Reviews of Avanzato Grooming Lounge

A.

I’ve been taking my son to see Stefan and his team for several years now and they always provides such a welcoming and friendly experience to us. I have struggled with taking my son to get his hair cut in the past however ever since I started to take him to see Stefan, he has been enjoying the experience and now loves having his hair cut! Stefan is very friendly, patient and engaging which makes my son feel comfortable around him. Thank you so much for always looking after us!

Avanzato Grooming is one of the best places for a haircut in london. I was changing barbers every now and then until I met Stefan this August and got an amazing cut. He is not only the best in his profession but is also a very hospitable host. I would recommend you 10/10 to visit and book him, you won’t be disappointed!

T. P.

Recently visited Stefan at Avanzato Grooming Lounge and had the Avanzato Full Experience. Such good value - a really premium experience and I came away feeling ten years younger. Stefan was really knowledgeable about a variety of male grooming factors and gave me a number of tips to try at home. Will definitely be visiting again soon - my new favourite place in London!

F. P.

Booked my husband a Royal Facial and Hair cut with Stefan! The best hair cut he has ever had and his skin was amazing too.He has become a regular now and travels 2 hours just to see Stefan! By far the best in the business.

I’ve discovered Avanzato after some bad experiences with other hairdressers. My haircut had been annoying me and was so hard to style as it was always cut wrong by my previous barber. I booked in with Stefan, and honestly I couldn’t be happier. The great reviews they get are more than well deserved ! After showing him some reference photos, he understood exactly what I wanted and did the cut literally impeccably. He also recommended some new products for me to use that have made styling my hair super easy & let me achieve exactly the look I wanted. I have since been coming here regularly; the service is super friendly & welcoming and I honestly couldn’t recommend Stefan more. It’s the only barbershop I can see myself visiting for the foreseeable future, and I’d recommend it to everyone!

I’ve been seeing Stefan at the Avanzato Grooming Lounge for a few years now and my only regret is that I wasn’t introduced to Stefan earlier. Having turned 50, I needed something to make me feel good about myself. I have the full experience everytime and I go away feeling a million dollars. Visiting Stefan is more than just a haircut. Stefan, and all the guys, are genuinely great people and it’s a visit I very much look forward to. Thanks guys!

S. K.

Purchased a voucher for my brother as a Christmas present, Avanzato full experience and it did not disappoint. Quote “best barber I’ve been to!” He loved the experience, Stefan was friendly and professional, put my fussy brother at ease, with no lack of attention to detail. Pampered was the word he used, living out side of London says the journey and result is well worth it highly recommended!

O. G.

I feel one should aspire to find a place like home. Avanzato Grooming Lounge is home to myself and many a lucky gentlemen. I would like to thank the Avanzato team for cultivating a sacred space for us gents to relax, replenish, speak and express ourselves freely. It exceeds a ‘traditional’ Grooming Lounge, this is truly an experience - one I highly recommend!

M. G.

Excellent Barber - Stefan was recommended to me by several friends. I have my hair cut fortnightly and despite him being so busy, he always manages to fit me in. Worth the money and trip I make - Cardiff to London!

A. K.

I've been coming to Stefan for a few years now, and the attention to detail on all fronts is incredible. It actually feels like an experience from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. Stefan and the team pride themselves on how they are presented with a great attention to detail. Great work team!

Z. P.

I went for probably my tenth haircut with Stefan yesterday and as always, it was exemplary. I walked out the door feeling fresh and ready to tackle the world. This is not just because Stefan made me look my best (which is a given), but because he is outstanding in his line of work and inspires me to work harder in my own career. He is thoughtful, attentive, professional, and helpful. He has gone above and beyond every visit and I just wish my hair grew a bit faster. I am looking forward to the day that my son is old enough to seat him in Stefan's chair so I can share the experience with him.

C. P.

Today I visited Avanzato Grooming lounge... Wow, I cannot recommend Stefan enough. The ambiance and service is impeccable. Best grooming lounge in London. Cannot wait to book my next visit.

