Colour & Toner Grey Blending & Regrowth Highlights and Foils Blow Wave Haircuts — Women, Men & Kids SmoothFiller, Nanoplasty & Straightening Upstyle & Hair Tinsels Great Lengths Tape Extensions Midweek Offers · Tuesday to Friday

★ “My hair always turns out amazing.” — Google review

All Over Colour Package from $229

Your colour, perfected. Every Hair Avenue colour service uses Wella's Koleston Perfect ME+ — the world's most advanced professional permanent colour. With Pure Balance Technology, it neutralises free radicals caused by mineral build-up in your hair, delivering richer, truer-to-tone results with significantly less damage, colour after colour.

The ME+ molecule is a Wella-exclusive breakthrough — over seven years of research and 3,000+ formulations tested — that reduces the risk of developing a new colour allergy by up to 60 times. Gorgeous colour shouldn't come with compromise, and with Koleston Perfect, it doesn't.

Up to 100% grey coverage, up to 5 levels of lift, and natural depth and shine that lasts.

Book Now
Toner / Gloss Maintenance (with blow wave) from $165

Bring your colour back to life between appointments. A gloss (or toner) is a gentle, bleach-free colour that sits over your existing shade — taking out brassy yellow or orange tones, evening out patchy or dull colour, and adding depth, richness and shine. Think of it as a top coat for your colour, lasting around 4–6 weeks.

Your gloss is mixed to suit your hair using Wella professional colour, and the package is completed with a professional blow wave and styling.

Will it straighten my curls? No — it smooths and reduces frizz while keeping your natural pattern.

New at Hair Avenue · Official Great Lengths Salon

Tape-in hair extensions with Great Lengths Essenza tapes — about 20% smaller and lighter than standard tapes, with a medical-grade hypoallergenic adhesive and clean, residue-free removal. Colour-matched to your own hair, moved up every 6–8 weeks and reusable for months. Every Hair Avenue stylist is Great Lengths–trained. Read the announcement →

GL Tapes by Great Lengths
Consultation & Colour Match Free

A relaxed, no-obligation chat with a Great Lengths–trained stylist to work out whether tape-ins suit your hair, what you’d need, and exactly how it will look. Allow about 20 minutes.

What’s included: a check of your hair’s condition and density; a plan for how many pieces you need and where they’ll sit — a full head for length, a partial set for volume, or a few single-sided pieces around the face; and a colour match against your own hair in natural daylight at the root, mid-lengths and ends, from the Great Lengths Essenza range including rooted blends. You leave with an exact quote and a booking plan.

How to prepare: come with your hair down, clean and dry, styled the way you usually wear it, and bring a photo or two of the length or fullness you’re after. If you already wear extensions, leave them in so we can see them.

Why it matters: no guesswork. If your hair isn’t ready for extensions yet, we’ll tell you and give you a plan to get it there — we’d rather say so now than after.

Good to know: all installs using salon-supplied Great Lengths hair must be booked with a consultation first, so we can match and order your shades before your fitting.

Book Now
New Tape Extension Install from $270 to $570

Longer, fuller hair in a single appointment. Great Lengths Essenza tapes are about 20% smaller and lighter than standard tapes, so they hide easily and move like your own hair. Allow one to two and a half hours, depending on the number of pieces.

What’s included: fitting of your Great Lengths hair, or your own hair if it’s in good condition and safe to apply; cutting and blending so the ends sit seamlessly with yours; a styled finish; and aftercare advice so you know exactly how to look after them at home.

How we do it: a small section of your hair is sandwiched between two slim tapes with a medical-grade, hypoallergenic adhesive. The tapes lie flat, are placed to follow your natural growth pattern and sit clear of your parting and hairline, so nothing shows whether you wear your hair down or in a low style. No heat, no glue bonds.

How to prepare: arrive with clean, dry hair washed with shampoo only — no conditioner, oils or styling product near the roots, so the tapes bond properly. Booking colour as well? We’ll do the colour first so your extensions are matched to the fresh shade.

Why clients love it: the quickest professional extension method to fit, light and comfortable for everyday wear, and the hair is reusable — it’s simply moved up every 6–8 weeks as your own hair grows.

Book Now
Tape Extension Move Up Package from $280 to $580

Your regular maintenance appointment, every 6 to 8 weeks. As your hair grows the tapes grow down with it, so we bring them back up to the root and your extensions look freshly fitted again. Allow one to two and a half hours.

What’s included: gentle removal of every tape, fresh tape tabs on the same hair, re-application at the root, a shampoo and blow wave to finish, and a quick health check of both your own hair and the extension hair. Removal and blow wave are part of the package — nothing to book separately.

How we do it: a specialised Great Lengths remover dissolves the adhesive so each tape releases without pulling. The hair is cleaned of any residue, re-taped, then fitted in fresh sections so the weight is spread evenly and your own hair keeps growing out healthy.

How to prepare: come with clean, dry hair, shampoo only, with no conditioner or oils near the tapes. There’s nothing to take out beforehand — it all happens in the one visit. Try not to stretch past 8 weeks, as grown-out tapes can tangle and pull.

Why clients love it: the same Great Lengths hair is reused visit after visit, the result stays consistent, and your natural hair is protected. Wearing extensions from another salon? We’re happy to move those up too — if the hair is in good condition we’ll re-tape it, and if it isn’t we’ll tell you honestly what your options are.

