Salon Santiago

Hi, My Name is April and I am searching for a great hair stylist. My mother in law is a hair dresser and she will be moving away so will not be able to do my hair any more. She is the best at my hair, I have very curly hair and long. Love to have it highlighted and kept long. In the past I have had some bad experiences getting my hair cut. One of them is that people seem to get scissor happy with my hair and again I want to keep it long. It can be done I have had it done by many times. So if you have anyone in mind that you would think that would do a great job please let me know. I also like my hair straightened once in awhile usually when I get it cut in a salon. Thank you more

Salon Santiago is a wonderful salon. My stylist is Dorrie and have been going to her for a year. I wish I found her sooner! I have always had a difficult time trying to find a stylist that can do blond highlights. My hair either ended up fried and dry or brassy. She's one in a million! The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. Everyone that works in the salon is friendly and always remembers who I am. They also have their own hair product line that i can't live without! it was great to use while I was pregnant because it is paraben free. I have recommended this salon to friends and will continue to do so. more

I visited Salon Santiago for the first time yesterday (6/26) for a haircut and brow/lip wax. I can't tell you how amazing I feel just from a simple haircut & wax. Francesca did my wax and I think it was the gentlest thing I've ever experienced. She used wax for sensitive skin on me and I didn't get red or itchy like I've done in the past with regular wax. I always thought that was just what happens when you get waxed -- skin gets red & irritated -- but Francesca showed me differently, and I'm officially spoiled. :-) James was my stylist and I must say, I'm nursing a bit of a stylist crush. Within moments of me trying to describe what I wanted (something with lots of texture & edges that works with my short fine hair), he knew exactly what I was trying to get at and was raring to go with a razor cut. Well, he didn't have to tell me twice, because I LOVE razor cuts and have had a hell of a time trying to get a good one since I moved down here in 2004. James was the first stylist I've met who loves razor cuts as much as I do and enjoys doing them. I love how he just went to town with the razor on my hair, making quick focused cuts all over my head. When he was done cutting, he put some of the salon's own Soy Fix in my hair which made all the texture really come out, and made me nearly squeal with happiness. I've had my short textured look for about 10 years now and James revitalized it for me and made me feel amazing. When I was done, I felt like I'd been to the spa. That's how happy, relieved, and relaxed I felt afterward. I feel like I've found the Holy Grail of hair salons -- knowledgeable professionals who enjoy what they're doing and do it very well. Francesca & James are great, talented people who are clearly interested in giving customers a great experience and I can't say enough good things about them. I'll definitely be back in 6 weeks for another cut & wax! Thanks, Salon Santiago!! Pros: Customer oriented, talented professionals, lovely salon more

Trying to find a salon in South Florida that really knows what it is doing can be daunting...but I have found one, Salon Santiago! Pros: Friendly, Knowledgeable Staff more

I moved to Fort Lauderdale from NYC and was very nervous about finding a new colorist. Dory was very nice and low pressure. I brought my old color recipe and she reviewed it and worked with me to get the color I want. She is always open to suggestions and does her best to make her clients are happy. In addition, she will listen to suggestions and explain why or why not your suggestions will work. She does not expect us to be experts, but I feel comfortable with her suggestions because she explains the reasoning. The salon always has good music and a stress-free atmosphere. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Deanna Pros: Low stress, friendly, professional more

As a fashion photographer I have worked with many hair stylists and makeup artists through out my career and have found that that the staff at Salon Santiago are both personable and talented which makes for such a great experience!

I went to Salon Santiago for the first time and I love it, the atmosphere, the friendlyness of everyone and to top it off Antonio he did a great job with my hair. I recommend it 100%. Pros: Everything about it more

After living in South Florida for the past 5 years I finally found a hair stylist that ""gets it"" Antonio (i think he's one of the owners) is a true genius when it comes to hair he was able to transform me from a mess to the best I've ever looked since I moved here. Definitely worth a try. Pros: by far the best Cons: 15 min wait more

I thought I would be in for a real treat after reading the reviews and I requested Antonio. What a disappointment. I wanted a layered cut and it looked like he put a bowl over my head and trimmed around the edge of the bowl. Just another salon with an expensive menu and some prducts with their name on them that dont even work that well. Weight too expensive for what they do. Pros: clean bathroom Cons: VERY OVERPRICED more

I recently had my hair colored, highlited, and a cut from James Wronowski. He was professional, personable and extremely talented. I was ecstatic when I saw the finished look. When I went to work the next day I received many compliments. I recommended Salon Santiago to all who inquired and told them to ask for James. . Pros: James is the best stylist in Ft Lauderdale, FL Cons: None............... more

Not to mention the great reception that i recived walking in. The saff is so warm and inviting it made the time sent there so enjoyable. So to those looking for a great salon and a great experience i highly recomend SALON SANTIAGO. Pros: Perfect more

My experience was amazing! that is all I can say about it. I have tried almost ALL of the Miami CitySearches best of salons in miami and have been disappointed, sometimes even angry and definitely broke every single time so I decided to try broward for once and see what salon's they had to offer. And I have found ""the one""! Salon was clean, comfortable, relaxing, the people were incredibly kind and professional. They knew exactly what they were doing and took the time to listen to every detail i wanted and discuss my entire treatment with me. I have NEVER been happier with my color, my highlights, my cut and my hair overall. Im extremely pleasantly surprise and pleased and will not go to another salon in Dade County again. Thank you Salon Santiago, thank you!!! Pros: everything more

I went here based on the great review from citysearch, but was incredibly disappointed. I had a simple trim and blowdry done. The trim came out uneven and the stylist left my hair so frizzy. I told her while she was doing it that it didn't look right and she said that's how they do it. It was unbeleivable - I do my own hair bettter than this place and I'm not a professional. In the end, I let the owner know what a terrible experience I had and he re-styled my hair, but I was not impressed. Cons: Uneven cut and horrible blowdry more
