I have known Gabriel for almost 10 years now - and he's been doing my hair all those 10 years! I have since moved to NYC and refuse to go to anyone else. I'll fly down every few months and get my pampering done with him and his team. No one knows color and cuts like the balayage king himself! Not only is he an expert - he is the epitome of a wonderful human being. He is gracious, honest with what you can do, and the most charismatic person you'll ever meet. If you need a one stop shop for hair, nails, make up... look no further. Gabriel and his team will become family! Adding in Elizabeth is my favorite for keratin and hair botox read more

Será muy bueno.Pero desde q llamas p marcar la chica super grosera y además pagar 120 USD por un corte.

Gabriel Samra - Could not be any happier with my results! - Hair Salons Near Me - Miami, Florida

Pictures speak louder than words. This is not an $800 service. This haircut is the worst I've gotten in my entire life. The service in this salon is the worst. I understand that mistakes happen, I called the salon several times and I also messaged "the owner" I never got any resolution to my problem. I do not have any issues with paying so much for a service as long as is a great service. The color is brassy, the haircut is completely botched and basically the assistant was the one that did everything (except the foils) . He had other clients at the same time I never felt like I was getting the treatment "he says" he gives to his clients. Now I have to pay to get this fix somewhere else. I will say this again. NOBODY RETURNED MY CALLS to try to fix this matter. Don't let Instagram fool you. Please look at the picture I posted!!! Side note, he will make you sit outside in the heat (no ac) so your hair can process, my shirt was ruined with bleach and I had bleach and sweat dripping on my skin, by far the worst technique I've seen, also having to put up with people smoking outside totally gross! The nerve to charge $800 for a service worst than at a low class salon. My hair is damage! I wish I would have listen to the bad reviews on yelp! Ohh and the gossip was totally inappropriate by far the worst experience I've had. Just look at these pictures! Terrible!!!! read more

Let me tell you- he leaves me speechless every time! I love Gabriel and his wonderful team! I travel from NY to Miami just for him- I literally don't trust anybody else with my hair. I've been going to him since 2018 and he's always taken very good care of me If you're thinking about doing your hair, go with him!!! I've also noticed that my hair has never been left dry or destroyed, like most other salons, in fact my hair leaves in much better condition than it was before!!! read more

Came in for hair cut, I was on time for my appointment w Gabriel - he cut my hair and put me in someone else chair for the blow out w/out even asking me if I was ok with that. (My appoints was w Gabriel) mind you he was blowing out someone's hair when I initially arrived and while o was getting my hair washed. Hair cut was just ok and the blow out was not even as good I the one I do on myself. But the worst part and the reason for the one star was the gossipy employees. Uffff the girls at the front whispering and talking about someone - and the guy who did my blow out talking about a stylist and another client. Shame shame shame. read more

As a curly haired girl I did ALOT of research on salons in Miami and I have not one regret about getting highlights at this salon. I got my hair done with Julio! He was super sweet, funny, and his techniques were phenomenal. I could tell he was 100% focused on my hair and did exactly what I showed him as an example, possibly even better. The highlights look beautifully blended throughout my hair which was one of my biggest fears of not accomplishing. For the amount of steps and product the whole thing felt like a quick breeze (in the best way possible). Staff is also super attentive! Loved my entire experience and my new hair. Thank you guys (: read more

I hadn't had my hair done in years and let me tell you I was nervous but from the moment I walked in the front desk was amazingly welcoming and Gabriel and staff was indescribable in how comfortable and attentive they are. My hair came out amazing and definitely will be back and I can't thank all of you enough for your wonderful customer service and superb skills your are exceptionally skillful in your work . Thank you Gabriel!!!! You made my mommy make over a success!!! read more

