Hi, I've been holding off on writing this review to see if I have changed the way that I feel but I…read morehaven't. I went to get my hair done here about a week and a half ago with Cindy due to a promotion I saw on Instagram. I was really excited because I haven't done anything to my hair in two years no coloring, just haircuts and after 2 1/2 years I was finally ready to change it up. I sent a photo of my inspiration, and a photo of how my hair looked now. They said they could see me that morning and I went in. I first went in with the idea that I was gonna get my hair done at 275 because of the promotion then the Stylist tells me that's for a partial balayage and if I want the full balayage, then it would be 375, but it would blend in better with my hair and give me my overall look that I wanted. It's my first time there and she's the professional so I agree with everything she says. She's really quiet and doesn't really ask any questions. So at some point, it's just kind of awkward enough that I put my headphones in because nothing is really happening which was fine, we didn't have to talk. When she finally blow dried my hair. It wasn't what what I wanted and it was way darker than what I wanted. I told her that I liked it, but that it was too dark for what I wanted. She proceeds to say that she stopped it before the bleach would cause any damage, which I did think it was weird because I have done transformations like this before, and all the other Stylist have been able to give me my desired look and keep my hair healthy. Fine, I pay and I go home. I sent a message to the hair salon later because I really don't like my hair and even though it's nice, it's not what I want at all. So I ask her for an adjustment and she gets me in for the following Tuesday. I go in, I get greeted by the receptionist and she asked the Stylist if I'm going lighter or darker. The Stylist says she's going lighter and then they proceed to talk about me and say they don't understand why she's going lighter that It's gonna change the whole look all while I'm sitting there. So obviously that was awkward, but when she gets to me, she doesn't tell me anything. She does tell me that she has to lighten in my root to get me to my desired look, and that she's gonna lighten up the whole thing. I agree to it because obviously I am not the professional, I'm going to her because I'm assuming she knows what's best for my hair. Long story short I leave with orange hair. She didn't want to blow dry it because she said that was extra. I said OK but I was confused because I would assume that if she just adjusted my hair to what I wanted, she would want to see the final look as well to see if she achieved the overall goal. So I left with my hair wet and when I got home, I dried it, and I automatically hated it. I left with orange hair. I couldn't believe that I paid over $400 just to look like this and cried. I called another Salon and when they saw my hair, they couldn't believe that they let me walk out the door like that. She didn't understand why my hair was so orange, knowing that my root was not going to match it. In the end, I went to get a fix somewhere else and she bleached my hair the way I wanted it and fixed the root color of my hair. I didn't want to write this review but this was my experience and I just wanted to share it.

This is a hidden gem.... I am very loyal and i was with my last stylist for 7 years before i moved…read moreto miami. For more than a year i have been going all over town in coral gables, brickell area only to find places that had an attitude, as if they were superior or better than everyone else, with honestly mediocre skills and ridiculous prices. I found manolo through a friend and i am so happy i did because the moment i called for an appointment i knew i had finally found my stylist for life. He has been in this business forever, he is a genius at what he does. He is excellent with color, and cut, dry is a breeze for him. He is incredibly hard working, flexible, understanding, super approachable and just so much fun.. He is passionate for what he does as he should be as the magic he creates basically has the power to get u that interview, get you a date, a promotion or make you feel confident and beautiful knowing you look great.. Coming from a girl who hates going to get her hair done, and finds that to be a chore, i can definitely cannot wait until due for my next appointment...u will not be disappointed. He is really good...

I posted the same review under Hairloom which is The name under which the Groupon falls. But it's…read moreactually Manolo Grove! Manolo Grove in coconut grove, it's a small studio with that at home feel. With only 3 chairs for clients to have hair cut in, you feel safe and appropriately distanced. They are staying safe for covid and wearing masks and wiping down the chairs and everything in between clients. Carlos is INCREDIBLE. My highlights are absolutely flawless and the cut is to perfection. Appointment only and having a few hours for each appointment allows Carlos to focus on just you for as much time as needed until you're satisfied. I used the Groupon which was a great deal! Downsides: They don't accept credit card. Only Venmo and Zelle Parking: with construction and everything in coconut grove, it is really difficult to find parking. The closest VISIBLE garage Mayfair Garage is $18 for three hours and I went on a week day. It is REALLY hard to find. Better to google Venues in the Grove or the Blonde Tulip, which are across the street from the plaza in which Manolo is located. You go to the bottom floor, and it's in Suite 10. And a tip is that the closest garage is actually next to the Blonde Tulip (unsure the price) Because of the difficulty finding the place and parking, I give it 4 stars. But if it were just about the service and hairstylist, it would get a full five. Will definitely be returning to Carlos!!

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

Kathy was prompt in responding to my appointment request and educating me regarding the different prices for a women's cut. I arrived to my appointment and was immediately greeted and seated. Paola was my hairstylist and she was absolutely exceptional!!! She was extremely detail oriented (asking me questions about my typical style preferences that no stylist has ever asked before) and did an absolutely amazing job. She was able to execute the style I wanted perfectly! Not only was Paola detail oriented but she was also very efficient - my shampoo, cut, and blow dry was done in about an hour. The overall vibe of the salon was another thing that stood out to me - it was pretty laid back and relaxing, allowing me to feel at ease throughout my whole appointment! I found my new local stylist, Paola, & go to salon! Thank you!

This haircut took 2.5 hours when it should only be taking an hour. My hair was constantly pulled at and tugged at. Felt as if I was being scalped. On top of that my hairdresser just kept cutting and cutting went way too short for my liking. No hair oil was used, curled my hair with a 350 degree iron with NO heat protectant. Probably one of the most expensive haircuts I've gotten yet the worst.

I have been a loyal client here for months, but my recent experience was deeply unprofessional…read more While one stylist was kind and helpful with my hair, the rest of my visit was handled poorly. I was met with a confrontational and dismissive attitude from other staff members when. The situation escalated unnecessarily with constant interruptions and visible tension from the team, which created an extremely uncomfortable and distressing environment for me. A professional salon should prioritize a welcoming atmosphere unfortunately, this visit was not. Skill and talent are meaningless if clients are not treated with basic kindness, respect, and compassion. I sincerely hope changes are made so no one else experiences what I did.

Reasonable pricing too - in Coral Gables where most salons are outrageously priced. I needed a perm. I have straight fine hair and wanted it wavy/curly. I've been getting them for decades so I know what I want and need, but my prior hairdresser retired. I found out that not many places even do perms without an initial "consultation". I checked around, called some places I did not use, then called Avalon. I confirmed they do perms, got an appointment, and got it done. Hair looks great. I'm certainly going to go back for future perms, cuts and possibly - colors! Highly recommended.
