    Cool place!
    Davidm A.

    Look I get it... it's a school so you are not getting professionals you are getting students. So what more can you expect. But the girl I got for my haircut. I was her first male fade ever. I asked have you ever practice on anyone she stated no. Have you taken any classes on fades yet... she stated no... right then and there I should have gotten off the seat and ran.... but hey I'll be your practice run... oh boy was I in for a ride. Imagine walking into a place and picturing a nice smooth conversation with your sister and a fresh new cut... and then actually getting the total opposite. Everytime I looked at her inthe mirror I can see the lack of confidence she was giving herself. I tried to hype her up bit it did not work. So she ran from me... to her teacher he came and boom fresh fade... I give it to the guy he can cut and style your hair. He left the top long gave it good definition with some wave for product. He gets the stars. I don't recommend co.ing here if your looking for a fade. But if you looking for highlights dyeing and women cuts this is your place. They make women hair look good for students.

    Haircut (4 in. off, long layers + shampoo and blow dry)

    Didn't feel like paying $50+ for a 4-inch trim, so after reading several recommendations to get a haircut here, I decided to go for it. Overall, it's decent for the low $18 cost (shampoo, cut, blowout) plus tip (all-in I spent $28, which beats my $55 + tip cut at Ulta). Expect to be here for 1.5-2 hours though if you're doing the full shampoo/haircut/blow dry - they're students so they're still learning (I appreciate the attention to detail even if it takes a lot longer than a professional cut), so if you're in a rush or just expect to be in and out in under an hour, consider going elsewhere. My appointment was scheduled at 9am on a Sat. and I was seen right on time (I arrived 15 mins. early). My stylist was Luke, and she walked me through everything and wrote down what I was wanting to do! Overall it was as expected, and their educator checks in 3x throughout the visit: initial consult, wet/style, and final check in to make sure you're satisfied with the cut!

    I still love and appreciate Aveda but why take away the seating area? So now we're standing and waiting for service. Doesn't make any sense.

    I have a lot of hair so for the next 2 hours my student stylist colored and foiled my hair.

    I have been going here for 25 years and have always had great service. The prices are fantastic, so…read moremuch more affordable than traditional salon services. And every service is overseen by an instructor so you never have to worry. I've had cuts and color, including balayage and highlights. Fridays is the best day to go and make sure you show up 10 min before they open if you want to be seen quickly. If you come later you may need to wait 20-25 min to be seen.

    I used to live near this place so I could walk which was nice. They do not take appointments so be…read moreprepared to wait during certain hours. I just went for a wash and blow dry. My sweet stylist, Silas, was nice. I could tell that she was fairly new to working with clients. They take classes for about 8 weeks before coming into the floor. She told me she started in January. You do the math. (It's March) ;) I really wanted someone to wash my hair. I mean who doesn't love that! One of the things I have always liked about this place was that there are instructors all around. I saw three of them that day. Many of the girls were new and the instructors came out to teach and actually step in to show them a technique. An instructor will always come to check your hair before you leave so don't worry! Just for a reference, my wash and blow dry was 10 bucks!! They take tips but cash only!! I felt horrible as I only had 2 dollars to give my girl. The instructor made me feel just fine about it. She told me I didn't even need to leave a tip. The girls just love having the experience on the floor. So be prepared to bring cash if you would like to leave a tip. $$$
