5 stars to my technician. The Institute - meh. My technician was great, instructors were absent except to ‘sign off’ on the students’ work. My procedure was a first for my tech, a peer helped her out with advice and information. The process took quite a while and the instructor did not come near - not even once - to check the work being done or to see if my tech had questions or needed support. Her peer should receive payment for her work assisting and advising. The instructor signed off without checking the finished product, and then gave a bare glance to the work done - after she had already signed off. I think if someone is leaving the institute with skills it’s because they are driven to learn and teaching themselves, and relying on peers. The institute keeps the money you pay for your service, even though the students are required to practice and have paid a fee to learn/practice. If you tip at the register, i heard that the tech doesn’t always get it, so consider tipping your tech directly.

I was absolutely satisfied with my haircut today. Felicity was professional pleasant and did a great job. I hadn't had a haircut for five years, it was just above the waist and I had it layered to just below the shoulders. She did a fantastic job layering it. She is a natural and will be a fantastic hairdresser when she graduates. I will go back!!

Update: 06/15/24. Congrats Shania on graduating! Your going to do amazing out in the hair world. Always enjoy what you do. Thank you for doing my hair! I have been going to Aveda Institute for about 10 years for hair cuts, eyebrow waxes, hair wash. Past few months I've been having plumbing issues so I go there to get my hair washed, a service I didn't know they had, it has been exceptionally helpful. The salon is always clean. I have never seen it dirty not even the bathroom. It's a teaching school so it's prices are cheap but I've never had a bad experience, the instructors always check after they are done. They offer complimentary tea and water and offer head and hand massages. Free of charge. Not a lot of parking ... but that's not their fault. Shouts outs to a few of the crew. Amelia and Kelley have both been washing my hair the past few months, both are professional, efficient and personable. When I call to book an appointment I request one of them. Thank you both for always getting me out quick, I'm always in a hurry and feel bad because I don't want them feeling rushed, but I appreciate you guys. Frank and Sabrina, you guys are always awesome and always good to see you! Overall, 5 stars!
