Salon Allure

I had recently moved to Milton, Fl. & desperately need my hair cut & colored. I googled Salon Allure & read the reviews on a young lady named Lindsey! She is amazing she turned me from a frumpy hair doo to a beautiful lady! Great job Lindsey! I also like the other staff members very friendly & informative. Tks again!

I was headed home for the holidays and I stopped by a friends place while passing through Gulf Breeze. I mentioned that I needed a haircut for Christmas and he immediately recommended Salon Allure. I walked in without an appointment and the owner (Heidi?) squeezed me in. She was friendly, the atmosphere was nice and most importantly I was very happy with my haircut. What more can you ask for?

Sadly when you move or your hair person moves, it’s really tough to find a new beautician. I just recently moved to Gulf Breeze so I was in this sticky situation. Solely based off the good reviews of this place, I hesitantly made an appointment (only because I have had some awful, and I mean awful hair experiences). I was beyond pleased with Misty. My first time in the salon I just got a haircut, and she made my fine hair look so full! I came in for the second time and got color and a trim. I was a little bit scared about the color, but it came out fabulous. I couldn’t be more pleased. I would definitely recommend this place!

Lindsey is amazing! I’m always very peculiar about my layers but she did an awesome job without over cutting! She also put blonde highlights in my hair, making it look natural and ready for the summer!!!

I got the worst hair cut that I have ever gotten in my life, courtesy of Misty. She did what SHE wanted, not what I communicated to her. I wanted one length (except for my long bangs) and told her I wanted to get away from layers. I was willing to sacrifice inches (over 3 – which is a lot) to let her even my ends out. Well, she took it upon herself to give me «face-​framing» layers around my chin. Yikes! Now I have worse layers than I started with! And, ironically, my overgrown swoop bangs, which I asked her to take a good bit off of as they are my problem area to get them to go back and not hang down in my face, seemed to escaped unscathed. Yes, they STILL hang down in my face as before. Worst of all, the back of my hair was totally uneven with jagged ends, looking like a kindergartner had cut it – no, sorry, a 5-​year-​old could probably cut straighter! I had to have my husband (brave soul!) cut some of the longer sticking-​out pieces off to try to «make me at least presentable,» in his words. Needless to say, I will never go back to the salon nor would I recommend it. Misty said she has 25 years experience, but I sure do wonder how she has been able to stick around in the industry for that long! Beware: she is armed and dangerous! Run!

Had a massage today the best ever. Atmosphere is relaxing and everyone is so friendly. I would recommend this salon to anyone.

As of late, bad hair days have outnumbered the good. Blame the sun, wind, rain, the ocean with its damaging salty ways. Whatever the cause… I felt as though my hair would never see the light again.
Long story short, I am not a color virgin… I have cheated on my natural mousey lifeless color many a time and many a time, I have been that girl at the salon convincing myself that ‘yes.i do like this color’ only to get home and cry a little inside knowing that what I thought I’d communicated as, ‘chocolate’ or ‘espresso’ was apparently not what my stylist interpreted. Too black, too red, to brassy, quick fade, you name it, I’ve lived it.
So.when I saw a groupon for a salon I’d never been to, I thought… what the hell, why not. It was right before a move, what did I have to lose.
Well…little did I know… I’d be walking away from, Misty, a stylist… the stylist… who finally got my color right and we’re not only talking happy at the salon when my locks are flowy and glossy and magazine cover good… we’re talking, i’m still reeling from excitement two months later and seriously considering flying down to see her.
Now Misty is not a mind reader… I did tell her to the best of my ability what my natural color is and what i desired it to be. Same family… just richer with the caveat that I have natural red highlights which curse me with brass upon fading. But what did she do? She listened. Plain and simple and did to the best of her knowledge and ability what no other stylist has done. She gave me the color I’ve been striving for my entire coloring life.
If I could have packed her in my bag and brought her with me… I would have. I even called her a month later to thank her and ask if she’d relocate.
For now, Gulf Breeze has her and this saddens me, but if you’re close by… she’s the only one to see.
My only warning… don’t google directions. It sends you everywhere but Salon Allure. Call them instead.
