I was pretty happy with my experience at Aveda. They easily booked me in and listened to what I wanted. Although it's students, there are plenty of teachers walking around checking their work to make sure everything is done well and safely. I love my new purple hair!

After six years, I returned to Aveda tonight (first time at this location) and was impressed by the professionalism, care, skill set, and kindness. From the staff at the front desk to the instructor to Amanda - they were showcasing the best of the best… Thank you! For almost 20 years I’ve been patronizing institutions like this (e.g., Aveda, Paul Mitchell) throughout the country depending on where I was living/working for my hair care. Today was one of the best experiences I’ve had! Hence, I highly recommend if you’re in the area and need some hair care and want to support those in training yet provide incredible experiences and delivery…)

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."

Editor's Description

Aveda Arts and Sciences Institutes focuses on a holistic approach to beauty. The fast-paced cosmetology program combines classroom theory with hands-on practice in salon and spa environments. The program covers everything from cutting and coloring to nail care and makeup application.

The esthiology program focuses on using skin care rituals and Aveda-trademarked flower and plant essences. In addition, students train in facials, waxing, makeup application, business development, and wellness knowledge for retail purposes.

Alumnus Hans says, "When I chose AVEDA it was because of the mission, the dedication to the environment and beauty through technique and natural products. Everything I've put into this program was given back to me tenfold. When I started, I had no idea how to even blow dry hair. Now I'm an accomplished student with a set of skills for a bright career."

Aveda helps with job placement after graduation through their wide-ranging network of high-end salons and spas nationwide, and they even spotlight rockstars on their website.
