I just had my hair cut by Jean Lynch and she did a perfect job. The level of work she does for how long she's been in school is unbelievable and she's only going to get better. She should be proud of herself and the school should be as well!!!


Feb 05, 2025

This is my new favorite place!!! I have gone to Sarah twice now for a few different services and she is exceptional! Very professional, very knowledgeable and listens to exactly what I want. I love my results!! Can't wait to see what she does with my color and highlights!!! Highly recommend her.

Liv was great. I went in for a facial and ended up falling asleep that's how good it was. Even ended up getting a hair wash and blow dry. Highly recommend her for an service you need. Would do 10 stars if I was able to.

Hannah is amazing she was able to fit me in on New Years Eve. She taught me finger curls. Girl, you were amazing and your patience is impeccable. Can't wait to come back for my son's perm. Thank you and the school for having a professional and fun environment to hang out in

Danielle provided me excellent professional service during my pedicure appointment at Empire-North Hills. Her massaging technique was outstanding for my leg circulation.


Jan 06, 2025

I had a great experience with Kaniya! I am going back in January. I wear my hair natural, and she was knowledgeable and careful about my hair! I had a shampoo, condition, and blow dry. I usually do my own hair, but needed help with that part before figuring out what style I braid. I appreciated her professionalism and joy 💖


Jan 06, 2025

I’ve had my hair done by Jean twice now and I couldn’t be more pleased! She listened to what I wanted and completely nailed it each time. She keeps it very professional during appointments but also makes it so much fun!


Dec 06, 2024

Cherish washed and massaged my scalp, along with a perfect trim and a stitch braiding (natural).


Dec 06, 2024

I am so so glad that I came to the school. Kaniya was first of all was extremely friendly and professional. I showed her 2 pictures and let her decide, she was supervised periodically by her instructor and needed very little direction and made no mistakes. She was extremely pleasant and good conversation. I’m even going back Friday so she can color it. I highly recommend her. My family and will be going to here.


Dec 06, 2024

I love coming here. Yes, they are beauty students. But the instructors are there every step of the way from consultation to the end. They discuss with the student every step, every plan, every action. I feel as comfortable here as I am at a salon. Plus? I get to help someone hone their skills.


Dec 06, 2024

I went there for hair wash and trim. The student name Lenel B did an outstanding job, I would recommend her services even when she graduates.


Dec 06, 2024

I had the pleasure to get serviced by Keana Player today. I was very comfortable in her chair and absolutely love the attention to detail. The way that her peers and clients complimented my hair as she was doing it made me feel that I would be leaving as a new woman. That , I did!! Thankyou for the great positive energy I experienced today Keana. -N. Gee

At Empire Beauty School, Hanna's shampoo and blow dryer my hair services are exceptional. The shampoo not only cleanses effectively but also nourishes the hair, leaving it soft and manageable. The blow dryer technique is impressive, ensuring a smooth, frizz-free finish that lasts. Overall, the experience is both professional and enjoyable, making it an ultimate choice for anyone seeking quality hair care.


Oct 06, 2024

Had a dark auburn balayage done by Lenel B. and she did amazing!! This is one of my favorite colors I’ve gotten in years, and she was a pleasure to be a guest for. I’ve gotten a few color services done here and feel they always do a great job. The instructor, Amber, also was very kind and collaborative. Will definitely be returning.


Oct 06, 2024

I was seen by Hanna and was more than pleased with her professionalism. Hanna made sure that the wax was very detailed and neat. Hanna has a bright future ahead in her career.


Oct 06, 2024

Jay is amazing! I went in for a haircut, and she absolutely nailed it. She listened to what I wanted and made sure I was happy with every detail :]


Oct 06, 2024

Jay rocked it! I have been to two different salons in the Pittsburgh area for an inverted bob, both times it turned out as a blunt bob. Jay took the time to learn the technique from her instructors and then proceeded to finish the best inverted bob I have gotten in the Pittsburgh area! Jay also took the time to determine the best products to use on my hair and suggested what will work best for my personal use.


Sep 06, 2024

Friendly service and clean shop, Hanna did a great job with using the clippers to cut my hair.
