New hair color

I started conversing with the owner Ellie as I was looking to make a drastic color change, which I had never done before so I was nervous. From questions through the treatment they were very kind, flexible & patient with me. It took a while to complete but well worth it. They did an amazing job. The salon is clean & airy with a nice atmosphere, not stuffy at all. I have a new trusted salon. Highly recommend.

Absolutely Amazing Experience! I made the appointment 2 weeks after getting my highlights elsewhere and not being happy about the front- the girl that did it didn't at all listen to what I wanted and even made chopped blocks and triangle looking angles. I'm on a road trip so the initial salon was in L.A. & unable to fix it; I felt awful about it for two weeks & decided the money was worth the fix. Shakira got me right in and first thing she said was "your hair is so beautiful"- that comment alone made me feel relaxed and just so comfortable about her because she wasn't trying to get me to spend like crazy and preying on my insecurities. Then the VIBE !!! This place IS MIAMI!!! To the point though, the hair... she did an amazing job and opened up the light around the face (which is exactly what I prefer and was not done at last shop) & even though it was done 2 weeks later so roots would of course be different (my hair grows fast too), she blended it in perfectly! The entire experience was fabulous; Shakira listens, pays attention, does what's best for her client and makes sure you look fantastic! The owner was there and I flipping love her! The music was GREAT--- Gen X party style! I'm having trouble leaving the south Florida area and may just have to stay again a little longer just to have my full highlights done with her before I head back way way way north. Tell ya what, I almost signed a lease nearby they made it so fun. I included before and after photos- she brightened my entire face and even added some on the side which made it all pop! Great job!

My husband found True Hair by literally searching for a salon closest to where we had lunch reservations. Ugh...scary! Well, it was the best experience EVER!! Ellie, the owner, is the sweetest person that made me feel beyond comfortable. The ambiance is cozy and relaxed - this is extremely important to someone like me that doesn't like the typical stuffy, pretentious salons. However, they are beyond professional and this is the best subtle, beach wave hairdo I have ever gotten. Aishley did my hair and she was amazing: she listened to what I wanted and delivered above and beyond! I'm not even going to mention the yummy champagne Do yourself a favor and check them out!!!

Worst haircut ever

I don't think I even need to explain why I am giving one star right? I came to the salon because of the reviews on yelp when I was on vacation last month. I decided to give a try and I was extremely clear when I asked the "hairstylist " for a even hair cut, I said long bob and showed a picture for reference. The guy told me he had over 15 years of experience including in Italy where he is from. Well... that I got and after tips was about 100 dólares. Now, I have to spend more money to fix this disaster!

Red Balayage

Family vacation to South Beach and I was on the hunt for a great hair salon. My hair was dried out on the ends and I had copper tones on the ends so it was in desperate need of TLC. I contacted Ellie the owner via Yelp and she was able to schedule me for a next day appointment. She is super responsive! She's super down to earth and up for real talk. This is a small salon that is so busy that she has to refer potential customers to a colleague so I felt lucky to get an appointment on such short notice. It is notable that even though she gets booked quickly, she always picks up the phone. I had an appointment with Tom who spent 5 hours transforming my hair from a hot mess to a vibrant red balayage! I had a chance to watch BTS BANGTANTV and play my game on the phone while he worked diligently on getting the color just right. I was very happy with the result but I almost had a heart attack when I got the final bill. An initial quote of slightly over $300 turned into $500 + tip. I'm still quite not sure how that happened and I was too stunned to even ask. My husband looked like he was going to faint and Ellie gave us some nice shampoo to calm him. I don't really know if that worked. Again, I love the end result! Tip: If you are concerned about cost, please don't make my mistake and wing it or it will be a hazard to your health lol I guess when on vacation......splurge at True Hair Miami.

This was the result when I removed the extensions. My hair is so damaged and short.

She's lying, she did my hair and destroyed it. And highly over priced. 0 stars from me! Don't recommend at all.

Cyril M.

Ethian is the best hair dresser I have found so far here in Miami. LOVE WHAT HE DID TO MY HAIR, I'm really picky and I'm super happy with the hair cut. Extremely recommended!!!!!!! Lovely nice and also super fun.

Another angle of my new color. She did a beautiful job - and I love the lighter strands near the front that frame my face.
Julie M.

Highly recommend! After a coloring mishap at another salon (that gave me orange glowey hair), I came to Ellie for help. She told me her plan and made sure I was comfortable with it, and even worked around her schedule to fit me in. She took a lot of time to make sure it turned out beautiful. And I'm just so incredibly happy with the results! I feel lucky I found her. Here are before and after pics

Angie G.

These ladies are so fun! I've been coming for awhile and always leave feeling fabulous! I've been seeing Shakirah and she takes such good care of my long, curly hair and keeps my red super vibrant. She's very intuitive on what your hair needs and hyped me up right before a date night. I love that every time I come I always have a blast and leave feeling amazing. I highly recommend, every girl needs a fabulous hair stylist. She's mine!

Antonia S.

Had such an amazing fun time here. Jana did an outstanding job with my hair and makeup. Such colorful eyeshadow and beautiful braids. The balayage came out amazing. I will definitely be coming out here again to TrueHair and seeing my hairdresser Jana .

24" extensions
Beanie B.

The owner is simply a doll. I came in with 5 month grown out keratin extensions which partially dreadlocked up in the back (even though I brushed my hair thoroughly everyday) She had so much patience detangling me and getting those old extensions out. Then put new 24" tape ins in a snap. She served us champagne as my fiancé patiently waited and even drove us home to Miami Beach! What great service and sweet as can be!

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.

I am over the moon to have finally found a salon and stylist/owner, Tomy, who is a genius with…read morecolor. He understands Asian hair and how to lift it to a beautiful blond without looking brassy. I have bounced around to different Fort Lauderdale salons after moving here 5 years ago and couldn't quite find a perfect fit with the dozen or so places I have tried out. I wanted an easy low maintenance blond (yes I know, no such thing with blond), and Tomy came through. I came in with three layers of color- dark roots about 2 inches long, bleached muddy blond through the middle and orange ends. It was a disaster grow out. I had a consult with Markie for blonde highlights and to blend in my roots but since Markie couldn't do highlights at the moment, she deferred me to Tomy. I didn't know I was in for a treat. I showed Tomy pics of what I wanted and he insisted that the color I wanted would wash me out and that I would not be happy with the maintenance since I wanted low maintenance. Initially, I was disheartened but I can appreciate his honesty and after he explained what he thought would work better for me yet achieve something close to what I was looking for. I thought I came in for a consult but he worked me in between his clients so that he could show me what he could achieve yet still make me happy. Mind you, the salon was super busy but the man is a multitasking genius! He did a toner and root scrape while Markie did my haircut and Yasleen did my blowout. Did I mention that my color was a disaster? Well, 2 hours later, what was flat and orange and 3 different colors was now bright, golden and well blended. My dark roots melted into the blond so seamlessly, you would think Michelangelo painted it himself. I absolutely love the results!
