Best

I did my hair with all three: Patricia, Cristian and Gustavo. I am very hard to please. All three have "wowed" me. Patricia has a keen eye for precision and symmetry, and her h...

best haircut I've ever had 1/9/2009

I brought a picture into the Gustavo briand Studio and I left with the haristyle i had imagined. Gustavo spent about two hours personally making my hair look exactly like the picture and he even stayed until 7:40, 40 minutes past closing, making sure it was perfect. The service was incredible, i felt more like a guest than a costumer and Gustavo was sincerely interested in my ideas for the haricut as well as friendly. I'm so glad I chose to get my hair cut here. Thank you so much Gustavo! Pros: amazing Cons: none more

Bad Haircut 12/2/2008

I told the woman there i did not want to cut my hair too short. i just wanted layers in the front. I got layers throughout my hair and although she did not cut the bottom bottom portion of my hair everything else was completely layered and short. She did not listened to me at all. she just did her own thing. I think her name was patricia. Horrible haircut. My hair is all chopped up! more

Treated great by everyone there,best haircut! 10/21/2008

Last week my aunt took me to get my hair cut and dyed by a hairstylist named Patricia. My hair is naturally wavy curly and short,when I walked in it was above my shoulders and very boxy looking very boring and one length everywhere around.It was also very uneven Patricia fixed everything! Made it even gave me a funky hip hairstyle wiith lots of layers all around and made me like my hair even the way it looks when it's wavy/curly! I love the way it looks now. All the hair stylists that work there are very nice and made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend anyone looking for a haircut to go see Patricia at Gustavo Briand studio. Pros: service was great! Everyone was very nice! more

Amazing haircut! 10/13/2008

I had my hair cut last month before going on a cruise. Patricia did my hair. She is an amazing hair stylist! I am extremely picky and have a complex cut, in that it requires a lot of layering. She did a beautiful job and I couldn't be happier. The level of professionalism at the salon was excellent, everyone was very kind. I will definitely be going back for a trim and mabe some color! more

The Holy Grail of Color...Best Experience Ever! 9/7/2008

Gustavo Briand is by far the best coloring experience I have ever had. I went in a bit worried because I had a horrible experience with color at a salon here in Coral Gables which is supposed to be one of the best. I found a place that fixed it, the John Barrett Salon, but it is in New York City! I was close to flying there yesterday just to get my highlights done but then I found Gustavo Briand. I left the Gustavo Briand Hair Studio with better quality hair than when I walked in, even after doing more highlights!! I will never go to another colorist again if I can help it. The staff is fun and entertaining to say the least and Gustavo is truely an artist. The color itself looks completely natural...I went from brunette to blonde and it's impressive to say the least. I've only had it for one day and everyone I've run into is amazed at how real and healthy it looks. My hair feels like it did before it had been colored! I have been to the most expensive and talked up salons in Miami and New York and I swear by Gustavo Briand! His goal is to color hair without destroying it. He even uses special foam sheets instead of aluminum foil for highlights to save the environment. It was my first time with him so he explained his philosophy and that he buys the best quality products, despite the cost. He feels it really makes a difference, and it does. I was amazed. He is, in my experience, the best! If you are looking for fantastic color, and a great experience, this is the place to go! more

Best salon experience ever!! 8/24/2008

Gustavo Briand Studio is without a doubt the most amazing salon ever! I went to them for a corrective color procedure to change my hair color from black to brown (which is almost chemically impossible to achieve in one visit), and it came out absolutly perfect! You have to go see Cristian the next time you color your hair.... and for the best haircut to go with the perfect hair color, go see Patricia. Everyone there is so attentive and super sweet! You will be amazed with how great your hair looks! Pros: Best color and cut ever! Cons: expensive, but worth it. more

Best Haircut Ever! 8/19/2008

I've never been so impressed with a haircut before. When I went into Gustavo Briand Studio, my hair was a hot mess. It had been cut so poorly, so many times, it was difficult to see the potential that my hair had. I sat down with Patricia, and after she heard what I wanted in a haircut, she whipped up something FAB-U-LOUS. I walked out of the studio feeling like a new person. Everyone was so incredibly nice and they made you feel right at home. I'm never going any place else. Thank you Patricia and Gustavo! Pros: Everything! more

