes me actually want to curl my hair now because it is easier than it looks!

It was a fun class. They were very helpful and patient with my lack of experience. I would love to take another class with them.

Great class! We learned how to use 5 or 6 different curling irons and tips on how to prep the hair. Very informative and well taught.

This class was so fun! We learned four different updo/braid styles, then got to try them out ourselves. They have sparkling wine and refreshments for attendees, and all the teachers were so nice and helpful. I could barely do a ponytail before class, and now I can actually create a braided updo that doesn't look like a complete mess.

Not only did I learn how to contour, but I finally figured out how to tease my hair! This class was worth it.

Absolutely loved this class such a good time and learned some great new tricks! Will definitely be going back to goldplaited :)

I came into the class not knowing how to do a SINGLE THING to do with my hair, and left having mastered not one but two awesome updos. Teachers give good clear demonstrations and are super-patient, and there are tons of supplies and mirrors around so you can try it all out yourself. I really appreciated that they were willing to spend one-on-one time with you to help you figure out how to master each style. If I can learn this stuff, anyone can.

Great class and lovely instructors. They had many curling wands I did not know existed! You will definitely find something for yourself. Also, after the class, you can purchase the products you were using.

Secret tip: Come early(ish) and sit in the middle! The instructors try their best, but it is way harder to follow when you are siting on the side.

Loved this class! Mal and Corinna and their staff are so warm and welcoming. They went over different types of curling irons and straighteners, some I hadn't even heard of before, and their studio is such a beautiful setting. I even got hands-on make-up tips for eyebrows and lips. Loved this class!

Very informative on how to use various tools and products, and included personal recommendations. Fun environment.

What an awesome and fun class! Great instructors - patient, fun, helpful. Great product recommendations!

The class was a lot of fun. The timing of everything was great. I loved the instructors -- they were helpful. I left feeling more confident about an updo I'd want to repeat and also got bonus make-up tips!

Excellent class! I walked away with skills that I feel like I can actually use and pull off! The staff at goldplaited are friendly and awesome. I also loved the bonus brow fill in tips! Thanks for a great evening ladies!

Great experience! Learned some really good techniques for curling my hair because apparently I had been doing it wrong for years ha! I would recommend this class.

Went with my sister and had a lovely time learning how to maintain quality waves:) Would recommend to others! Doesn't matter your hair type, they got the tools and advice for you:)

Curling irons have always frightened me. I've been a hot curlers gal since I was a kid, and frankly, I thought I'd stay that way. After Mal's class, however, I not only learned about every. single. kind. of curling iron that exists, but which one was best for my hair/look, and then learned how to use it in class so I'd look great every time. Take time in class to really explore the different curling irons, let Mal's team walk you through different looks, and bring your own tools, too: If you're not in the market to buy something new, they'll show you how best to work with what you've got. I'll definitely be back to this class to hone my skills.

I came to Mal's class with lots of questions and left with gorgeous makeup, a renewed self-confidence in applying eye makeup, and even learned how to fishtail braid! There is so much to learn in class (products, brushes, technique) but the goldplaited team makes it really easy to learn new things. They walk around for the last half of class and answer questions, show you how to perfectly apply liner, and give you little hacks that are absolutely priceless. I highly recommend this class to anyone - it was fabulous!

I took this class with 2 girlfriends and we all LOVED it. I specifically wanted to learn to do waves/curls with my straightener--success! The instructor was really funny and also encouraged questions. After the demo, there were other stylists available to work with students 1-on-1. Best $20 I've spent in awhile!!

the teacher seemed very informative and knew what they were talking about. Overall the content was great!

I wish I had a class like this 10 years ago. Oh, the awkward hair days it would have saved me! I learned just the tricks I needed to create polished and beachy waves that looks SO much better than anything I could do before. This class will pay for itself a billion times over.

The class was a lot of fun and I even learned how to do a fishtail braid, which I'm very excited about. Thanks GP!

I loved the Updo class! We learned 5 new hairstyles during the class and had time to practice with the help of the instructors. I plan to add 3 of the hairdo's to my regular routine. Very fun!

I LOVED this class, Mal and all the instructors were so informational and friendly, I learned some new tips and tricks and am interested in attending another class!

loved the braid tutorial! I learned a really cute braid style. Eye makeup was great for beginner and those who don't wear much makeup on a daily basis. I watch a lot of youtube so found this to be a review of what I already knew.

Great salon! Learned a lot, and a fun, easy night.

