    Boutique style hair salon with talented Colorists/ stylists. I decided to try out the salon after seeing gorgeous photos on their Instagram feeds. I reached out as instructed on IG and was able to secure an appointment with Lily (co-owner)a few weeks in advance - $50.00 non refundable deposit is required to secure an appointment and it is added towards the total cost at the end . The salon itself is very cute and luckily when I went it wasn't too busy there were only 2 clients being worked on. I was also really happy that right on the side of the salon there was plenty of street parking which isn't always the case in Coral Gables. When it was my turn to sit in the comfy black revolving chair , I got to talk to Lily about what I was trying to achieve I showed her inspo photos and she was totally cool with that. Overall I was happy with the final result (they dry and style your hair at the end and take photos in the beauty light area) The result was a few shades darker than what I had hoped for and even though it looked nice I can't say it's fully what I wanted, which kinda sucks especially when your are paying a good amount. That being said you can really tell they care about the little details , like adorable hot pink hair bleach foil , plush pillows in the waiting area and an all around lovely decor- Bleach & Blush makes the experience worthwhile.

    Beautiful salon! I made a last minute appointment with Lily and they were very prompt in responding and accommodating. Lily and her team make the dream work! I think that the price you pay here is reasonable considering you leave with amazing healthy hair. They sell TIGI products and Lily was very helpful in recommending what products I needed to take care of my hair. Will definitely be back!!

    I found Bleach and Blush on Instagram and was excited to have found a new salon I could potentially do all of my services with. I immediately reached out via text message (as instructed). I texted not only one, but two numbers for two stylists at the same salon. They responded to my initial message, asking for a photo of my hair and photos of what I'd like to have done. I responded with that info and then radio silence. I texted again, and nothing. I sent another message four days later. No response. I had given up already. An additional two days later, they finally replied... asking me the exact same thing (to send them a photo of my hair with what I want done). Ok... I was still looking for a stylist so I sent them the photos for a second time. They finally scheduled me to come in just to look at the health of my hair. Parking at this location is horrible. It's only street parking and when I went I spent 10 minutes trying to find an empty spot to park in. I finally found one, paid for the parking, and had to walk a couple of blocks to the salon. The salon itself is underwhelming and the receptionist was just O.K. I sat down to wait for the stylist. I was expecting to be offered water or anything while I waited, but nothing. I waited for a while despite having a scheduled time to come in (though I was 10 minutes late because of the parking situation). Overall service was careless. I did not get good vibes from this place. After two minutes of talking to the stylist, they found availability for an appointment and informed me they take a $50 deposit just to make the appointment. After all of the radio silence, parking inconvenience, waiting, and bad vibes, I decided to listen to my gut and didn't book the appointment. I didn't have any services done at this salon simply because of the lackluster experience I had with them beforehand. If they want new customers they need to be responsive and friendly.

    Uneven "long bangs"/layers

    Don't be fooled by the instagram following and cute photos. My original appointment was for 2 pm and a week before I was *told* to come in at 1. I did just that, and arrived at 1... I was surprised/annoyed when I had to wait for an hour to be attended to. All the while, my metered parking was ticking away. I was apt to let it go when I finally sat in the chair and the stylist was apologetic and warm. I described what I wanted to achieve, my previous hair mishaps, and therefore what I wanted to avoid - I even showed photos to make up for whatever my words could not describe. It seemed like we were on the same page. I asked for "dimensional brunette" and walked out feeling like Morticia Adams - my consolation was that it might lighten up after a few washes. I asked for layers starting from long bangs... I got long uneven chopped bangs and uneven and unblended layers. The layers look like botched stair steps. Right after the blow dry (that I paid extra for, thankfully, I guess) I noticed that my hair was cut unevenly. The stylist "corrected" it - too bad I found more uneven hairs once I got home. Not to mention the dye stains I had on my forehead once I left. If your hair style is not Instagram worthy it doesn't seem as if you're attention worthy either. You'll be rushed in and rushed out - while the girls with the cool colors will be doted on. Also: keep in mind if you pay a $50 deposit for your appointment make sure it gets applied to your services. Mine was not and I had to get a refund. It took a few days, and although they were nice about it, it was inconvenient (set up a PayPal & get the money transferred). Parking is only paid/metered street parking. The maximum is for two hours and you can only renew your parking after about a 15 minute wait period. I'm not sure about you, but I wasn't thrilled about risking getting a parking ticket, even though to them the ticket is "like super cheap" and usually nobody is monitoring it anyway. Especially since an hour of my parking time was eaten up by sitting and waiting. Just a peeve of mine and telling of business practices... There was one client in particular, who I guess was quite difficult, the roasting session began as soon as she stepped out of the salon. My overall experience was not professional at all. I would not return.

