Steve was incredible. I came in for a “transitional” cut while I wait for certain sections of my hair to grow out in preparation of a style I wanted to transition to, and what he came up with was so good I thought about just keeping it like that for awhile and getting him to keep doing it.

I was looking for somewhere to fix a bad highlight job (way too blonde and chunky for my brown hair) and I stumbled upon this place. The staff were so nice and fit me in for an appointment the next day. I went in hoping for anything to be fixed and left literally blown away by my new hair. Lexi was my stylist. As soon as she sat me down: she told me what she could do to fix things and was SO knowledgeable and explained aspects of my hair to me that I didn’t even know. She also made me feel super comfortable and led me through the process so I knew what was going on the whole time. She gave me gorgeous caramel honey colored hair- identical to what I wanted originally. Lexi is an AMAZING hairstylist and literally an artist. The rest of the staff are also so lovely and the salon has a great vibe to it in general. This place is a gem and my only regret is not finding it sooner!

I've been going to Jailee at the UES location for 6 years. She is the absolute best - a pro at cutting curly hair and also incredibly fun/friendly!! 💕 10/10 recommend.

On January 26th I got my hair done at Aveeda. This was my first time at the establishment. I got my hair done by Stylist Courtney. My hair is textured/ kinky / coily. I wanted a silk press hair style. She did not disappoint! Using Aveeda products and her expertise, my hair felt amazing.My hope is they continue in their journey of serving all clients with different textured hair.Also, shout out the receptionist who were very welcoming!Thank you

I had my natural hair cut and colored by Courtney and she was amazing! Not only did she do an incredible job, she explained to me what she was doing and how I could upkeep my hair until I was able to come back to her. She was kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. I will continue to use her as my hair stylist. She is absolutely wonderful!

Courtney is my stylist and she is Amazing...!!! She can look at your face and cut your hair. She knows your style and can style your hair to complement it. She thoroughly explains what she is doing and keeps you grounded in reality. Meaning that she will not steer you or allow you to have expectations that are unrealistic or unreasonable. Love You Courts...!!!!...❤

Extremely clean, well organized and relaxing environment set by the aroma of Aveda in the air. The staff is very courteous, knowledgeable and professional. The front desk staff were very helpful. They made my checkout experience quick and comfortable without me feeling pressured to purchase unwanted products but did offer me products that was actually very useful which shows that they pay attention to detail and are experienced in what they do.

I had made a decision to cut what was left of my dreadlocks, off my head. It was not that I didn’t love them anymore but I actually had outgrown them and needed change. And because I was on 86 street in NYC ,I remember seeing an J. Scott Aveda near the corner of third Avenue. I stepped inside , the receptionist was kind. I noticed that a beautiful black woman who was taking care of a beautiful white woman’s hair is staring at me, the receptionist asked me to wait and the black woman came over and introduced herself as Demi. Demi asked questions pertaining to my hair and the appointment was made. I returned for my appointment and every single person in the salon seem to know that I was there to see Demi ,they were smiling they were cordial ,one guy came over t to say “hello you’re chopping your hair how long have you had those locks“, and then Deming went to work and did exactly what we had talked about the week before. I am so pleased that someone understood me without me having to beg for what I was paying for.I suggest that you ask for Demi if you have any intentions to go there. If you don’t get Demi I’m sure that someone else there can treat you the way I was treated which was really good.

Can't rave enough about the Scott J experience. I have been going there for 5 years now and consider it a treat every time I go. From the amazing shampoo and head massage and professional service, it is worth every penny. I have been seeing David the whole time I've been going there. He is FANTASTIC. Not only am I satisfied every time, but his coloring and balayage ability is amazing. He knows what will look good/won't look good and I completely trust him to work his magic. He is so talented, leaving me coming away so excited to show my new hair off every time.

Right from booking my appointment 2 weeks ago, Scott J Aveda clarified any COVID related concerns and put my mind at ease straight away.The salon is spotless and you can see the stylists sanitise their stations after every client.My hairdresser today was Kevin and I would 100% recommend him to anyone: he’s very kind, very patient, and obviously knows his way around hair.Thank you to all the staff at UES Scott J Aveda for the impeccable service. I’ll be back soon!

