Since moving to Worceter a year ago, I've struggled to find a good hairdresser..and today Naomi was my find of the day & she has been nothing short of lovely & a great stylist!!!

She listened to what I like and wanted whilst suggesting what was needed to refresh my hair!

I have no complaints at all....and I will happily return and trust my locks with Naomi!!!!

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!

It was the first time I had been to this salon. After having nightmare colours done at previous salons; this one did it perfectly. They spent time understanding what I wanted and looking through pictures. The cut and blow dry was great too. I will be coming back here.

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!

I came here for my first time back in the summer with extremely damaged hair, I saw Lindsey and she was amazing from start to finish she has put my hair back into amazing condition. I recommend her to both my mum and sister. It's now our family salon. She makes the trip to the hairdressers fun, she listens and gives great advice.

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

Cut was fine, massage chair amazing during hair wash. However it's a pet hate of mine to use straighteners to smooth hair rather than a good blow dry.

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.

What a relief it was to find a lovely salon and a stylist that could actually cut a bob ! I had had several stylists at different
salons over the last 18 months and all horrendous......wonky bobs, lopsided fringes, layers put in when not requested.......
need I say more ! Then I discovered Mandi. What a difference. She managed to remedy it. She listened and gave me the
options to sort out the mess I walked in with and I left with a bob ! I can recommend the salon and Mandi and I love the
massaging chairs when having your hair washed !!

Can't fault

Anonymous

I was first drawn to the salon when it first opened. Free parking and great location attracted me. I have been returning ever since because I have never had a bad cut. However it's more than that, the opening hours mean flexibility, the stylists have a certain style, I mean there is definitely an AV kinda stylist and I like that vibe. Then there is the booking on line, so easy and simple, the salons sign and layout feels modern, and I love the mini massage I get when my hair is washed.

I am trying to find fault and I simply can't.

I have been a customer since the salon opened and wouldn't consider moving. It's location was the first draw for me, free parking is always a bonus. Then I was offered a corporate discount. Again, a great way to get me through the door. Now I return because the salon is relaxing, high quality, good value and customer focused.

I love the fact that I can book online, with transparent pricing. They all treat me and my daughters so well. Top marks all round.
