Victoria did a wonderful job. She was pleasant. When washing my hair she got ALL the color out,which is rare and gave a great head massage. Unfortunately she will not be there for my next appointment.

Jordan did a fabulous job! I have a short haircut requiring barber skills. He went above and beyond to ensure my cut was what I wanted! Even as far as getting the new barber instructor to guide him with new techniques! Brandon the barber is going to be a valuable asset for the barber students! A perfectionist with tons of skill. A great experience!!!

No instructor oversaw what the manicurist. I understood that these were students being evaluated but there was no guidance or oversight. As a paid customer this was the worst manicure I’ve ever received in my entire life. Do NOT go here!

I had my haircut today by Jordan W. She did an awesome job and love it! I hadn’t had a haircut in over a year and have been a loyal Aveda institute customer for over 10 years. But what made this visit so special was Jordan. She was super nice, warm, kind, really listened to me and her educators. She really took her time and know she will do great things after she graduates. I’ve been getting layers in my long straight fine hair for years and I took her recommendation for a one length cut and her educator agreed. My hair looks much better and fuller without the layers. I now know what to ask for going forward thanks to her. Her customer services skills are awesome. Like I said I’ve been a loyal customer for years but this is definitely one student I will remember for years to come. I love my haircut as does my husband.

I get my hair done and facials on a regular basis. nothing but good experiences :) and i love the products yesterday I tried body scrub with Janet. amazing!

Keep in mind that this is a beauty school and the students are still learning. You can choose to have a junior level or senior level hair stylist. For my visit, I saw a senior level student named Chloe for a simple haircut. It cost me $16 for a shampoo, cut, and blow-dry which is a deal considering they only use premium quality Aveda products. I was happy with the way my hair looked and felt. After my service, the stylist escorts you to the front to checkout. Before they bring you to the register, they have to show you and recommend the products that they used on your hair during your appointment and they put them into a basket to take to the register. You are not obligated to purchase the products so if you do not wish to buy them you can politely decline. Everyone was really nice at Aveda Institute and I enjoyed my visit from start to finish.

Lauren was amazing and was super sweet. I had partial highlights done and Im very happy with the outcome!!

Best experience for a facial!!!! So very relaxing 😌. Great service great staff and affordable prices. My daughter and I had a lovely time getting pampered. thank you so much.

Had 2 delightful students, Sadie gave me an exquisite facial and a leg wax. Christina gave me a cute haircut. Both of those ladies are going to be very good at their profession when they graduate. Im definitely returning to the Aveda Institute again!!!

Brooke was very professional, kind, & very personable while cutting, blow drying, & styling my hair. I’m very pleased with my new look. I would highly recommend Aveda institute for your next spa day.

I had a facial at Aveda. The rooms are nicely laid out. The employee doing my facial did a great job. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

My highlights were absolutely amazing! Veronica is extremely thorough and very helpful when answering questions I might have. While sometimes my appointment time is longer than expected, Veronica is great about communicating where we are in the process and makes each visit a pleasant experience.

It was a nightmare, actually still is. The girl who cut and styled my hair had no minimal idea how to make a pixie and to make a simple blower dry. I still don’t know how to style the super short hair I was left even when I showed pictures of the style I always have and wanted. She also used too much products on my hair and I looked like a homeless person. I had to arrive home to wash it again and try to make it work. Still not working!

My service was provided by Kaylyn - a soon to be graduated from Aveda,She was cheerful, meticulous in he work.Congratulations to a job well done. Linda Morris

I’v had a good experience each time I’ve gone to Aveda. The students are knowledgeable and professional under the guidance of their instructors. Good value for the money and Aveda products!

Went in for a blonding and cut with the two photos attached and Lisa freaking NAILED it!! I HIGHLY recommend the Aveda Institute. I moved to Tampa in February 2020 and every time I’ve left a salon, I’ve been unhappy with my hair and have always paid over $200 for it. I left Aveda with all my expectations exceed and it cost under $100. Definitely book and appointment!Just remember that these are STUDENTS. So it’s going to take them longer than it would a salon. Be patient with them and go in knowing that they are learning. But you will leave happy!!!

