I've been here twice and I'm not impressed. First, I had color done and it took about 5+ hours (which I can understand since they're students). It came out ok, but is has mostly faded in less than a month. I usually go without coloring for 4 months, so it's not normal for my hair to not hold the color. Crappy dye at Aveda, I guess. Then later, I went in for a haircut. The 'instructor' totally screwed it up and gave me a mullet. Plus, the students are pretty new, so you could get someone that has only been in school for a little over a month. If you need a trim, go get it done. Otherwise, go somewhere else!
Pros: cheap
Cons: parking

I have had nothing but bad experiences at this school. I do understand that the students are learning but they just dont seem even the slightest bit educated. I have gone in for a few facials [each time with a different student] and I never seem satisfied. I have also gone in for a brow wax & I am still in the process of letting them grow out. I also so I woman get her hair dyed & it turned out awful. She was so angry & her hair looked ruined. All & all I wouldn't recommend it.
Pros: Great atmosphere, Cheap
Cons: Un-educated students
