I love this place! Crissi was the curly hair stylist that took amazing care of me. Iām really picky about who cuts my hair. But she did the best job! Really listened to what I wanted, offered tips for my curls along the way, I love my style and itās super healthy now. Will be back! ALL of the staff and stylists are amazing. This is your sign that this new salon for sure. -

Avant Garde Salon in Coral Gables exceeded all my expectations! I came in looking for a vibrant red hair color transformation, and they truly delivered. The color is rich, radiant, and exactly what I envisioned. The stylist also gave me a beautiful cut that frames my face perfectly, and the blow-dry left my hair silky, voluminous, and full of life. The team is professional, attentive, and made sure every detail was flawless. If youāre looking for a top-notch salon experience with stunning results, Avant Garde is the place to go! -

I cant recommend Cristina enough! She is an amazing hairstylist with a true gift for making my hair look stunning while keeping it healthy. Ive been seeing her for the past year, and the transformation in my hair has been incredible. Not only has it grown longer, but it also feels stronger and healthier than ever before.Cristina is a true professional, with an eye for detail and a deep understanding of hair care. She always knows exactly what my hair needs, whether itās a trim, color, or treatment, and I leave each appointment feeling fabulous.Beyond her skills, Cristina has such a beautiful and vibrant energy that makes every visit feel like a refreshing experience. She uplifts your mood and makes you feel so at ease. She truly goes above and beyond, and Im so grateful to have found her. -

Justina is an amazing hair colorist! She transformed my hair into this gorgeous red that is not only vibrant and dimensional but is also in extremely healthy shape!! She not only matched the reference photo I showed her, but she made it look even better than I couldāve wanted! A true master of her craft!! Iāve never colored my hair before and now I canāt imagine going back to my natural hair tone!! I highly recommend visiting Justina if youāre in Miami!! Sheās the best at what she does!!Jorge also did my haircut and he chopped off my dead ends and added some new layers to bring my hair back to life!! -

I canāt recommend Jay enough! He lightened my hair by two levels and delivered stunning results. Jay is truly a master of his craftāconfident, skilled, and unafraid to take on a challenge. His expertise and precision are unmatched, and his ability to bring a vision to life is incredible.While the salon itself has a great environmentāwelcoming, stylish, and comfortableāwhat truly makes it exceptional is the professionals they hire and the unique skillsets they bring to the table. Jay is the perfect example of this.Beyond his technical abilities, Jayās energy is absolutely infectious. Heās vibrant, passionate, and a joy to work with. His enthusiasm and creativity are evident in every appointment, and you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. He makes every session fun and inspiring, creating an experience that goes beyond just getting your hair done.Iāve been coming to Jay for about 2-3 years, and he never fails to amaze me. He is a true master stylist/colorist/artist!! :) -

This salon is amazing. I fly from San Francisco to Miami just to get my hair done here. Wouldnāt trust anyone else. Thank you so much, Marcelo! The hosts, lovely people washing your hair (free head massage!), and the most talented stylists are so worth the high price tag. You all are truly amazing, and the essence of you get what you pay for!!! -

I had the pleasure of having Eddie as my hairstylist, and he did an amazing job. With my thin and fine hair, its always a challenge to get a good haircut, but Eddie listened to what I wanted and executed it perfectly. The service cost $160 (plus tip, close to $200 dollars) for a haircut, treatment on my ends, blowout and styling, truly worth every penny! Which by the way they tell you the price right up front so no surprises. I already booked my touch-up appointment with Eddie and highly recommend him for anyone with thin and fine hair! -

This was my first time at the salon. I selected the salon after reading extensive reviews and following posts on IG of the various stylists. My experience confirms why the reviews are consistent!Everyone was very nice. My appointment was scheduled with Jorge. He took his time listening to what I was looking for, my hair condition, his suggestions, and how to best accomplish it. The outcome on the color and style was exactly what I was looking for, and my hair is actually healthy! Im so happy! -

Juan did an amazing job with my balayage and hair cut. I am thrilled with the results. Juan is an incredibly skilled hair professional with an amazing personality! I also love the vibe of the salon, and I always have a great time when I am there. I will certainly continue to come back time and time again! -

I can not rave about this place enough. All of the staff is friendly and welcoming. The first thing I loved is that I was able to have a consultation so Aldo and I could discuss my options after needing my hair fixed. Aldo restored my confidence. He is so skilled and has amazing customer service. I will be returning and would recommend the salon and Aldo to anyone looking for a professional hair stylist with years of experience and knowledge! -

