    I had an amazing experience with Laara Raynier and Caroline Byl! The class gave me the tools to relearn some foundational hair cutting techniques and helped me realize things I need to work on to make myself the best stylist I can be! I would definitely recommend the class to others and look forward to taking more classes with Laara in the future! Katie
