Upon learning of my interest in cosmotology school, my hairstylist highly recommend that if possible, I attend the Pismo Institute of Beauty Culture over the much closer Santa Maria Beauty College only because the classes at Pismo are much smaller and students receive more one-on-one time with instructors. So, I called the Pismo school to ask questions and they were super friendly and answered all my questions and invited me in for a spontaneous tour at my convenience during their regular hours. A couple days later I showed up unnanounced and was treated like an invited guest.
Pros: Postive Atmosphere, Sun-lit facility, Great reputation
Cons: Farther than I want to drive
