Our team at Inspire Greatness Aveda Institutes aims to efficiently prepare students to enter the beauty industry. We help them achieve this by providing a working salon and spa right on our Tucson campus.

Our facility is open to the public, and clients receive hair and spa treatment services for an affordable cost.

We ensure all services are completed in a luxury, comfortable environment. The salon and spa is built with 11 spa treatment rooms along with a manicure and pedicure room. We also have reclining chairs to deliver enhanced client comfort. All our services are performed under the guidance and supervision of our licensed instructors, meaning clients can feel good knowing their treatment will run smoothly and the products used are vegan and cruelty-free.

As an Aveda beauty school, we understand that education can be expensive. But we also know how important it is for the progression of your career. That’s why we offer financial aid to those who qualify. We also take care of students even after graduation, giving them access to our Student Care Team. They assist students with finding a job once they finish courses. Aveda has connections with over 7,000 stores, salons, and spas in the industry.