When I went in, I told them I wanted a honey-brown color with well-defined money pieces in the front. I was told we could do this, and a price was shared with me which included this and a cut and style with blowdry. In my opinion, the end result is very streaky and more of a traditional highlight than the blend that was promised, and the front blends into the rest of my hair. It came out quite warm and yellow, which I was told was because of previous color. I wish a better attempt was made to tone this. I was able to tone it a bit with Olaplex at home before coming into work, since it was overly warm and clashed with my natural hair. I included pictures of what I got vs the picture I showed for what I wanted. Besides the color and placement being off, they insisted on cutting the very tips of my hair and I left the salon with damp hair ( I was charged the full amount for a haircut and blowdry styling).Update: I spoke with the very kind owner of the salon, and she offered to fix my hair as a complimentary service. She scheduled me with Justina, and I can confidently say that she did an AMAZING job!!! Ever since then, I have received countless compliments on my new hair. -

Top tier salon with exceptional service. From the start to the finish. My hair has been such an anxiety inducing topic but I felt very comfortable with Andrea and Yuna. Andrea is extremely knowledgeable in hair health and able to teach you about your specific hair needs to prepare you for your hair goals. Zasil is so welcoming and kind as well. Canāt stop speaking about how happy I am to have gone. -

Review 21 (2022-05-07 - Rating: 5)
This was a planned by my boyfriend apt as a Motherās Day surprise. I was completely in the blind about where I was going or what I was going to be doing. When I got there I must say I was scared because I have trust issues with letting just anyone touch my hair. But as I walked in the the ladies at the counter welcomed me like if I was royalty. They knew who I was due to my boyfriend calling and making this a big deal event for me. They quickly took me back to introduce me to my stylist Jaime. She also brought me a glass of white wine since my boyfriend had mentioned how much I like wine to relax. I must say between the welcoming and the glass of wine I was starting to feel at home and I was getting less anxious. Well let me tell you about Jaime. He is amazing!!! He was so accommodating, showed me colors and suggested what he as a professional thought would work best for me. FYI I hadnāt done my hair in over a year and a half. I was a hot mess! So Jaime quickly got to doing his magic and did my hair from start to finish. He took his time doing my balayage. He cut my hair, colored it, washed it and styled it all himself. He did not send me off to anyone else took care of me himself, I loved that!!! Well I had told him no one ever got the color I wanted correct and my hair always ended up being yellowish. He went above and beyond to make my hair exactly what I wanted. I love my hair truly an out of this world experience. I was so happy with my finished hair I almost cried on the phone with my boyfriend. After I was finished they made me feel like a super model and took pictures of me with my new look. I would totally recommend this salon and Jaime any day. I was 100% fully satisfied with my hair. -

I came into Avante Garde salon to have a haircut. My hair was extremely long and I wanted to get it shaped and cleaned up but still keep the length. I have had very bad experiences with salons not listening to me and destroying my hair and I had not been to a salon in about 7 years. Marcelo took the time to listen and set expectations. He gave me the perfect haircut. He listened and kept the length like I asked. Thank you Marcelo you are very talented and I look forward to more haircuts! -

Gio has been my hairstylist for five years, and I couldnāt be happier! He prepared my hair perfectly for my wedding, working over several sessions to keep it healthy with masks and trims that maintained the length and shape I needed for the style I wanted. His meticulous attention to detail and artistry are unmatchedāevery cut and treatment is done with care and precision.Not only is Gio exceptional at his craft, but heās also an amazing person. He makes me feel cared for from the moment I step into the salon until I leave, and our conversations are always a highlight. If youāre looking for a professional who truly loves what he does and cares deeply about his clients, Gio is the one. Thank you for everything, Gio! -

Took me a month to write a review, sorry! I came here after an extremely bad dye job at another salon six months prior had left my hair in an extremely bad shape and me feeling very scared and jumpy about any kind of salon. I had been looking for salons for months trying to find somewhere that could fix it and I saw this place near to my house and decided to give it a try. Walked in and everyone was so nice and attentive. To reassure my nerves Christine suggested I do a consultation with Jorge who would be my stylist before the actual appointment. Everything went wonderfully and I really appreciate the way they tell you how much the services will cost upfront instead of letting you guess at the end. My actual appointment was so enjoyable; they have a selection of drinks available for you to sip while you wait but I didnt have to wait long at all! Jorge was extremely knowledgeable in color and specializes in ginger/copper which is what I wanted. Leonardo was also super attentive when washing and styling my hair. And my hair came out great! It was an ugly faded green at the tips and they managed to even it out to this beautiful ginger color!! It is a bit pricey but to soothe my fears I was willing to pay a little more, and the price does reflect the amazing service and attention you receive at this salon. I will be coming back!! Thank you everyone!! -

