Muse is tucked away in the Southeast corner of the 200 East Palmetto Park condominium, entrance…read morefrom the street. Like almost everyone I know, you go to a salon because of a particular stylist or colorist who happens to work there. And I'm no different. I've been using the same stylist for more than 10 years, and in another life, before most of my Yelp friends were born, this guy was my stylist, in Great Neck, NY (for those who are curious), in the 70's and 80's [yeah, I'm old]
His name is ALBERTO, and he is a seasoned professional. I always kid him cause he has no gray hair, although he is close to my age,, and I have almost all grey, with some white hair.
ALBERTO is a pro, and actually starts every styling/cutting experience with a query "Is there anything I need to know about your hair, any problems or issues?", and I always answer "You've been cutting/styling my hair for more than 10 years, don't you know enough about it already, and can't you simply look at it and determine what needs to be done?" Of course, he then responds "Oh, you're in a bad mood today", and I say "no, I'm not, but that question doesn't really apply to me". I do understand why he asks it, I just like giving him a hard time! Most women, the majority of his clients are women, may have specific concerns which they want to bring to his attention, and he needs to know about them before he starts to perform his magic on their hair, creating their eventual "look". This is a long way of stating "He is a professional, cares about your look, and asks for input every time before he starts cutting away". Check him out...
The salon is not huge, it is clean, well lit, nicely furnished, and relatively quiet. The music playing is good, streaming from somewhere, not a radio station with commercials, like some salons use. The clientele is diverse as to their age, and tends to be younger, rather than older.
Valet Parking (free, other than a tip) is available from the condo building, access it from Palmetto Park Road, or Mizner Blvd.
I cannot speak about their makeup, or hair extensions, as I have not have either done, and do not plan on it. I used to have lo-lights done by ALBERTO and he was quite good at it, but I'm all natural now.