Super great. Marisol was very patient and everyone was very understanding of what little skills you might bring to the table. I loved learning about all the different curling implements and trying them out to see which one worked best for you and which one was the easiest to use. They also included a lip and brow tutorial which was a great added bonus!

I absolutely loved this class and the whole experience! It was fun yet ever so helpful for even the most makeup or braiding challenged gal! I took away quite a few gems that I am already working into my daily routine and I honestly cannot wait to come back for another class!

This was an excellent class - both the teaching and hands-on portion were so helpful. The staff were friendly, and the sales were great.

The ladies of goldplaited led an excellent class. If you're a beginner, or even an experienced personal hair stylist, I guarantee that you will walk away with a least one new trick. I certainly did!

This class was awesome! I really learned a lot. There was a lot of interaction with the instructors. I can't wait to go back again! The salon itself is really cute too.

I decided to try this class because I have had NO luck with curling my hair. I even bought an expensive Chi iron and did not know how to use it. Everyone was really nice and they showed all of us some great tips. I just stuck to the iron I brought so I could get tips on how to finally use it correctly. They had lots of irons to try out. I learns some good brow tips too! I would highly recommend this class and have already told a bunch of friends about it (some even know how to curl their hair well and still want to take it!). I will defiantly sign up for their other classes!

Love all the dabble classes here! Learned some great tips and have new products to try out! Always get compliments from all the new things I try out

The class was great. Fun and interactive. Will definitely go to another class hosted there. I enjoyed the hands on portion.

I finally know how to make a winged tip eye - thanks Marguerite! Everyone at Goldplaited was friendly, helpful, & knowledgable. The braid bar with Megan was a fun addition to this class!

I had such a great time at this class. All of the staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and welcoming. What a great place! The demonstration, instruction and tips were excellent. Highly recommend.

The first half of the class two instructors demoed different types of curling irons and the last half was open to go to different stations to try the irons. I think this class is best for someone that doesn’t know what type of curling iron to use. I didn’t leave being an expert at curling hair but I did leave with a new iron!

Having trouble curling my own hair. Was never really good at those things, to begin with. It just takes a little more effort on my part.

The ladies at the salon are very helpful, fun, and great at teaching the basics and then some. We got to play around with different curling irons. I may sign up again, as I haven't been practicing!!!!

A lot of opportunities to practice on your own hair with their guidance The brows and champagne were great added bonuses!

Teachers were experienced and very friendly. Everyone got one on one attention. Most importantly I feel like I mastered the skill!

Fun class!

Loved this class - the girls demonstrated how to use various curling irons and how to achieve different looks. I finally figured out what I was doing wrong all of these years! It was a fun atmosphere and the owners made us feel right at home!

I've been curling my hair for many years, but did not know any of the techniques taught in this class, so it was very beneficial to me. I can't recommend this class enough! Well worth my time/money, and the free drinks and makeup tutorials were great extras. Fun and informative, and I'm putting the skills I learned to good use! All of the gals who taught were very knowledgeable and helpful.

Megan was excellent! She has patience and is very willing to answer all your questions. If you are looking to learn a lot in the class, ask for her! You won't be disappointed!

My friend and I went to the curling iron class after work. We brought wine but they had champagne ready to serve and the shop was pretty and clean. The demos were great and after we could try out the different techniques, drink more wine and chat with the other ladies. I went back the following week to get a blowout before my friends wedding. Very quick and reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back!

Had a great time in Curling Iron class! I've been wanting to take a class like this for years so was really looking forward to it. The teachers demonstrated multiple types of irons then let us go to it while stepping in to help. I learned a ton and excited to use the tips I learned!

I learned so much more than I expected to in this class! I didn't realize there are new curling irons on the market that literally do all the work for you. I bought a new curling iron there (heavily discounted) and I took it home and curled my entire head of hair in 10 minutes and it was so easy and fun! I love my new iron and the new techniques I learned. Great, great class.

I really enjoyed the beachy make up tips more than the hair. The salon is super cute and the girls are all very nice!

This class was great! I have never been able to get curls to stay without first dousing my hair in hairspray. You learn how to use several curling irons, then you get to practice on your own hair with the help of the staff. I learned how to use a straightener to curl my hair, and it lasts longer than 1 hour!!

Goldplaited is very easy to get to. We were welcomed with Champagne and/or water which was a delight! All Goldplaited personnel were pleasant and professional. Great hair and makeup tips were demonstrated. We even had a chance to experiment with their curling irons and makeup. It was fun!

