But it doesn’t have to be stressful. The next time you’re in the salon for a relaxing service, stop by the retail section—you’ll be surprised how many people you can knock off your list in one easy shopping experience.

We’ve created a guide to some of our favorite holiday gifts from Aveda, tailored to all the people in your life. Need a personal shopper? Ask your stylist for a little professional guidance—you’re in good hands.
