The staff actually listens. Not the nod-and-do-their-own-thing kind of listening, but real listening. My stylist took time to understand what I wanted, explained options clearly, and delivered a result that somehow looked effortless and intentional at the same time. The space is clean, modern, and relaxing without feeling cold or pretentious. Every detail feels considered, from the products they use to the way the appointment flows without feeling rushed. I walked out feeling refreshed, put-together, and already planning my next visit. If you want skill, professionalism, and results that make you do a double-take in the mirror later, Avant-Garde absolutely delivers. Highly recommend. ‍

From the moment I walk in, I feel genuinely cared for, and the staff always goes above and beyond to make me feel welcome. They always answer the phone right away and are super helpful in finding appointment times that fit my schedule. I've visited the salon 2-3 times a year since moving to Miami, and every visit has been a wonderful experience. Whether I want to chat or need to get some work done while my hair is being styled, they are considerate and accommodating. My hair is not easy to work with, and I've had my share of bad experiences at other salons. But from day one, Andrea knew exactly how to handle my hair. He listened carefully to my preferences, offered helpful advice, and I left the salon feeling incredibly happy with the result!! That has been my consistent experience every time I return. I always get compliments on my hair after a visit--both for the cut and the color. Andrea somehow manages to get my hair blond without damaging it, which I've never experienced with any other hairdresser. By the second time I called to set up an appointment, they already recognized me, and I was excited to return. I'll be very sad if I ever have to move and stop going here! As a European, I can say they feel like my Italian family here in Miami. I always leave with a great hairstyle and in a great mood. I highly recommend this place to anyone!!

I called and made my appointment for Friday, 08/27 @ 2:00 pm. This salón is walking distance from where I work. So that is very convenient. When I got there I was greeted by a very nice lady. I think Ramona is her name. She checked the appointment book and told me to sit and wait a moment for my manicurist. My manicurist Adriana was very nice and professional. First she did my pedicure. Then she did my manicure. I noticed that she used a disposable manicure set. Now days that is very important. I felt at home right away and I love that. Graciela's the owner is very nice and pleasant. I'm glad I found this salon and I will be going back in 2 weeks.

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.

Probably one of the most expensive haircuts I've gotten yet the worst.

After looking around different neighborhoods I found BASE. The first thing I noticed about this salon is that they have appointments available to book online. This is SO convenient to those who work weird hours. I feel it also works with the business because they don't have to be answering the phone constantly. I initially booked an appointment to have a consultation which was free of charge. I showed up and was greeted immediately by name. They knew me from my appointment which was impressive. I then met Ashley. So sweet and thorough. She gave me an estimate on how much my hair was going to be. She asked me what I really wanted for my hair in my dream world. I told her and she told me she would try and make it happen. I returned about two weeks later to finally get it done. WOW WOW WOW. It took many hours to achieve what I wanted but it happened. Ashley and her whole team was so amazing. They made my hair look like it had never looked before. They even offered to come back if I wasn't satisfied with my hair two week guarantee. I have no reason to go back. My hair looks so beautiful and I am so happy. Thank you Ashley and team for the great service and HAIR! :)

The Merrick Park Madison Reed location knocked it out of the park, literally!!! A huge THANK YOU to…read moreall the staff there, especially Indira and Savannah! These 2 ladies helped shape my new view of Madison Reed. They, and the other 2 staff members are exceptional representatives of this brand. Long story short. I went to another location last month, day before my birthday. My experience was not the best from start to finish. I hung in trying to be understanding of being someone's last appointment and they were exhausted and or inexperienced when left alone with multiple clients. Whatever the case, I was left with dark, large dye marks 2 inches from hairline on my forehead and temple, had dye marks on both ears, cheeks, and back of neck. I was told nothing could be done and there was no product there available to try to remove stains left by colorist who had already left. I went home and had to wash face/hair after paying for my blow out. I considered canceling the membership I just signed up for because now I was leaving on a birthday trip not like I payed to look for the celebration. Hesitant, I made another appointment, but, this time at Merrick Park location. Both Indira and Savannah listened to my past experience and went above and beyond to rectify it. I am so grateful to them both for their professionalism, expertise, and kindness. I am more than satisfied with the color, the styling. I recommend THIS Madison Reed location!!!!