    AFTER done by Emily !!! Different lighting

    I have been nonstop talking about my hair and my visit to this salon because I just can't get over how amazingly talented Emily is and how she SAVED MY HAIR. (See photos) Emily is a literal angel sent from heaven because I really just can't thank her enough for her effort, dedication, and willingness to help me with my hair correction. Every single hair stylist in this salon is amazing and I witnessed that having been at the salon for most of the day and I saw the transformations they did with their clients, they're all amazing. Please take a look at the before photo, which was NOT DONE at Bleach and Blush and then the AFTER photo was and it's PERFECT!!!

    Purple hair done by Lily

    I've visited Bleach and Blush 4 times and I've left happy each time. All 4 times I've done my hair with Lily. I've texted to make an appointment and have received a response within hours and they've been able to accommodate me each time (I do book far in advanced though). Each time I walk in, they've all been very welcoming and offer you beverages and snacks. Lily is very down to earth and realistic when you show her what look you want to achieve. From the get-go she tells you if it's possible or not and what in the long run is the healthier route to take. If I have a million questions, she'll answer each one of them. She'll recommend products for you and she recommended a shampoo and conditioner that has legit saved my hair and brought it back to life-- TIGI Copyright! The salon is very cute and girly-- love the quotes on the mirrors. It's also kept clean. They have complimentary beverages and snacks. They don't have a parking lot but there is street parking and I've been able to find parking each time. Pricing is fair and products used are high end. I will continue to visit Lily and I trust her 100% with my hair.

    I have been following lily on Instagram for almost a year and I've been contemplating whether or not to get rid of my black hair and attempt to go lighter. I finally made up my mind and made an appointment 2-3 months back in advance and gave the required $50 deposit that new clients have to give in order to make the appointment. I was very nervous thinking i was not going to be satisfied knowing myself. The process took about 5 hours but lily was very friendly and time went by faster than i thought. She also recommended great products to keep my hair in good shape. This was the finished product, I was extremely impressed at how my hair turned out. I will definitely be back again for my second session! I added some before & after pictures as well

    Best salon I have ever been too! Lily my stylist + all the girls are very professional and prompt. They always take their time with each client to make sure the client gets what they want. They do extraordinary make up, AMAZING hair, and treat you not only like a customer but like a friend. I enjoy coming here and so does my hair ;-) A big thank you to Lily for being so talented and making me feel beautiful!

    She turned purple to silky gold.
    Jessica S.

    Honestly surprised there are any negative reviews. i've been coming here for two years and have always left happy as a clam. Lily is very friendly and humble. Her whole staff is so sweet and welcoming I always feel like i'm surrounded with friends. Parking is a bit annoying as it is street but I always find a space right away. The salon is so cute and quaint. Not to mention everything Lily touches turns to perfection. Amazing hairdresser and person. I have nothing bad to say and always suggest her to all my friends.

    I had an appointment with Lily to fix my hair after two years without touching it. I had a balayage done before (not with her) but I never did any touch ups, causing my hair to be yellow at the ends and dark at the top. Well, let the pics speak for itself, SHE FIXED EVERYTHING! She's so down to earth, keeps you entertained with a great conversation through the whole process and gives you product recommendations after. The other ladies are angels too, and let me tell you when one of them washed my hair, she did an amazing scalp massage, I almost died of happiness. I was watching all the other hairdressers jobs on their clients and they are all so talented. I'm a very happy client and I will be coming back every three months to do my touch up.

    Lily working her magic again. Blue/purple midnight hair. I absolutely love my new look!

