The Changing Room

Let’s start off with I’m a beauty school drop out, that being said I’ve been doing my own hair for a long time. I’ve had a Mohawk for 17 years, I cut it and color it myself, but by doing this I’ve damaged my hair beyond repair, or so I thought. I was referred by a friend and even though i have trust issues with other people doing my hair, I wanted to get pampered and have someone help me fix my mistakes.
Upon arriving to the salon I was greeted just like a normal person (despite my edgy look) I was there to see Nicole. Everybody was so happy in the salon, they showed me to her chair and offered me some coffee or water. I met Nicole and we discussed some different color options that I had. I wanted to do a color scheme similar to a peacock. So she went to work and we did purple, green, turquoise, and blue and it looks amazing. She also recommended that we use Olaplex to strengthen the hair from the inside out, eliminating breakage while adding shine and locking in color.
After the color Courtney shampooed me and let me tell you, that is one shampoo I won’t forget lol. I sat back down with Nicole and got about 2 inches cut off my Mohawk and she even shaved down the sides. She also advised me that I’ve been cutting my hair thinner so we left it to grow thicker in some spots. I’m in love with my new hair color and cut. I will be returning to this salon from now on. I highly recommend this salon to anybody, they truly are a full service salon. The prices are very reasonable plus if its your first time they will send you a $ 5 dollar off coupon for your next visit. Another happy customer.

I found this salon many many years ago. One of the best things that happened to my hair and me. This is a lovely family owned salon and everyone who works there are like family, warm caring people.
Mgr is the best, she is on it, you need something she is always there. I use stylists Andrea and Emmy they have done miracles for my hair. I see one of them every week, great cuts, blow-​outs, color, highlights makeup for special occasions always great. Nails, pedicure, wax, the very best is Dulce. I will never leave the Changing Room.

Let me begin by saying I haven’t really been happy with the color of my hair since I moved out of state six years ago. However, that all changed the day I stepped into the Salon and met Hairstylist Stephanie. This woman is a miracle worker with damaged, blond hair. Stephanie really listened to my concerns and where I wanted the color to go. The end result was beyond amazing. My hair now looks and feels like a healthy, shiny, true natural dark ash blonde with highlights. I’m still in awe at how beautiful my hair looks thanks to the very talented Miss Stephanie!!! I look forward to being a client for life.

I needed to look gorgeous for a gala this evening so decided to try out TCR after reading all the positive reviews here. I booked my appt the day before and the reception staff was attentive and gave me a choice of two stylists for the timeframe/​service I sought as well as their prices. I chose Stephanie. At first glance, the salon is nestled in a corner in a strip mall but one you enter, it is bustling with over ten stylists and lots of customers. I was immediately greeted by reception and asked to fill out a new client form. Just basic questions: name, address, cell no., birthday, etc. I did bring my teen daughter with me and asked if someone could give her a manicure while I got my hair done and they were accommodating and immediately set her up with Dulce. I waited for about ten minutes and Stephanie came over and introduced herself and escorted me to the hair washing area where Courtney took over. I liked that Courtney told me her name and was very attentive and asked whether I wanted one wash or two and conditioner on roots only or entire head. I told Stephanie what I wanted as far as my desired evening style and she did a fantastic job and did not disappoint. Overall, the salon merited a 5-​star review for their excellent customer service from start to finish. I highly recommend TCR to anyone looking for instant beautification!!!

Amazing! I have been going here since I moved to Miami. 5 years with Kimberly and she always gets it right. What I like is she listens to what I want and gives me the hair color and cut I am looking for. The staff is always friendly, however the only compliant I have is the front desk girls. Sometimes they can be a little rude while making appointments, but don’t let that scare you away because the stylist are amazing!

Where do I begin?! Let me start off by saying I’m so glad I found Silvia who is such a talented hair artist, she listens to your needs and gives feedback on what would actually work and look good! I go religiously for a color & cut and wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else! Everyone is so nice & accommodating from the moment you walk in the door to the moment you check out! I highly recommend Silvia & the changing room for your hair needs!

I love this salon! I’ve been a customer for over 15 years and have never been disappointed. I go to Kim for my cuts and she is fantastic. This place has a great staff, good location, and reasonable prices. I recommend them to everyone. You won’t be disappointed!

First time user of the salon in Aventura. Bridgett gave me a great haircut. I will go back!

