Don't go for a relaxer.
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.…
horrible. 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 individual. I am a female with a masculine appearance. I asked for a man's haircut and I was treated like a piece of garbage. I am so disappointed in the service and treatment I recieved. I went into Aveda with respect for the care they provide and I now have none. I would recommend this salon to no one and would encourage all lgbtq individuals boycott this establishment…
Nothing But Fantastic.
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.…
SUPER Facial!. 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!!)…
