I have been to many wonderful Aveda salons in various cities (Portland, Phoenix, Seattle, Chicago, and even Boise), and have consistently had amazing experiences with stylists, estheticians, and massage therapists. This salon was completely substandard, from the lewd conversation between staff, dirty retail area, and being made to wait an extra 30 min after my scheduled appointment time because my stylist, Mandy, decided to take a long lunch. All of this could have been overlooked had the color and cut been acceptable. I change my haircolor and cut ofter, and am always ready to try a new style, however, this color was uneven and showing roots withing 3 days. The cut was crooked, and not in a fashionable way. The next time I am in town, I will return to Rain Salon in Meridian, or Graeber's Salon in Boise for a true Aveda experience.