DO YOU LIKE FRIED HAIR? THEN COME TO THIS SALON! **EMPLOYEES ARE NOT TRAINED PROPERLY I came in for a Cellulas Madres treatment which kind of works like Keratina, I told them that I had previously bleached my hair a lot and was careful to not apply much heat on my hair because I don't want to further damage it. After applying a cream, leaving it in for about an hour and then washing it off, the lady doing my hair began to blow dry it without brushing my hair at all, creating tons of knots, to which she decided the best way to brush out my hair was ripping a comb from the roots to tips of MY DAMP HAIR. This hurt like hell and she wouldn't stop unless I looked at her like she was insane and loudly said "ow!" In her chair. The worst part is she didn't even dry my hair fully, and continued to FLAT IRON MY DAMP HAIR. How does a professional: 1) brush wet hair from roots to tip forcing the knots out, breaking my hair 2) fails to properly blow dry some damn hair 3) flat irons DAMP hair When I got out my hair looked nice but running my hands through it, the tips of my hair were CRISPY. LIKE SOME DAMN CHICKEN TENDERS. DO NOT DO YOUR HAIR HERE SAVE UR SCALP SIDENOTE: Both employees that I spoke to during the consultation failed to inform me that the treatment I chose would alter my hair color. I went to my regular stylist to tell her what happened and she said during the training for this treatment I chose, THE STYLISTS ARE REQUIRED TO TELL THE CLIENT THAT THE PRODUCT ALTERS YOUR HAIR COLOR! THE EMPLOYEES HERE ARE NOT BEING TRAINED FOR THE TREATMENTS YOU ARE PAYING FOR !!! read more

the service price is ridiculous I pay almost $600 and my hair is brassy as hell and burnd. Now I need to go and cut it . he only did the foils like in a rush and his assistance did everything. the products they use are bad quality I seen better plus the smell is too cheap. the process took about 4 hours just to have brassy hair . Now getting back to black . I cant even have my hair loose . the color and the quality of my hair is totally destroy it . Plus, the make you take a picture prior to the appointment so they give you the price and they should honor that price. when I finished the charge me extra $200 read more

I got partial highlights and a trim from Harold. He did a terrific job. Price was very affordable.

I was on the hunt for a new salon that offered hair and nail services. I came across Gabriel Samra and I'm never going elsewhere! From online appointment systems to cafecito or tea while you wait, this place was amazing! The service is phenomenal and both my hair and nails came out beautiful. This is my new makeover home read more

Gabriel Samra - Hair Salons Near Me - Miami, Florida

Let me start by saying that Gabriel Samra is not called the king of balayage for nothing! He really is the king of balayage. What I like the most about Gaby is that, not only he's amazing coloring but, he's also amazing cutting and styling hair. He's been coloring and cutting my hair for the last 7 months and my hair has never been healthier and more beautiful. I get compliments all the time! The staff is very professional and friendly, they serve a killer cafe con leche, the salon is at a very convenient location and best of all it has its own private parking. I recommend them 100%. read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE IF YOU DONT WANT YOUR HAIR FRIED!!!! Paid over $300 to get my hair fried! He thinks he is so amazing at what he does, but honestly this is probably the worse hair stylist I have ever gone to. I am still trying to recover my healthy hair before he touched it. Went in for some subtle lowlights and left with almost white hair which he had to tone down when it was already fried. read more

I came for a specific modern style of hair cut. The lady that did my hair was really nice but kept asking for my opinion while cutting the hair which already put me on edge. After going back and forth I gave up since I didn't want to be rude. I am not satisfied with the final cut. I will go somewhere else to fix it. If you can't achieve a modern cut do not act on it. This place could have potential but their staff needs training on modern cuts. Also, the staff doesn't know that they are on yelp and have a 10% on your first visit. What? read more

The sign outside "$30 Mani-Pedi" brought me to this salon.... I was greeted by the owner's mom, who was soo pleasant and offered drinks (coffee, water etc) and coffee. The owner, Gabriel Samra, AKA "el mago de la belleza" (the beauty magician), has his own TV segment on telemundo, in the morning show "levantate". He was on site and he was also very nice and helpful. Amaya, Nail Technician, was GREAT! She did a wonderful job! The Salon opened about a month ago... I hope they continue providing great service to the customer. If so, this will definitely be my spot for manis and pedis! read more

