    Jules at Retro Salon is an absolute miracle worker. She transformed my over processed, bleached, lifeless, dull two toned brassy hair into what you see in the after photos below. My hair looks smells and feels amazing. She listened to my concerns and was able to give me the style/color no one has been able to for the past six years. The salon has a fun, welcoming vibe. The staff is all friendly and hospitable. Jules assistant, Maddie is also extremely talented and knowledgeable. The scalp massage was an added bonus. Ive come to the salon for washes & styles and am never disappointed.

    I recently made a three-hour journey to Jewels at Retro Hair Salon and I can confidently say it was completely worthwhile! Her expertise in transforming my hair to a stunning blonde shade left me beyond satisfied. Her attention to detail and dedication to understanding my preferences truly impressed me. If you’re searching for a hairstylist who can work wonders with hair color and genuinely cares about her clients, Jewels is an absolute gem. I highly recommend her services and wouldn’t hesitate to make the long drive again.

    This salon is amazing! Everybody is nice and knowledgeable. I wanted to change my hair color and Emily was my stylist. I showed her a few pictures of what I wanted, she worked her magic and my hair I so Beautiful right now! I feel pretty and excited to have gotten what I wanted. Emily was able to understand my vision and made it happened. I went to the salon with my daughter, she was welcomed and treated with love and respect. I am making this salon my go to place for hair. I’m always nervous about getting my hair done at new places but Retro Salon was a completely positive experience! 100% recommended! Thank you Emily!

    Maddie was super friendly and did a great job on my cut! The salon was very cute and clean.

  • Review 8 (2022-11-23 - Rating: 5)

    You know your hairstylist did a fantastic job when the husband says he loves it! Tried this place for the first time today for a haircut for my son and I. Super friendly and loved the idea that that my stylist came up for my hair. She held a great conversation and had great future ideas for my hair. Trust me I needed a new makeover! My son even loved his haircut, too. Prices were reasonable and worth it. Already booked my next hair appointment for coloring and cant wait to see the outcome of that. Thank you again for great service!

  • Review 9 (2022-06-12 - Rating: 5)

    I have to give a shout out to Jewels, she is AMAZING. As is true for most women, I have seen many many hairstylists throughout the years. I can count on one hand the ones that I have felt an attachment to. The ones that are special and outstanding just “get” your hair and what looks best without you having to say much. It’s experience plus instinct and having a special gift. Jewels has it and I’m giving her the rare accolade of “Hair Whisperer” status. Thanks Jewels!

  • Review 10 (2024-05-15 - Rating: 5)

    Barbara is extremely knowledgeable. She shared steps to promote “good health” of my elderly nails/feet! I will return for both manicures and pedicures.

  • Review 11 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    Hands down I trust no one else with my hair other than Jewels! If you want excellent color and a great cut every time, shes your girl! Shes been in the industry for 18 yrs and she is always on the newest trends. I have never been disappointed. Best stylist ever!

  • Review 12 (2023-04-26 - Rating: 5)

    Shoutout to Sou who gave me gorgeous color and a phenomenal haircut! My goal was to cover up my blonde balayage, return to my natural color, and give my hairstyle a refresh with a cut. Sou took her time to explain what products I should use to keep my hair moisturized and give it the TLC needed before I get married next spring. Seriously, her expertise and care with clients is 10 out of 10. Thanks for being so kind, warm and informative!

  • Review 13 (2018-01-15 - Rating: 5)

    Kaci has been my stylist for 5 plus years and she always has me looking fabulous. Very professional and reliable with my scheduled appointments. On my wedding day she dedicated her whole day to making me a beautiful bride and that was on a Sunday. The staff at Retro Salon is awesome and the vibe in the salon is always positive. I love this salon and my stylist, I wouldn’t trade it in for any other.

  • Review 14 (2017-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    Jewels is amazing ! She brought life back to my hair ! I go back and forth from highlights to black and she always makes it look awesome. She has also styled my hair for weddings and she is always really creative and makes me look amazing. She does make up too which always comes out great. I dont trust anyone else !

  • Review 15 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    Jewels has been doing my hair for over 7 years now and just recently did my hair for my wedding. She is the absolute BEST stylist I have ever been to, for cut, color, and special occasion. Highly recommend her!

  • Review 16 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    Jewels is probably the best colorist I have ever been to. Whether you need gray coverage, highlights or purple and pink streaks, shes your girl! I should know, i have had all three at one time or another. She also makes every visit a pleasant experience, like she is your best friend.

  • Review 17 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    My girlfriend recommended Kat at Retro Salon about two years ago. I had been through three other salons and never felt at home. I have short thick curly hair that can be unruly. I was so impressed by the care and consideration Kat took when sitting with me and diacussing my options. She is spectacular as what she does, meticulous at best!! Thank you Kat for all your hard work and dedication..

