does anyone know what font aveda uses for the text on all of their products?

meta?

YES! i think you're right. how'd you know that so fast??

A company like Aveda would never use a Chank font.
Looks like they are using the newer light weights of FF Meta as well:

leftwave: i knew so fast because i am forced to use it on a regular basis. people love trendy fonts...

i wouldn't really call Meta "trendy". It's been around since '91 and been pretty consistently popular since.

just an opinion...

well, i was just in the shower staring at this bottle of shampoo thinking what a nice font was on it!

both Chank and Aveda represent Minnesota....

i talked to Chank on the phone once, he seemed a little TOO eager to sell me a disc of fonts for like $999, but he was nice.
meta is perty, i guess i'm just over it. and DIN. bleh.

Medtronic paid him 40-50k for their font, a bastardisation of Scala.