Ive been to many Aveda Institutes to have services done with very good luck. However, my recent visit was disappointing. The instructor was very unfriendly and abandoned the student that was doing my color. As a result, I did not get what I asked for at all. While she did a good job, it was not correct. I am going in for a redo. However, I worry...will the next student have some backup? That instructor needs instructing.

Victoria Piatt was my stylist and she was absolutely amazing! I have never had such a great job done with my highlights. She graduates in November, so request an appointment with her ASAP!

I have never been impressed as I have been at Aveda Institute. From the minute you walk in to the time you leave, you feel such a wonderful experience. The facility is Very clean, everyone if friendly and professional. I have been there 3 times and will continue to go there. Thank you Aveda for such a wonderful experience!

Received a couple of massages to try it out. The service is just ok. These are students learning but they need to maybe let them practice on each other before the public. It’s almost like they don’t really know where knots are or muscles. Also , please stop trying to sell products at the end it’s very uncomfortable, maybe try a new approach.

What an amazing environment to see your stylists excited to begin their careers. Even more fantastic was bringing life back to my 2 year covid ignored hair. Upon returning home, my 15 year old complimented my hair and again yesterday asked if she could go and get the same thing done to her hair. Wow!Thank you Victoria Pecora for the amazing cut (on long curly hair-no easy task) to provide body to my hair and the color correction that makes me feel 20 years younger.Victoria Pecora, you have an amazing future ahead of you!

I love everything about Aveda and the school is no different. From the staff to the students and the services, everything is top notch

Very reluctant to have anyone touch my hair, too many disasters in the past. However, my hairdresser, Veronica... took her time to find out and transform my experience into a postive situation. Couldnt be happier with the price,... my only uncomfortable part was , during check out.... The gentleman that was handling my transaction was unprofessional and rude,... I chose some products that they used but not all...when I eliminated some items in my cart, he was aggressive and copped an attitude. Enough to make me not want to go back there. Although, I will give it another chance,.... I recommend allowing additional time for your experience. My appointment was for 2 Oclock... I left close to 7:30 pm.

Professional, nice, very sweet and great service! I have been to another Aveda and this place beats them for their staff, and education hands down! Great people! Great service! Great prices!

Ella was AMAZING!! Avenda facials have been my go to for the past several months. They are excellent quality and allow the men and women to gain experience. 10/10 would recommend!

The student gave me an excellent, professional facial that I have paid up to six times the price! I love that I cam come to the Aveda institute and get the same quality and experience as a salon without the high price. They even have a nice, atmospheric spa on the premises, unlike other beauty schools.

I go here several times a year and each time I go the stylist are professional and very friendly. I also get a quality salon look at a fraction of the cost. Terra did a wonderful job on my shampoo and style my hair feels so healthy. Monday did my hair previously and gave me great long layers. This will always be my go to hair care center

Veronica was amazing. She understood what I wanted even though I didn’t know the technical terms for what look I wanted and ever told me how to ask for it in the future so I will get the look I want every time!

I came in for a highlight but had some remnants of blue and purple pigmented conditioner on my hair. I talked with them about my concerns and they determined that they also had concerns and a strand test was needed. Thank goodness, because my strand test turned mint green! Instead of risking my highlights, they gave me their professional opinion and suggested a trim, a botanical treatment, and we finished with a blowout. Kinga did an amazing job on my hair! I took a no-makeup selfie when I got home and felt so confident with how my hair looked, even though it wasn’t what I went on for. I appreciated their professionalism and am glad they were honest with me so I left satisfied. I will 100% return!

The staff and students are very professional and nice. The student that cut my hair did a good job. I enjoyed talking with her and she didn’t mind all my questions about her life, the training she is going through, etc... They recommended products that I should purchase but applied no pressure for me to buy. They actually took my basket away thinking I didn’t want anything and I had to grab it back to get the two items I did want.The only bad thing was I didn’t even think to tip! My bad....I plan to make it up to the student when I go back to get my hair colored!Great prices, great job!

I had a standing appointment and they call the morning of and advise the student was out and would I like a massage instead of my 90 massage. Next availability was October. Not going back.

