Love Your Future With Aveda
Student Inspired, Consumer Centric
For decades now, Aveda Institutes around the world have pushed the limits of beauty and salon services. That’s why we’re proud to have made our transition into being Aveda Institute Boise and Aveda Institute Twin Falls over five years ago. We believe that our philosophies fit seamlessly with that of the brand, and we live the Aveda mission every day through our curriculum and educational standards.

About Us
Both of our locations in Boise and Twin Falls are owned and operated by successful hairdresser Nathan Shaw. Students in our programs are welcomed with open arms as creative, passionate, and unique individuals. We’ve designed our educational system to cater to those who’ve always felt that they are different, and that their futures were destined to be something unique.
What Makes Us Stand Out
The Shaws
When Nathan Shaw owned a salon in Boise, Idaho, named The Electric Chair, during the course of hiring and bringing on new stylists for the business, it was found that the educational level of the stylists in the area was lacking. That’s when he decided to open their his first school in 2007. He knew that, as a successful business owner, he could help elevate the overall level of education for students who wanted an education that prepared them for life in the salon. Our owner is one of the many things that we think help us different!
Our Curriculum
Not only do we provide the Aveda-standard education for our programs, but at Aveda Institute Boise and Aveda Institute Twin Falls we also add our own little twist. Nate bring their industry knowledge into our classrooms. A section of our curriculum is focused on salon training. You can learn business, marketing, and salon-life skills from real business owners. We designed this portion of our classes to help prepare our students for life outside our beauty school.