It was my first time in the salon and I had a wonderful experience. Andy did my hair and he is just the BEST. He is amazing with hair coloring and one of the thing I love the most about him is that he takes the time to ask you want you want and to answer all your questions! He does an incredible job! I highly recommend it. People in the salon is also super nice and friendly! Thanks -

About 15 years, I have been coming to Avant Garde Salon to get my facials with Evelyn. Iām so happy to have found this place and to have found Evelyn for my facials.

My daughter has wanted to have balayage done on her hair for a few years now. I was very hesitant to have her do this hair treatment since she has Virgin hair. Marcelo was recommended by a friend. Her hair came out beautiful and just how she envisioned it. He took the time to talk to her and see what her vision for her hair was and helped her make the right decision based on her hair type and the fact that it had never been treated. He was very patient and explained the process with her. The final result was beautiful and he also explained to her how to take care of her hair so it would last and not dry out or loose itās color. Thank you Marcelo for a wonderful experience. Will definitely be back. -

Iāve never written a review before but this was necessary. Anthony is hands down the best Iāve ever been to. Iāve never left a salon with what I asked for up until now. I came in with orange streaky hair( from a previous salon), he recommended a balayage with a shadow root and my hair has never looked better. He is thorough, professional, and absolutely phenomenal with hair! The pictures speak volumes. He is the BEST!!! -

I have been living in Miami for over a year now and was hesitant to find a new stylist. I was recommended Avant-Garde Salon & Spa and their stylist, Jay, by a local and it was the best decision. Im glad that I waited! Upon further investigation, Jays Instagram account of his coloring, cutting, and styling skills sold me to make an appointment with him.All of the staff were very welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. I could clearly see the great communication and teamwork they all shared. I had the pleasure of getting my hair done by Jay. He is very sweet and friendly and made sure that I was getting exactly what I wanted. He prioritized my comfort and ensured that I had the best salon experience possible. Jay is incredibly talented and professional. In previous experiences at other salons, I was rushed off or passed on to other stylists so the stylist could tend to their next appointment. I did not experience this with Jay. He was present and focused on achieving the perfect color and style from the initial consultation to the final pictures.I will definitely be returning to this salon for future services and products. Trust that you are in good hands with Jay and Avant-Gardes staff, and youll feel great supporting a small business in Miami! -

Justina is a truly amazing colorist. I was thrilled when I moved from San Francisco to Miami and found out my colorist was moving as well. Itās been 4 years and I would never have another person touch my hair. I have super fine, long hair that is very hard to apply color to in a way that looks natural. I have gone from a full blond to highlights, painting and toning. Lately, Justina has brought me from various shades of blond back to my natural color but better. Itās everything I always wanted my natural hair to look like but with depth and light in the most flattering places. She paints my hair with the most beautiful natural looking result. She has always heard my preferences and guided me in adding color and extensions. She is a master of applying color and I have been thrilled with each application. I have never left unhappy and have recommended her to many different people with various hair textures who have always reported that she really is that good. -

I recently visited Avant-garde Salon and Spa, and I couldnt be more pleased with my experience. I had the pleasure of having my hair cut and styled by Annie, she did a phenomenal job. She listened carefully to what I wanted and executed it perfectly. My haircut is exactly what I envisioned, and the blow dry with curls she did was simply stunning.

