Generally, the hair cuts are only okay, but my hair was long enough at the time that the stakes were pretty low. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1509134 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 15:27:21 +0000 alphagam84 1509134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went to one in Chapel Hill before and it was a great haircut. Just takes a little longer than usual as they have to have a teacher approve their work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1509097 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 15:19:21 +0000 keiki_mama 1509097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have! When the Aveda Academy was new in town it was my go-to salon. It got pretty popular after a while and the wait list became over a month long for a haircut so I started going elsewhere. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1509094 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 15:18:16 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1509094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not aveda specifically, but another hair school... I went consistently for about a year but ended up going back to my regular stylist because there were so many botched cuts and dye jobs. </p> <p>@mrswin: oh, there was never an instructor supervising them - ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1509081 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 15:15:44 +0000 MrsH 1509081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: not a haircut but a facial and a pedicure. It takes foooorrrreeevvvvveeeerrrrrrrrr because they go through everything with the instructor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1509048 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 15:08:36 +0000 mrswin 1509048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: I have done it many times and have always had a good experience. The instructor/mentor comes over at each step and the stylist explains what they are going to do etc. One this though is that it will be longer than a normal cut at a salon because there is a lot of consultation </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1508832 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 14:30:27 +0000 LemonLong 1508832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At my aveda salon they have different levels of stylists- the alphas cost $25 for a women's haircut- they aren't students, but are new graduates. Then there are protégés which are a level up and cost $30. If the school thing doesn't work out, maybe check to see if your Aveda salon has any of the lower level stylists. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1508781 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 14:21:55 +0000 mrsjyw 1508781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't but one of my BFFs loves it!

Then I had a baby and couldn't afford the extra time it took to go there (drive AND ridiculously long cut time, they are learning after all).<br /> I loved all but one cut (Cut my hair all at one length and I had awesome bell-hair), and would totally keep going if I had the time </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-ever-had-their-hair-cut-at-an-aveda-academy#post-1508771 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 14:20:00 +0000 Freckles 1508771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sick of paying $$$ for a hair cut when i just want a trim! I'm thinking about getting a haircut from an advanced grad at Aveda but i've heard mixed reviews. </p> <p>Any experiences to share? </p>