    I absolutely love all the ladies at bleach and blush. Everyone treats me so special and the atmosphere with the other clients is so friendly and relaxing. I always end up making new friends when I visit. On top of the good environment, the ladies provide excellent service and are very attentive. I get offered cookies, pretzels, popcorn, wine, coke, sprite, chocolate and coffee every time I go. I have difficult hair and somehow they always manage to make it look healthy, soft, shiny and bouncy by the end of my appointment. Highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for fun colors. She's sweet, caring and always ready to help me achieve my hair goals. However, all the girls are excellent! Ms. Lisandra does some really amazing work too and her appointments tend to be available sooner than Lily's if you're in a rush, I'm thinking of trying her next. Some pro tips to help you ladies out: -bring pictures, it helps you and your stylist be on the same page -if you have a lot of hair it will take a lot of time -parking is by meter but I've always been able to find a spot without any issues -voice your corners, staff can't help you if they don't know you have a problem -sit back and relax while staff help you achieve your hair goals.

    I have had my hair done by Priscilla and Lily and I loved the results on all my visits! Very nice staff, professional and super clean space- not to mention so pretty. I would definitely recommend for you to get your hair done with them if you haven't done so already

    Ana S.

    I had never dyed my hair before and I saw lily's work on instagram and booked my reservation for a balayage. The salon is super cute and everyone was super nice. Lily did a great job, I absolutely loved how my hair came out. I took about 4 hours for my service but it didn't feel that long. Overall I loved my experience! Definitely would recommend!!

    Five stars, no hesitation. Avant-Garde Salon & Spa feels…read morelike a small escape hatch from reality. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is calm, polished, and quietly confident. The staff actually listens. Not the nod-and-do-their-own-thing kind of listening, but real listening. My stylist took time to understand what I wanted, explained options clearly, and delivered a result that somehow looked effortless and intentional at the same time. The space is clean, modern, and relaxing without feeling cold or pretentious. Every detail feels considered, from the products they use to the way the appointment flows without feeling rushed. I walked out feeling refreshed, put-together, and already planning my next visit. If you want skill, professionalism, and results that make you do a double-take in the mirror later, Avant-Garde absolutely delivers. Highly recommend. ‍

    I had a very disappointing experience at what is considered a high-end salon…read more Before booking my first appointment, I sent photos of my current hair and inspiration pictures to the stylist. I have an AirTouch technique in my hair, and since the salon does not offer AirTouch services, I wanted to confirm in advance that we could achieve a similar look using balayage or highlights. I was assured we could proceed. At the appointment, I waited a bit (which I understand happens in Miami). Once seated, the stylist examined my hair carefully and suggested doing a half head of highlights first to see how my fine, chemically damaged hair would react. I appreciated the caution and explained my previous negative experience with another stylist. When I left the salon, I was happy. The result wasn't identical to my inspiration photos, but I felt good about it. However, after washing my hair once, I noticed obvious orange foil spots and poorly blended areas near my ears. I immediately contacted the salon, and to their credit, they accommodated me the next day for a correction. Unfortunately, the solution offered was to darken my roots to cover the orange spots. This left me questioning why I paid $450 to lighten my roots, only to have them darkened again. Now, just a little over two weeks later, my hair already looks grown out because of the darker roots. For the price point and reputation of this salon, I expected better execution and a longer-lasting result. I truly wanted to love the experience, but overall, I'm very disappointed.

So i waited 7 months for my hair to recover from the bleach because it was literally falling apart. choosing someone new to fix the work And damage from before was nerve racking but boy I DO NOT REGRET choosing Jessica the master hairstylist.

As soon as she starts working on your hair you get the feeling right away, that for her Her job is not just about the money, which in my opinion is very rare. Jessica is direct and tells what is going to take for you to achieve your hair goals with your unique type of hair. HONESTLY BY far best salon experience ever Definitely happy with the results and going back.

She made a video on how to get to the parking garage so people would not get lost since it is a little tricky to find. I mean, who does that? It is so smart!

I am coming back for sure and will bring along my whole family. In addition to it, the salon uses the best products (Kerastase), it's clean, modern, full of natural light (which is very important to be able to really appreciate your hair color). Do not hesitate to visit Jess!