I will definitely be returning. I highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for top notch hair services. Thank you guys! -

I had the most amazing highlights and balayage done by Anthony! I was previously on the hunt for the best balayage I could find, as I had so many inconsistent experiences with other top salons that would do either great work, then the next time be careless and do terrible work, and even severely damaged my hair and I lost all my length. We all know it can be very scary to blindly search for a dream hair stylist because it can go so badly, so I did SO much due diligence through reviews and pictures, even their instagrams... to finally see consistency in matching what I wanted for myself.I saw the most perfect, beautiful blonde highlights, blending, placement, and tone pictures....constantly coming from reviews about Anthony! I decided I was ready to take my leap of faith and called the Avant Garde salon and was able to schedule an appointment with him. Honestly the ease of the scheduling and their professionalism was a breathe of fresh air as some of the most high end stylists in this area are so difficult to get responses from or book in a reasonable time frame.Anthony was more than I could have hoped for, not only was his skill level and artistry level beyond exceptional, his personality and care is off the charts. He put a lot of time and energy into studying the pictures and knowing exactly what I wanted, and making sure he delivered it. He even noted how my curls forms and did highlights tailoring to them too. He is the opposite of that uncaring, snobby, rushing, gossipy, Ill do it how I feel like it stylist that sometimes we can dread being in their chair, and feel nervous about what results you end up with. He makes it all pleasant and caring, while giving the best results you can find in the industry. Trust me Ive looked! Honestly other salons charge over $700 for the results I saw him give, because of the level of skill and the time he puts into it. So he is a real gem.Im literally writing this review over 6 months after our appointment because I never write reviews, I forget...Im terrible! But I HAD to finally do this one, and now I can ALSO validate that because his coloring was so amazingly blended, its looking just as fantastic growing out and looking natural 6 months later, I still get tons of compliments on it!Thank you Anthony! See you soon! -

Great hair stylists but expect to dish out $300-400 for color, cut and blow dry. Theyāre not very efficient . I find myself waiting around a lot in between my wash , cut and blow dry since they over book and a stylist is attending to two costumers at one time. The Sunkist are great here but for the cost, the customer service is not very good -

Best hair salon in Miami! Jorge really took care of me and exceeded my expectations. First we had a consultation and he walked me through my hair type and the color I wanted to do for a Balyage/with highlights. He was able to fit me in on the same day and really took his time with it. I was there from about 11am to 3pm. Iām super happy with the final look and service of this salon. This is now my primary salon and going back here every time I need to prime/blow out or even re-color. Thanks Jorge! -

I am a natural blonde, my hair started to darken at the roots about six months ago and I have been considering getting highlights for a long time. So I did a lot of research before finding this salon and selecting my hair colorist. This was my first ever experience with highlights and gloss. I was super nervous going in because I had no idea what to expect, but Fabian and his team put my mind at ease right away! He was kind enough to walk me through the entire process and give me helpful tips along the way as well as specific tips for my hair type. I have naturally straight, full, silky fine hair texture that I have always found difficult to manage. Although I rarely have volume or body, Fabian was able to give me the beautiful voluminous textured hair of my dreams. He made sure that I remained comfortable throughout the entire experience and his team was so gentle and friendly when dealing with my hair, I knew that I had made the right decision by coming here! I have never felt so pampered or well taken care of. Thank you so much to the entire staff at Avant Garde Salon for making me feel relaxed and welcomed in your Salon! -

I loved the results and felt like myself but with bouncier, fuller, better shaped hair. Thank you to this amazing salon. Tip: I didnāt want to pay $165 for a haircut because my hair is so easy to cut. I chose to skip the blow dry/styling and washing and came to the appointment with my hair clean. They only charged me $100 for the haircut. Good tip if youāre on a budget and just need a trim! -

I highly recommend Anthony for anything you need, color, style, cut etc.. He is the best. I have been dying my hair for 7 years and Anthony is the only stylist I have been to that gets it perfectly every time. He is so efficient, a great person, and really cares about the result. Thank you Anthony!! -

Overall what an amazing experience. From the moment I booked my appointment, the attention to detail has been like no other. I was asked to send pictures prior to my appointment and to express my desires. Once I arrived, I was greeted by a friendly face, who made me feel very welcomed. Orisdaisy, who washed my hair was very nice and attentive. Fabian, my hairdresser and stylist did not disappoint. He gave me the best advice. We spoke about short and long term goals for the nourishment and improvement of my thinning hair. I went in with full confidence and I can honestly say, I have found my new home. Christine, thank you for following up with me. You truly have created a special gem there and I am beyond happy to now be a part of it š. -

Today I had the wonderful experience of having my hair done at Avant-Garde Salon by Anthony. My hair has been previously bleached and dyed, so the ends of my hair had lightened quite a bit over the summer, since I last dyed it darker in March (as you can see in the photo). I had an appointment with Anthony for an all over color, haircut, and a blow dry. Anthony exceeded all my expectations with the color of my hair! Its a rich dark brown but not black, exactly what I asked for (pictured). Having suffered a pretty poor haircut prior to my appointment, Anthony saved my hair with a long layered cut that gave body to my limp hair with face framing pieces. I love Anthony and Avant-garde and will definitely be back! -