  • Review 18 (2017-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    Ive been getting my hair done by Jewels for a decade! Although I am probably the most difficult of clients and always testing her, there isnt a better stylist-colorist-artist to handle my off-the-wall requests. The team and environment is awesome and I refer people all of the time because of the compliments I get.

  • Review 19 (2017-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    By far Kat has been the best stylist I have ever been to. I have A LOT of hair and most stylists Ive been to have been intimidated because of this. Not Kat, she jumped right in and made sure I felt comfortable with her and does a fantastic job. She is the best!!

  • Review 20 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    Had my hair cut and colored by Jewels and her work was fabulous! I have brown hair and wanted blue peekaboo put in and the color was so vibrant and lasted a lot longer than I thought it would. Highly highly recommend her as a stylist!

  • Review 21 (2024-01-24 - Rating: 5)

    I got my hair darker and Madeline made my experience very good, she is awesome. Ask for her! Thank you Madeline.

  • Review 22 (2019-04-01 - Rating: 5)

    Kat is my gal. She is super talented with color, extensions, an make-up for special events. I walk out of the salon, every time, feeling like a super star. I do a weekly blowout as well because my hair is too long to do myself. Kat does my normal services as well cut/color/extensions. The salon atmosphere is fun, positive, and upbeat. Check it out for yourself!

  • Review 23 (2022-10-22 - Rating: 5)

    I love the new location its fresh and its bright with the windows it was nice to feel the sunshine while getting a haircut.I have Sou for hairdresser and shes just so good what she does and everyone else there is really nic, its a very pleasant environment. I drive 45 minutes just to go there, Im so glad I chose them from Google and Google reviews

  • Review 24 (2023-04-25 - Rating: 5)

    My son had a bad haircut from another barber in the morningCalled Retro Salon, and Ms Sou came to save the day. His haircut was so much better after Ms Sou managed to fix a botched haircut from another barber!My son left very happy! Thanks Ms Sou! Will definitely come back again!

  • Review 25 (2017-04-23 - Rating: 5)

    Jewels was recommended by two friends of mine over a year ago and all I can say is - she is amazing and can do miracles! I wont go to another hairdresser as long as she does hair! She is the most professional , talented and knowledgeable hairdresser I know! 10 ✨ from me ❤️❤️

  • Review 26 (2017-04-23 - Rating: 5)

    Ive been going to Retro Salon since I was in the 5th grade, the service is amazing and every stylist has there own way of making every client feel beautiful. Theyre a family and the salon makes you feel welcomed and loved. Definitely one of the best salons Ive ever been to. Jewels is my favorite stylist and I always leave the salon 100% satisfied with my hair, Highly recommend Retro.

  • Review 27 (2018-11-28 - Rating: 5)

    I wish I could give more than 5 stars! I went in for a haircut this afternoon after 2 years of not having one. I went in not knowing exactly what I wanted which made me nervous..after speaking with My stylist, Jewels for just a few minutes (and me being a confused mess) She suggested a short edgy haircut that sounded amazing.... It came out more than amazing! I barely even gave her ideas of what I wanted and It’s as though she read my mind! Not only was she super skilled but SO friendly and inviting as well as the rest of the staff. Just a great vibe overall here. I’m so happy I found Retro and I will definitely be back!

  • Review 28 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    I moved here from CT and had a lot of trouble finding a stylist who understood curly hair. I finally got lucky when a friend referred me to Kat! She not only gave me the first amazing haircut I got since moving to Tampa, but she also understood me as a person which resulted in some of the dopest haircuts Ive EVER had! I often receive compliments about my hair from complete strangers. No exaggeration! Kat is a genuine, kind soul who has a real passion for her artistry, the business, and truly wants the best outcome for her clients.

  • Review 29 (2017-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    My experience at the Retro Salon was truly amazing. My older sister was actually the client, and me being very interested in hair I tagged along. My sisters vibrant makeover turned out great and i learned a lot and had great conversation with all the stylists. Especially, my sisters stylist Kat!

  • Review 30 (2017-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    Kat Salazar is simply amazing. Words can not explain how amazing she truly is. She is always willing to take a risk but not at the risk of damaging your hair. She will never do anything to your hair just because you want it. She is always honest and always does amazing work. I am so glad that I found her. She has a client and friend for life!!