I am very pleased with my experiences here. Ive been here twice, both times for a facial. This time, they had a deal for a 60-minute facial for $20.21. You really cannot beat that price, and I like Aveda products. I believe right now with COVID-19 protocols, you are required to have an appointment and cant just walk in. I was greeted at the door by an employee and check-in was easy.Emma handled my facial and she was fantastic! She was very friendly and answered all of my questions patiently. I went in for a relaxing experience and thats certainly what I got. I upgraded with a plant peel for an additional $10 and the entire time I couldnt help thinking what a treat this was. Afterward, youre given an opportunity to speak with an instructor to provide feedback on the student and then youre taken to the retail area to check out. Thankfully, Emma wasnt pushy at all and just let me know which products she recommends for me. I will definitely come back here again for another facial and will also check out their other services.

Joslyn highlighted my hair & I love it! She was so sweet & friendly. The place is lively & it seemed that everyone was friendly & always smiled.

This was a redo. Student did way too many foils for redo. My hair is pretty damagedHaircut uneven and I even told the student but she still couldn’t correct it. I really only needed a few foils on top of my head to accomplish why I wanted a redo. Instead I’m way over processed and too blonde.

I went to get an eyelash tint and the girl who did my service Sarah was so nice and sweet she and talked me through it and did a great job!

Whatever you are expecting, the discount is not worth the results. This is the first time Ive cried about my hair in a long time, and I am writing my review because they just emailed me about my monthly followupUpon entering, the space is lovely, the people are friendly, and they are very serious about social distancing. That is why I gave it two stars instead of one. They also took me as a walk in, which is very convenientThis was with Michaela. She is very nice, but I had an off feeling when we were on the way to wash my hair. This is not meant to be mean or inflammatory, but as she walked in front of me to lead me to the sink, I saw her hair was very fried blonde and her tracks from her extensions were very very visible. I was a little worried, but I know the service industry is taxing and I know if I spent all day in a hair or nail salon, Id just want to go home, not make sure my hair and nails are also maintained.I showed the student what I wanted. It was a master student, not an instructor. My hair has not been cut for almost 3 years. It is close to virgin, no heat, no bye, no bleach for three years. It was to just past the middle of my back. All I wanted were long layers to take the weight off and CURTAIN BANGS with some shorter middle pieces, near the middle of the .forehead. I had about 5 pictures.I have a cowlick, I told her this. Thats why I wanted them to be curtain with only shorter pieces in the middle, so my cowlick stays weighed down still with the longer lengths on the sides. She cut them. Straight. Across. Then when I tried to explain what tapering and frace framing pieces are to try and salvage it, she cut the face framing pieces, blunt, right above my jaw. I told her to stop in the middle of it and get an instructor. Ive never had the courage to do that before, and Ive had some bad cuts, but this was horrendous.The instructor then proceeded to gather her and about 3 other students to explain curtain bangs and how she could try to turn them into curtain bangs, aka fixing what she could, but it wouldnt be right. I felt like a test dummy for all these girls, and I was so embarrassed because it looked so bad and they were all being so casual about it like it was funny. I wanted to cry. My cowlick was sticking straight up and I had to try to explain, again, how to blowdry it forward using overdirection. It was still standing at a 45° angle.The original instructor didnt approve the cut when I left, and the instructor that fixed it didnt talk to her or me after, and leftWhen I got home I realized the layers were strangely v shaped, and very uneven, my left side is much shorter than my right. I tapered and razored the side pieces myself, to make them as soft and blended as possible, but I havent touched the length. Im too scared to. And Im too scared to ever let anyone touch my hair again.Dont listen to the good reviews, please. Please. I wish I read more of the negative ones before I went.The money isnt worth the pain and embarrassment. Please weigh the money you would save versus the very real chance that you will be unconfident in yourself for as long as it takes to grow your hair again.Aveda, please dont contact me. This is my honest review. I dont want compensation, I dont want a free service, I dont want to talk to anyone else.. I just want to forget this ever happened and look forward to the day I dont have to wear a headband. I didnt mean to confirm the appointment on the 22nd, I dont want it please. I will try to post pictures as reference

I found it very distracting having the door open to the massage room. There was a lot of hallway noise. However the massage itself was excellent. Michelle did a wonderful job. Well they are also received a haircut from Mia. She did a good job as well. I’m very pleased with the services I received.

