Seems product is getting more expensive and quality isn’t being delivered as it was years ago. $30 for oz of hairspray, is a great example. Wtf. It’s obnoxious. The scent is why I stay, for now. Quality of everything is sub par. I had my coveted AVEDA experience in England in Dec. if it wasn’t for my AVEDA spa associate being superb, the experience as a whole was shit. Did not feel luxurious, nor pampering. It felt like any old spa appt. Not necessarily spa like elegance or accommodations. When I started using AVEDA 25+ yrs ago it was a whole different vibe. The experience was a stay in Ireland and a few days. Then an island experience. Now it’s in and out. A few hours. Definitely a bust to save my points for. My excitement and loyalty to the brand used to be unwavering. Now, if I found a scent I liked I could be persuaded easily to try and change my routine of 25+years. I saved up in college and reeped the benefits of an exceptional product. Now I spend way too much on a product that may be discontinued or the price may double. Each product worked as described and was spendy, but it was worth it cause it worked. Now I feel like if a line comes with a crème and a spray, it’s literally watered down not a ‘different’ product in that line. Quality has taken a hit, cost has gone way higher than worth. After Horst sold it has been watered down and the company commitment to quality on all levels has changed. Unfortunately.
