As I complete the full specialty program today, I have to say that I had a great experience here! The instructors are amazing. Mrs.Tammy and Ms. Brittany are the absolute best instructors for nails. They take the time to work one on one with each student in the classroom. I have to give a huge shout out to Mrs.Tanya for going above and beyond to help me get through school. She can be the hardest person to get ahold of at times, but that is because everyone in the school needs her! She has a heart of gold and listens to every problem brought her way. She is very knowledgeable and will break down any scenario you may need to understand. I am proud to have been apart of this school family!

I came in on Friday in bind for someone to color my daughter’s hair for her upcoming prom night due to a canceled appointment. Long story short, they were able to help and get my daughter’s hair the exact color she was looking for. I was highly impressed with the turnout. Leilany did an amazing job and I highly recommend her for your hair color needs.

I highly recommend Rachel. She’s a student but by far exceeds expectations every time. She is AMAZING. All the instructors are nice, and provide guidance when needed. However, the students seem to know what they are doing and not need help very often. I also recommend Vinny. He did my sons hair a little while back. My son is 2 and a wiggle worm. He also was scared and cried until we found something that distracted him. Vinny was so patient and my sons hair came out great! All around great experiences every time I go here. I’ve attached the end result of my hair from my last visit.

My experience (as a retired beautician) with Brooksvilles Benes Academy, Miss Tammy, (Instructor) and student John Paul have shown exceptional instruction and awareness of individuals specific hair textures and stylingJohn Paul asked what, why and how I th Miss Tammy, during his styling of my specific hair texture along with great personality.I felt relaxed, and trust their judgement in styling.

Took the restricted barber course at benes. It was a great experience. I developed skill and learned how to connect with others while they sit in my chair. Mr. Rob , Mr. Len, and Mrs. Tanya are awesome instructors and took me to the next level when getting prepared for my career in barbering. Mrs Tanya helped me stay organized and motivated me through my time there. She constantly helped me cast vision for my career. Mr Len helped me with technical skill and taught me what it is really like behind the chair. Mr. Rob helped me out with financial advice and creating my schedule and structure in my business. I recommend going to benes to get your career going.

Miss Tanya is absolutely amazing I took the skin care program along with nails and I can assure you she is a goddess in skin!! I have learned so much from taking her courses and I highly recommend taking her lash course and teeth whitening course. You get certificates in both courses and can make so much extra revenue. What a great school to come and further your career

Ernys at Bene’s Career Academy is an excellent barber! He did a fantastic job with my high fade; it looks really sharp. He paid close attention to my concerns about some extra long hairs and took the time to trim them exactly how I wanted. His attention to detail and skill are impressive. I would highly recommend Ernys for anyone looking for top-notch barber services. Great experience overall!

I was a student here talking the nail corse and I had an amazing experience. The students and instructors here are all welcoming and so helpful. They give you amazing tips and advice while still letting you learn at your own pace. I would recommend anyone go to this school but if you are a client please remember these are student who are learning and would appreciate your kindness and patience.

Excellent place to learn and grow from, learned a lot being here with my classmates and teachers, thanks a lot to Ms.Tanya that helped me with everything and anything i needed in this journey plus she made everything simple for me.

I got a full set acrylic set here today and this place is amazing. my tech Sierra was soo awesome and gave me the sickest nails, she rlly paid attention to every detail and you could tell took a lot of pride in her work. the atmosphere there was super supportive and fun, everyone was incredibly friendly to me and seemed to rlly care abt each other and their work/learning. everyone was like gathered around to look at my nails and complimenting me and my techs amazing work. also you cannot beat the price!! it was only $25 for these bad boys (but pls also come prepared to tip as well!) and again shoutout to sierra for doing me so right and being so sweet!! she was amazing

I almost cant express how happy I am that I walked into the Brooksville location for a $5. hair cut. From the minute I walked in the front door until walked out with the biggest smile and sense of service that I havent experienced in years.This cosmetology academy will make you feel better than if you just spent $50 at some boojie salon... and my cut was better looking than the expensive ones. So, everyone was exceptionally kind and Darren, my barber, delivered MORE than I ever expected.My gratitude and thankfulness to the exceptional professional service, detailed workmanship and kindness standards that I know is part of the DNA of this business. Bravo!

This place was recommended by an acquiescence and I have to say I was very pleased with the service I received. I got a mani and pedi with gel and it was absolutely beautiful. Might want to set aside a few hours depending on the students because some are new. Place was clean and people were very friendly.

