Carissa M.

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!

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
Steph W.

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

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!

This was a disappointing visit. They have great reviews and I had been once before. Both times with Shakira, who is super sweet. I had an appointment here at 11am. I came at 10:55 and the door was locked with no lights on. I called multiple times and got a VM. I finally gave up and went home and got a call about an hour later asking if I was still coming in. I was extremely irritated because I had already driven there and back home and was now going to have to do that all over again. I asked for a discount because honestly the whole thing was a little ridiculous. They said they would honor 45 for a haircut which is normally 60. I said that was fine. At the end is where I had the issue. She said she was charging 50 because she had checked the cameras and the hair stylist was 10 minutes late. So a dollar for every minute. 1.that wasn't we agreed on and 2. The issue was the communication, not the fact she was late. There store front says they open at 10 and on the apple map description it also says 10. She then let me know both were incorrect and they open at 11. Again, another miscommunication that shouldn't have happened.1.Fix the sign on your door and 2. Fix the Apple Maps. No one is searching around on multiple platforms to see when you're open. Regardless, someone should be there before that time so the salon is ready? Just unprofessional over all, the owner rubbed me the wrong way and I won't be going back.

Balayage blonde

Ellie always takes amazing care of my hair! I've been dying my hair with her for years and she always does a great job! Other salons have ruined my hair, but she can get me really blonde and not damage my hair!

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!

Hair cut by Ethien and color by Shelby.
Isabel B.

What can I say! This place is amazing. AMAZING . I've been a client for about 6 years. Every time I come, not only I get my hair done exactly how I ask, but the quality of customer service is exceptional. My colorist Sheyla is a true artist, wow! She takes her time and skill to make me look my best. Ellie the owner is always welcoming, friendly and displays professionalism with every one who walks in. I highly recommend this place.

Amazing!!!

I'm so picky but I think they're absolutely perfect. They are sharp and very clean and neat and it's honestly everything I'm looking for in a manicure.

Adianez was my tech for the first visit, and while she was very nice, I don't speak Spanish fluently, so communication was difficult, especially since I had to show her the technique for reptile nails using blooming gel. I recently came back for another plain red set and was assigned a different tech Heydi, who was visibly frustrated when she couldn't achieve the sharp stiletto shape I was requesting, and passed me off to Adianez since she had done my last set. The salon doesn't feel welcoming, especially when the techs seem annoyed and don't pay as much attention to detail as I have become accustomed to with my last long-term tech. My nails always break as well and retention isn't great - I had to come back in to get a nail fixed for each set (for which they charge $7) and since my last nail fix on my current set, three more nails have broken. I'm pretty disappointed, and don't recommend this salon if you are particular about your nails/nail art and want nails that last.

WARNING! 0 STAR-…read moreCompletely unacceptable experience I had a pedicure scheduled at 3:00 PM and a manicure at 4:00 PM. My pedicure finished around 3:30, so I stayed, ordered food, and even got waxing done while waiting. That's already me being flexible. At 4:05 PM, instead of starting my appointment, I was told it would be another 15 minutes. That would make it a 55-minute wait past my scheduled manicure time. The technician (Lee) wasn't even working on another client, he was in the back on a break. That is beyond disrespectful and a complete disregard for people's time. It gets worse. During my waxing, I politely told the technician she missed some small hairs on the side of my lip and asked if she could remove them with tweezers. I had my eyes closed and instead she reapplied wax without telling me and literally ripped off my skin. Not irritation, not redness, actual skin. It burned immediately and you could visibly see the damage. When I went to pay and declined to pay for the waxing (for obvious reasons), I was told I was "exaggerating" and that my skin was just sensitive. No accountability, no apology, just denial. Meanwhile, I'm standing there with visible injury on my face. I left without getting my manicure because waiting nearly an hour past an appointment while the technician takes a break is unacceptable. Now I'm dealing with facial skin damage that will take weeks to heal, all because of careless service and zero professionalism. Between the disrespect for appointment times and physically injuring a client, this place is completely unacceptable. DO NOT COME HERE

First time review, longtime client!…read more After my last (popular) nail boutique became unreliable and difficult, I was recommended to Mano. It's been 3 years and I am very happy with Mano. At my initial appointment, my first assigned nail tech was very good, but a minor issue recurred, so I changed to another tech who did an excellent job month after month. During my appointments, I also became acquainted with a third tech (Lala) who is notorious in the shop for her exemplary artistic abilities. When my second full timer left the shop, I slotted in with Lala. Aside from being the friendliest nail artist I've known in a decade, she earns her reputation. My nails have never been better looking or healthier. Lala is meticulous and recognizes her name is on the work. She offers a full spectrum from classy single color, to French, to art, and up to the minute trends. Her artistic versatility is notable. The boutique is nice. Peacefully quiet. Clean. Accessible in midtown. Competitively if not reasonably priced. I don't personally sit for pedicures, but I have seen them performed frequently and quickly. Scheduling is quite accommodating. Communication is excellent with texts to confirm and remind of upcoming appointments. Appointments start on time. Emergencies are quickly attended. Highly recommended.

The tech was friendly and efficient; I did notice one of the designs did not match the photo exactly so I corrected her, and one of the little gold balls that was applied fell off in a couple days. I wish I got the "hand massage with organic aromatherapy body oil" that was included in the price of $72, and that is the sort of thing I feel self-conscious asking for if missed so I didn't mention it. Overall, if I return I would try a more advanced nail set because the techs advertise their pieces and they look pretty cool, but for a simple design I would perhaps look somewhere else due to the cost.
