I love Aveda, BUT way too expensive I love Aveda, but their prices are too expensive for the small amount of product. WHY can't we get bigger containers???.. The containers do not increase in size and in fact, have decreased, yet the prices continuously increase. Awards and free samples do not compensate for the massive amount being charged. Aveda is a multi-million dollar company, so when will they stop being greedy and become more customer enlightened? Why can't they make 12 or 16-oz containers? They're charging $40 for 4 oz...WTH!! It's called gouging, just in case you didn't know the terminology. Shame on you Aveda for using lame excuses for your high prices.

I do wished I had read these reviews… I do wished I had read these reviews before placing my first an order online with Aveda. My experience mirrors that of many other people. When my order arrived there were missing items. I then used the WhatsApp process which isn’t very customer friendly. I had to chase a response and when eventually they did respond I was informed I would have to wait a further 5-7 days for my order, plus the free sample I had now ordered was unavailable. I won’t be using again. I was expecting so much more, especially from a product I’d perceived as being a luxury brand.

Dreadful customer service After several long phone calls, I was finally offered a refund of 20% off my order, that was originally offered by Aveda as a first time purchaser. The discount was not applied as I had samples in my basket and so that apparently negated the offer. Problem was, I did not add these samples, Aveda did, and there was no way I could remove them! After 3 long phone calls, the woman FINALLY agreed, "as a goodwill gesture" to refund the 20% (and only after I told her to cancel the order immediately). My order of £154 should have meant a 20% refund of £30.80. What I have actually received is just £23.10. There is no point trying to call again, it was like banging my head on a brick wall. Needless to say, I will not recommend or buy from the company (or indeed Estee Lauder) again. The items will be returned as soon as they arrive. Dreadful customer service - and I wish I had read the reviews here before I started this waste of time debacle. UPDATE: Despite Aveda asking me to contact them by email, which I have, it's clearly just a ploy to make them LOOK like they care about customers. No reply whatsoever...

Not honouring their terms and conditions of sale I was shopping on their UK website for Black Friday and there was an offer for a free gift (hair brush) after you purchase a certain amount. The offer was meant to last until end of 26/11 but for some reason when I tried to place the order in the afternoon, the offer expired and switched to something else, even though the free gift was showing as in-stock on their website. Tried calling them but was told the item is now out of stock and there's nothing they can do.

Never again so disappointed They raised surprises in the product. I have used for years and years. They're making you buy it in a tiny little bottle of five ounces which I use in one Application. I'm so disappointed that they are not selling larger sizes. It is ridiculous and I've seen so many reviews that people are never gonna order to give. And I'm joining that I'm never, ever ordering it again. I'm so mad. I'm going to have to find another product. And i'm going to start doing my research Tonight and i'm finished with you