One of the best cuts and blow-outs…and I’ve been around the block a few times, ha! Stef, I am your new fan! Thanks again.

I went here because of all the great reviews on Unilocal but my experience wasn’t what I expected. I got a cut and color. The color was actually great and that’s part of the reason I gave it two stars and not just one. The cut… I don’t even know where to start. I wanted it slightly shorter in the back and longer in the front with some texturizing of my hair in the back. Instead I have varying degrees of length of my hair in the back and an abrupt (not gradual) change when it comes to the front. It’s pretty much a mish-​mosh of lengths. She also used the thinning scissors to texturize which was quite odd to me.
I’ll have to grow out my hair for at least 3 months before I attempt to get it fixed. It looks extremely amateur if I leave it straight and have to spend extra time curling it every day just so that the different lengths aren’t so visible. I was hoping for something super easy to maintain without a lot of upkeep and instead I have a haircut that I have to spend 45+mins trying to just make the «choppiness» intentional. I’m very disappointed.
This review really isn’t to malign my stylist — she was very nice and did a good job on color but I’ll never go here again because of the cut. If you know which stylist to pick go ahead but if you’re not sure I probably wouldn’t go here.

Do NOT go to them for color! They DESTROYED my hair! Highlights were HORRIBLE, color was so bad I was embarrassed to go out in public…& they damaged my hair beyond repair… left me heartbroken & hair broken… all the broken hairs sticking straight up! No idea what they used (too strong, left on for too long, I don’t know… but there is no excuse to get this kind of result with highlights!) They fixed the color to some degree… just enough to go out in public again… but it’s still awful! I will be going elsewhere to get it repaired. 2 stars only bc I am happy w the cut. NOT a 4+ star salon!!!

I went to this hair salon for a trim. I have pretty long hair and I just wanted it to look healthy. It came out good, but I figured it wasn’t enough experience to write a review.
The following week I went back to dye my hair. I wanted a purple to pink ombré. I showed Stephanie a picture of what I wanted, and it came out perfect. I have received so many compliments on my hair. My dark brown hair now fades perfectly to a royal purple then bright raspberry.

I decided to go to this salon after years of doing my own hair… and so happy I did ! Daniela did my hair… She is awesome. .highly experienced !

This is a great place to get your hair cut or colored. The staff are very attentive, and I have never had a problem getting the appointment time I wanted, even when booking the day before!
My stylist is Britney, and she always takes the time to ask me to describe exactly what I want before she starts work. She gives me a great cut and color, and always asks if I want a tea or coffee during my visit.
The prices here are reasonable and I recommend it if you are looking for a new salon with great staff and a good vibe!

Britney did my hair. I been going to her for a month now she has been working on my brunnete hair to get to a light blonde color. This time we did highlights and base. I finally have a nicr blonde color and it will only get better. She works dedicated and knows what she is doing. Plus she is a platnium blonde herself so its better to trust a blonde when trying to go blonde!

Its good they work to make you happy.

Love this place! I could say something great about everyone there! They have a very large variety of stylists. Personally I love Emmy for color and cut/​blow. I also have had Jennifer, Wanda, and Lilly for blow drys. I have very thick super curly hair, they get to the root and straighten it really well! I’ve used Dulce for my nails. She’s really great! Everytime I visit them I leave very happy!

Came in asking for a simple trim on the back, came out with an overtly, unnecessary trim all around. By the time the stylist began cutting the sides, it was already too late. Nice stylist but inexperienced.
Lesson learned? If you don’t want to play Russian Roulette with your locks, find a great salon (Snip, Todd Jameson) and pay your money’s worth. I now will have to wait about two months to get my hair back to where it was before.

I came here for the first time because all the great reviews and I was tired of the crazy Miami beach prices, and now I love love this place!
Friendly staff and very clean salon. Jennifer did a great consultation, she cut my hair, hair color and highlights. She was able to understand what I needed without saying much! I’m definitely coming back and I recommend this place to everyone.

Amazing experience! I’m from out of town but a friend suggested The Changing Room
This salon is a gem! All the employees were so welcoming.
I went to get a haircut & style with no set boundaries and letting my stylist take the reins. I was more than please with the outcome. Perfect length, fabulous layers and a great style.
One of my favorite parts was my stylist didn’t push me to buy products I didn’t need but waited for me to ask on items I was interested in.
Thank you for new look! xo
