Aveda Salon Experience Comes to the Village of Rochester Hills

You've likely already sensed the telltale Aveda aromas coming from the new Douglas J Salon.

Inside the newest business to open at the Village of Rochester Hills, a sensory journey awaits.

That's because a cornerstone of the new Douglas J Salon at the Village will be the trademark scents of the Aveda products, which are available for purchase at the salon.

The 1,800-foot salon opened two weeks ago; it features six salon chairs and a full line of Aveda hair and skin care products.
