When splurging at the Ritz-Carlton spa is a no-deal, thank goodness there is a budget-friendly alternative. The Aveda Institute in Winter Park is a fully functioning hair salon and spa with prices that are simply blissful. I'm talking $15 pedicures, $40 massages, and $40 facials… all performed with Aveda's legendary skin products. How, you ask, can this haven of pampering offer such low prices? Simple. The Aveda Institute is a school and all services are performed by students. So, will your Aveda pedi be as perfectly polished as your Ritz pedi? Probably not. But at these prices, you can afford to be a little less picky.

Here are the details:
