Priscilla is AMAZING!. PRISCILLA IS AMAZING! I went to Priscilla at Avanti after having a bad experience at a pricey Newbury Street Salon. I needed a color correction and cut that would tame my mane. I have a LOT of frizzy hair that is hard to control. I told Priscilla generally what I wanted (to be blonde, but less "bleached" looking, and that I needed a cut that would be fun yet professional). I also asked her for her input. She told me we could make the highlights brighter and warmer, and contrast it with darker highlights. She also told me that the old salon had cut my ends far too bluntly and that she would soften them, especially the edges around my face.

Needless to say, my high expectations were fulfilled! I LOVE my color, and oh, the cut! It cuts down on blowdrying time in the morning and now my hair actually has movement. Priscilla was so nice and welcoming and lovely to chat wtih---this isn't a stuffy place. I couldn't be happier and STRONGLY recommend that anyone in Boston need of a little boost give Priscilla a call!

My Wedding Hair!!!. I have searched forever to find a colorist in Boston. Priscilla Collins corrected my brassy yellow hair and made it perfect! I had her style my hair for my wedding on the Cape. It was a windy hot day, however; thanks to Priscilla my bridesmaids and I looked simply beautiful. Priscilla was so sweet, making sure I felt like it was my day. I would recommend her 100%. Priscilla is truly the best in the business,

Avanti is Awesome. I have had the pleasure of being introduced to this salon because the owner and management have participated in Buy With Me coupons. This is a BIG benefit to the staff to ensure a healthy flow of business and allow new clients to try out the salon. I have had a fabulous experience and would recommend Julie. With that said, everyone's hair seems to always look great and they have made me a long term new client. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
