Matthew Michael’s Experience

This salon is located in a cute little plaza next to stardust coffee so very convenient for some coffee with your hair appointment ! As I walked in I was greater by a man named Beel. He offered me a beverage and made me feel very welcomed! I only waited maybe 5 mintures for my stylist Sara. Sara was VERY sweet and did an amazing job on my blow out! While I was in the middle of my appointment Beel came by and offered me a snack out of this tray full of different options. I thought that was really cool! What salon does that?! So great! The salon itself is beautiful and very clean. I got the vibe that all the stylist here are pretty amazing for any type of service! I will definitely be back !

New to town, and needed a cut — was booked with John and he was wonderful. John gave me a great cut, and was very, very nice. Tasha at the front desk was awesome, too — not sure where they found her, but she’s gold. The salon is small, which gives it an intimate setting and it’s nice. Great experience.

My entire experience at Matthew Michael’s was fantastic! The woman tending the front desk was bubbly and helpful, although I didn’t get her name (short asymmetrical hair). I got a cut, color gloss, and style with Karla and I couldn’t be happier. I’m one of those people that NEVER comes out of a salon 100% happy, therefore I bounce around a lot trying new places. Well I am SO glad I found Matthew Michael’s and Karla and I will definitely be back again and again. I ended up taking a bunch of products home, too, because the staff is so knowledgeable and helpful. They really listened, and worked with me to develop a «prescription» for my home hair care.
The salon atmosphere and experience is great. I thought the aromatherapy massage, Aveda tea, and hot towels were all a nice touch. The interior design of the salon is well done. All of that, to me, is just icing on the cake because the reason I’ll be back is for Karla! Can’t find a fresh, bouncy, cut with tons of movement just anywhere. Give her a try, you won’t regret it! Her client before my appointment said to me as she was leaving, «You’re in REALLY good hands with Karla, my entire family goes to her» so now I’m writing this post to pay it forward, and let YOU know that you would be in good hands with Karla too! I’ve been to salons from Miami to San Francisco, and this one is the real deal.

I’ve followed Karla for over 8 years and she ALWAYS knows just what to do. The entire staff at MME is amazing and are one step ahead of the game when it comes to the latest trends and styles. Don’t come just expecting a cut and shampoo, come for the EXPERIENCE.

Brandy has been doing my hair for several months, and she is fantastic!!! This salon is next level– professional, friendly, welcoming, and consistently excellent.

Natalie was wonderful! She gave me a great haircut, is supposedly wonderful at coloring, and happens to be a great person.
Speaking of great people, I just love the manager, Beel. What a nice guy and a great way to start a salon experience.
This was my first time and I will be making it my go-​to place!

The «lady» took the time out to listen to me, study my hair a bit and owned my hair for a short while making it exactly as I wanted. Knowledgable, humble yet as ascertive and professional staff. They made a lifelong guest.

Awesome experience as always. Enjoy walking into the salon and your friendly/​professional staff. Thank you Aramis Corchado for the beautiful cut/​style :)

This is one of the best salons I have ever been too. They treat you like a queen. The customer experience is superb and all the staff is friendly and professional. I have my hair colored by Todd and he is a magician with color and cuts! If your looking for a great salon try this Aveeda salon! I enjoy coming am always relaxed when I am done and look fabulous.

I always love coming to this salon. The staff is friendly and very attentive.
On my most recent visit I got an awesome cut. After a couple of days, I realized that I was unsatisfied with the cut I got. I emailed the salon and got a call from the manager who was able to get me in immediately for a fix. True customer service!
After getting my hair «fixed» I was more than pleased and look forward to a return visit to this salon.
I left off the 5^th star because I haven’t experienced all of their services and I did feel that their new space was a little small and lacking lighting wise.
Amazing experience. Will recommend.
Y’all go see Natalie!

Chelsea did an AMAZING job with my highlights/​lowlights! I am extremely particular and have a lot of hair… she did the most beautiful placement of just the right color and highlights with NO brassiness. My hair looks and feels shiny and healthy too! I HIGHLY recommend her! Everyone as the salon was really wonderful. Great experience!

I had a great first experience at Matthew Michael today. I was able to get in for a last minute appointment (granted it was a Monday afternoon) and am very happy with the results. I decided to cut several inches off my hair, which I was a bit nervous about. However, the stylist, Michelle, gave me one of the best «bobs» I’ve ever had! She listened to all of my concerns and it looks absolutely fabulous and healthy again. I will definitely be returning for my next trim.

Love coming here. I’m having then cut my hair really short and a perm. They are keeping me calm and confident.

When the husband says «take the day for yourself and I will watch the twins», what does Mommy of Twins do to feel complete? Make a hair appointment! I found this salon based on my requirement of usage of Aveda products. I only go to Aveda hair salons. My hair stylist today was Chelsea and she was fabulous! (Thank you Chelsea for making me whole again and reviving my hair!)
I came in and my hair was waaaay long. She pulled out her iPad and we went thru some photos. Chop, wash, and styled. My hair feels healthier and I cannot wait to come back for a color. (Please have some awesome monthly specials soon!) to
I really could go on forever about how great she was and how I’m so glad I found my salon in Orlando. This Mom will be back!
Bottom line — Book at this Salon. Ask for Chelsea!

I highly recommend Matthew Michael. I have come here for years and always love the results.

If you want the best salon experience of your life, this salon is a must!!! From the moment you walk in the door the staff is welcoming and accommodating. The salon is beautiful and inviting. I went in for a hair style change and boy was I impressed! I’ve never had so many compliments on my hair in my life! It gave me the courage to get it highlighted and I did a month later! It was even better! My stylist Willie is adorable, professional and extremely talented! Make this your place, you won’t be disappointed! Don’t forget to ask for Willie!

I had my hair re-​done yesterday by Todd who is the absolute best. He worked on my hair for 4 hours! Beel and Todd made me feel so gorgeous. Todd really knows his colors and curls, I am only going to him from now on! His assistant, Sarah, was so sweet and really helpful as well. I love this salon so much and I cannot wait to go back. Perfect, perfect, perfect.
I’ll post a picture so everyone can see the amazing work!

So where do I even begin?! Though I am only in town two, maybe three times per year, I do make the drive only to see John Paul, despite having to commute from Miami Beach. He is experienced, knows the ins and outs of hair, and on top of it all, so pleasant to be around. I’ve seen his clientele build to full time within weeks of being there, and now, he is definitely one of the top stylists there. The salon itself is quaint, modern, and has a home-​town feel. All staff members make it feel warm and welcoming, which is why I have zero problems making the drive to see the ONLY hair stylist in all of Florida that I found that is not overpriced, gives me exactly what I want (and need), and is genuinely concerned about my look. Great ambiance, even greater stylist. Thanks for being the best, John Paul.

I have been going into Matthew Michaels for some time now. They always have the best customer service, are eager to make you feel your best, and the stylists are the best in Orlando. Just had a wonderful visit with Brandy and she made my day :)
Not to mention the Aveda products are beyond compare.

I found out about this place through a Groupon I got for a hair treatment and blowout. Lynsey was my stylist, and she was awesome! I had a wedding reception to attend the next day and I wanted lots of volume and curls. She blew my hair out and pinned them up so I could sleep on them and just take them out in the morning so it’d look fresh for the reception. My hair came out amazing! She was very nice and did not rush anything, even though my appt ran past closing time. I would definitely come back next time I’m visiting Orlando. Highly recommended!

Went today with a Groupon, typically with a Groupon you get less than Awesome treatment but Lynsey was Awesome! Walked away with an amazing cut and my hair feeling the best it’s been in a while! Will def be back