Sooo Very nice!!! 8/13/2008

I have been long searching for a stylist that knows how to work with long curly/wavy hair and I finally found someone at this salon. I went to see Patricia after reading the countless reviews on here, and I have to say that she did not disappoint! She took her time with my hair and did a fantastic job. I also have to say that she spent some time before my haircut discussing my hair and what I wanted to do....which you would think all hair dressers would do, but incredibly never happens. All in all the experience was perfect!! The salon is beautiful and everyone was lovely and super friendly. EVERYONE!! Really truly what a salon experience should always be. Edited, 1/17/09 I was hesitant to write this but I feel I must be honest. Although I feel Patricia is a wonderful person and hair dresser. I returned to this salon again for a second time in November and I was disappointed. I wanted a few layers in the front, but I left with choppy layers throughout my hair. I didn't say anything when I was there because I wanted to give myself time to maybe adjust to the cut. But, it's been 2 1/2 months and I hate my hair. Please, please be sure that you keep your eyes on her and be very specific about exactly how you want your hair. I tend to like more classic cuts since I have long hair and I feel I got a cut that was technically very good, but better suited for straight hair. Not wavy/curly hair like mine. Hope this helps!! Pros: Excellent service, good parking, very friendly! Cons: None more

Patricia 8/7/2008

I was afraid after some bad previous esperiences with my hair to get a hair cut at a new place, so I did some research for Top Hair Salon and Gustavo Briand Studio came about. I called them first and to my surprised Gustavo himself answered the phone, very politly. I got an appointment the same day I called, had to make some changes to my appointment time and again nicely enough they did not give me a hassel and they let me go in anyways. But the best was PATRICIA, my hair stylist, for the firts time ever someone was able to cut my wavy hair to a style that I liked, she took her time and did A GREAT JOB. I Totally Recomend her, I'll never let anyone else cut my hair!!! The meter parking is a pain, I have to admit. Otherwise great place, great people. ELAIMY Pros: PATRICIA, HAIR STYLIST & THE STAFF Cons: METER PARKING, A BIT PRICY more

Excellent cuts for wavy or curly hair 8/4/2008

I had been looking for a while for a place that does excellent cuts with very wavy, medium curly hair. I found THE best stylist at Gustavo Briand salon. Went to see specifically Patricia in mid July - she was awesome. Precision cuts, didn't create "pouffiness" or the "mushroom effect" you often get with very wavy hair that goes shorter, and she really listened and took her time. Gustavo was also there doing another client's hair and the banter between them and me and the other client was great - felt like making great friends. Ask for Patricia if you want an amazing cut!!! Loved it even after I washed it and now weeks later!! Pros: Precision cut by Patricia!! Cons: A bit pricey so I cant come every 8-10 weeks! Metered parking is a pain... more

Best haircut, Talented Staff...this is the place I've been looking for! 8/4/2008

I had a great experience at the Gustavo Briand Studio Salon. I was looking for a stylist to help me tame my crazy hair. I have thick hair and a lot of it, and it has recently been relaxed and treated with a Brazillian treatment. While the curl and frizz have mellowed out some, my hair had NO shape. I was walking around with what I referred to as a bird's nest. I'm not painting a pretty picture, but needless to say, scrunchies and headbands were my security blankets. I wanted a style that would enable me to wear my hair curly- natural and also blow-dry straight. I don't mind spending time working on my hair a couple of days a week, but I did also want something that would be an alternative, natural and low-maintenance, chic look. It didn't take very long for me to realize that I felt very at ease in Patricia's expert hands. She was very meticulous, measuring out her perfect layers. She was lovely and with boundless patience. Also, I Never had anyone tame my hair with just a paddle brush! She didn't use a round brush, nor did she use a flat iron. I knew that I had found the right stylist, and I feel very fortunate to have found this little gem of a place. Pros: Great Haircut, Talented, Experienced Staff Cons: Expensive but worth every penny more

