Aveda Arts & Sciences Institute Minneapolis offers full-time programs in Cosmetology, Esthiology, and Massage Therapy, with services performed by students under the supervision of licensed educators. The institute has a Experience Center where guests can discover Aveda's products. While some guests have had positive experiences, praising the kindness and skills of students, others have expressed concerns about the quality of education and customer service. Some have reported dissatisfaction with the styling and cutting techniques, citing a decline in teaching standards. Additionally, some guests have experienced rude behavior from receptionists and issues with booking reservations. Despite this, some guests appreciate the discounted prices and the opportunity to support students' education, and may return for specific services like haircuts.
wait was longer than expected with an appointment, but not by much. i got a basic hair cut and was satisfied. prices are as advertised, no hidden fees.

I've had my highlights done there several times. I always have good results from the students. The students are coached by the instructor at every step. I would recommend going there. The price is much less for their services.

I applied for Aveda and got everything finalized with the help of the wonderful admissions team and Jennifer Allen. The process was pretty straightforward and any questions I had were answered greatly and made it easy to understand!!
