What the scorecards measure

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown. Rating is each salon’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, ranked against other Fort Lauderdale hair salons we looked at. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.8 from hundreds of people counts for more than a 5.0 from a handful. Recency shows how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

What drives hair salon prices in Fort Lauderdale

Salons set their own menus, and the same cut can price very differently by stylist. Color, balayage, extensions and smoothing treatments are usually quoted by the stylist after a consultation, because hair length, density and starting color change the work. Ask each salon for its written price list before you book.

All of these salons have Fort Lauderdale addresses, on SE 17th Street, N Federal Highway and E Las Olas Boulevard. Looking for a hair salon near me? Each card below carries a live phone number and a map link so you can check the closest one.

Questions to ask before you book a stylist

  • Which stylist do you recommend for my hair type and the look I’m after?