WOW WOW WOW! I canāt say enough amazing things about this salon. I recently moved to Miami and was looking for a reputable hair salon as I had high expectations from a previous salon I was going to back home. I started researching on Google and came across Avant Garde. The reviews were all positive, so I thought Iād give them a try!When I called to make an appointment, they were so warm over the phone and had no issues making an appointment with one of their more popular stylists, Leandro. I couldnāt be more happier to have been Leandroās client because HE IS THE BEST!! From the moment we met, I knew I was going to be a long time customer. I showed him examples of balayage looks I wanted and he got straight to work. I had color in my hair from a previous grow out, so he had to color correct everything. I spent 6 hours at the salon and the result was WAY more than what I had expected! I wanted to cry because my hair had never looking more amazing.If youāre looking for an amazing salon in Miami, GO HERE! All of the stylists are so warm and welcoming and I absolutely loved the fun environment. I have my second appointment coming up soon and I canāt wait! Ask for Leandro if you want an amazing balayage! š -

I will never run out of compliments for Anthony who has been my hair stylist at Avant Garde for years. My hair was brittle & dry I first meet him. Now itās healthy, bouncy grew to the length I wanted & I credit it all to Anthony. He is AMAZINGGGGG with color & always does a outstanding job touching up my high lights. He gives perfect cuts wether I want a trim or layers, & his blow dries are out of this world. Straight or waves, he always styles my hair gorgeous no matter what look Iām going for. Not to forget the gloss treatment which Iām obsessed with. He is the only person I trust with my hair, go do your with him you wonāt regret it. -

I visited Avant-Garden Salon last Saturday with Rafael, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. Rafaels expertise truly shines through in his work, as I left with the best hair Ive ever had. His attention to detail and skillful technique transformed my hair into a masterpiece. Not only was the result stunning, but the price was also very reasonable. Yasel, who assisted Rafael, provided excellent support, making the entire visit enjoyable with his friendly demeanor and attention to detail. Additionally, their complimentary coffee was a delightful touch. I wholeheartedly recommend this salon, especially with Rafael and Yasel leading the way! -

After a year of searching for the right salon, and not letting anyone touch my hair for fear of the results, I have finally found my new hairdresser and salonI absolutely love my hair Juan, my hairdresser, was a doll! He made me feel comfortable right from the start. He took his time during our consultation to make sure he understood what I wanted and what I like. He also explained everything to me along the way. I also appreciated the form I had to sign at the beginning detailing the cost of all the services I was going to have... Many times its not until the end that you find out the damage But I feel that letting clients know upfront prevents any issues or surprises from arising later on.I must also mention Leo. He washed the dye out of my hair. His scalp massage was amazing as well as his attention to detail! I noticed he was very careful not to soak my face with water or hike rinsing it and gently removed any stains the dye left around the scalp area.On multiple occasions various staff members offered me something to drink. I only wish they had decaf cappuccino because they looked so good but caffeine and I are not friendsIf youre looking for exceptional service and attention to detail at a comparable price, check out Avant Garde Salon and Spa! -

I absolutely love this place! I have been here a couple of times to do big jobs like bleaching and balayages but I have recently decided to fully switch to them after this amazing experience. I went to them because I had gotten a botched hair cut somewhere else and wanted to fix it. Yasel was available last minute and he was so attentive, understanding, and knowledgeable. He was quick but thorough and saved my hair like a true expert. I went in with my hair choppy and in layers that looked terrible but in the end he had me with cute and flirty curls that highlighted my hair in the best way possible. Yasel specifically was incredible but everyone here is a top notch professional. I cannot stress how good this place is! I recommend it to anyone that wants to leave satisfied every time ā¤ļø -

As someone whos super loyal to her stylist/colorist in NYC, I am always terrified when I have to see someone new during my travels. I found Avant-garde on Google, and chose the salon because of their prompt response time and stellar views. (I had called two other salons who didnt get back to me for DAYS!).Justina, my colorist, was outstanding in her skill and passionate about her craft. I instantly felt comforted and secure in knowing that I was, indeed, in the best of hands.I find myself in Coral Gables often because of family, and I can rest assured knowing that if my hair needs any sort of touch-up, Justina is just a few minutes away! -