K. B.

By far the most professional and welcoming barbers in London and beyond. Refreshing to see staff who show great care and attention to detail, a rarity in Mens barbering !

A. P.

Hands down the best barbers in London. From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave you are looked after with the upmost care and attention. The shop is wonderfully designed with great attention to detail for that perfect user experience. I was lucky enough to have the best haircut, beard trim and facial by Stefan, his precision is skilful. Stefan and his team have definitely tapped into a luxury grooming service missing from the man’s world. I would highly recommend booking an appointment, you will leave looking fresh, sharp and receiving compliment after compliment. Thanks Stefan for an experience worth every penny.

D. H.

Cannot recommend highly enough. I had the full experience with Stefan 2 days before my wedding. It was the best cut I’d ever had, and I had so many compliments on the stubble shaping. Also just genuinely enjoyed the whole experience - perfect relaxation. I told myself it was a one-off but I’ve already rebooked, the money I’ll save in products trying to get my hair to look good more than covers it. Brilliant guy too. I was unsure what to do and he went through everything before cutting. If you’re at all hesitating just book it.

Sweeney Todd Experience - Wet Shave experience via food.social I was glad I went to this as I have never been to a barbers for a wet shave I thought I would treat myself to a new experience. You first head into a clothing store and head downstairs into a stylish basement with barbers chairs and a reception area with the gin and cigars and pies just tempting you. As well as the various clothes and accessories which if there was a queue is a nicer distraction and time filler than a magazine. Was lucky this time around as James the founder of food.social was there to greet me and really warm and welcoming. Music from Sweeney Todd set the scene and I was ushered to my seat. Now I have seen the movie so I would hope my experience was a little different to the movie. The Avanzato team were dressed impeccably and took you back In time. I was treated to a luxury wet shave incorporating a facial with essential oils and hot and cold towels and there is an art to this as you are explained the process and reason behind each phase as well as explaining the oils and creams that are being used. A one point when asking if anyone has ever been cut (as you do) being told by one of the experienced team never in the 15 years he has been doing this but first time for everything as he takes hold of the cut throat razor and also mentions the razor is much sharper than standard ones so if I was to get cut would be looking at A&E for sure but it was all in fun and jest and really gets to highlight how this is really only for the trained. I never realised the number of steps from the cleaning and then opening of pores before with various oils and creams being applied before and after the shave along with the cold towel to close the pores does take time and you are in full relaxation mode in no time. This experience also included an exclusive gin tasting and cigar experience as well as Ginger Pig pies. So I skipped the gin and cigar side but went straight for the pies which were amazing. I want to know where I can buy these as I always say when you can remember the taste of something after sometime then that is a memorable dish you need to tell others about. A great experience and will be sure to be logging onto food social again to book my next adventure.

I have been getting my hair cut in Avanzato grooming lounge for around 6 months now. 5-star service in every department. Not only do I highly enjoy the experience when I visit with Stefan’s easy-to-talk-to and friendly personality, but I also leave the barbershop feeling great with an unbeatable style. Avanzato grooming lounge is not just a cut, it’s an experience, and I cannot recommend enough!

H. S.

Had an amazing haircut and beard experience at stefan avanzato...got my beard done by sam..sam is amazing with beard and for razor cut sharp detailing (very smooth)...very nice hot towel and massage... regarding the haricut...i went with the new you by stefan avanzato..the man himself...amazing guy..he will listen to you..asnwer all your queries and will be realistic...you will see the speed with which we works but you wont feel it...amazing precision with the haircut and has great knowledge....yes its pricy..it costed me £155 (100 for haircut , 55 for beard razor cut ) but it was worth it..as i had a transformation almost after 2 months....if u are reading this review i would say do give it a try and you wont be disappointed... as i was also quite skeptical but i took a leap of faith and here i am writing this review...thanks stefan and sam for a wonderful experience

I've been to most the 'best barbers' across London at some point during my life and had some truly excellent cuts/experiences. I was skeptical but also curious on if this could surpass what I've had before. Simply put, it did. Best haircut I've had. It's borderline alarming how effortless Stefan is. I walked out feeling relaxed, pampered and looking sharp. What was meant to satisfy a curiosity, I know will now become a habit. Stefan is also a lovely guy, really easy to chat to with fantastic advice on all things hair and beard. Already looking forward to my next cut.

