Student Testimonials

Harriet Wilson

From a very young age, I fell in love with the thought of becoming a beauty therapist one day. When it reached grade 11 in high school, I came across Demi International. I enrolled myself at Demi international to complete my diploma of beauty therapy whilst still completing high school. Thursday’s were always my favourite day of the week because I got to miss school and go down to the beauty academy. My teacher Donna had so much knowledge and always put her students first.

After one and a half years of completing my diploma of beauty therapy, I was finally able to graduate. Whilst still completing the rest of grade 12 I had my qualification as a fully qualified beauty therapist. I am now completing grade 12 and also running my own salon which has always been a dream of mine!

If it wasn’t for Demi International Beauty Academy and my beautiful teacher Donna, I would not be in the position I am today! I am forever grateful for my amazing experience at Demi International.