This is by far the best salon I have been to in Miami. I always had a hard time finding a hair salon that I liked and I am so happy that I found it here.Annie did my hair cut and blow dry. She was so incredibly nice and made me feel comfortable. I have always been insecure about my hair and she addressed all my concerns and listened to me. She educated me on my hair type and suggested the haircut that was best for me (no hair stylist has ever done that for me). My hair has never looked this good or felt this healthy before I met Annie.I also had a consultation with Andy for hair botox/soft keratin since I have very frizzy hair and she was so nice and informed me about the process and my hair concerns. I didnāt feel pressured to do the treatment but I do plan on going back. She even gave me a sample which no salon has ever done.I cannot thank both of them enough for their kindness and setting on the path of hitting my hair goals and I look forward to seeing both of them in the future. -

I had an exceptional experience at Avant Garde, thanks to Farrah, my hair colorist. The ambiance of the salon is both luxurious and professional, creating a perfect environment for relaxation and pampering. The entire team is welcoming and generous, making you feel at home from the moment you step in.Farrahs skill and attention to detail are truly remarkable. She is genuinely eager to help you achieve your dream shade of blonde, and she listens to your preferences with great care. It is rare to find a stylist who prioritizes your vision over their own, but Farrah does just that.Her effectiveness is unparalleled. Farrah managed to create a color that was twice as nice as what I had before, and she did it in half the time it used to take with my previous colorists. Her combination of efficiency and quality is truly impressive. If you are looking for a top-notch hair colorist who delivers outstanding results, look no further than Farrah at Avant Garde Salon! -

Iāve been looking for a salon that can do blonde highlights since I moved here from New York. It took me 8 months, a lot of trial and error, but Iām BEYOND pleased with my hair.From the moment I walked into the salon, I was happy. Christine, at the front desk, greeted me and was extremely kind and welcoming. It was the perfect way to start my appointment!!! Everyone at Avant-Garde was professional and made me feel at home. From Daniele and Leonardo to my superstar hairstylist.I went to Farrah, who is undoubtedly talented. My blonde highlights havenāt looked this great in YEARS!!! She used a ton of foils, which I loved and she was super fast too! I was in and out in two hours!! I had a full head of highlights, a toner and base bump (to fix my awful brassy color from previous stylists) and she blew out my hair, finishing it off with a few waves. I am so relieved and happy to have FINALLY found my new hair stylist at my new go-to salon. -

I always forget to write reviews, but I had to make sure I wrote one for Avant Garde. They did not ask me, they are just so great I felt like I needed to. Everyone at this salon is amazing! Moving from NYC to Miami I was worried about finding my go to place for my hair. I tried a few places in the area and this is by far my favorite salon. Marcelo has been doing my hair extensions and color for about a year and a half and he is amazing. He really is an artist! He cares about not only making your hair look absolutely gorgeous, but also the overall health of your hair as well. My hair even without the extensions in is the longest itās ever been. Alex does my keratin and does such a great job. He is also such a pleasure to chat with. The time always flies when he is doing my hair. Same with many of the other people that work there. Andrea frequently blows out and styles my hair and she is so fun to sit and chat with. I love how she styles my hair. Evelyn does my eyebrows and does a great job. Christine and everyone at the front desk are always accommodating and professional. I could go on naming other amazing staff at the salon, but it is a long list. I can not say enough great things about this salon. The prices arenāt cheap, but they are fair and trust me they do a phenomenal job and well worth the money! -

BEST SALON IN MIAMI! I am from CT and have struggled to find a good hair salon in Miami for 2 years now. I have very fine, thin, damaged blonde hair.Farrah was an absolute sweetheart and she colored my hair so quickly and beautifully! She gave me great hair advice as well.The intern (I did not get her name, taller, slimmer girl) was amazing. She literally gave me a head and neck massage at the sink.To top it off, Gio and his amazing energy gave me a beautiful haircut along with samples of products he recommends!Everything was amazing.

