Why Aveda Institute Maryland

Rooted in care.

Aveda started as a small business in Minneapolis in 1977 with a mission of care and well-being. Here in Bel Air, we bring that mission into the classroom: experienced educators, practical skills, business strategy and an eye toward wellness and eco-conscious beauty.