I really enjoyed this class - it was a great mix of demonstrating techniques on a model and then getting to try things hands on. The instructors encouraged us to play with all the products and provided 1:1 advice on achieving the desired look. I also found a new favorite hair product brand! There was zero sales pressure to buy stuff, but I'm pretty sure most people did buy products because they were great.

This was a great class and made for a great girls night! The owners and the staff were very welcoming and personal. The shop is very trendy and cute. This class was very fun and informative. The make-up portion was awesome. As someone who is very intimidated by makeup they really made me feel at ease and taught techniques that I feel like I could replicate. The hair styles portion was very basic but fun. The girl who did the hair portion was very patient with the curling your hair with a straight net technique.

Super helpful class. It was neat to be able to see the technique and then be able to try the tools on your own afterwards.

Super practical class. Good for beginners. Makes trying to add some basic fundamentals to looking "glam" less intimidating.

Good class to learn a few quick tips. Everyone at Goldplaited was so friendly - can't wait to go back for hair & makeup.

I had always thought that the way to a smokey eye was more and more eyeshadow.....yet my smokey eye never turned out smokey.....just one giant blob of one solid color! I loved this class for teaching me a fool-proof method to the smokey-eye and even how to tame it down with neutral colors for an everyday look! This class was so much fun and after being all did up, I just wish I had somewhere to go after!

I have taken 3 classes with Goldplaited and am completely HOOKED! All the classes have been super informative and super fun! It is in such a cute and comfortable environment, that you will walk about with a smile (and great hair, makeup, lips, etc)! The Braids & Brow class was awesome. I just started to fill in my brows this past year and have no clue why I didn't start sooner! We were taught different techniques and make up to use and I noticed such a different! The braiding class was so fun and honestly have been practicing and braiding my hair like crazy! With every class there is the lipstick bar and you get matched with a fun color, it's the icing on the cake! I have gone to these classes solo and with gal pals....either way, you will have an awesome time and meet great peeps!

I had a great time at the Brows and Braids class. I had never tried a brow product before and loved seeing the subtle difference in using the products provided. The braiding portion of the class was so fun! Marisol made it look so easy, and she had several different styles to show off depending on your hair length. I would definitely try another Goldplaited class to experiment with different hair and makeup styles!

Loved it -- so much fun!

It was a very helpful 1 hour class! They demonstrated several curling techniques with different curling iron types. They even coached you through as you practiced with their tools, which was the best part. I left with better knowledge of how to use a curling iron, a recommended hair product and lipstick color. The champagne and macaroons were a great addition! Would definitely check out another class by gold plaited.

I attended the curling iron class & had a great time learning all about different curling tools, products and styles! Great atmosphere & adorable salon! I am so bummed I can't make the make-up night on Feb 13th but I do hope I can make the smokey eye! ~Lexi

I thought it was great! The class size was perfect and I definitely learned more than I expected to. They had great tools, products and advice!

I thought the class content was helpful and pretty simple to follow. I would recommend the class to a beginner with makeup.

The class was nicely sequenced. The instructor began with explaining what products and tools would be necessary and how they would be used, also explaining how our hair types would necessitate different types of products. They moved into a demonstration, then individually walked us through the blowout portion. The class ended early, but the instructors all waited until everyone had asked every question they would ever want to ask. I feel like I have the tools to start trying my own blowouts at home, although I still need to practice a bit. Lots of people complemented on how great my hair looked the next couple days and I loved telling them I did it myself!

The class was good for beginners who struggle with eye make up. You will learn about brushes and products to use.

We had a small group for this class and two instructors, so they broke us up into two groups for a more hands-on lesson. There wasn't a set agenda outside of the instructor doing your eye makeup and explaining what she was doing. It was nice to have more of a 1:1 experience, but it was clear the two instructors had different styles and tips. At one point I leaned over to the other group to listen in. The lesson was what you made of it - definitely ask questions and probe for more demonstration.

I really enjoyed the class because of the people who were teaching - clearly knowledgeable, but really accessible. The location was great and the glass of wine set a fun tone to the night! I was excited to learn how to work with three different "hot tools" (the barrel, flat iron and wand) but was disappointed that there weren't different "kinds" of curls taught. We only got two different ways to create a curl when we worked with the wand - but I've seen videos where there are up to six different kinds which can be created - even just with the barrel!

I got some good tips, but I don't feel any better with my use of a curling iron. I think I need hours and hours of practice! The class was a little too crowded for the teachers to be able to help everyone.
