The Salon on the Boulevard is much more pleasant than any other beauty parlor in my experience. With only 4 chairs, restful pictures on the walls (& mermaids!) and she has a process by which hair dries w/o a dryer, also comfortable seating, even for the shampoo(!), I leave feeling almost as if I'd been in a spa instead of a beauty parlor. It's nearby and easy to find, just east of the Intercoastal. Taking Atlantic Blvd., you can't miss the signs for Florida Dr., and the Salon is at 2221, in the very first block off Atlantic Blvd., with ample free parking.
I happily recommend as hairdresser there Victoria Gibson. She helped me decide to color my hair after several years of white, promising it was reversible, and found the exact shade that is perfect for me. I had sometimes thought that, although the redheads on both sides of my family were "carrot-tops", I'd like to try the more elegant dark red, so she gave in and tried it, and was very good about fitting me in for a redo when I realized that it did not go with my skintone--actually made me look angry! I've received several favorable comments on the color, and also on the style.
As more white hairs started sprouting in my bushy eyebrows, we added to our routine trimming, shaping, and dyeing them. What a improvement!
And you'll like her. She's an intelligent conversationalist, but never pushy, and a good listener (she actually remembers the names and locations of my sons).
Her number is (904) 534-1144. But if she doesn't answer, please leave a message, as she may be with a guest or at the university for a class toward her advance degree, and will call you back, or you can reach her by email at vlgibson76@yahoo.com.