B. H.

Cracking boutique hairdressers. Well worth the higher price. The fella who owns it has a great set up and even written a book on men's mental health and self care. Bloody impressive. Went for a post lockdown haircut, stayed for a decent chat and a bit of life advice. New regular spot for sure.

R. Z. J.

I was a bit sceptical of the price but I received the best haircut and service in my life Francesco is the best !

Fantastic experience - Stefan understood exactly what to do with my hair, and his cut is absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend!

Z. P.

Only when Stefan retires will I find another barber. Until then, I will fly if I have to for a trim and a shave. As it is, I travel 90 minutes to see the greatest barber around. Never have I enjoyed the conversation and cut as much as I do at Avanzato Grooming Lounge. He generously offered to talk my wife through a hair cut on zoom during lock down. Unfortunately for her, I now don't trust anyone with scissors and a razor except Stefan Avanzato. Don't change unless you're expanding. Lots of love for the shop!

h. b.

The service was good and I like the cut. Pricing is very expensive at £60 for a men's haircut

R. V.

Oustanding service. Lovely place and great chat! 🤙

E. A.

I have known Stefan for more than 5 years now and i wouldn't trust anybody else in the world with my hair than him. More than just a barber, Stefan is a dear friend of mine and i find sanctuary in Avanzato Grooming Lounge. By far the best Grooming Lounge in London and i highly recommend anybody who truly values the fine art of Grooming to go to Avanzato Grooming Lounge. Once you go once, you'll always come back - Fact.

A. A.

Simply the best of the best - I can’t wait for them to reopen again after lockdown. Francesco is extremely talented and I’ve recommended him & Stefano to colleagues at work. Outstanding service.

E. K.

I have been working in Mayfair for the last year and quickly found Avanzato and it's the best find I have made. The team are all amazing at their craft and highly professional throughout. I strongly recommend you visit and try them out, you wont find a better grooming lounge and will be making the regular trip to central London.

Z. B. (.

This is no ordinary barbers. The lounge brings the quintessential element to the entire grooming experience that is based at a truly remarkable venue and location. The outstanding barbers are extremely welcoming and down to earth, all while remaining professional and providing an exemplary service. GQ wouldn't list them as being one of the best barbers in London for nothing! They have also taken cautions to be a Covid-safe space during the pandemic too which is great to see. An unforgettable experience.

J. T.

Stefan is hands down the best barber in London. Have had my haircut by both Stefan and Francesco and was very impressed by both of their skills and to top it all off, the space they are in is really nice and they have a superb bar in there with a great drinks selection. Can’t recommend these guys enough 👍🏻

M. V.

A truly unique first class experience, amazing space at Avanzato Grooming lounge in the heart of London - Mayfair. Hands down the best barbers I’ve ever been to, Finally found someone i can trust with my hair and beard. Stefan is a great guy and all his staff are trained to the highest levels, very friendly and polite. Won’t go anywhere where else from now on.

G. L.

Have been visiting Stefan for a number of years now. Having tried my luck with a few other barbers, Stefan is now my go-to Barber: he cuts to an exceptional standard, is reliable, consistent in his service, very welcoming and has great industry insight. Looking forward to seeing the Avanzato Grooming business expand!

C. P.

Every time I visit the Avanzato Grooming Lounge I feel renewed!!! I know Stefan 6 years now and since I met him, no one else touched my hair!!! He is the expert!!! Extra ordinary service and haircut as always!!!!

