I agree with the others on this site. JB truly takes the time to listen to what you want, and is focused on giving you what YOU want and not what a stylist thinks you should have. When I went the first time I had very badly damaged hair that was breaking off like crazy from all the color damage. I had home colored my hair to the point that it was unrecognizable on any color scale. I actually had a man come up to me in the street in a foreign country and ask me "What color is your hair?!?" That's bad. Just one visit and almost all of the nasty brassiness is gone and I"m getting my blonde back. One of the nice things is that JB focuses first on getting your hair healthy, so he won't do a bunch of things all at once that will add damage even if he could make more money by doing it. Healthy hair first. Yayyy! Otherwise you wouldn't be a return customer because you wouldn't have hair. It may take 2-3 visits to get my color and condition back, but I'm well on the way now, and have another appt. this week. I relied on the posts on this site, and they were right. But do be on time - its sooo nice that here in Miami someone is right on time and not Miami time. :) Pros: Takes time to listen, special focus on color correction Cons: None

I was looking for a new stylist and came across JB Veltman. My first impression was lasting... he took the time to listen to what I needed and I got the results JB understands his clients and truly is a fabulous artist! My hair has never looked better. I have very difficult hair, and JB is the only one I would trust with it! So glad I found him. His assistant Kara is wonderful too!!! I really enjoy going in to see them both. :)

I came to JB with messed up highlights and he gradually transformed my hair into the most beautiful it's ever been. He is truly experienced in every way--he listens to you and combines your wants with his expertise to create the healthiest, most gorgeous hair. I can't imagine going anywhere else now. Plus, his assistant Kara is--no lie--THE best scalp massager EVER. We've all gotten our hair shampooed at places where they only care to wash it, but Kara really digs in for a good amount of time, resulting in the best scalp massage you could ever dream of. Basically, you won't regret going to JB. TRUST ME.

I went to J.B. Veltman looking for a new salon and was pleasantly surprised. I am a very picky customer and J.B. and his staff made me feel at home. My hair needed a different color of highlights and he was very attentive and professional. The highlights he did were very natural and complimentary to my skin color. He also styled my hair and it looked thicker and shinier than ever. Overall his service was excellent. Pros: service Cons: none

I recently moved and had to find a new hair stylist. I went to JB because of these reviews. I am VERY VERY picky as to how my hair is treated and done as well as the person who is touching it. So it took some courage to go, however I am so glad I did. JB listens and does what you say about your hair instead of telling you what should, can and can't be done. That alone is hard to find in many stylists. Thanks to JB I have gorgeous colored healthy hair that I am very happy about. Pros: everything Cons: nothing

I had a great expereince with JB Veltman after getting tired of trying all the "trendy" over priced salons in the area - where I was almost always left with a very average style and unnatual highlights. JB gave great recommendations about how to style my hair. I never felt like he was tkaing advantage of me by pressuring me to do ore to my hair than was necessary. He is honest and it is obvious very good at what he does. My hair color has never looked more natural or as beautiful. For someone looking for quality, I highly recommend JB. Pros: Quality cut, Natural highlights, Professional Cons: None

I felt compelled to write a review of my experience with JB Veltman, since I was lucky enough to find him here on CitySearch. My first impression of the salon was Cara, JB?s Assistant. She met me at the door and I immediately liked her. She is adorable, sweet, personable and very attentive. While most salons in Miami make you feel like you?ve walked into a club in South Beach, with tons of affected people attempting to out trend each other. Walking into JB?s, you instantly feel as comfortable and relaxed as if you stopped by a friend?s house. The salon is small and each client receives JB?s undivided attention. I was early for my appointment, so I was introduced to JB as he was blowing out a client?s hair. As I watched JB interact with his client, I quickly realized he was a warm, funny, unassuming and artistic person. I relaxed into the couch, sure I was in good hands. Just as I suspected, my whole experience with JB was an absolute delight! I have naturally dark hair and have been coloring my hair blonde for years. My previous colorists left my hair brassy, damaged and an unnatural blonde. When I walked out of JB?s salon I was left with the prettiest color my hair has ever seen and the assurance from now on my hair is in great hands! Thanks JB! You and Cara are the best! Love, Kim Pros: Highly Skilled Colorist and Stylist, No Product Pushing, Amazing Results

JB is funny and quite a haircutting craftsman. Never had a bad haircut here! The price is a little high, but well worth the price. I would recommend for a good haircut.