They fixed my hair! 7/22/2008

I LOVE GUSTAVO'S SALON! Seriously! My hair was the darkest brown, pretty much black before. I went to some guy where I live here in Port Charlotte, FL. I wanted a dirty/sandy blond again. My hair use to be all blond a year and a half ago. He told me it was no problem and RUINED my hair! He turned it Orange =[ I looked like a tiger with black and orange stripes. On top of that, he promised he would fix it and begged me to return. I felt like I had no choice so I did... and he ruined my hair even more! My hair was FRIED at the ends.. My hair that was once sooo long and silky.. was destroyed =[ I cried for days I had to wear a hat. So I told myself I was going to the best salon in Miami. I figured someone there HAD to fix my hair some what. So I found Gustavo's here on City Search under best color and highlights. I drove 3 hours to to see Gustavo and his AMAZING salon! And it was MORE then worth it! CRISTIAN did my hair... it took so long, but he did it! HE FIXED IT. My hair was a beautiful soft dirty blond! TONS of natural highlights! PATRICIA cut off all the damaged hair and styled it, she did a PERFECT job. The team at Gustavo's salon are ALL kind, warm, funny, wonderful people. They are NOT stuck up at all. I felt so at home there. Unfortunately I didn't tip them enough =[ no where near what they should of gotten! I'll fix that when I see them again =] And that will be very soon. I told myself I would go to Miami once to get my all over hair fixed, then find another salon that was some what closer to just get my roots done... but I just can't bring myself to doing that. I'm going back. Thank you: Gustavo, Cristian and Patricia! =] Pros: EVERYTHING! Cons: NOTHING! more

Fantastic cut and color 7/8/2008

One month after my visit and my hair is looking better than ever. This was one of the best cuts I ever had: Gustavo listened carefully as I described my lifestyle and the way I wanted my hair to look and act. He was able to perfectly execute my requests, and his suggestion for a slight tweak in color had an equally good result. A haircut and color at this salon is on my must-do list for my next trip to Miami. Pros: Relaxed ambience, highly skilled personnel, excellent service, convenient location. Cons: None more

Just what you are looking for!!! 6/25/2008

It is certainly not easy to find the right salon and even harder to find the right stylist. Well, you will be pleased to find all that you are looking for at Gustavo Briand Studio, I certainly did! This relaxing, quaint yet chique atmosphere allows you to be at ease the moment you walk in. I was aprehensive about trying out a new place and person, after all, I've to got live with the cut. To my delight, the raving reviews were all true and I was quickly put at ease. Patricia welcomed me, gave me a consulation (she was right on point) and was extremely easy to talk to and a great listener (essencial factors that are often missing in other salons). It was evident, this girl knows her stuff!! Her attention to detail, functionality and style really made me appreciate the profession. She was an artist at work (no BS, she truly is great) and made me feel so transformed it was fantastic!! That day I could have walked a runway. Even more impressive, she showed me how to keep my hair looking salon sassy with no effort -- Wow... it is so great to get keep haircut looking as good as the day you got it. Enough said, GO TO Gustavo Briand Studio -- comfort, professionalism, friendliness and your new reliable stylist all in one ---it is all worth it!! (I will be flying back to Miami for my cut at Gustavo Briand Studio. Thanks Patricia) Pros: everything you could imagine in a stylist Cons: none! more

great customer service... 6/19/2008

I just wanted to say thank you to Patricia, Gustavo and the wonderful staff at Gustavo Briand. I moved to Miami from New York a year ago and have been unhappy with all my friends recommendations (i guess im a bit of a hair snob), so i must say how relieved I was to find this place. Ive only been once, but Im already addicted. The place is very small so they are able to focus all their attention on their clients and their attention to detail is remarkable. Patricia spent nearly an hour and a half cutting my hair just right, Now if I could only find a good dentist... Pros: Parking, staff, service, attention to detail... Cons: none more

Talk to Cristian.- 6/12/2008

I don?t know how Cristian managed to style my hair in ways I never thought I could imagine, He seems to get the exact color that I request. I have had my hair done at many salons and I have never been able to have a consistent stylist because at some point something goes wrong, either my hair comes out orange or very damaged. My hair has never looked as shiny and healthy as it does now, since I have been going to G.B. If you are looking for stylists that are dedicated to give you the look that you want, then check out Gustavo Briand Studio, and definitely ask for Cristian. Valeshka Ronishty more

And they are good. 6/11/2008

I am very picky about getting my color done, but as soon as I walked in to Gustavo Briand Studio, I new it? they have to be good. First off the atmosphere is great and so are the people working there. Cristian is amazing, he understood exactly what I wanted done with my hair, and picked out an amazing shade for my color. My hair never looked better. I felt like a model with the service that I received. Even though I live about 40 min. away from the salon, I still go for the drive because its really worth it! more
