LOVE LEARNING THE AVEDA WAY
Our innovative, 1600-hour Cosmetology course includes hands-on learning and digital curriculum. With the Learn Aveda digital platform, you’ll be able to access your curriculum on your ipad day and night.
At Aveda Institute Las Vegas, you’ll get to explore all aspects of the beauty industry while using world-class, sustainable products that are plant-infused, cruelty-free and vegan friendly. Not only do we care about your education, but you’ll see how philanthropy is at the heart of who we are.
One of the things you’ll love about our institute is the ability to hone your craft on our busy, clinic floor. With more than a thousand services booked a month with our students, you’ll grow in confidence and skill with our expert educators assisting you each step of the way.

THE AVEDA COSMETOLOGY CURRICULUM
