I have been getting my hair cut and styled at the barber COLLEGE IN GRAND PRAIRE. Since 1991, I have never received a bad haircut. The student are great and they are were well supervised by Miss Cano. If I were a millionaire , I will still go to the Barber COLLEGE IN GRAND PRAIRIE. May God continue to bless them and their students. Salud, Hector
