I had my haircut at the Aveda Academy for the first time and I must say, I was impressed at the service for the price I was paying! I only had a haircut so I can’t really comment on the other services but my haircut turned out to be better than I had expected. For haircuts, you can request three different level of stylists, the most junior charges $16 while the intermediate haircut (wash and style) costs $30 (the highest level charges $45, I believe). I requested a haircut with the intermediate stylist and she did a really great job with my haircut. Overall, the atmosphere, services and products exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend haircuts here.

highly recommend. excellent services and products. usually a bit of a wait when getting service done but understandably so since it's an academy/teaching school. make sure you take into account parking hours - located on king street section w/no tolerance tow-away zone

I'm really impressed with the service at the Toronto Aveda Hair Institute. The staff are very professional and friendly. Your session starts off with your choice of tea, coffee or water...then they give you a super relaxing head massage with some aromatherapy oils. My hair cuts have always turned out amazing. And the prices are super affordable - I only paid 30$ for all this great service. Because this place is so popular, you need to book an appointment at least a month in advance.

This place exceeded my expectations, but I must admit I kind of thought it might suck. There are two levels of students open the public and I chose the pricier, more experienced ones. I got a colour touchup, partial highlights, and a cut. After tax it was about $75. Not bad, considering it would be around $150 for three of these things at another place. The only annoying thing is it takes a long time. If you need a colour/highlights and a cut, they book them over an hour apart.

The girl didn't quite do it right the first time she did my highlights, and so actually that hour came in handy - she redid them. The first set of highlights was too close to my natural haircolour so you couldn't see them but she redid them, did an awesome job on lowlights too and the cut was actually fantastic. The ambiance is good. Lots of magazines, coffee, tea, free hand massages, and apparently Aveda Academy does free bang trims if you got your hair cut there. No appt. needed just walk in, done in 10-15 minutes. So I am planning to go back.

Haircuts here start as low as $14 in the Junior salon, and around $20 in the more experienced one, and the cut was great. They are mostly young girls, but I like that they all have a good sense of style and many of them are up on the latest trends just having finished their training.

Again, the only annoying thing is you have to book a few weeks in advance and it can take a long time.

This location is a student academy, so the price of the haircuts is less.
