Scott J. Aveda Salons

💚 TEAM MEMBER THURSDAY | Meet Annalise!

This week, we’re shining the spotlight on Annalise, one of our talented Interns at the Upper West Side! ✨

Annalise loves a great blowout and that final moment when a guest sees the finished look and leaves feeling confident, beautiful, and completely themselves. 💇‍♀️

Creativity doesn’t stop for her when she leaves the salon, either! From hair to makeup and nails, Annalise has always loved all things beauty and finding new ways to create. 💄💅

A few Annalise essentials: coffee ☕, summer ☀️, sunsets 🌇, the beach 🏖️, dogs 🐶 and a night out! Her current Aveda favorite? Miraculous Oil 🌿

💚 Show Annalise some love! Follow Annalise Shah and watch as she continues to learn, grow, and create at Scott J Upper West Side!

We’re loving Aveda’s NEW One For All Leave-In Elixir ✨

💚 TEAM MEMBER TUESDAY | Meet Michael!

This week, we’re heading to the Upper West Side to spotlight Master Stylist Michael! ✂️✨

Michael loves cutting and styling short hair, and his goal is simple: for every guest to leave his chair feeling lighter and a whole lot more confident.

And there’s a lot more to Michael than great hair! Before life behind the chair, he was a professional dancer, toured with a Broadway show AND worked on a cruise ship. 🕺🚢

A few more Michael essentials: coffee ☕, summer ☀️, dogs 🐶, early mornings 🌅, and apparently the perfect snack routine is salty → sweet → repeat. 😂

His current Aveda obsession? One For All Leave-In Elixir — and according to Michael, everyone is going home with it in their hair!

💚 Show Michael some love! Follow Michael Lucero to see more of his work, and come visit him at Scott J Upper West Side.

💚 TEAM MEMBER TUESDAY | Meet Yasa

This week we’re shining the spotlight on Yasa, one of our talented Stylists at our Morningside Heights salon! ✨

A few fun facts:
🌎 She’s traveled to 38 countries

The bixie is where softness meets edge—combining the confidence of a pixie with the versatility of a bob. ✨ Perfect for anyone craving movement, texture, and an effortlessly chic look that’s easy to style. Not quite a pixie, not quite a bob—just the best of both worlds❣️