Book Now
Tape Extension Removal Express from $100 to $200

Taking a break from extensions, or ready for a brand-new set? A quick, gentle removal that leaves your own hair clean, intact and ready for whatever comes next. About 15 to 30 minutes, or a little longer with a blow wave.

What’s included: removal of every tape with the Great Lengths remover solution and your hair handed straight back. Add the shampoo and blow wave option when you book and we’ll lift any last trace of adhesive while it’s still fresh, so you walk out styled rather than sorting it at home — most people choose this.

How we do it: the remover dissolves the adhesive so each tape slides out without tugging or force. Done professionally, it leaves no residue and no damage to the hair underneath.

How to prepare: nothing special — come as you are. If you’d like a new set fitted straight after, tell us when you book so we can allow the time.

Good to know: not our extensions? No problem — we remove other salons’ work too.

Book Now

Smaller, lighter tapes

About 20% smaller than a standard tape for a more discreet placement and a natural blend — even on finer hair.

Gentle, medical-grade adhesive

Hypoallergenic, flat against the scalp, with the weight spread evenly so your own hair grows out healthy.

Reusable hair

Re-taped and moved up every 6–8 weeks. The same Great Lengths hair can be reused up to three times.

Clean, residue-free removal

A specialised remover dissolves the adhesive so the tapes release without pulling — no residue, no damage.

Common Questions ▾

Will they damage my hair? Not when applied and removed correctly — the tapes are light and flat, and removal is residue-free.

Do they suit fine hair? Often, yes. The smaller tapes lie flat and hide well; we check density at your consultation.

Can I wear my hair up? Low ponytails and soft styles are ideal. Tell us if you love high styles and we’ll plan placement for it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your visit.

Show FAQsHide FAQs
Is Hair Avenue walk-in friendly? +
Yes — while we recommend booking online to guarantee your preferred time and stylist, walk-ins are always welcome when availability allows. We'll do our best to fit you in — we've even been known to squeeze in last-minute visitors from out of town.
Where can I park near Hair Avenue in Braddon? +
Free street parking is available along Lonsdale Street and surrounding streets in the Braddon precinct. There's also paid parking at the nearby Braddon car park. We're just off Northbourne Avenue, a short five-minute walk from Canberra Centre and Civic. The salon is at Unit 102/16 Lonsdale Street — look for us at street level.
What payment methods do you accept? +
We accept cash, all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex), EFTPOS, and contactless payments including Apple Pay and Google Pay. We want to make payment as easy as possible.
Do you offer a free consultation before colour services? +
Absolutely. We offer complimentary consultations for colour services and major changes. It's the perfect opportunity to discuss your vision, assess your hair's condition, and get an accurate quote. You can book a free consultation directly through our online booking system.
Is Hair Avenue LGBTQ+ friendly? +
100%. Hair Avenue is a proudly inclusive, LGBTQ+ friendly salon. Everyone is welcome and celebrated here, exactly as they are. Our team is committed to creating a safe, comfortable, and affirming space for all clients.
How do I book an appointment? +
You can book online 24/7 through our Phorest booking system — just click any "Book Now" button on our website. You can also call us directly at 0449 801 937, or simply walk in! Online booking lets you choose your preferred stylist, service, date, and time.
What is Hair SmoothFiller and how long does it last? +
Hair SmoothFiller is a deep conditioning treatment that infuses your hair with proteins and vitamins, repairing damage, eliminating frizz, and restoring incredible shine. It's formaldehyde-free and safe for colour-treated hair. Results typically last 8-12 weeks. It's one of our most popular services and something most Canberra salons don't offer.
What is nanoplasty? +
Nanoplasty is an advanced smoothing treatment that uses nanotechnology to penetrate deep into the hair fibre, eliminating frizz and adding lasting shine without harsh chemicals. It's ideal for curly, wavy, or unruly hair types. The treatment is gentle enough for most hair and delivers silky, manageable results that last for months.
Do you do men's haircuts? +
Absolutely — men's haircuts are a core part of what we do. Clipper cuts ($55), skin fades ($65) and buzz cuts ($40), plus full restyles. Walk-ins are welcome when availability allows, or book online in seconds.
Do you do kids' haircuts? +
Yes — we welcome children and families. Our team creates a relaxed, fun environment so kids feel comfortable. We understand little ones can be wriggly — no judgement here. We're also a great choice for a family booking so everyone can get their hair done together.
Do you do hair extensions? +
Yes — Hair Avenue is an official Great Lengths salon, and every stylist on our team is Great Lengths–trained in tape-in extensions. Start with a free 20-minute consultation and colour match, where we check your hair, plan the pieces and give you an exact quote. New installs, move-ups every 6–8 weeks and removals can all be booked online — and we happily move up or remove extensions from other salons. Learn more about tape extensions in Canberra →
Do you have blonde specialists in Canberra? +
Yes — blonde is what we do most. Krystle and Trin are blonde specialists, and every foil, balayage and toner uses Wella Blondor with built-in bond protection for up to 97% less breakage. Half-head foils are from $299, a full head from $350 and balayage from $395, all including a custom toner and blow wave, with midweek packages from $275. See our blonde specialists page →
