I had the hairstylist Gabriella S. Let me just say she did an absolutely amazing job! When we went in they weren’t even doing hair cuts, but she confidently said she could do my hair. She did amazing! She got every layer I wanted. She just did the absolute best job and I couldn’t imagine it looking better!
I would like to start with the understanding that this is a school, and that these men and women are learning. I am sure that depending on the stage in the program the student is at it may reflect in the quality of the cut: That said, Luis Jimenez at just 5 months into his program did an outstanding job. This is a fine young man with a good head on his shoulders. Aveda should be proud of this young man going through their program, and I hope to use his services again before he completes his program. Definitely worth trying out their services.
I needed a hair cut, went to Douglas J., and was randomly assigned Hayley Lea — and I will *definitely* request to have her next time I’m in town! She was incredibly patient, a careful listener, and very flexible. I usually hate getting my hair cut because I often feel like the person doing my hair has their own vision of what would look good and loses sight of my initial request. Hayley was a very good communicator and I never felt like I wasn’t in control :. I 100% recommend requesting her for your appointment! In the picture below, she gave me a trim and short layer, along with a wavy/curly blowout
I had a Balayage done yesterday with Cynthia and I absolutely love it! Cynthia did an amazing job matching my reference photo and listening to what I wanted it to look like. It turned out exactly how I wanted it! This place was also very nice and clean. I was offered tea and water and I got a student discount! Definitely recommend this place! I’m absolutely in love with my hair!
Ella did an amazing job on my hair! She cut over four inches off and did an excellent job incorporating my existing highlights into the new color that I was looking for. Her educator checked in multiple times throughout the process, and Ella made sure to ask her questions when she wasn’t sure what to do. This is one of my favorite highlights that I have ever gotten. I will definitely be back.
Walking in the door I felt welcome right away, was checked in and immediately asked if I would like some tea or water. I do feel that the drinks should be served in bottles rather than a coffee mug, but not a deal breaker. After a few moments my stylist, Marisa called my name. She was very sweet and understood exactly what I wanted. Friendly conversation which is huge for me! She was getting to know me and I her. Great relationship to key to for me! Marisa made sure I was completely satisfied with my cut and length. I most definitely will be back to see Marisa!
I had A LOT of hair cut off. I got the hair cut with botanical treatment. I really liked the end result. My daughter got hers done as well. She really likes her new style.
Hi all! I wanted to express my thanks to Aubree for my haircut today. Not only was she extremely personable and friendly, she did a fantastic job on my hair with cutting and styling, and met all my expectations. Douglas J Aveda is lucky to have a student like her, and any future company would greatly benefit from adding her to their team! Thank you again Aubree, will definitely recommend you to my friends and return soon
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Addison M! She took so much time and care in making sure my hair was exactly the way I wanted it. I have paid 2-3x the price at other salons and never been as happy with my hair as I am now! Thank you so much Addison!! :
The main idea of this review is that the institute needs to make sure their students are comfortable cutting curly and/or textured hair. As a client I recommend speaking up as the cut goes on, having patience as it is a student, and if you are unsure or the student seems unsure, requesting an instructor. I came in knowing it is a school, but I only needed a trim and being new in town it seemed convenient. The front desk staff was incredibly friendly upon arrival and were diligent about asking for and receiving feedback upon checkout. My haircut ended up being satisfactory, but it was clear that the student got to a point with my curly hair that she was unsure how to treat it. I appreciated that she did not start hacking away and was careful enough to ask an instructor for help, but when trying to explain what I needed she said "I don't want to leave you with too much volume." To which I replied, "I have curly hair. I want volume. That's kind of the point." I even pointed to a picture on the wall of a model with voluminous curly hair as an example. I will note that an instructor walked by early in the cut and gave my stylist a note on technique, which was nice to see. When it came to her attempt at styling it, it was clear she was not used to my style hair or hadn't dealt with it much before. The appointment begins with an instructor hearing what the client wants before the stylist takes over performing the service. I would have appreciated the instructor acknowledging the texture of my hair with the student before the cut because it is not the same as cutting untextured hair. I also would have liked to be asked questions about how I normally style it, i.e do I wear it curly, how do I like to part it, do I straighten it often, etc., as all these things effect the final product. The hair stylist was quiet, which is I don't mind, but I didn't feel like she made much of an effort to connect with me. I would go back, but will definitely be clear about my needs and ask the stylist and instructor about their method and comfort level for cutting hair like mine. I hope this review is helpful for others coming in for a haircut.