Absolutely loved this place! I did a Brazilian straightening with Jamal, amazing results! And my brother dyed his hair from black to platinum with Paola - it looked incredible! Sheās very thorough!But the thing I want to highlight is youāre surrounded by good people! It felt like they were just one big family. Helping each other with other clients when needed, showing results to one another, cheering when someone did a great job, even borrowing phones to take good photos :)Lastly, Marilyn is great at communicating and following up with clients prior to their appointments and when they are at the salon! Amazing place all around! -

Amazing experience today at Avant Garde Salon and spa. I came in today short notice and they got me in with Marcelo he is great at blow drying pixie hair cuts. I have short hair. He suggested a purple shampoo. I was impressed with the high quality products at the salon. The young man who washed my hair did a great job and it was very relaxing. Marcelo and I had such wonderful conversation. If you are ever in coral gables please stop by and get a blow out here. -

Jorge did an amazing job with my balayage and haircut! My color feels bright and fresh and ready for summer.

I think Iāve found my new home! This is now my third time at Avant Garde with Anthony as my stylist! was on the hunt for a new stylist for quite some time after mine of many years relocated out of the country. I canāt be more happy with his work- amazing with color! Iāve done balayage cut and blower and heās finally reached the desired look Iāve been trying to achieve for quite some time. He knows his craft and you can sit down at his chair and let him work his magic blindly.Everyone there seems to be good from what Iāve seen but his overall approach to hair care and color really meets me and my hair goals/ needs.

This place has such an amazing owner. Christine cares about her clientele. She goes out of her way, to make sure they absolutely love their new look. I appreciate her customer service. She is kind, patient, caring, and just a beautiful person all around. My Stylist Ethan did an amazing job on my hair. I colored it for the 1st time and it came out a true success. I am thankful for the work he did. My hair is fine and usually just lays flat. The blow out he did, gave me volume I never knew I had. I will be going back to add some extensions Friday. This will be my new salon HOME. I definitely would recommend. -

Avant Garde Salon has been a true blessing in my life. I found them almost 3 years ago and I would never go anywhere else. They are so efficient with their work and make sure to take their time with as much detail to have you leaving here happy and satisfied! Coming from someone who has super curly and thick hair, I would recommend everyone to come here. I have cut my hair, blow dried, and done balayage and they never fail to disappoint. Jamal is amazing and has always left my hair beautiful with his blow dry and cut. Juan is the best color stylist I have ever known to do hair. The owner is an absolute angel and has taken care of me every time, no issues and no complaints. Overall, Avant Garde is the salon you want to choose and you wont regret it! -

First of all....Vanessa has to be one of the most naturally stunning women Ive ever seen! Seriously, she should literally be a model! On top of that she was SO kind and patient, an angel. I never felt rushed, forgotten in a chair somewhere or hesitant. She was clear on the pricing and what was best for my hair and what I wanted. Everyone was very welcoming, professional and attentive, offering water, coffees etc... I had a wonderful experience and cant wait to come back in 3 months. I was so relieved because not everyone can work with black hair with box dye on it but Vanessa was a magician and the balayage she did was amazing, I didnt smell any harsh a chemicals, my scalp doesnt feel dry, itchy or burnt, perfect cut and styling. So happy with how everything came out. Worth every penny!! -

I got a beautiful haircut and all my expectations (pressure, the temperature of the water, etc.) were met. A big thank you to Juan and Christine! šÆšÆOriginal: Donāt get me wrong, my hair did end up looking fantastic, BUTā¦I came for a very simple haircut (just to cut length) and had to pay $150. Whatever, Iām happy to pay for great service, but the person who was washing my hair didnāt care about my comfort at all. Instead of massaging shampoo, it felt like he was trying to take my skin off. The hairdresser did a good job, but he was also so harsh. I ended up losing so much more hair than I planned to. He pulled my hair, he didnāt care about being careful with mini-knots. When it came to styling my hair, I asked for wavy hair. He used too high of a temperature for the curler. He also almost burned the skin on the back of my head. I ended up smelling like burned hair all day today. The result was amazing, but I doubt I will come back. Very sad, because I remember my first time in this salon wasnāt as bad as this one. -

This salon is amazing, from staff to services. I was treated as though I was their most important customer. I came to this shop with what I thought was a problem that couldnāt be fixed. The receptionist listen to me and said donāt worry we have a stylist that specializes in fixing color. The salon is fantastic with teamwork. Your never just sitting there waiting, someone always checks to make sure youāre comfortable asking if you need a drink.The atmosphere is vibrant I loved it.Elena was my stylist she is a great artist she is knowledgeable, talented and has empathy for people. I didnāt even have a picture of what I looked like before my disastrous experience with another salon.But I left Avant-garde Salon with my hair back to normal and it looked better than itās looked in years.They specialize in every service imaginable. I will never go anywhere else in Miami.
