The Original La James College

Emily is a lifesaver on top of being a Rock Star makeup artist and hair stylist. The night before my wedding my makeup artist had to cancel. Emily came through in such a big way, took the stress off, looked at the makeup style I wanted and executed perfectly. I gave her creative control of my hairstyle and it was so much prettier than I had initially imagined, just waves. She added a boho braid to make sure my tresses weren't blowing in my face during the windy outdoor winter setting we chose. Gracie came to assist with the lashes and her own lash glue after the glue I had just wasn't working like we wanted. They saved the experience of being the bride, pampered, taken care of and made it perfect. I cannot thank the girls and staff enough. Absolutely go see Emily! You won't be disappointed! Second visit on 3.3.22...Emily didn't disappoint yet again. My tresses look amazing if I do say so myself.

I have officially graduated the massage therapy program at La James! I lived for 8 months in their dorms. Wich was a huge blessing! So convenient to live directly above the school in a nice comfy apartment that quickly turned into my safe place and sanctuary! I loved the school, the owners and the teachers! Every morning they greet each student with a cheerful smile and greeting, they actually care about their students and will go above and beyond for us! I'm not the easiest of a person. I'm complex, I'm spiritual and I really love the way I felt welcomed and a part of something much bigger than myself. To feel accepted is huge! I love this school and recommend it to everyone!

What a wonderful relaxing atmosphere for a massage and facial!! I’ve been to LaJames several times and always get friendly, professional services. Very cozy and peaceful area the college has for the facials and massages. The staff is great to get clients in, even at the last minute !! It’s a nice and VERY affordable place for pedicures too. I just had a pedicure last week here . I now have happy toes and feet 🦶 ready for flip flops 🩴 🤩. It’s also a SUPER fun place to have birthday 🎂 🥳parties for kids! The decor is amazing and it’s a clean place. Stop in and give them a try. You won’t be disappointed.

I have been a client at La James College for many years. The atmosphere is very pleasant, extremely clean area, always greeted very warmly upon my entrance and seated almost immediately. The instructors and students are ALL GREAT also! Highly recommend visiting them or attending their classes!

LaJames is definitely a secret gem of Mason City. For students who want to be able to enjoy a "college" experience complete with an apartment option that is very reasonable for out of state students. Very fairly priced and a thorough complete educational platform. The services rendered by the students are very attractively priced and are teacher supervised. A great option for value driven consumers. Go and support this school! get that facial, have your nails done and get a haircut for the fraction of the price you find elsewhere.
