Thanks to the mission of Aveda founder Horst Rechelbacher, earning an education from Aveda Institute Las Vegas truly sets our graduates apart. This is reflected in our programs, which are dedicated to teaching the latest techniques and essential business skills and are committed to caring for the Earth. Rechelbacher felt the beauty industry was toxic and even criminal. He extensively studied natural healing and ayurveda, an ancient form of natural medicine originating in India and translating to “knowledge of life.”This led to the creation of the Aveda brand, which is now a giant in the beauty industry and promises the following:

  • Products that are all-natural and 100% vegan, now and forever
  • Cruelty-free practices with sustainability at heart, including:
    • 100% wind- and solar-powered manufacturing
    • 100% recyclable bottles
  • Caring for the world we live in by striving to set an example for environmental leadership and responsibility
This foundation serves as the basis for our beauty school programs, which include:

Curricula Unique to Aveda Institute Las Vegas

Aveda Institute Las Vegas offers a robust set of curricula completely unique to our campus. Over the course of our programs, students learn the following:

Aveda Curriculum

By partnering with Pivot Point, Aveda developed its standard curriculum called Aveda Institute Education. These lessons are taught in an online platform called Learn Aveda, which is accessible through the iPad each Aveda Institute Las Vegas student receives in their kit. Our graduates can even access Learn Aveda for up to six months after graduation as they prepare for their licensure exams.

State-Required Curriculum

The programs at Aveda Institute Las Vegas meet all standards established by the Nevada Board of Cosmetology and prepare students with the theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience required to successfully complete state certification exams. In fact, our programs meet the highest levels of accreditation for technical or postsecondary schools in the state – something not all beauty schools can promise.

Aveda Institute Las Vegas’ Masterpiece Program

Separating us from all other beauty schools, we offer a unique copywritten curriculum designed by cosmetologist Thomas Ciarniello, one of our original partners and holder of a master’s degree in art. With a dream to create trendsetting stylists, he developed this curriculum upon his firm belief that beauty and creativity go hand-in-hand. For our students, this means they’ll get the chance to explore the connection between beauty and art through courses such as painting, sculpting, poetry, collage, and more.

What’s more, we strive to meet each type of learner’s needs by utilizing the 4MAT® testing and teaching methodology across all of our programs. This enables our students to discover how they learn best, and in turn, they can tailor their education to the best teaching methods for them. It also encourages creativity and engages all learning styles, allowing students to integrate and experience the knowledge that will guide their careers for years to come.

Individualized Learning Support and Career Services

In addition to the education needed to excel in business and spa and salon services, Aveda Institute Las Vegas provides the tools required to find rewarding work after graduation. Upon mastering the skills of their craft, students will prepare for post-graduation employment with instruction in a variety of professional skills, including:

Students can jump-start their career search with job placement assistance through multiple career fairs and access to a local network salons and spas, making the transition from student to beauty professional simple. We’ll also continue to provide unwavering support to our graduates as they prepare to take their licensure exams, no matter where your license takes you in the industry.