Truly Outstanding Experience! I love the environment and education: the people are warm and friendly. The educators: Manuel and Mike are professional, creative and remarkable. Manuel was the Intro educator and Mike for the Tape-In Hair Extensions Certification Course. I highly recommend the Aveda Institute Tampa. I feel I have received and believe the school offers a remarkable educational opportunity to learn about Aveda, Cosmetology and Hair Extensions. Its a great place to be!

Awesome. Facial and hair done Both experiences were great.Thank you

Britney C. was great. She not only did the cut per my specifications but she also included a hair conditioning, blow dry and curls while we were waiting for the trainer to come do the bangs. The trainer did not come in time to do the bangs so Britney did them herself and she did a good job. She made my hair look like a beautiful angel. Definitely worth $18.

Had Taylor do an upper arm wax. She was amazing, efficient and extremely sweet throughout the process.

Love how my hair turned out. My only complaint is that one of the educators told my student the wrong formula: the use 20volume with clay bleach. So we wasted 2 hours waiting for my hair to lift before a different educator came by and told her that she had to use 30 or 40 volume with clay. She corrected with the different volume and it took 10 minutes. So that was a bit frustrating, but the overall result my student was able to achieve is phenomenal. She did a great job even with the hurdles.

I have had numerous messages, facials and pedicures at the Aveda Institute in and they all have been wonderful! The cost is so inexpensive and I have always had an amazing experience!!

I enjoy going to the Aveda Institute. However, you should know up front that students are doing your hair and sometimes it shows. First let me say, I love Aveda products and everyone at the institute is very welcoming. I also enjoy the price of the service you receive bc it’s students. All that being said plan on being there for a long time. My longest visit was around 4 hours for a color touch up on my roots. Hair cuts usually take 2.5 hours but I do have a lot of hair but still a very long time. Also, on a few occasions I have left with dye still in my hair or just hair that’s still damp after my blowout. Yet I will continue going bc I like and I’m always happy with the way my hair looks once I leave.

Great place to spend time with students. The products here are amazing. Excellent customer experience, every time.

I return often because of all the above. The team was also very thoughtful to don masks when I asked!

So today I had an appointment with the wonderful Corina and I’m so glad that I did. I have 4c virgin natural hair and she made going blonde so fun and comfortable. I dmed her on Instagram with the style and color I wanted and she did amazing I’m so happy with how it turned out and she did some finger coils and she did amazing everyone needs to go get there hair done by Corinna. She recommended me some products and I left with some that I am very excited to try out . Definitely will be coming back to her .

IF YOURE CONSIDERING THIS SCHOOL, RUN.My experience is typed up in the attached photo.Worst decision I’ve ever made. BEWARE.

Patricia was very good to work with. She was confident and creative and listened to my needs. Love my highlight. Thank you Patricia!

The customer service was good and quick during the appointment! However when I got home, upon further looking at my hair, my spouse and I noticed that it was very uneven in the back and choppy. When put back in a ponytail, its even more prominent.

Havent had a bad service yet...I have had my hair washed, cut, curled, highlighted and the roots touched up. It does take some time, so prepare for that. These are students working magic and they all get their work double checked by the instructors.

I had a wonderful experience! I am so pleased with my haircut and the services that went with it! Thank you!

I had a appointment for a massage and when I got there they did not have my appointment very disappointed

My services were great. My stylist, Olbi, went above and beyond to help me with my color correction. Unfortunately the only issues I had were the instructors. When asking a question about cutting my heavy, thick hair, the instructor came over took over the hair cut and removing length and angle I wanted in my cut. In our discussions with her we hadn’t discussed the cut yet so that was disappointing but it’ll grow out in a week or two and I’ll be fine. More importantly my color is gorgeous. Thank you Olbi!! 🖤My boyfriend had services at the same time an d unfortunately his experience was subpar. He asked for a cut and to be colored pastel purple. Pastels are hard. But after several bleachings and just toner his hair is still yellow with purple roots. This literally went on from 9:45 to 7pm. He did leave at one point to eat since this was not supposed to be an all day activity and no one told him that possibility. I feel with his there should have been better communication and actually discussed if this wasn’t possible after the 2nd attempt. It’s ok to say this isn’t possible since they’re students, people are understanding, but wasting all day for a total of 4-5 processes with no end result is not right.