  • Review 31 (2014-09-24 - Rating: 5)

    I have had so many bad experiences with hair salons and women chopping off my hair and telling me its what you needed. So going to Retro Salon i was a little nervous, thinking this place would be like every other. When i walked in i was greeted with a smile and immediately asked if i was thirsty or wanted anything. You defiantly dont get customer service like that in many places. The women that did my hair her name was Kat she also greeted me with a smile and when she asked what i came in for. I could tell she was really listening to what i wanted and gave me feedback on what she thought would work and she had ideas of what would make it look even better. I have dark hair and it was pretty long so i wanted to cut it to a length where is was still pretty long but healthy and get an ombre done. When i saw my hair it was what i wanted but so much better!!! I will never go to another salon or another person to do my hair. She also gave me tips and names of products to use to keep my hair looking healthy and for my now blonde ends to not get dry. If you are looking for a new salon or someone you can trust to do you hair you need to check out Kat Salazar... I promise you will leave looking and feeling like a million bucks!!

  • Review 32 (2017-04-23 - Rating: 5)

    Jewels is an AMAZING, talented hairstylist! I have been going to her for years and would not go anywhere else. Everyone at Retro always makes me feel welcomed when from the moment I walk in till i walk out!

  • Review 33 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    After having a traumatic hair experience, i was recommended to Retro Salon. Walking in, I knew this was exactly where I needed to be. The Staff was so welcoming and friendly. Kat is a hair goddess! She was completely honest with me and my disasterous hair. She took the time to explain everything which is what I loved! I walked out of there feeling so fierce! Thank you Kat and Retro Salon. I finally found a wonderful place!

  • Review 34 (2017-04-30 - Rating: 5)

    I can finally say I found a stylist who knows how to manage my hair! Kaci does a wonderful job at keeping my hair healthy and always very professional. If you want quality service book an appointment with Kaci at Retro salon studios.

  • Review 35 (2018-03-20 - Rating: 5)

    I have been going to Kaci for over 10 years and wont go anywhere else! She is dedicated to hair care and customer service. She gets me out of my comfort zone with my hair styles and takes her time to make sure I receive great results!Highly recommend Kaci and will continue to be a loyal customer!

  • Review 36 (2017-11-02 - Rating: 5)

    Ok let me just say that Kaci made me feel morecomfortable than any other hairdresser I’ve ever met! She knows a lot about curly hair and gave me great advice, a great deva cut, and an overall amazing experience! She even has her own private room which is so nice, and the price is better than any other haircut I’ve ever had! Too amazing for words. Seriously. I’ll be back as long as Kaci is working here!

  • Review 37 (2018-01-14 - Rating: 5)

    I have been going to Kaci at Retro Salon for over a year! She does amazing work& truly cares about the clients hair! The products that are used in the salon are top notch & the service you receive not only from your stylist & the entire staff is of superior quality! I can’t say enough about the great stylist at Retro Salon & of course my stylist Kaci!! 😁👍🏼

  • Review 38 (2021-03-28 - Rating: 5)

    Amy Neal is an amazing Hair artist!! Its hard to trust someone with your hair when youre a woman who believes your hair is your best feature. Take a chance you wont be disappointed and shes relatable and super fun!

  • Review 39 (2015-07-08 - Rating: 5)

    These people, thankfully, know what theyre doing. Theyve treated me wonderfully over the years; it feels like I belong to a family rather than just some people who fix my hair! And as for that--Elvis, the stylist I go to, is not only great at what he does, but a terrific person inside and out. This place is special. Definitely give it a go!

  • Review 40 (2017-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    I have been going to Kaci for three years now and have had an amazing experience. She is extremely talented, gifted, and efficient with her styling. I highly recommend Kaci, especially if you are a woman of color, and she will exceed your expectations every time!

  • Review 41 (2017-04-30 - Rating: 5)

    Jewels is amazing! she has been doing my hair for years and I wont go anywhere else! Every cut and color turns out amazing!!

  • Review 42 (2019-06-13 - Rating: 5)

    In my professional career I have had to move a great deal. The hardest part is finding someone you trust with your hair. It took me a year to find Elvis and he was worth the search. He is gifted at his craft and has a passion for it. He took a rather description of what I wanted and made it happen. You would be hard pressed to find someone more talented. Additionally, you will find the staff gracious and the space inviting. It is my privilege to visit Retro every 2 weeks and it is always the highlight of my day.

  • Review 43 (2017-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    I love Kat! She is an amazing stylist and always puts a smile on my face with any hairstyle she does. From coloring to cutting my hair I trust Kat to do something wonderful!

    Kindal Is another level of professional, it does not matter what idea I come up with she truly makes it happen. I have been her client for about 6 or 7 years and I change hair styles quite often, all I have to do is show her a picture and Boom! She delivers it! Worth every penny

  • Review 49 (2017-04-23 - Rating: 5)