I went into Scott J Aveda Salon on Friday after a DIY hair color disaster using Overtone. I was pleased with how completely professional the business was with cleanliness standards in light of COVID-19. The did a temperature scan, provided masks to every client, gave disposable single use coverings instead of traditional multi use aprons, and used disposable towels in place of the regular towels. Everyone was polite, professional, and held sanitary measures to a high standard without sacrificing their customer service or quality.As for my personal hair experience, I was told by several other salons that bleaching would be required to remove the pink dye from my previously platinum hair. However, Dawn worked her magic and managed to completely get rid of all of the splotchy pink without bleach, all the while leaving my hair soft and feeling quite healthy and undamaged. She was very friendly and knowledgeable, and I had a wonderful experience with her. I knew immediately I was in great hands and I highly recommend her as a stylist.

Lovely experience. I’ve received haircuts from Skye and Daniela on separate occasions (I booked based on availability for that day) and they were both excellent.The atmosphere is very relaxing - they offer water or tea (in real mugs!), have an awesome playlist, and there is a natural vibe, both from the smells of the Aveda products and the earthy tones of the decor. The staff is professional, sweet, and efficient. When I walk in I feel like I’ve entered a little haven of calm in the midst of the city.Skye gave me a beautiful gloss and haircut and Daniela was impressively quick while not at all feeling rushed. I also bought a few products recommended based on my particular hair needs which I look forward to trying. My hair feels healthy and full. Will go back again!

I suffered a traumatic hair experience elsewhere and had half of my hair burnt off due to an inexperienced colorist. I was referred by a friend to your salon and told to ask for David. Needless to say I now call him the hair whisperer. His patience and skill are unlike any stylist I have ever encountered. Between his warm, easygoing personality and overwhelming amount of talent I would never go to anyone else ever again. Not only has he repaired the damage he's done an amazing job at it. I wholeheartedly recommend him 100%.

I stopped in for hair products to enhance volume. As I walked in to this busy salon, a sales person raced to the counter to help me. This young man (Stephen) with great looking hair (lots of volume!) asked me how he could help and guided me through the Pure Abundance line. I bought two products: one I knew and liked (a spray named Style-Prep) and one Stephen recommended (a powder named Hair Potion). The powdered product intrigued me, especially after Stephen demonstrated how to reconstitute and use it. I'm here to give a rave review to Pure Abundance products, which I love (Wow, what a little powder can do to increase volume!) and to Stephen, who was absolutely delightful. Stephen was not pushy, never overbearing, but kind, enthusiastic, and helpful. Aveda Salon, keep this guy and promote him! He's a gem.

I went to Shelly at Scott J Aveda salon for 7 years while I was living in NYC. She did a fantastic job cutting my hair during that time and always made sure to work with me to make sure I liked the cut she provided me. She also did a great job coloring my hair for the first time! The employees at Scott J salon are very considerate and make sure your experience there is great no matter what. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a new place to get your hair done on the UES!

NYKIA is an AMAZING stylist! I had a wonderful experience at Scott J. Aveda salon on the Upper East Side. The receptionist was friendly and welcoming just like the rest of the staff. In addition, Nykia gave me the perfect blowout and silky straight hairstyle afterwards.Nykia's kindness, intelligence, professionalism, and knowledge are remarkable attributes. She goes above and beyond to treat her clients exceptionally well. She really listens and takes the time to understand your needs before styling your hair. The best part is that my hair came out beautifully because of her patience, care, and skillfulness.Overall, my appointment with Nykia was EXCELLENT!!! I would highly recommend her to ANYONE who is in the NYC area and looking to receive a gorgeous blowout. Thank you, Nykia and the rest of the Aveda team! Keep up the outstanding work!

TARA TURNER is THE BEST! She worked all sorts of magic on my over-processed, over-bleached hair. My hair was lifeless and many shades of ugly (yellow, green, purple). She removed all the unwanted color without any discomfort! (Ie burning scalp). She also cut my shoulder length hair very short to perfection. She listened carefully to my wants and offered professional advice at the same time. She is so talented, I HIGHLY recommend her! I love my hair & have been receiving compliments all day. I will be going back to her and you should too!

(I’d called them already and they’d had none but apprarently there was a last minute cancelation). Really went above and beyond to make things easier for me! Love this brand!