Had an amazing experience with Dominica. She was very attentive, professional and my hair turned out exactly the way I suggested to her the look I was wishing to achieve.

Jordan did an amazing job on my hair 🤩

Dominica, a graduating student, did a great job. Exactly, what I wanted & it worked out great. TY, good luck.

I have used the Aveda institute off and on and most recently, during the pandemic. I get a trim so I have a hard time paying a ton of money to my regular hairdresser for that so I go to the institute and Ive never had a disappointing cut yet. I dont know if I would go in if I were doing anything drastic but for a trim, I wont go anywhere else.

Have been going here about a year for root touch up and hair trims. I have long hair so it’s fairly cut and dried (so to speak). I also use their waxing services and buy my hair care products. Have always been satisfied and really appreciate their attention towards CoVid protocols.

Go help these students learn.

Just had my hair did. Roxy did a great job. Lovely young lady and very enthusiastic about coloring hair lol. Keep it up and youll have a nice future!!

Perfect experience ! Hair color retouch and hair cut.

Angelina was very good and gave mew a great haircut! very pleased!

They provided a relaxing and safe experience. My stylist, Kayla, did a terrific cut. Looking forward to returning!

I have had two appointments with Allyssa R.She has gone above and beyond.Taking care of me.What a great place with great people. So gladTo have stumbled upon this nice business and especially Allyssa R. ♥️ Thank you ♥️

Ella was awesome and very knowledgeable. I will be making future appointments with her.

My hair is starting to come back after chemo treatment, and it has come in very dark. I wanted my hair lightened, and the professional hairdresser who did it about 6 weeks before made a mess of it....brassy red instead of blonde. I thought that Id try the Aveda institute since the instructors know what they are doing. Olbi did my hair, and there were 2 instructors who worked with him and me. Long story short, they fixed my hair, and I am pretty much back to blonde. The only reasons I am docking one star are because it took six hours and the place was freezing. Olbi is great, and Ive already made a return appt. Next time, though, I wont have foils as I cant take the long wait.

Laura was very good. She was efficient, friendly and skilled. I have been to the salon so many times and I can tell who has true passion and is willing to go the extra mile which is very important to be successful in any career. Laura definitely has these qualities. I had a hair cut and highlight service with her and I was very pleased with the experience!

Totally a positive experience. Haley T was professional and thorough.

Everyone is very friendly. Lexi Was so nice.

Everyone was so helpful and very nice. Mellissa was so nice and helpful and Lexi was just awesome ! They both were great.

Pretty disappointed……my daughter has biracial hair and it’s sad that even the instructors didn’t even know how to comb her hair therefore they can’t possibly teach the students. It’s pretty standard teaching at a all time low sadly.

Great place to work. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Students are showing steller hair transformations.

Amazing haircut and super friendly people.Thanks Veronica!

Very nice! Open space, everyones spaced out, chairs are cleaned after each client, students are kind and professional! Products are lovely, nicely displayed and organized.

I was a customer here since 2004. I generally always had very good experiences until November 2020. I’m the type of person that would let one bad experience go but the way that this was handled afterwords was totally unacceptable and just showed me that they don’t care about customers. Never mind one who has been going there for as long as I have. In summary I booked a half head of foils and a haircut. The educator gave The student the wrong formula for the highlights portion of the foils, I was getting low lights on also. At no time between the period of 9 AM and 4 PM did an educator ever come over to our chair to see what was happening and why I was sitting there for so long. I asked the student to go get an educator when she realize the formula was wrong, but the educator would not come over they said they were too busy. The student then ended up rushing through the haircut and I discovered later at home that the cut was pretty bad. I had to spend money at another salon to get it fixed. I did try to follow up with the Clearwater location and speak to the salon manager about it but every time I would call I was told they were too busy to speak with me. Yes literally told they were too busy. I was in their salon for six hours on a Saturday nobody realizes that took a lot out of my day and nobody could take five minutes to speak with me. I did finally post some thing on their Facebook page Which was then removed less than 10 minutes later. I did receive a call back then but unfortunately I was busy but when I tried to return the call I was given the same story that they were all too busy to speak with me. Nobody at the salon I was concerned about this incident which tells me that they didn’t care if they lost a customer who had been going there for 17 years. I would like to keep buying the products because I really like them but I will no longer have any services done

