    After my haircut, Rojas reviewed it and Caroline proceeded to blow dry and curl with a flat iron.

    I've been going to Aveda for more than 15 years and it's been about the same experience. Expect…read morestudents and educators to be working on your hair so the cut may not be exactly what you are expecting. However, I've been pleased by the quality of the work as the prices are below $25 for a shampoo, cut, and style. For short hair, it takes between 60-90 minutes as the wait depends on when the educators are available to review and if the starting time is exact. As long as you are flexible, this is a great place to visit. You may not get consistent results as the student and educator may change, but overall it's a nice place to come if you want quality Aveda products at value pricing.

    After moving back to San Antonio, I've struggled to find a consistent hairstylist. I go to places…read morewhere it's a great experience the first time, but the next time what I ask for is ignored. The final frustration was paying $60 for a haircut that felt rushed as I was sent home with my hair dripping wet afterwards. A co-worker mentioned having found their now stylist as a student at Aveda, and persuaded me to try them out. Now keep in mind when you come here these are students that are learning and all are at different points in their training. Don't come here if you're going to be rushed. With that being said, I was fortunate enough to find someone amazing on my first visit! Madalynn took her time, but was precise with her work. I left with the exact haircut I requested. I scheduled a second appt with her a few weeks later and am happy to report I left even more impressed than the first time! I definitely think I've found my new long term stylist (fingers crossed). Once she completes her training, I'll follow her to whatever salon she may end up at. The process is time consuming, as they have to wait for their instructors to check in, have to clean up their workstations, and are potentially trying out new techniques. However, this doesn't bother me because in the process I ended up with beautiful curls I wasn't even expecting. So happy I tried them out!

I've had gel pedis, dip manis and a Green "Cat-Eye" Gel and Dip Powder Mani in December and Gold "Cat Eye" Gel Mani on Wednesday. Shay has even done freehand flower designs on my big toes in Aug. & Sept. 2025. I saw her own nails and how creatively designed they were so we chatted about her journey. She already had done mani and pedis on her friends and family so she was already skilled as far as nail art. She just had to get the education, learn more techniques and instruction so she could get licensed. Shay is always friendly, engaging, patient and listens to the client's desires. She is willing to work with you and make helpful suggestions based on your choices and lifestyle. She's even informed me of what a licensed manicurist can and cannot do. Miss Whitney, her instructor has been a helpful guide whenever Shay's had a question. Miss Whitney always says "Come back again!" For all services, Shay will go thru a checklist and pricing to verify you are aware of what you are having done up front. You have to sign the Consent Form w/disclosures and your signatures. For the Basic pedis, I've had the gel polish which is finished with a Green Tea scrub, peach lotion and cuticle oil. For the dip Manis, I've had the standard until I had the Cat Eye technique in Dec 2025. Shay had a small green colored oval area on her nails and I asked her about it so she worked with me on the base Green color and top Green color to create the effect. The polish has magnetic pieces that creates a 3-D effect when you use a magnet after applying the polish, then finishing with UV light. I never knew about this and thought it was pretty cool esp. when I'd turn my finger. I had the #40 Gold Cat Eye Gel polish last Wednesday without the dip so I can give my nail beds a break from the dip powders. Shay helped in the consultation and the price point turned out even less to get the effect I wanted to achieve. I only have one other appointment before she graduates but already follow her on IG. She has lots of uploaded pretty nail designs! Wishing her the best of luck!