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED…read more The first time I went to Annia, my hairstylist, I paid $500 for my hair service. At the end of the appointment, she told me she was tired and asked if she could finish my roots another day. Because I trusted her and tried to be understanding, I agreed. Looking back, being too nice is exactly what led me into this situation. Two weeks later, I returned only for her to finish the roots she had left unfinished. That was all she was supposed to do. Instead of focusing on my appointment, Annia was working on another client at the same time. The other client, who was also an employee of the salon, kept talking about needing to leave for a party. Annia repeatedly said out loud that she was stressed and overwhelmed. As the paying customer who had already paid $500, I expected my appointment to receive the attention and care it deserved. I had specifically shown her a photo of exactly what I wanted: a very small root shadow, approximately the width of my pinky finger, so my natural dark brown hair could grow out naturally. Instead, because she was rushing and distracted, she applied far more dark color than I requested. The moment she did it, I told her it was way too much. She knew immediately she had made a mistake. Then she attempted to remove the excess dark color. I repeatedly told her not to damage my hair because I was happy with my blonde color and knew my hair had already been processed recently. Despite knowing my hair was fragile, she tried removing the color with bleach under running water. My hair could not survive it. She fried it. She broke it. She damaged the color I had spent years maintaining. While the other client left the salon happy, I was left sitting there for hours while Annia tried to figure out how to fix what had happened to my hair. She admitted she felt terrible because she knew she had damaged my color. When I got home, my hair felt like wet pasta. It became gummy, stretchy, fragile, and impossible to properly brush or blow dry without fear of further breakage. The very next day I sent her videos and photographs documenting the damage. At first, she apologized and asked me to forgive her. She told me my hair could not be touched for at least a month and promised she would help fix it. I believed her. As time went on, the salon owner also became aware of what had happened. She was informed about the damage to my hair and the situation surrounding my appointment. As the owner of the salon, I expected her to step in, address the issue, and help find a resolution. Instead, she did nothing to help and failed to take responsibility for what happened in her salon. I trusted her. Unfortunately, after weeks of sending photos, videos, and updates, everything changed. Instead of taking responsibility, I was eventually told the damage was somehow my fault. I was accused of using cheap products. I was called crazy. I have the text messages. I have the screenshots. I have the photos. I have the proof showing exactly what I requested and exactly what happened afterward. For more than three weeks, I suffered emotionally and physically from the damage done to my hair. I had one of the worst Mother's Days of my life. I did not want to leave my house. I did not want to go to my office. My confidence and self-esteem were shattered. As someone who has spent years growing and maintaining healthy blonde hair, I understand the investment required. I take Nutrafol vitamins that cost approximately $280 per month. I purchase professional-grade shampoos, conditioners, masks, oils, and treatments. I have spent years caring for my hair. Anyone who maintains blonde hair knows it is not cheap. After damaging my hair, Annia sent me partially used products and instructed me to perform treatments at home instead of bringing me back into the salon to personally provide the care and treatments herself. When I realized I was not getting help, I contacted the salon owner. As a business owner myself, I believed the owner would understand customer rights and take responsibility for what happened inside her salon. Instead, I was ignored. I was told I would receive a call back. That call never came. Weeks later, I am still waiting. At this point, this is no longer only about the $500 I paid for services. This is about accountability. This is about the extensive damage to my hair. This is about the emotional distress, loss of confidence, additional salon visits, treatments, products, vitamins, and extensions I will now have to purchase because of what happened. I am keeping records of every expense. I am documenting every treatment. I am saving every receipt. I will continue to pursue this matter until it is resolved fairly. No amount of money can give me back the years it took to grow and care for my hair. But customers have rights. And I refuse to stay silent.