This used to be a Great placeI went there fomany years it was awesomeThe past two years have been awful.Front desk manager is terrible and has no peopke skills.The instructors dont do anything...students go unsupervised and poor quality.Its a shame that this place is Sinking.They should get rid of the nasty little front desk manager, hire qualified instructors and pray they can save this placeTil that happens i could never return there again. The bathrooms are filthy and the entire place smells badBeware

Im not sure what has changed, but the prices have gone up while the quality has gone down. Ive been coming to Aveda since 2013, and Ive always trusted their expertise with all of my hair transformations, but over the past year I had two really poor experiences. After this last visit, I do not think I will be returning.I just want to start this off by saying that the students and staff that I worked with were really polite and friendly, and I know they worked hard and I truly appreciate that.I had scheduled a 9:30AM appointment for a full retouch on my faded balayaged hair. I explained I wanted a natural, dimensional, look as opposed to the traditional color-melt starkness. The student went ahead an put in a full head of highlights, but then we noticed my hair was having a really bizarre reaction to their products (to absolutely no fault of their own; I went to a different stylist six months ago and we believe she used metals in my hair dye) and my ends and random parts of my mid-shafts green. We ended up enlightening and toning my ends, and later enlightening and covering the green mids with red color. The students and instructors worked really hard to remedy the green out and I finally left the salon at 7:45PM when it was all said and done.The only reason Im writing this review is because fundamentally my hair is not at all what I asked for. For $144 and all the trouble we all went through, Im honestly disappointed. I asked for natural balayage and I left with glaring tiger-stripe highlights on the side of my head. (This was not a result of their color-correcting against the green, but rather the highlighting of the first student I was working with).The team did an excellent job with fixing my ends (They came out beautiful!) but I really wish they would have taken the extra time to make the red dye they used to counter-act the greenness in my mids actually blend as opposed to leaving me with random blobs of red throughout my hair.I cannot stress enough how the teams problem-solving and positive attitude really was incredible - I even gave my student a hug after it was all said and done.Im a young professional. I really wish they wouldnt have let me walked out of there looking like an early 2000s tween. Lesson finally learned.

This is the second time I have been to Aveda Institute. Courtney W. was my stylist. My hair is super thick, but she did an absolutely amazing job!!! She was not afraid to ask her instructor questions to ensure a fabulous outcome. I love and appreciate the time she took. If anyone reads this and are thinking about trying it out, I highly recommend Aveda! Two haircuts and both way better than most haircuts Ive ever gotten elsewhere. Thank you so much!

This was my first time at this salon and the student I had did an amazing job she was very friendly and had great communication I highly recommend the student Monday😁

1 hr and 20 min is absurd for a men’s haircut. Student K. Was slow as a snail and appeared to have no idea what she was doing. Top it off with a cut “they” wanted to give and not what I asked for.I’ll never be back nor will I ever recommend Arvada to anyone.

I drive 3 hours to come here and get my hair highlighted. This visit Dio did my hair it took 8 hours but my hair is thick and long and I knew what to expect. I highly recommend everyone to come here but make sure you come with reasonable expectations for time. They do an excellent job and take their time to make sure you are beyond happy when you leave. Ive never been disappointed which is why I am a loyal customer.

Got my hair done today by Jamie and I could not be happier, went in not knowing what to expect and came out absolutely in love with what Jamie did with my hair. Thank you so much Jamie!!

I had an appointment with Jackelyn and she was absolutely AMAZING!!! From the first minute she walked up to me she was nothing but friendly and professional. I went in kind of having an idea of what I wanted but was also completely open to any ideas she had as well. She did such a great job!!! I haven’t been this happy with my hair for over 10 years thank you Jackelyn and I can’t wait to see you again next month!! (Of course I had to schedule another appointment with her before she graduates!!) Thanks again!!!

