I hope this helps!
My typical cut lasts about an hour. This whole time includes the student consulting with the instructor what it is I would like done with my hair, the instructor approving, and getting me to sign that I agree. Then I get my hair shampooed and conditioned, and then cut, and then typically the blow dryer hits the hair to see the end product. Finally, the instructor comes back to make any final touch ups, if needed (and this has usually only happened for a loose hair, once). Then I am on my way -- well, they show me the products that were used and I love getting the travel sized ones!
I have learned a few "tricks" in order to get the best out of my trip. I typically schedule my appointment online, and get a text reminder about it the day before. I always request a master student, and I generally try to go in with the mind set that these are students too, and it's just a haircut. If you are looking for a color or true salon experience, I would keep in mind that the process will probably be longer than other places because you have someone who is practicing what they're learning.
Afterwards, I approached a different instructor for assistance with my uneven haircut and she graciously cut my hair again to make it even. A nicer student with a pleasant attitude was kind enough to allow me to use her blow dryer to finish drying my wet hair afterwards. However, neither this kind instructor nor another instructor, that approached us and heard my story too, offered me any type of consolation for my botched haircut, unfinished blow out, or for my botched eyebrow waxing service - I paid full price for horrible service :(
Worst haircut ever. All I could do was laugh when I left.
Horrible! I walked away with an uneven haircut and thin lines for eyebrows. The student was rude, constantly cutting her eyes at me for some reason and she barely spoke 2 words during the entire service. Plus, the instructor that gave her blessing to the uneven haircut didn't even supervise/mentor the student on the brow wax and didn't bother to check off on this service.
As a college student it is hard to find a place that cuts/trims for a reasonable price. However, I highly recommend Aveda!
The students are eager to learn and always do a great job. With the help of their instructors, I always get a great cut. When a student is getting ready to graduate, he/she will refer you to another trusted and talented student for the next visit. The cost for a hair is inexpensive in relation to salons in and around Baton Rouge. My son also uses this salon and he has gone from a rstraggly looking kid to a handsome, well-groomed young man (it helps when there are a lot of pretty young ladies!). Great place to get a high-end cut for a bargain price.
0 stars! I was not pleased with my experience at Aveda at all. I am even upset that I had to pay for my haircut. I went in for just a trim with a student and after we had discussed I wanted one inch off from the bottom and that I was okay with layers on the top, the instructor even came over and signed it off. My hair was originally down to the middle of my back. The whole time I was in the chair the student kept saying how dead my hair was. When she turned me around in the chair when she was finished she told me "I know I cut a lot, but it had to be done." My hair is now a little below my shoulders. She completely made her own call and chopped my hair off. I am completely dissatisfied with my hair cut and I am devastated that my hair had been cut so drastically. Never again will I go back for any of their services!
