Testimonial

Brie Bogard – Nail Tech at Estillo Salon and Day Spa

“I graduated a cosmetologist, but decided nails were my passion. PCI Academy helped me because I was encouraged to follow what I believed I wanted to do. They were all very encouraging and supportive with me pursuing my nail tech goals. It gave me the encouragement that I needed. It also gave me the boost that I needed and the self confidence that I needed. And now, here I am!”