Brittany Cardinals did a Fabulous job on my hair. How long are in body curly horse frizzy hair and she gave me a haircut beautiful highlights and style and blow dry. Very professional I was impressed . I’m scheduling my new appointment today.

I had by far one of the best experiences today at Aveda in Clearwater. It was my first time there. And from the moment I stepped up to the door to the moment I walked out, everyone was super nice and so professional. My stylist today was Sierra and she did an amazing job with my hair. I cannot wait to go back. It was an amazing experience!

Worst place I’ve ever been to, over 5 hours for highlights with a master level stylist. Completely unacceptable, Never coming back or suggesting this place to anyone ever..... didn’t even offer a discount just tried to push products...

Lean Anna is amazing! I have been to her several times for haircuts and highlights and my hair always looks fabulous when she is finished with it. Highly recommend going to her!

My first facial was amazing from start to finish I love the lil foot massage at the beginning

I am always impressed with the way these students carry themselves. I have had students who have told me I am their first client to Master Students, and have not been disappointed yet. Savannah was my student yesterday and she was great !!!

Bethany did an amazing job turning me into a mermaid! Love it!

The most rewarding experience ever.

I had my hair styled. Service is always amazing. Everyone is so friendly, definitely recommend going!

Its very clean and professional the students and staff are the best.However ladies just know these are students and iam not so sure the staff have actual salon knowledge or if they where offered a job there after they graduated. They all have good intentions but they piece meal your hair together i have been sent home three times unsatisfied. Now i need to pay top dollar to undo the mess theyve done to my hair. I dont want to go back there agsinSorry folks have to be honest.One ladt thing we go to students to get cheaper prices. However ladies this is what teally happens. So they talk you into spending so much more both at the chair then i was told they have to try before you leave to buy these horrendous expensive bottles or their shampoo then as if thats not enough fot you never to come back you have to drive a few miles in this crazy highway 19 to find an atm to then leave the student a tip becausr you cant use credit or debit card. So ask yourself three or four visits to them holidays destroyed you spend with tips spprox 250.00 or one trip to a true pro your gorgeous your hsppy one price one trip for 160.00 yoi choose.

Facial was great and so was the students for hair and facial. Always remember that they are students learning a craft. I just wish Aveda would not answer the phone with Its a great day at Aveda. I find that way of answering the phone highly annoying. I have worked for fortune 500 companies and they dont answer the phone that way. Otherwise,. Great products and I had great students Laura was gentle and explained everything during my facial. Lupe goes the extra mile. She did a great job with color.

My facial was a not what I was expecting! Can you imagine no steam, no black-head extractions, no mask, no toner, no facial sunscreen! But remember that they are not professionals! They will use the Aveda products to cleanse the face, used an exfoliation, eye cream and moisturizer. Nothing was left on for prolong time. In the past, besides the facials they also give upper-shoulder, neck and scalp massage....not today! They are all different, depending on your student...for $35 for 60 minutes its worth it just for the self-care❤

I got a facial at the Clearwater location by Amanda and she was amazing. The front desk staff are also pleasant and always ready to help. I definitely plan on being a repeat customer for more facials. My one critique is the noise that goes on outside the rooms. There is always a lot of chatter and movement by (Im assuming) the staff RIGHT outside the doors of the spa rooms towards the back. It made it hard for me to fully relax and there were some moments where I could barely hear the relaxing music over the speakers. I felt bad that Amanda had to apologize for the noise, because it wasnt her doing. I would definitely recommend this location for low cost facials to my friends and family if there was a more quiet, relaxed atmosphere. That is the only thing missing!

This was my first time at Aveda and let me tell you I was so impressed!!! I read the reviews before coming so I was thinking you get what you pay for type thing. But wrong!!! Anne was amazing. She really took her time and made sure everything was perfect. The students have an instructor they have to report to before starting service and after to insure everything is going smoothly. I have very thick long hair so it’s hard to find someone good but I did with Anne she was so amazing. I’m so thankful for this place and for her.

Love my highlights and cut!

Had my hair highlighted. The color was perfect. My beautician was friendly and proficient. The manager had followed up with me immediately after my appointment. I was overcharged. The manager offered the lower price at another visit. The decor and building are beautiful and CLEAN!!