I am a huge fan of this place! It is not too often where you and your wife can share a hair place. I was very skeptical but my Meesh suggested i go with her one day to try something new. Kicking and screaming i was brought in because i was used to going to my SUpercuts or Hair Cuttery religiously. After my cafecito and a little faith i was beyond happy with the new cut! I nice take on my usual cut but with something new. Now since i work for a bank i can't get all crazy and thats good. A very nice clean cut look for me and from now on this is my regular place. As i turn over and see my wife finishing up her new style and color she smiles and gives her nod of approval. First time i got to a salon to get my hair cut...i know it is not the last. I have been back at least 5 times. read more

Where to start?! Jaja I've been to this salon 3 times, Each time has being better than the last. Starting by the front desk ladies. To Gabriel himself, everyone is so attentive and sweet, they do make me feel at home. That being said, I wanted a complete change and Gabi listened to what I wanted and delivered exactly what I was expecting. He is not only EXCELLENT and oh soooo TALENTED, he is also an incredible human being. And Diana is Amazing as well, great and talented and oh so sweet! Thank you all! You got a client for life here. God bless. read more

Love my new look! Gaby has a great eye and great personality! Ill be back. Make sure to park in the back. read more

Everyone was super friendly!!! I loved it! The coffee another Yelper wrote about really was really really good. The stylist available was Raul and he was great. I only had a trim but since I have curly hair I find it difficult to find someone that does it even and at the right length. I saw what the other ladies looked like after they dyed their hair or did a hair style.... And i was stunned....WOW. I have already recommended this place to my friends. Unfortunately I'm giving this place three stars cause I'm so unhappy with my Mani-pedi. The sign outside and the website say $30 Mani-pedi's but be warned this is only for days Monday -Wednesday and when you call for an appointment they don't tell you it's no longer $30 starting Thursday. They also continue to place the sign outside at $30 every day. The lady that did my Mani-pedi left my nails sloppy and it's really noticeable cause the red polish is on my skin. read more

I'm glad other people had a good experience, but I will never go back. I never write reviews but I have to caution anyone who wants a bob haircut. I asked for a short bob and even though everyone was nice, Manny did not cut my ends evenly. All he did was cut straight across without any sort of layering at the ends to style it. I had to go back and Harold fixed one of the mistakes on my ends but kept making excuses saying it was minimal and it was because parts of my hair were still wet (it wasn't wet, it was dry). He seemed to be annoyed by me even though I was extremely polite. I asked if he could layer it a little at the ends to make it look better and he said no because it was too short. Now, the next day, I'm looking at it and it is totally uneven and it's all over the place, so I'm going to have to make an appointment elsewhere to get it fixed. Never going back. Update: Gabriel spoke to me personally, apologized, and was very kind and professional, and offered to rectify the situation. I very much appreciated it. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I only came to this place because it was close to my apartment and I was looking for a new salon. I got a haircut with Manny which was fine. They rushed me to get my hair washed without even looking at my hair before wetting it to see how it is naturally. Then I got THE WORST manicure by Lorena. I'm assuming she came in late therefore she was rushing through my manicure. She cut my finger and the the gel manicure paint job she did was CRAP. I will NEVER come here again. Save your time and money. They treat their business like a factory instead of a place to pamper people. NEVER EVER AGAIN. Awful experience and they lost a customer who gets their nails done ever 2 weeks religiously. DO NOT RECOMMEND! read more

Horrible experience! super expensive for a bad haircut and bad hair color, super loud place and you have to wait hours and hours after making an appointment. Gabriel cut my hair, let me tell you the cut was uneven and the color was horrible bad. Please, think 3 times before visiting this place. read more

