Aug. 8, 2012 - PRLog -- Cosmetology students at at International Academy of Hair Design in Mesa, Tempe, Phoenix and West Phoenix are helping students ages 4-18 return to school in style with a variety of back to school specials.
    The specials include: buy one get one free haircuts; $2 off any regularly priced haircut; $4 off acrylic nail services and 15% off all Peter Hantz retail products.
     “By offering deep discounts to our already reasonably-priced services, we can help ensure more students can go back to school in style,” said Jessica Wolman, one of the owners of the award-winning cosmetology schools.
     The cosmetology school is offering the Back to School specials now through Sept. 30, 2012.  The cosmetology students perform the services under the supervision of a licensed instructor.  No appointment is necessary.
