More information

What's Included

A complete finish from prep to set.

  • Personal consultation to choose curl size, volume and parting.
  • Cleanse and condition chosen for your hair.
  • Primer, heat protection and frizz control.
  • Round-brush blowdry for root lift and smoothness.
  • Directional curl setting with cool shot and pin curls where needed.
  • Optional refinement with a tong or wand for extra definition.
  • Humidity shield, shine spray and light hold.
  • Personalised tips to make the style last.

Who It's For

Perfect if you want defined curls with bounce and shine for an event, night out or a confidence lift. Suitable for fine to thick hair and for straight, wavy or naturally curly textures.

If you love soft, touchable movement rather than a stiff set, this service is ideal. It also suits anyone seeking root lift and smoother ends without a heavy product feel.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Allow around 45 to 75 minutes, depending on hair length, density and the level of curl detail. Extra time may be needed for very long or thick hair or for extension blending.

For events, book earlier in the day so curls can settle beautifully by start time. Arrive with hair free from heavy oils or residue to help the set last.

Aftercare & Maintenance

For the first few hours, avoid moisture and excess touching while the set settles. Sleep with a loose silk scrunchie or scarf and use a silk pillowcase to reduce friction.

In the morning, revive with a light mist or curl refresher and twist sections gently to reshape. Use dry shampoo at the roots on day two and avoid heavy oils on the lengths.

If needed, redefine a few pieces with low heat and shield with a light hairspray or anti-humidity spray. Detangle with a wide-tooth comb or fingers to preserve the curl.

    I booked my teenage daughter in with Syd for a curly cut and style. My daughter was nervous but Syd put her completely at ease. She knew her stuff inside out and gave us lots of styling tips and advice to bring out the curls. My daughter was over the moon with the finished result. She is literally so happy and said it’s the best haircut she’s ever had and she’ll never go anywhere else. Thank you Syd! I’ll be booking in for my (non curly) cut next!

    Second visit to Vintage Avenue today and the service was outstanding once again. Jayne absolutely nailed my root touch-up and toner — she knew exactly what I wanted. Eliza styled my hair beautifully with the straighteners and left me with stunning curls. 10/10 — highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will the curls last?
Most clients enjoy their curls for 1 to 3 days, depending on hair type, weather and aftercare. Sleeping with a loose silk wrap and avoiding moisture helps the style last.
Will a curly blowdry suit my hair type?
Yes. Techniques and products are tailored for fine, thick, straight, wavy or naturally curly hair. We adjust curl size, tension and finish to flatter your cut and face shape.
Can you work with hair extensions?
Yes, most extensions can be styled, including clip-ins, tapes and bonds. Bring clip-ins clean and detangled so they can be blended seamlessly with your natural hair.
What should I do before my appointment?
Arrive with hair free from heavy oils or styling build-up so the blowdry sets cleanly. Bring inspiration photos and mention any time constraints at the start.
Can I choose the curl size and volume?
Absolutely. In your consultation we agree on curl size, parting and level of volume, from soft waves to full glamour. The finish is personalised to the occasion.
