My daughter went to Kristen for a cut and all-over color, and we couldn’t be happier! She’s really picky when it comes to her hair, but she absolutely loved how it turned out. I was nervous we’d have to spend a lot of time trying out different stylists to find someone she’d be comfortable with, but we hit the jackpot with Kristen. She listened to what my daughter wanted and nailed it. We’ll definitely be coming back!

“Kelsey” helped me today to schedule a massage for my sister-in-law. She was very helpful in planning and scheduling the surprise massage. Very sweet and personable.

I am still in complete disbelief that this happened in an Aveda concept salon. I booked with a tier 3 stylist for a balayage or hand painted highlights and the salon lost power while they were processing my hair in the bowl end up leaving with a super dark color, wet hair and no apology. Called a few days later and explained the situation and they decided to booked me with their “blonde specialist” I dragged the date because I was concerned for the integrity of my hair since the first service provided let my hair feeling dry, dull and over processed. The date finally came and sat in hairstylist #2 chair. She seemed knowledgeable and understanding. She recommended a money piece and to come back at a later day since my hair looked compromised. Then when time came to stop at the checkout line and I was planing to do a tip of course but the salon management had other plans they wanted me to pay the differences between stylist experience and category which they never disclosed to me in addition to not fulfilling the same service that was provided the first time. The front desk lady got the manager and this person was not only unprofessional but lack the proper emotional intelligence and costumer service of a leader. She wouldn’t even acknowledge that I was in the room or even make eye contact. I have never felt more uncomfortable and discriminated in a place before. Now not only my hair is damaged from what it’s considered a highly rated “ hair professional” but also a patchy work, with super light bangs and overall dark. For transparency I always communicated that I wanted to book with someone that had the capacity and understanding of a dark base.

I started going to Veda after losing 60% of my shoulder length hair from an illness and after trying a couple stylists I found Maci who gave me a gorgeous pixie cut and got me my groove all the way back! I could literally let her wash my hair for eternity and I LOVE to see her every single time! I give her free reign and she NEVER DISAPPOINTS!

I would recommend Christopher to anyone seeking excellent service!!

I booked a facial with Lindsey trying to use up a gift card I had before I moved. Besides how great my skin felt, the massage during the facial was just what I needed during a very stressful time. I haven’t been that relaxed in years. I’m sad I’m moving now.

I had a hair cut appointment with Angela. She took time analyzing what would be best for my dead ends, teaching me about how to manage curls, the product lines at Aveda and I got a fabulous hair cut to boot. I have already recommended her to 2 friends. I'll be back to see her for all my hair needs.

I recently visited Salon Veda in Colorado Springs after responding to a Facebook post, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Kenzie McAfee, despite being busy, came over to greet me within a few minutes, and her pleasant demeanor immediately set the tone for a great visit. Kenzie took the time to have a genuine conversation with me about my profession, the type of haircut that would suit me best, and even tailored her approach based on my extracurricular activities. Her interest in ensuring I received a hairstyle that worked for me was truly impressive. The haircut itself was fantastic. Kenzie’s skill and attention to detail were evident, and I’ve already received several compliments on the cut. As a result, I’ve made a few recommendations for her to friends and colleagues. I highly recommend Kenzie McAfee and Salon Veda for anyone looking for a personalized and high-quality salon experience. Thank you, Kenzie, for the wonderful job! I will certainly be seeing you soon!

The massage is always fantastic. Racheal is absolutely amazing! Always nails the haircut I want and if I give her free reign does incredible work. She can work around my hair which I’ve heard from every barber is thick and hard to work with.

EmJ did a great job with my hair. I just had a simple haircut and conditioning treatment but she really made it feel like a peaceful, professional experience. I love the way my hair turned out and I will definitely be returning.

I’ve seen Angela for eyelash extensions for over 10 years. She is so gifted in her art! The front desk staff greet me by my first name when I walk in the door. Always so warm and welcoming!

Mariah, my stylist was excellent in every way. She greeted me warmly, listened to my needs and communicated effectively. I understood the process and what results to expect. Mariah is amazingly talented and I left my appointment feeling spectacular and ready to conquer the world. I will definitely return and without a doubt recommend Mariah to everyone I know who has hair!!!