D. J.

Always a positive experience here and great advice too. Stefan has shown me easier ways to care and style my hair which has been a huge benefit for me, as a person who needs to get ready quickly in a morning. More importantly, the haircuts are consistently exceptional.

L. R.

Not many upmarket grooming lounges know how to cut afro hair or know how to manage our hair, but I am happy to say that Avanzato grooming lounge were able to give me a great bald face with a sharp shape up of my beard without messing up my hairline and no shaving bumps. Every man should experience this type of treatment in your life. I'll definitely be coming back the hot towel and essential oils were nothing short of amazing

C. H.

Avanzato Grooming Lounge is a barbers like no other. Situated in the heart of Mayfair, Stefan and Francesco have unmatched ability and service. They portray a professional yet relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Top guys, I promise you won’t leave here disappointed!

M. F.

Looking for that authentic Barbers experience, why not head to Maifair’s finest, The Avanzato Grooming Lounge, by Stefan Avanzato! Stefan and his team are all highly trained barbers using the best products available to truely give you the stylish look today’s men want. The guys are super friendly and they actually listen to you when you tell them what you want! A truly luxurious experience in the heart of Mayfair, go on treat yourself! I couldn’t recommend this place more highly!

R. S. d. U.

One of the best, if not the best barber in Mayfair. The guys at Avanzato created a fantastic barber lounge, I cannot recommend enough Francesco for his attention to details and care for perfection. Go there, you won't regret it.

B. K.

The most exceptional experience a groom could ask for before his wedding. Stefan looked after myself and my groomsmen sorting us out with clean shaves, hair cuts and some whiskys in preparation for the big day. The wife loved it. The cigar lounge was such a great touch, ultimate gentleman’s lounge. Will definitely be back.

J. L.

What an amazing space and great experience, I’ve used both barbers Stefan and Francesco and their skills and barbershop services are 2nd to none. A barbershop in the heart of Mayfair that offers everything a gentleman needs. Great bar and cigar selection, with a great cigar lounge area tucked away in the outside area. I’m now a regular and won’t go anywhere else.

E. K.

I have been working in Mayfair for the last year and quickly found Avanzato and it's the best find I have made. …

B. M.

In London, the best place to get a hair cut, freshen up and ready for a business meeting! Thank you Stefan for working your magic. You and your barbers definitely know what you are doing, I´ve never felt so good!

N. I.

Hands down the best barber in London. Stefan is a true gentleman... always super friendly. Amazing space. Make sure to go check it out it will no doubt become your regular barber spot

R. A.

This is more of an experience than just getting your hair cut. From the moment you open the door you feel welcomed which is a a very difficult feeling to attain. The barbers here take time with you and make sure you leave here feeling 100 percent and most importantly they get to know you and adapt to your style but still adding their own signature finish. You will be leaving Avanzato feeling a new found confidence.

D. B.

Easily the best Barbershop experience in London! Excellent haircuts and top atmosphere. I’ve been going to Stefan for years, I can’t see this changing any time soon!

S. H.

Great space, nice people and I got the cut i wanted after 3 years of home haircuts!

O. Z.

Went in for the first time today and it was a great experience. Francesco listened to exactly what I was thinking, made a couple of suggestions along the way, and delivered a great cut. I went in with high expectations and they were delivered, arrival to departure very comfortable atmosphere.The place is clean and sharp, they also offered me a drink (nice touch). this guys know how to deliver superior 5 star service. Used the online booking for the first time and it's as easy and convenient.

G. G.

Stefan is the best. Haircut and shave were excellent. The vibe is great in the shop. Very clean and calm. Best is the compliments I get from people after I get my hair cut by Stefan.

Never had such an experience in the field, very humble boy, desire to grow and safe of his work, he has that extra gear .... go for a cut, best salon in town Thank you Francesco

M. S.

Stefan and Francesco offer an experience that is second to none. I searched London for 18 months trying to find not only the best quality barber, but a place I'm comfortable in. I'm glad to say that I've found that in Avanzato.

S. R.
