The Aveda Difference
Aveda products are known worldwide for their quality and mission. Becoming a student at an Aveda Institute gives you full access to the entire Aveda product line, a rare opportunity that beauty professionals at other schools usually don’t have. Aveda products are effective, indulgent, and earth-friendly, making them the ideal tools to help our students learn to be masterful estheticians.
In addition to the products, our students also have the opportunity to become part of the Aveda network. This large collection of graduates is spread across the globe, connecting all of the Aveda family together. This network is where students can be themselves and express themselves among a family of beauty professionals. This opens opportunities for continuing education, business, and growth for many of the members of the network.

Spa Floor
The best way to learn is by doing, which is why we dedicate most of our program time to the spa floor. Once the introductory phase of the program is completed, students have the opportunity to move into the spa floor and start performing services on real clients. The students are helped and supervised every step of the way by licensed estheticians who can help students sharpen their skills.
While working the spa floor, students have the opportunity to start building their own book of business. Students can grow their business and bring their guests with them when they graduate from the school. This is important for our students because it helps them to be set up for success after graduation by building out their resume and providing a base of clients that can continue to support them.
Our spa area is built specifically with our students and their services in mind. Modern, innovative, imaginative, and bold. All things that describe our students and our student spas!
Extracurricular Learning
Learn from industry professionals, interview with local employers, and build your network with beauty professionals all while you’re still in school. These opportunities allow you to expand your horizons as a beauty school graduate and can sustain you for years to come!