I just graduated a week ago the vibe at the school is very nice, we treat each other as one big family. Mrs. Tanya and Miss Tiffany!! are amazing at what they do! I have learned a lot from them. Their passion and dedication is beyond words! Thank you for getting me through this skin care course, I honestly would have never did it with out your help and support! Thank you so much once again!

Review 17 (2019-06-14 - Rating: 5)
I had a wonderful experience! I came in as a walk in and was taken in almost right away. I had the best highlights out in that I have ever had - done by Darren and overseen by the instructor Zack. They gave great attention to detail then styled it. I have never seen my hair done so beautifully! They were very professional but also very fun to be around and very pleasant - very talented! I would not have expected to be seen right away as this is a school and there are many variations from day to day. Go for the results!

Review 18 (2022-02-25 - Rating: 5)
These people really love what they do and you can feel it in the air! This is a very welcoming place and be prepared to leave more beautiful than ever! Jessica has done my hair twice now and the passion she has really makes the difference in the experience and results! You have found yourself a regular :) ❤️

I cant thank Mrs. Tanya enough for the services I received today. Eyebrow waxing and tint, lash lift and tint, facial, body wrap. I have never felt so pampered before. The girls were great along with their teacher. Thank you again for such a wonderful day.

Review 20 (2016-06-09 - Rating: 4)
Ive been twice, and both times were good. the prices are awesome, and the people learning are really good at taking their time, because they want to get it right. I had highlights, they turned out beautifully. the instructor helped with my hair, its pretty thick, but I think they are there to learn, so.... I will go again.!! :)

Im a former student at Benes; it is a pretty good place to start your career. Excellent staff excellent teachers good students great students. Just know they teach basics & black hair care is NOT included... Hair is NOT one size fits all. When I started staff was more diverse to include a few different cultures...but it started dwindling. You have to keep an open mind and learn a lot on your own. That sounds bad, but what makes the place great is that when you need help & motivation to keep going... You got it. So 5 stars for that. If you choose to attend, you will be fine... Just make sure you ask plenty of questions... Most schools are no longer set up in the old way of education where someone actually stands out front and teaches & makes sure everyone understands before moving on. Keep an open mind, be determined to get yours, stay focused, pursue your goals... Get in, get out, get your license... My advice; My opinion.

The skincare(facials) department is simply amazing!!! Ive been coming here for several years and now that Ms. Tonya is the instructor, the care I receive is far superior, the students are amazing. Tanya is very knowledgeable about the skin care products I buy to help my aging skin. I was skeptical years ago but I look forward to my weekly facials. What a great difference in my skin! This place is AMAZING and inexpensive!!!!!

I had a wonderful experience here, as a student and a client! Miss Tanya is a exceptional instructor and she goes above and beyond for her students to ensure that they leave confident and knowledgeable, the Skin Care class has forever impacted my life and I have memories I will carry for my lifetime, I highly recommend this school, everyone is nice and accepting!

This school has not only given me more schooling to add to my future , but it has made me feel right at home. They are all like family to me now and I will always stay in touch . The style of teaching here isnt just a classroom to just learn and understand everything you need to know , but they really care about the students. Life happens and they will work with you but there understanding. This school has really given me the education and support to give another career for my family and they make you feel like you really matter. The students understand eachother and we all work as a team. I love benes and Im really glad I chose to be there. I took full specialty skin and nails, eyelashes ,spray tanning . Its got great prices and they really work with you 2♥️

High-end, professional, caring, with amazing results! Bene’s Career Academy is top of the line when it comes to skincare. From their stellar instructor to the quality of products(BioEloments), and the effectiveness of their procedures, I have been able to transform my skin and gain a whole new level of self-confidence. Theyre the only place I trust with my skincare routine. I go to Tanya Webb’s class for my weekly facials to keep my skin bright and clear and I just finished a Chemical peel for sun damage. I am going to follow up soon with microneedling Which Tanya is my go-to for all things skincare. I cannot thank you guys enough and I am looking forward to my upcoming appointments! I highly recommend Tonya or any of her amazing students to anyone who struggles with skin or is just looking for a little boost in self-confidence!

Ive (Rhonda) been going there for quite awhile. Ive never been touch inappropriately nor did I witness any such conduct you mentioned.You should go back to Fantastic Sams...heard they are fantastic...👀😃 or bring something to do and not be so idle. I find it really strange, & honestly dont believe it. Perhaps he brushed up against you. You should not be taking students that need those hours and tips.

Review 34 (2019-08-15 - Rating: 5)
Mrs.Tanya and Mrs. D are the most loving and patient teachers! Really enjoyed my experience there. Mrs.Tanya goes wayy above and beyond to make skincare such a fun and educational class.
