If I could give Adrian and his staff 1000 stars, I would. I have searched the world over (no…read moreexaggeration) for a truly brilliant colorist. After two years of searching, I was one click away from booking a flight and hotel from Miami to Philadelphia JUST for an appointment with a renowned colorist there, when I happened upon Adrian's Instagram profile on my discovery page. (Check it out @adriantorressalon) When I saw his work I knew the 45 minute drive into The Gables was WELL worth it.
Not only is Adrian a hair genius, he is also so receptive, kind, down to earth and easy to talk to. He approaches you with absolute confidence and ease, that he will seamlessly provide the result of your hair dreams.
His staff is so sweet and lovely and extremely professional in everything they do. I was even a little chilly and they brought me a throw.
The salon itself is also a reflection of his impeccable taste. It's a neutral but luminous palette, clearly well thought out, upbeat but chill music, with plants adding color and natural beauty.
He also has done his homework with the products he uses and sells. He is ONLY quality in everything he brings in and does.
Adrian and the stylists who all work together like a well-oiled machine, to bring you through every step of the process are like a SYMPHONY... they play off of each other and time everything so perfectly to the very end where you will literally marvel over the way your hair looks and feels and how it affects your face. It's like being surrounded in a choreographed dance with one unified goal. For you to have heavenly locks.
If you are like me and had THE hardest time finding someone who knows what they are doing, seriously, look no further.
Yes, he is a bit pricey (but who isn't these days) but I promise you, his art on your head, is WELL worth every, last penny. You truly get what you pay for. I am madly in love with my hair and get endless compliments.
They speak Spanish and English so it makes discussing the details of the coiffure plan simple in either case.
Something additional is that they graciously host you upon arrival and you will be offered cocktails, high quality as well, in Adrian Torres logo glasses ... how can it get better (as I sip my Prosecco)?
Also, I love the bathroom wallcovering. Lol, You'll see when you get there.
Be aware that you need to set aside about 4-5 hours which is $12-15 on the parking meters. Street parking is easy but be sure to factor it in.
Lastly, be sure to call and ask about pricing so you're not surprised by the total cost. Again, entirely worth how you feel when you leave.
AMAZING salon! THE best in Miami, hands down.
