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.

As most women can relate, finding the perfect hairdresser is a must; and not as easy as you think…read more I started coming to this salon 3 years ago (conveniently located in the heart of Miami Lakes) and have always had my hair done by Chelsea.

I was really looking forward to my appointment, but unfortunately, my experience was frustrating…read morefrom the start. After booking and paying a deposit, I received a call stating that the time and service was incorrectly scheduled. On top of that, I wasn't even asked about the service I selected (Color Package 4, the highest package) to ensure everything was set up correctly. To make matters worse, while I was initially able to book a later time online, I was then asked to come earlier. This was fine with me, and I was told the technician would stay, and we wouldn't finish until 11 PM. By this point, my hair (or myself) hadn't even been seen yet. I understand that prices can change, but this situation made it hard to enjoy the experience, especially as a busy mom who rarely has time to pamper herself. Additionally, while the website recommends a consultation, the call felt more like reading the rules on the site rather than a personalized conversation, which I did take the time to read as it has taken me some time to try and find a new salon that is closer to my home. Better communication and a more thoughtful approach would have gone a long way. Overall, I hope the business can improve its customer service and communication so clients feel valued before they even arrive.

Jocelyn is a wonderful stylist and very polite…read more Unfortunately I did have to look for a new salon. LMG calls to change my appointments 70-80% of the time. Appointments I make 3-6 months in advance. They request I change my appointment to accommodate other customers. I generally agree to change my appointment. Today I called to change tomorrow's appointment last minute because I was in the ER Sunday and my doctor called to see me tomorrow at 8am. My appointment was at 9am. They wouldn't even offer to give me 15min grace period which is pretty standard. I was charged the cancellation fee. I would be fine with this policy if I did not have to accommodated them by changing my appointments as often as I have over the 3-4 years I have been a customer at LMG. If they require customers to cancel appointments more than 24hrs in advance then they must do the same for customers. If they move customers around to fit it more appointments often then they should allow a one-time courtesy of allowing the customer to change the day before their appointment. I would recommend trying a salon which offers better customer service to long time customers before booking at LMG.

I have extremely dry hair & brittle ends. My hair feels like hay (not kidding). The natural texture of my hair is very fine & thin, so the damage from box dye is severe. Cristian & I worked on a plan to bring my hair back to its original texture. Cristian did not want to compromise my hair so he only did root touch up to cover grays as part of the hair recovery process. He even suggested giving me front layers to give my hair form & also complimented my face This man is THE BEST. The way he cuts & blow drys hair, STUNNING. I felt like I could take over the world after my cut & blow!!! Cristian I love you, can't wait to continue my hair journey with you! Cristian is not only a hair dresser, he's an experience! Come visit Cristian for life changing hair results! P.S. the salon is a vibe, I felt I was among friends, everyone is so nice obsessed

Kristy comes and says oh I'm busy you're gonna have to wait over an hour and a half for me to do your hair I don't know who made your appointment at 12 but I'm busy. I said I'm coming from Hollywood all the way over here to cut my hair with you, she said well just cut your hair with anybody then you shouldn't be coming from Hollywood all the way over here. Very rude. They could have called me a head of time and changed my appointment for a later time or day. Or handled the situation differently when I was there. Just very sad how people have no consideration for your time anymore. Don't recommend this place at all. Good service is everything.
