Both my daughter’s hair turned out great! 11/14 years old. One got a cut and style and the other got highlights and a haircut. They both said their stylist were really nice and easy to talk too!

The Institute is a complete experience, the moment you enter the building is when it begins, from the aromatherapy in the air to the buzz of energy from the Students. The services are A+, top-notch under the careful guidance of the Aveda Educators. I always enjoy my visits for cuts and colors ♥️

I had such a great experience here. I just came in for a simple trim with layers for my long, straight hair. I got a full salon experience and I was treated like royalty. Lovely wash with product recommendations, but not shoved down my throat. Cut was great with a teacher checking at every step. Then I got a nice blowout on the house. I would definitely recommend over some of the other salons in the area which offer less for more $$$.
