The Hair Salon Forum

Ladies, where do you get your hair cut and how much do you pay?

I had not had my hair cut by a professional since 2011 (I cut it myself). Last November, I went to the Changing Room in Aventura but did not think the stylist did a better job than I do myself (which isn't saying much). I could try a different stylist there, but I live in Miami Beach, so getting to Aventura is kind of a drag.

Any recommendations in / near Miami Beach? I have curly hair, so I prefer it if a salon does NOT wash it (anything other than specially formulated shampoo creates massive frizz) and I do NOT want them to "style" it because if they blow out the curls, it will hide a disaster. It's WAY harder to cut curly hair and have it look good than straight hair.

I would also like to add that while I am not "cheap", I dislike wasting money and in my 52 years on this planet, I have yet to have a good hair cut, even after paying $$$$ for a Ouidad curl "specialist", so bonus if the cut is on the affordable end of things.
