The AFHS Cosmetology Class invites you to attend their salon clinic tomorrow, November 23rd. Our students, under the guidance of our experienced instructors, are working hard to perfect their skills, and we would love for you to come experience their talent firsthand.
Whether you're looking for a haircut, color treatment, manicure, or other salon services, our clinic provides professional-level care at a fraction of the cost. Not only will you receive high-quality services, but you'll also be supporting our students as they build their skills and prepare for their future careers. Please note that the only form of payment we accept is cash. Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins are also welcome. We recommend arriving early because clients are seen on a first-come first-serve basis. We look forward to seeing you there and appreciate you supporting our program!
