More information

What's Included

A complete cleanse and finish designed to flatter longer hair.

  • Consultation to confirm your ideal finish and check length, density and texture.
  • Double cleanse focused on scalp health and mid-lengths.
  • Hydrating conditioner or mask for slip, detangling and shine.
  • Gentle comb-out to minimise breakage.
  • Heat protection and blowdry primer.
  • Precision blowdry in sections with round brushes, tailored to sleek, smooth volume or soft waves.
  • Optional hot tool refinement to smooth flyaways or add bends.
  • Anti-humidity seal and light finishing serum.

Who It's For

Perfect for hair that sits below the shoulders and needs a polished, long-lasting finish. It suits fine, medium or thick hair, and helps tame frizz while keeping movement and shape.

Ideal before events, meetings or weekends when you want hair to look done without daily heat styling. This is a styling service, not a haircut or colour.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Longer hair requires careful sectioning and thorough drying, so appointments include additional time. Very dense or very long hair may need a little longer for a refined finish.

For best results, avoid heavy oils and tight styles beforehand. Bring photos of the look you like so the blowdry and finish can be tailored to you.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Keep the style smooth by avoiding moisture for the first few hours. Sleep with hair loosely tied in a soft scrunchie or on a silk pillowcase to reduce friction.

Refresh roots with a light mist or dry shampoo on day two. Use a cool setting to restyle and a touch of lightweight oil on mid-lengths and ends.

If you plan regular blowdries, spacing them reduces daily heat at home and helps hair stay healthier over time. Always apply heat protection when you restyle between visits.

    The Japanese Head Spa was amazing! Thank you, Natasha — and thank you to Mia for the beautiful blow-dry. I’ll definitely be having this treatment again. 😊

    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 blowdry last on longer hair?
Most clients enjoy 2 to 3 days, sometimes longer with low humidity and careful aftercare. Hair type, activity and weather will affect longevity.
Can you create waves as well as a sleek finish?
Yes. The finish is tailored, from smooth volume to soft waves or ultra sleek. Light hot tools can be used to refine and set the look.
Is this suitable for very thick or curly hair?
Yes. Sectioning, round-brush technique and controlled heat smooth frizz while keeping movement. Products are chosen to support your texture without weight.
Do I need to wash my hair before the appointment?
No. A thorough cleanse is included. Please avoid heavy oils or excessive product build-up on the day so the shampoo can work effectively.
Can you blowdry extensions?
Suitable for most professional extensions. Gentle tension and bond-safe heat are used, and attachments are fully dried. Use a soft brush and extension-friendly care at home.
