Forget the typical salon experience. My appointment with London at the Aveda Beauty School in Austin was like stumbling upon a hidden gem where artistry meets genuine passion. From the moment I sat in their chair, it was clear this wasn't just a student practicing; it was a burgeoning talent ready to bloom. Beyond the technical prowess, London has a warm and engaging personality that makes the entire experience a joy. They're the kind of stylist you feel comfortable chatting with, but who also knows when to let you relax and enjoy the pampering. If you're looking for a stylist in Austin who offers a fresh perspective, genuine talent, and a truly personalized experience, seek out London at the Aveda Beauty School. You'll be supporting an incredibly promising artist, and you'll walk away with hair that turns heads (in the best way possible). This wasn't just a haircut; it was a creative collaboration, and I can't wait for my next appointment. Five stars doesn't feel like enough! ✨✂️🌿 @giacomoforbes @FredericFekkai @JoseEber-London is going to do amazing things, go see her!

Dylan and Christy were absolutely fantastic! I just cannot express enough how much fun I had having my hair done here. I came in with hair all the way down the middle of my back and I left with an adorable 60's pixie cut! They were so attentive, kind and knowledgeable, and I could tell Dylan really wanted to learn! It was so rewarding providing someone the experience to gain knowledge off of just having my hair cut! And for such a reasonable price! 10/10 reccomend. I will be back! :)

What They Say About Us

"My favorite part about the AVEDA Institute is the level of growth I have experienced. This process began from day one with the specialized, individual attention I received from my educators. This attention has continued and I feel very comfortable being able to express myself in ways I didn't think possible. Now I'm very outgoing and have the confidence to perform all techniques I've learned. So far this career is a really great journey and I enjoy being challenged at the AVEDA Institute, which has truly encouraged me to be the best "me" I can be."
