Arts and Ed help give me the basic fundamental tools to successes in the beauty industry! The educators are knowledgeable and care about each student to succeed! When taking my state boards in October I felt like the prep classes that Mary put together helped make me feel prepared and confident to pass! Which I did the first time! I am now a stylist at a high end salon and gave had the opportunity to trawl to LA for a the color summit with the top color stylists, be apart of photo shoots and I am putting on a fashion show or charity not to mention I am building my clientele and working with some talented hairstylists! And I truly believe I would t be where I am at today of it wasn't for art and Ed guidance and education! I recommend this school to anyone that is ready to be the best in the industry with the best education!!

This school seems to be a hit or miss situation. I've had neighbors who report mixed experiences,…read moremostly the complaints are service / attitude related with about half of them My experience was a miss. Service was to be high and low lights, mostly at the back of head . The student and teacher decided that they would only do highlights, which I caught part of the way into the service. (She kept my chair turned away from her rolling tray so I could not see the single bowl - should have been two colors). During the service, the student stated that she hated working with chemicals and hair, but needed to finish this section in order to graduate. Her focus was on skin; she intended to be an esthetician. My harshest criticism is directed at the male teacher. His demeanor was imperious and haughty. He was not available and non-responsive for checks as the chemical processed. At one point I had to get up to find both the student and teacher to ask for the chemical to be removed as I sensed it was over processing. I waited another ten minutes and decided to rinse this stuff out myself. They were taking a break as I walked by to the rinse room and the student followed me in to help. I was charged for the conditioners and other products they needed to put in my hair to repair the damage. I've put three family members though beauty colleges and been a color model at hair shows. I like to support the colleges and help student with the learning process. They were no able to take a cash payment, nor would they accept a check, which was not disclosed on their website. The check out student stated that personal checks signaled fraud. (I'm no thief or fraudster!) I did leave a $50 tip to the student with the check out student with the admonishment: "Please let her know to follow her heart in skincare and stay far away from hair services." A fish rots from the head IMO. This student had developed an attitude that was not customer centric, likely due to the influences of the teachers and management developing a toxic customer experience. She knew my hair was severely damaged but did not acknowledge or apologize. If she fails when she is on her own, it will be up to her to readjust the bad attitudes this school taught her. How could I hold her responsible for the bad acts of her teacher / influencers? The culture and experience at Aveda Institute is not a match for people who really know the service industry in my opinion.

I was so impressed at the amount of personal attention Veronica dedicated to my daughter to help her through this program - I guarantee that would not have happened elsewhere. My daughter went into the program with a low learning self-esteem and ended up with an A- average! This was a direct result of Veronica caring about her students success as individuals. Veronica is a veteran in the industry and has a personal relationship with the state board, so understands exactly what it is needed to move a student through to their profession. The school itself is clean and looks just like a salon! I'm not sure where the person below go that it is in a rough neighborhood, because it is not at all. It is located on a busy street, however parking is directly in front of the front door and every time I have either been to the school or driven by I have never once seen homeless or shady-looking people. Make this your choice and you will not be disappointed!

Service: 5/5 Cost: 5/5…read moreQuality: 5/5 My face is GLOWING, hunny! First impression? A little chaotic upon entering but a beautiful, myriad of creativity on full display from the front desk attendants, to the students, to the customers. You can tell that this is a place of artistry. With the increasingly cost of facials, I remembered people recommending going to beauty schools for discounted rates, so I decided to book myself in for a facial here. My esthetician, Jade, was professional and thorough, starting my session off with a requested consult and facial recommendation: Glow Getter to combat my skin's dryness. Bro, a student, stopped in to shadow for a bit and even secured my wrap. 30-45 minutes later, my skin was glowing - receiving lots of compliments, and I was checking out at the front desk, arranging for my next facial with Jade in a month. If that doesn't convince you to check out this place, then I don't know what will but I fully recommend and suggest that you do!
