Cannot recommend enough. So much care and attention throughout. At the consultation Sydney made sure she completely understood what I liked and honestly advised what would suit me to ensure I would be happy with the result. She exceeded my expectations with the end result, I’m so happy with my hair, beautifully blended and suits my colouring. Was so well looked after during my colour and cut was so pampering. Also advised on products to help my hair for aftercare. Thank you so much

Can’t recommend The Vintage Avenue highly enough! Everyone there is SO welcoming and lovely. Want to especially mention Jayne and Chloe who were so fab to chat to and did the best job of my hair - have never been so pleased with the colour after years of trying to achieve a certain blonde! They both took their time to really understand what I wanted and looking forward to my next appointment 😊

Just visited the lovely team at Vintage Avenue. The very talented Chloe has been blending my greys — not hiding them and I’ve walked out with the prettiest silver hair. I absolutely LOVE it! 😍

Chloe has been my colourist for years, and I never knew it was possible to have the perfect hair experience every single time! She understands not just my hair, but my lifestyle too. I always leave with a smile and a bounce in my step. ☺️
