Love having my hair done by Natalie, she knows what colours work for me and is happy to spend a while discussing different options. Always pleased with the cut. Cheeky massage in the chair is a bonus whilst having hair washed!

The quality of service I receive at Avant Garde is second to none. From the moment one enters the sleek, clean, and welcoming salon, staff do their utmost to ensure the experience is a pleasure. I'm always delighted by the high standard of finish and trust no other salon to style and colour my hair (and the massage chairs are a decadent bonus!).

Due to health reasons I had to have my hair shaved off (25 November 2015). Sam was brilliant in making me feel comfortable in what was a very daunting time for me. She had a chat with me first, and was very patient and did it in stages. I felt like a weight had been lifted off me. At a time when I thought I would be in tears, I came out smiling. Thank you again Sam.

I visited Avant Garde for the first time on Tuesday and will certainly be going back :-)

My stylist was Ashleigh who was brilliant from start to finish. I felt she really listened to what I wanted which resulted in a great colour and cut.

I look forward to my next visit :-)

Chose the St Martins Avant Garde to get my dark red hair changed to a brunette. Had an initial consultation with Ashleigh about what was possible and to do a strand test to see how easily my dark red would lift out. She was very professional and gave me a really clear breakdown about prices for the various different treatments and colour I would require.

When I came into the salon to start the treatment, I was offered a coffee and had the pleasure of enjoying the massage chair whilst waiting for the lightening agent to take effect. I chose this salon because of the fantastic reviews and I was not disappointed!!

Ashleigh was lovely and a fantastic stylist! I would absolutely recommend her. The £79 I paid for the several hours I was in the salon, which included bleaching, full head colour, and repair /nourishment treatment was completely value for money!! (Very important since I am a student)

The finished result was even better than I had hoped - will definitely return

Today i had my first hair cut in years (very long hair) and was recommended Avant Garde by a friend...it was great! My stylist was friendly and asked me what i wanted and gave me tips on what would look good and what products would work for my hair. I felt well looked after and came out with a smile on my face with great hair. I recommend Avant Garde for anyone who wants friendly, hands on staff and a good atmosphere.

I've been coming to this salon for a couple of years now, but my stylist Clare has been amazing. Every time I go to the salon, Clare makes me feel so welcome and always goes the extra mile by looking for new styles for me to try out and even teaching me how to style my own hair at home. I love getting my hair done because I have such a laugh and I always leave feeling great, thank you Clare!

I have been a customer now for over a year, had tried a few salons before but none of them seemed to listen to what I wanted or have continuity with staff.
Naomi, Mandi and Annie usually put up with me now on a weekly basis for blow dry and colours, they are all very professional and a joy to see! I never have to worry now about my hair, I have a busy job and the hours the salon is open fits in well with my needs.
Thank you girls for making my life easier and doing such a good job!

Colour,Cut & Blow Dry

Very disappointed with my hair appointment last night. It started poorly when I entered the salon to find the cleanliness poor. The hair dresser decided to cut my hair dry ( I had worn it in a bun all day whilst at work so it still had a lot of kinks it in) The colour I am very pleased with (she transformed a very yellow blond to a gorgeous ash colour). However by the time she washed my hair it was 8.45pm (they close at 9pm) so she then rushed the wash (I still have die in it!) and rushed the blow dry. At no point did she check the cut properly, it is still at different lengths, no weight has been taken out, my layers were not touched, my fringe is an awful shape - I would complain however I do not trust them to fix it! I will not be returning or recommending this salon. Cheap cut for a reasonable price.

My sister and I have been coming here for some while now and there's a reason. Actually there's a few reasons. Let's start with the friendly atmosphere, always being greeted with a smile and genuinely interested in what's going on with you. We are always listened to about what we want done and when not sure the advice is superb and individualised to what suits me. We always see Annie and Claire and they are totally fab. Cannot speak more highly of this place, well worth coming, highly recommend ! Luce says she loves it millions. ????

I booked for a blow dry at the last minute and as I have quite thick, long hair I like to be in & out as quick as humanly possible! Also, I have a hair salon phobia - so you can imagine my anxiety going to a new salon.

The staff were genuinely relaxed & friendly, I felt extremely welcome & relieved. I am soo happy with my blow dry too, it's very glamorous and I LOVE that my stylist knew exactly which Kerastase to wash & treat my hair with, to me, that's the sign of a great salon - all carried out on a very comfy massage chair, no horrible basin cutting into your neck, just relaxation!

Thank you soo much, I just want to also say that it was a relief not to have someone start prying into my life either - I think that's incredibly professional and a relief. x Thank you! x

It was my first time at Avant Garde. As soon as I walked in I was greeted with big smiles and taken through to the really spacious modern salon by Catherine to chat about what I wanted. Once I'd decided Catherine showed me a lovely cut on the iPad which we both agreed would look good. The hair washing was an amazing experience with a chair that massaged you while you had your hair washed! The cut itself was a joy from start to finish, Catherine was absolutely lovely and I laughed all the way through, I felt really at ease. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to Avant Garde.
