Avant Garde is a salon and more; it's also a spa, a holistic center and a cosmetology academy. In addition to its professional haircut services, Avant Garde hosts classes and workshops and offers a 1,500-hour course to help amateur cosmetologists work toward a Connecticut license.
Some topics of the classes and workshops at Avant Garde are guided meditation, Reiki, physic readings, angel card readings and hypnotherapy.
Avant Garde shares a building with the Hole-in-the-Wall Deli.
