Hair color and cut by Mari
Vivian A.

I've been to many hair salons in the US and abroad but Mari is truly on a league of her own, not only does she have an incredible eye for hair color but she also takes the time to listen and truly understand exactly what you want-then somehow make it even better that you imagined! My hair has never looked healthier, shinier or more vibrant! Her amazing sweet personality and interaction with customers and staff alike sets the tone for a great environment! Everyone is greeted with care and respect and she runs the show! She is truly a leader and is an integral part of the success in the Plantation Salon!

The calls I made that were apparently blocked.

I have been to several Drew James Salons -- Hollywood, Pembroke Pines and Plantation. I had amazing stylists at two of them -- Plantation and Hollywood. On my last visit to the Hollywood store, I had no issue with my stylist or the service but asked the receptionist as I was checking out about the discriminatory price structure that charged a 3 or 4 times greater cost for cutting curly hair vs straight hair. I was told stylists had to get special training to cut curly hair that is not taught at Aveda schools and therefore they charged more. I asked didn't that essentially amount to a race-based tax for patrons of color who typically have curly hair. I took a picture of the price menu and the outside of the salon and made a personal social media post about it on which I tagged Aveda and Drew James. It wasn't rude; just objectively noting the facts and asking the question and asking them to reconsider the practice and its consequences. No one reached out to me to address my concerns. Since that encounter, I had not been to a Drew James salons in quite a while -- years -- but needed a quick color retouch so I recently called the one close to me to make an appointment. The number didn't work. I called over two days but couldn't get through and, because the salon was so close, I drove over to make an appointment in person. I had also texted but got no response and asked when I walked in if the number had changed. They confirmed it had not. They confirmed that three stylists could see me this afternoon and because it was just a retouch I selected the least costly one. About 10 minutes later, I got a call from the salon apologizing that they had made a mistake and that the stylist was actually not available at the time slot they scheduled for me. So, I asked to just be booked with one of the other two stylists who I had just confirmed had availability. Then I was told none of them were available. I asked how could that be the case in the 10 minutes since I left the store and then the story changed. She told me I'm sorry but we can't book you because it's not a "good fit." I asked if she could tell me what she meant as I had been going to the salons over two decades. She said there was a note in the system that they could not service me, but she wouldn't tell me what it said. I recounted my history with the salon and said I had never had or been made aware of any issue with a stylist, I had paid for all my services so I couldn't understand why I would be banned. She said she would ask a manager to call and, hours later, I've heard nothing. The only thing that could be an issue is my questioning the discriminatory price structure. So, not only are Drew James salons okay with practicing racial discrimination but now apparently they have a retaliation policy and practice as well. If you go to a Drew James salon, take note and see if the practice is still in place and consider whether this is the kind of company you really want to do business with, or,if you are employed there, if it's the kind of company you want to work for. I have reached out to the corporate office and will update with corporate's reply.

Haircut + bouncy blowout
Selma J.

Had a haircut and blowout with Meg and it was amazing. Truly the best haircut experience I've had, and she did exactly what I asked for. Already scheduled my next haircut with her!

Outstanding experience at Drew James Aveda Salon in Plantation, with the amazing work of the superstar ESTEPHANIE! Here's the story... I was already a fan of Estephanie from her previous job. She's fairly new to DJAS (a bonus for them). My son wanted to gift me a salon treatment for Mother's Day, and tracked down Estephanie. My hair was in rough shape but she very confidently said "I'll fix it". I'm going to add a photo so you can see what a miraculous job she did. Track her down at Drew James Aveda! Excellent salon, excellent products.... and excellent Estephanie!

I went here last week with my friend who had an appointment & I wanted to do my brows too but they…read moreseemed so busy I didn't want to ask. The Front receptionist and I began talking after a while and I mentioned how I would've got mine done & she stopped me mid sentence exclaiming that she has someone who could take me right now. Of course I took her up on the offer and ended getting my brows tinted and cleaned up. The brow artist I had (sadly I don't remember her name) was so sweet and listened to exactly what I wanted instead of doing whatever she thought I needed. Needless to say, my brows came out amazing. I've gotten compliment after compliment because she did a really great job of making them look natural. She also gave me tips on maintaining them and what to use to help them grow in the places I have slight gaps. Another thing I noticed while I was sitting there waiting for my friend is that the brow artist wouldn't take her next appointment if let's say she was waiting 10 minutes for the tint to set on her 1st appointment. This is something I've experienced all the time and really dislike at salons because then you're stuck waiting till they're done with a person that came after you. So I really like the fact that they gave their full attention to you and your appointment. I will honestly being going back here for the simple fact that they overall provide a great service. So anyone looking to have their eyebrows slayed, this is the place!

They need to clean it up, paint, and put out some good smelling stuff. Because I thought Sherry did a good job, I haven't decided if I will return or not. They definately need to fix the aesthetics.

I had some outfits come in from India, but the tops were made a bit to small for me, I came by the store on Saturday afternoon and met with the lovely owner. She took my measurements and I explained to her what I needed done. Pricing for alterations are not and, it's what I would be expecting to pay if I was getting this done in Jackson Heights NY... The store offers alot of Indian items; from clothes, jewelry, accessories a few more items; for men, woman and children. Some items on display however do seem a bit out dated, compared to the fashion and style of today's designers. The prices for items in the shop seem on the higher side, but considering there are not many Indian shops around, and majority of items are coming from India, it's rare findings. The shop also has beauty services: hair, eyebrow threading, and even Hannah! I honestly never knew this shop was here, but now that I've been made aware I'll be coming in more often for some services and when I need alterations on my Indian ware. I also need to make a shout out to the kind woman who works in the shop along side the owner (I can't remember her name!!). She was extremely sweet on the phone with me, and when I was in the shop she definitely helped a lot!

But ever since the COVID started taking over our normal lives, businesses were forced to close during the shutdown. When it was time for business to start opening back up slowly, many business were not able to come back and had no choice to shut down permanently. Unfortunately, this happened to the place where my stylists used to work. But luckily he was able to find a new salon where can work and he contacted me when he found out when can start working again, which is what led me to this place. I have not been to this place before but I felt very comfortable and safe coming in. They have very detailed and strict guidelines to ensure everyone's safety. For example, customers had to call in from their cars upon arrival so they can make sure there's plenty of room for social distancing. We had to use hand santizer sanitizer when we walk through the front door. We all have to wear masks the entire time during the visits. In addition to the safety rules, the place looked very clean and organize. The beauty chairs are positioned so customers will not be breathing to each other because the wall mirrors are placed between each chair. Touchless payment method is used so you can pay directly to your stlist and you dont have to wait and pay at the front desk. This location might be a little out of the way from my house, but I dont mind driving a little further so I can still support local businesses.

He said with who? Told him the name and said he doesn't work there anymore. I had an appointment for that salon regardless. Why didn't they call to notify he wasn't there or set me up with someone else? Also don't even try calling. They don't answer their phone. Probably the most unprofessional salon I've been in.
