Aveda Concept Salon in Winter Park, FL — Mint on the Avenue

May 20, 2026 · Mint on the Avenue · 4 min read

Mint on the Avenue is an Aveda Concept Salon at 228 N Park Avenue in Winter Park, FL 32789 — a certified designation requiring a full Aveda back bar, ongoing stylist education, and alignment with Aveda’s ingredient and environmental standards across every service. Mint on the Avenue is the only Aveda Concept Salon on Park Avenue, serving guests from across Orange County and beyond. The distinction is not cosmetic; it shapes every product used at the basin, every protocol run behind the chair, and every item stocked on the retail wall.

What Does the Aveda Concept Salon Designation Actually Require?

Not every salon that carries an Aveda product or two qualifies as an Aveda Concept Salon. The designation is earned and maintained — not purchased once and forgotten. At Mint on the Avenue, that commitment has been in place since the first chair was set on Park Avenue.

Committed Back Bar
Every service — from a simple gloss to a full color correction — runs through the Aveda system. No substitute products are introduced mid-service.
Certified Stylists
Each stylist completes Aveda education and ongoing training across the full product system, not only the lines they use most often.
Environmental and Ingredient Alignment
The salon operates in accordance with Aveda’s standards for ingredient sourcing, sustainability practices, and low-impact formulation — standards that extend from the color bowl to the retail shelf.

It is a quieter kind of credential. You will not see it announced on a sandwich board. But guests who have sat in our chairs and then compared the experience elsewhere tend to notice the difference in how their hair responds over time.

Which Aveda Lines Does Mint on the Avenue Use Behind the Chair?

An Aveda Concept Salon is only as strong as its working knowledge of the full system. Our team trains across every line used behind the chair — not just the crowd favorites. The following lines are part of active, ongoing service work at Mint on the Avenue:

  • Botanical Repair — bond-building technology for chemically processed or heat-damaged hair, used before and after color services
  • Invati Ultra Advanced — scalp-focused protocol for guests noticing thinning or reduced density, paired with our Scalp Solutions work
  • Nutriplenish — deep moisture for dry, coarse, or low-porosity hair that needs weight and softness
  • Be Curly Advanced — curl-specific formulas that work with the hair’s natural pattern rather than against it
  • Smooth Infusion — frizz management without silicone coating, often layered with our Brazilian Blowout services for guests who want longer-lasting smoothness
  • Damage Remedy — restructuring treatment for hair that has moved past dryness into breakage
  • Scalp Solutions — a dedicated line addressing buildup, sensitivity, and scalp imbalance as the foundation of healthy growth
  • Foam Reset and Shampowder — waterless cleansing options for guests extending time between washes
  • Color Renewal — tone-refreshing treatment used between color appointments to maintain accuracy without a return visit every few weeks
  • Miraculous Oil — finishing and treatment oil used across hair types for shine and manageability

The retail wall reflects the same thinking. What sits on our shelves is what your stylist uses at the basin — not a separate retail line, not a compromise. The continuity between the service and the take-home product is part of what the Concept Salon model is built around.

Is All Color Work at Mint on the Avenue Done With Aveda?

Yes. Aveda’s color technology is plant-derived and low-odor — a meaningful distinction for guests who have found conventional color services difficult to tolerate. Color work at Mint on the Avenue, whether a single-process, a full highlight, or a toning gloss, is formulated within the Aveda system from start to finish. The Foam Reset and Color Renewal lines extend that work between appointments, keeping tone accurate without requiring a return visit every few weeks. For guests managing sensitivity or scalp concerns, the low-odor formulation is often the deciding factor — and it is standard here, not an upgrade.

Where Is Mint on the Avenue Located in Winter Park?

Mint on the Avenue sits at 228 N Park Avenue, Winter Park, FL 32789 — a short walk from the Morse Museum of American Art and around the corner from the Winter Park Farmers Market on Saturday mornings. The SunRail station is a few blocks away, making the salon accessible for guests who prefer to arrive without a car. Guests come from Baldwin Park (32814), College Park (32804), Maitland (32751), Audubon Park (32803), and as far as Lake Mary (32746). The neighborhood — unhurried, specific, attentive — sets a tone that suits the way we work.

An Aveda Concept Salon is not a franchise model or a chain. It is a small team that has made a deliberate choice about how to practice. That is what you will find on Park Avenue.
