Jess knocked it out of the park yet again! I walked in feeling scraggly and unkempt, and walked out feeling beautiful. I absolutely love this fresh cut. It's gorgeous and cut to flatter my hair type and face shape while staying low maintenance. Jess gets to know each of her clients and tailors her work to the individual. I am always impressed by her excellent skill, warm professionalism, and attention to detail. So thrilled to join in celebrating Avanza's 1 year anniversary. To many, many more! read more

I had a great time with Emma today! I was looking for a new salon/stylist and I think I found them I went in for a haircut, and Emma took her time and made it look really nice. She also has a nice personality and is fun to talk to! The salon is nicely decorated, and the vibe seemed pretty friendly. I will be back and will plan on adding highlights to my next appointment. read more

I came back for a trim with my bae Rachel - my hair is gorgeous! She is the best - she listens, is a great conversationalist, and on top of that she's talented with cut and color. I'm a devoted client and recommend her to all of my 3 friends. I don't mind the drive (I like about 40 min away) and take the time to get some Mexican food too. My hair is growing and she takes care not to cut too much and even dusted a part of my hair that tangles so bad - long haired girlies know she's a diamond that's hard to find!! read more

I found Tiffany on IG and the thing that stood out to me was her portfolio of wavy and curly hair, as a curly haired girlie it's hard to find a good hairstylist that does curly hair. Tiffany was extremely sweet and asked detailed questions about my hair, what I wanted it to look like, and when I got there went over my inspo pics again with me as well as understanding how my hair looks day to day to make sure it came out correctly according to my hair routine. She knocked it out of the park and even gave me bangs again!! It's always so tricky to find someone to do bangs for curly hair and I didn't want to push for it but Tiffany was so willing to do it and it came out amazing! I got there pixie curly haircut I wanted!! Thank you again Tiffany, if you're a fellow curly hair girl or wavy hair go to Tiffany!! read more

I had such a great experience with Tiffany. I came in with really long hair with no shape and left with everything I asked for. She also took the time to give me product recommendations for my type of hair and how to style my new cut. She's so easy to talk to and is happy to answer any questions. I'm so happy with my results, I'll be back! read more

The stylist I went to (Maria) messed up my hair and now I don't know how to fix it. I went in hoping to do a calico hair look. I showed her pictures, and I went in to do a consultation + test strand. I specifically told her the colors I wanted, and how light I wanted the blonde to be. She said my hair pulled amazing and I could definitely get to the blonde I was hoping for. She mapped out how it was going to look, and I said that it was a little too chunky for me and I wanted it to be broken up more. She sent me a picture and asked if this is more what I was looking for. I said yes that is perfect! But she didn't change the mapping for my hair at all and literally just did the same thing as before. My hair has 8 total sections. She put like 4 inch money pieces of "blonde" in the front, (not at ALL what I wanted) and she put the "red" and the brown directly next to each other so it just looks like blonde, dark, blonde in the back. About the blonde, I literally was more blonde before I came. The blonde I received is literally just yellow. Not at all what I wanted. She toned down my blonde pieces, so now if I want to go more blonde I'm literally going to have to bleach it AGAIN. There was so much bleeding going on, and my hair is just splotchy all around. Considering the fact that I was there for 8 hours, (when she told me it would take her 6) and the fact that I paid almost $400, you'd think she would've did a better job. I'm also not even sure if she fully knew what she was doing bc she was also constantly asking the other stylists help/input in front of me. I didn't say anything once it was finished because I was there for 8 hours already and dropped $400 on it so I was hoping I would just warm up to it, but at the end of the day, it's not at all what I asked for and I'm extremely unhappy with it. There's days I don't even like to look at myself in the mirror because I just miss my old hair. Now I have to figure out how I'm gonna fix this mess and waste another $400 doing so. That is if they'll even be able to fix it‍ In the photos attached, the first photo is how my hair looked before, the second is what I received, and the third is the inspo pic I wanted. read more

Yesterday, I visited Avanza for a root touch-up, and Maria provided excellent service. However, the final bill was a shock - $180, which included some unexpected hidden charges that left my wallet feeling empty. read more

I have thin, dry frizzy hair due to menopause. I was depressed with my frizzy hair for years. Took a chance and went to Avanza. Maria was my stylist. She was very pleasant and suggested that I try a gloss and deep conditioning treatment, since doing a keratin treatment would weigh my thin hair down which is not what I wanted. Can't say how pleased I was after seeing my hair styled and radiant after she was done with the blowout! read more

Took my daughter here for a back to school special, which is an amazing offer by the way. We normally have the owner style us, but experimented with a new stylist and we're so happy with the results. The salon is very clean, inviting, and fully stocked. Even stylists who weren't working with my daughter checked in on us. When we left my daughter was so excited about her hair cut she sent pictures to all her friends. I'm always a little hesitant to have new people work on me or my kids, but was very happy with the style and how patient Maria was with my kid. I'm looking forward to getting my hair done next! read more

This review is long overdue! After discovering this salon, I've been so much happier with my hair, my look, and my confidence. The vibe here is so warm and welcoming. ou truly feel heard about what you want for your hair, without any judgment. Today was especially meaningful because, after many years, my mom finally got her hair done after damaging her color with box dye, which left her hair orange/copper. Maria is truly a blessing! My mom suffers from high anxiety, and Maria was incredibly patient and made her feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. She is seriously the BEST! I highly recommend her! All of the ladies here are genuinely kind and really listen to you. I'm beyond grateful that I came across Avanza Salon! read more