I read the good reviews before going in 3 weeks ago for my first haircut here. I had an appointment set with Manuel. I now see the good reviews all mention Gabriel. At first glance the salon is beautiful and clean, I was quickly attended by Manuel. As I introduced myself in the front of the salon, he's asking me about my hair. I tell him I want long layers on a shoulder length cut and shorter hair around my face. I showed him a few pictures. I expected him to ask about my routine, how I like to style it, which way my hair naturally parts, etc. He did not ask me anything else. He sat me down with a lady so that she would wash my hair (I now assume Manuel doesn't do this part) but the lady kept complaining to me and telling me that she had a client waiting and she could not believe Manuel didn't wash me himself!!! I began to feel nervous. He sat me down, didn't ask me any further questions about my hair as I expected since and began to chop off hair while having a full blown conversation with another employee. Both Manuel and the other speaking about what a long day they had and how much they want to go home and drink. (Talk about feeling "pampered".) I'll leave you with why I'm writing this weeks after my hair cut.. I STILL HATE IT. He gave me a long bob blunt cut. I asked him twice if he was going to add layers and frame my face like I asked. She said my hair wouldn't look good like that. (I'm Hispanic, have wavy hair, not sure what he was referring to.) I felt so uncomfortable I went through with the blow dry, proceeded to pay and left. Also, take note, they DO NOT accept the 10% coupon as listed on the yelp page. The lady at the counter looked at me with a discussed face when I showed her the promo, told me it was incorrect, asked me how I found it and then proceeded to tell me they don't know how it ended up there. All in all, yes this is a rant BUT I kept looking across the room at a lady who was getting hair and makeup done and she looked unhappy as well. I guess people at this salon don't like to work after 4PM. I will not be returning here. The staff is loud, obnoxious and do not care about their clients. The salon is beautiful and should rethink everyone in there. Wish I would've gone to Gabriel himself. read more

Just gets better and better! Gaby is amazing, so is Manny and the rest of the staff! My second home!!

Amazing! Gabriel did a wonderful job on my hair! Only reason that there don't get five is because of the wait time. I felt like he took on to many people at once cause a longer over all time but he did not lack quality at all. Would consider going back! read more

Gabriel Samra - Hair Salons Near Me - Miami, Florida

So bad...... He destroy my hair. I was looking for a balayage and my hair it was broken. Horrible. Not good customer service. My appointment supposed to be at 3:00 PM and he starts in my hair almost at 5:00 PM. After he destroyed my hair he charged $300 dollars. Very bad salón, not recommended to anyone. read more

I'm very dissatisfied with the services rendered at this place which is not hair related. I found this girl through a friend who did her hair with Samra whom he referred to her as " the best in town" for microblading and eyebrows shading. First,I was the one reaching out to gather the info related to the procedure which she replied in a reasonable time. Then she sent me the release form with all the steps to follow prior to the procedure ( keep in mind this was Monday and my appointment was Friday ). In the release form she reported the aftercare treatment and what vitamin supplements I was supposed to stop prior the appointment (7 days prior according to her instructions) which she didn't send in a timely manner . Then Upon arrival to the salon , the people were very welcoming which I have no complaints about that. Once the girl who's name is Atenea arrived , she was very good explaining the whole process and based on her experience she recommended me what to get. So I went for the shading since what I wanted was to look like I had a soft powder look. Upon arrival to the room everything was very clean and seemed spotless . The procedure took more time than expected ,but anyhow the point was not the time , the point was that i left with uneven eyebrows. After she said she was done with my eyes brows and I looked at myself in the mirror I was shocked with the results and I told her " I think I have one eyebrow higher than the other one and more rounded than the other one " she told me , " no worries I can fix it, let me measure you again " aren't you supposed to do that since the beginning ? Long story short , I have one eyebrow more arched than the other one and I told her to stop fixing it since I personally thought she was doing more harm than good. According to her,I'm supposed to loose 50-60 % of the pigment which is fine but how can you trust someone who left you un satisfied with the service that the customer paid $500? Then she wasn't humble enough to accept that she messed up and was acting like she was offended and calling me dramatic for me telling her I wasn't happy with the results since the beginning referring to me " that I was hating her at this moment for the way I looked " Hello wouldn't you ? I'm honestly furious cause she claimed that it was her time , supplies and so on , but do people realize the amount of trust a person place into someone when doing something in your face and doesn't come out as expected? Girl if you screwed up at least be humble and stick your tongue were you don't get sun and be humble and apologize,don't act like you did a wonderful job cause you didn't . Pictures to follow of the before and after . Keep in mind that my eyes brows where even and the way she left me it looks like I have a lazy eye. I don't recommend her at all and it gives Gabriel Samra Salon a very bad reputation for poor ethics, unprofessionalism, and decreased customer service. Now I have to stick to funny looking eyebrows for until a professional fix my eyebrows if they can. Ps: Getting nasty text messages after asking for my refund makes it even worst , not for me but for the person with the childish and unprofessional behavior towards a customer. read more
