Awaken:Aveda Salon + Spa

Howdy folks! I have to share what a gem it is to have an AVEDA in a small town ~ and not just a salon but a SPA rare in case you’re unaware! I walked into “class” and “tranquility”, but of course: It’s AVEDA! Let me share my “Experience: Which is what, yes, I’ll say it again: AVEDA - where the products and service is about the “experience”! Winston, a Master stylist, greeted me warmly at the front desk next to Giovanni and used my first name! I’ve also been grateful to have Shun care for me these last few months in 2023! She’s extremely knowledgeable and has a great touch! We began walking through the spa and the wonderful smells surrounding me …. Ahhh do I love the smells of AVEDA! I was brought an AVEDA tea while Winston assessed my hair and which journey we’d take together! We chose a layered cut to bring more style to accentuate my face and a blowout to keep the look and bring about softness to the touch. Now to the shampoo room with wide reclining chairs to fall asleep in while your head is massaged with the AVEDA mint scalp revitalizing shampoo … mmmmmhhh! My head is still tingling as I enjoy my iced cold brew at a local coffee shop! Thank you AVEDA and thank you Winston and Shun! See you again soon! Ta Ta!

My boyfriend purchased a massage for me and I was really looking forward to it! During the consultation I stated my main goal was to relax and and my shoulders were sore. He didn’t really focus on my shoulders at all and it seemed as if he was trying to do the things a chiropractor does. I have been having low back pain ever since I had the massage. It was the worst experience I have ever had. This made me question as to how trained he was.Service: Massage

Fine for haircuts, but avoid for colour - use Ulta or some other salon that can do basic color jobs. I scheduled appointments for myself and my two teens: one haircut, and two haircuts/trims and color jobs. The first color job was supposed to be solid pink, but it came out like a home-dye job gone wrong and looks like it was simply bleached orange with a tiny bit of pink haphazardly at the roots. The second color job was supposed to be black with bright red ends, but the ends turned out a faded tulip. The stylist also completely forgot to do the trim. The lone haircut was great and handled by a different stylist than the first two. This stylist was actually friendly, communicative, solicited feedback, and remembered to offer the extra included services, as expected. We usually have our hair cut at this salon, but I usually color my hair myself. We're in the process of moving, and I've recently thrown out all of my old dyes, so I figured we'd have someone else do it this time. Big mistake. I often color my own in multiple bright colours and patterns, and I've never had a mishap like the failed pink job. Will either have our hair fixed at Ulta or do it myself. I have had the same black/red done at Ulta before w/o issue, along with black and silver for one of the kids, so I'm sure they can handle a solid pink.Service: Haircut

Omg!!! I had Jeremiah for a massage, and 10/10 would recommend! He’s professional and he did not cause any pain during the massage! I will continue to make appointments!

I've been here a few times and the staff are all really great. I saw Winston and he was so nice and down to earth and made the whole experience just wonderful. My cut and color turned out fantastic. Just be careful though, they threw in a few extras that I wasn't expecting that jacked up the price a bit. I'd go back and love my hair, but next time I'll be sure to have them tell me before they just do the extras. Tl;dr: Overall, great experience but lost a star for the added extras that I wasn't aware of.Service: Haircut

Really great experience and live up to my expectation. Winson was really great.

Beautifully relaxing atmosphere. Nice professionals. Did great work.

They wanted to charge more for products than the sign display on the shelf stated. The guy that assisted me said they could not help what the price said on the sign? And that the product costed more. I ended up calling Aveda Customer Support and they gave a case #. False advertising. I went back and pick a different combination of products, figured the price according to their sign, figured the tax. He did the price right then. I will not go back.

I loved the quality of the products they use. But I didn’t have another option for a hair specialist. So I stayed w what they had because of the product. Wasn’t very happy with the quality of the service w the person which was assigned to me. Maybe you have a better luck than me. The owner is awesome thought.
