"Hiring students from the Aveda Institute makes it easier on me as an owner because I don't have to spend as much time, energy and money retraining them on the Aveda methodology. They come prepared already knowing product knowledge and the Aveda signature spa services." - Marjorie Livingstone, Owner, Aveda Bethesda Salon and Spa

"I like to hire students from the Aveda Institue because they are so much more ahead of the game than students from other schools. They are light years ahead in knowledge and cutting technique. They're able to go out and make a difference right away as opposed to training with someone else first. They have a very strong grasp on the Aveda methodology." - Riccardo Santoro, Owner, Varuna SalonSpa.
