What will the program be like? |
| A. |
During the first three months of the program, students will spend the majority of their time in class, learning theory, working on mannequins, enjoying guest speakers and submerging themselves in the Tranquility culture. After the first three months, students will begin to work on the salon floor with clients practicing the systems and techniques they have been learning on mannequins and in theory. They will also participate in special programs like going to a hair show and seeing what goes on behind the scenes, learning art principles from an artist and taking part in in-class competitions designed to cultivate imagination and creativity.

| Q. |
How do I go about applying to be a student? |
| A. |
The first step would be to come in and see the academy and get an information packet on our school. If you are not in the area, feel free to call us and we will be more than happy to mail you a packet.
If you decide that our academy is something you are interested in, the next step would be to set up a time to meet with Gloria Harding, the owner of Tranquility Day Spa & Salons as well as the primary teacher at Tranquility Deisgn Academy. She will be able to answer all of your questions and help you with any concerns you may have.
Then there is a required interview with Gloria that all applicants must take before they can become a student. If you know that you are highly interested, you can arrange to have the interview the same day you meet with Gloria.
The interview is the last step in the application for students; the decision process will start after the application is finished. There is no application deadline, nor is there a decision deadline for the school so admissions are done in order of applications. |

YES! We love to do hair and makeup for wedding parties! We also do hair for prom, as well. Call in advance to ensure getting your desired appointment time and date. Please note that there is a wedding agreement for all wedding parties, and since we only have a limited number of students we do not accept parties larger than our current class size. |
