Asha Gold Coast
Asha ranks thirteenth because the Aveda platform delivers a specific and replicable luxury — one that the Gold Coast location executes with the attentiveness the address demands.
Established in 2005, the Gold Coast Asha is the third of four Chicagoland Aveda locations and arguably the one with the most pressure on it — the Delaware Place address puts it in direct comparison with the city’s high-end independents. The service model is immersive from the first step: aromatherapy consultation, customized scalp treatment, and a head, neck, and shoulder massage built into every appointment regardless of service.
The talent-level pricing structure means clients can calibrate their investment to the stylist, which opens the door to a broader range of bookings than a flat luxury rate allows. Hair, color, makeup, extensions, and a full Aveda spa menu — massages, waxing, specialty treatments — are all on the floor. For the client who wants a known brand executed well in a neighborhood that can absorb the price, Asha delivers.
