A 45-minute scenic drive across the Chilterns — and worth every minute.
Wisteria Avenue is an independent hair salon in Abingdon, around 45 minutes from Henley-on-Thames via country roads across the Chilterns. It's a genuine drive — and most Henley clients make a half-day of it.
The salon is on East St. Helen Street in a Grade II Listed building, established 2018, with 4.8 stars from over 645 Google reviews. We specialise in colour, curly hair, perms, hair systems and the kind of work that needs time taken over it.
For our Henley regulars, the drive is part of the appointment — a scenic stretch across the Chilterns, lunch in Abingdon, a thorough consultation. Most book us for specialist or occasion work rather than routine cuts. For something that matters, it's worth the trip.

"My son is autistic with sensory issues. Anya was friendly and incredibly patient with him in a separate room away from the noise. The most relaxed he has ever been having his hair cut."
"My hair was yellow and blonde from a previous hairdresser's errors. Tracey has totally transformed it back into a lovely blonde and platinum. I can't thank her enough."
"Took in a reference pic for a wolf cut — the stylist took time to discuss how it would work for me, and kept referring decisions back to me throughout the cut. Absolutely first class experience."
"What a refreshing experience! I had a first-time balayage by Anya. She knew so much about her trade and gave me the best makeover. I keep getting compliments about my hair."
