I went as a model for a relaxer. I wanted to check their product and see if getting my hair done at an institute would be a good fit for me. I had a great personal experience with the people there, the prices are good and it didn't took as long as I thought.
BUT MY HAIR ISNT STRAIGHT. I have fine, curly and frizzy hair. I've had japanese straightening and permanent straightening treatments done before so I was expecting a similar outcome. Maybe is the product or the procedure but after all I am still curly. I try contacting the girl that did my hair to find alternatives but haven't heard from her.
Even though the people were nice I think I will stick with my regular hair place because the results are just not there.

I have just gotten home from one of the most homophobic and disrespetful experiences I have had in my life, which was at the Aveda Institute salon. I was seen by a student named Remy. My experience with her was completely unsatisfactory to say the least. She said nothing to me almost the entire time she worked with me. She walked away from me without saying a word twice and left me sitting in the chair wondering where she had gone. The haircut I recieved was not what I had described at all and when I asked her to adjust some things she walked away and got her teacher. The woman, whose name I can't recall, treated me equally as disregarding. She cut my hair extremely short while speaking to me in a disrespectful and mocking tone. I was offered none of the services that are provided with a haircut, in fact they were never even mentioned to me. I walked away from that experience almost in tears and quite frankly shocked at how completely homophobic that situation was. I am a genderqueer i

I've been here a couple of times now and I will keep going back.
Quality does change with each student, especially dependent on how long they've been training, but I've always had an above par experience with each dresser.
I'm male and only go in for cuts; they always get it right and I've even let them experiement a bit (one dresser asked if she could go a bit "funky" with the cut) and I liked what she did so much that it's my normal request now.
Always polite, always friendly, those students have the best attitudes.
NOTE: The students do not get money for the cuts! They only make tips, the actual charge for the cut goes to the institute. Because of this, my tip always equals the amount of they charge for the cut because it just doesn't seem fair to me that they aren't earning that money for the work.

Extremely positive experience in every respect! My daughter treated me to my FIRST facial on my 50th birthday. What a lovely surprise for a mother/daughter day out! The girls were very efficient and comforting. Afterward, I felt as tho I had received a face lift! :)......the foot soak was such a soothing touch. Thank you AVEDA.....(I'm almost 51---time to return!!)

I have gone several times and each time have been very satisfied with the foils I have had. I am pretty fussy and I like three colors. Never a problem. As they are students they are a little slow. So bring a book.

I've never had a bad experience here and it's a great bargain considering the service. The best haircuts I've had over the last ten years has been here and I've always been treated as if I was their best customer. It's also a great way to test out the Aveda line of products. I've gone in just for a haircut, and ended up having mini-massages, make-up applied and so on just so the students can get more practice in. That makes for a enjoyable time and I always leave feeling like I did something special for myself.
Pros: Pampered, students are well supervised, great atmosphere
Cons: Parking can be challenging

The first time I was here for a hair cut n color the supervisor took a look at my hair n literally started screaming at me that theres no way the color will take...Jeez relax lady !!1 She continued with erh loud n extremely rude "opinion"....that the poor girl who was working on my hair kept apologizing after she left.
I went back after many months to gv it a 2nd chance and this time the trainee was awful...after almost 3 hrs she colored my hair unevenly n when the supervisor told her to redo it..sh erefused and said I was done!!1
NEVER COMING BACK...its well worth your time and money to go someplace else where u get quality for ur money.
Pros: cheap but not even worth it
Cons: bad service n attitude.
