Always have a good experience at the Aveda school (Have only been for facials ). It’s just relaxing enough to feel like a treat and the price is excellent for services received. It’s not a full -on spa experience but for the price, I’m fine with that. I wish there didn’t have to be a sales’ pitch at the end for products but I never feel pressure to buy either so I appreciate that.

Always a good experience, and a great haircut. Always discuss haircut, and then facilitator/supervisor gives guidance as to how to tackle that style.

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."
