YUCK: Very 'alternative' and very grunge now. Most of their classes have been very GRUNGE for the past few years. Honestly it's difficult to trust someone's instincts / skills for my hairstyle / color when their own personal styles are from another land: butchered/choppy hairstyles, crayola colors on their hair, and disturbing facial piercings. I'm not grunge, so this isn't for me any longer. (have been a customer for decades ...)

If you don't mind spending double the time it usually takes to get your haircut, these people do a great job at rock bottom prices. I would NOT try to go here if I was a bride, a movie star or do to be back at work or the airport in 45 minutes..... I've gone here on and off for 10 years and maybe had 1 bad experience.

I have been to the Aveda Institute for hair cuts and single process hair coloring with senior stylists. I have always been very happy. I used to pay about $200 from my stylist for the same services but since I lost my job, I have needed to cut corners a bit. I was initially very nervous to come. However, I have been extremely pleased. It sometimes is hard to get an appointment exactly when you want to prepare in advance and I would not recommend going on a weekend if you have a choice. They do have weekday appointments. All ... read more

Don't count on getting a haircut. – I had waited weeks for this appointment and was really excited about getting my hair cut there. I had my hair cut previously by one of their professional stylists and was very pleased. I felt like a nice cut would be uplifting and I was grateful for the discount. It was in the middle of winter and freezing cold outside, I made it over there, waited, was seated. I told the stylist what kind of cut I thought I'd like and he said ,"we don't do that here" . That was it. End of discussion. I wa... read more

student practice spa – It is a school, it is a school, it is a school! I had the $50 self renewal facial which stated 90 minutes with foot AND scalp massage. I told the student five times my preference of stronger massage, but she kept on her gentle almost could-not-feel-it touches. When asked why no scalp massage, she answered it was one OR the other. Besides, the total service was only 80 minutes. The whole service was relaxing though very chilly, since I was only half covered with a tiny sheet. She kept on putting differe... read more

Very bad cut, not worth saving the money. – I have very long hair. I thought.."they can't mess up a trim, right?" Wrong. I asked to have an inch taken off with a little long layers around the face. One side of my hair is two inches shorter than the other side. The layers are uneven, choppy and cut straight across so there is no blending of any kind. I was amazed at how bad it was. I had to pay to get it done a week later..I'm amazed people would go here for color. I can't imagine how that would turn out. I will never go back... read more

Quality depends, Supervision sucks – So, I went online and found a student to cut my hair by the name of Marie (lacongolove@hotmail is her email address, I still see ads for her on Salon Apprentice so she must still be looking for people). The haircut took 2.5hrs, and since she didn't know what she was doing, her supervisor had to come over and fix it for another 30 minutes. She sliced herself open halfway through the haircut really badly, and I could tell by the look on her face that she was new and wasn't sure of what she ... read more

Loved it! – My friend gave me the brochure from this place. She gets her hair cut and colored and it always looks nice. I booked the Rejuvination Package and it was great! The student who gave me my facial and back treatment was not only professional but very attentive. I've been to many spas in the past and never walked away feeling and looking so great. The room where I was given my facial was more like a clinic, but for the price, soo worth it!
