Nicole is absolutely delightful.She seat’s me in her chair. Nicole is a very hands on gal:)🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟She then discusses exactly, any options, of how I would have her blowout, and various options, of styling my hair.It always makes me feel so pretty, as she uses a bit of a spay, after washing my hair, in which to give it volume. Thank you:)I have been with Nicole, for well over a couple of months; as she is extremely Professional, and well trained, in hair care Cosmetology.Nicole, is always accommodating to me, as are all of the Staff, and Stylists, at Aveda- Matthew Michael’s Salon.Its very easy to find on Edgewater Drive, easy to park, and easy to navigate exiting this Salon.I highly recommend this Salon, prices are more than reasonable, as is tipping your gal, or guy, for any treatments you receive.Always, a Pleasant Experience here.πŸŒŸπŸ§‘πŸŒŸβœ‚οΈ

Best experience Ive had in a long time. Ive been to many different salons only to be disappointed by my cut and or service. This one by far is the best and Natalie is so professional knowledgeable and friendly. She knows what shes doing very detailed and precise cut. I love the special touch of the massage and sage spray before they begin and lets not forget the warmed towels around your neck for you hair wash. Love it πŸ˜€

Truly top talent β€” Joanna is indeed a short hair specialist, plus much more! She took the time to look at my face shape, hair type, and see what I wanted, what I liked, didn’t like from another salon’s haircut, (that wasn’t working for me, and my husband didn’t like) and best choices to achieve the look I wanted. She found a picture online and texted it to me and herself as a record of what we are working toward. She also is warm and kind, and wise. I was so pleased to meet her and enjoyed the expertise and excellent service. It was my first visit, and I am so glad I went. The scheduler was also very attentive and helpful with my crazy schedule that day, and went above and beyond to accommodate me. Can’t recommend Matthew Michael Experience enough!

I cant recommend this Aveda location enough. My stylist Nicole was beautiful and professional and gave me an excellent, thoughtful haircut. All of the staff was really sweet and helpful. Everything felt clean and they really provide a full service experience with drinks, shampoo and scalp massage. I have definitely found my local haircut spot and look forward to returning.

Review β„–13

They completely messed up my hair and were so rude to me the entire time. I asked to pay partial payment because I didn’t feel comfortable spending $200 on something I hated. Then they called the cops and tried pressing charges. They got their money and lost a slice of their reputation. Below is what I asked for and what I got. The owner Michael kept bashing my character and saying how awful I am for wanting a hand out. The irony is, I offered to pay partial payment but felt full price was unfair. I don’t want free, horrible services. I wanted to pay for quality service. Unfortunately everyone good left the salon during the pandemic and now they are left with inexperienced and rude staff.

Shelley is fantastic! During our consultation she took time to talk through exactly what I wanted, then advised me on what would be healthiest for my hair and still give me the look I was going for.

The stylist Shelley really helped me feel comfortable she’s so warm and friendly ...I decided to go for a cut and style that first day and felt comfortable enough to go back a week later for highlights - she helped me come up with a cut and highlight that would help ease me into having hair I’d enjoy .Shelley suggested some hair products that have kept my hair soft and shiny. It’s clean in the store and lots of precautions are taken seriously. Your temp is taken upon checking in.I felt pampered and so relaxed . I will go back again in a few months and go a bit lighter and get a trim.I’m so grateful to not just always have my hair in a bun/ponytail and have a bit of style again!β€” today I went back and got my highlight and long layers it looks amazing and I feel very confident and happy with the way it looks . I plan on continuing to come here for my hair and for the relaxing experience and Shelley is enjoyable to get to hang out with πŸ’•

Joanna is amazing with highlights, color and styling. She corrected my color last year when I spent a few months trying to do it myself. Nothing short of a miracle!

I had the incredible pleasure and good fortune to have Shelley Simonazzi, stylist and genius at Matthew Michael’s Aveda color and cut my hair and I cannot say enough amazing things about my experience. The salon itself is beautiful and as soon as I walked in I felt so welcomed by the staff. Everyone there was so kind. I have been going to Aveda salons for over 15 years and this was one of my best experiences. Shelley has a kindness and energy that immediately made me feel comfortable. I felt she Truly listened and work with me to find just the perfect cut and color. It was such a lovely time and I never felt rushed. My hair turned out gorgeous! I have definitely found my forever stylist Shelley! Thank you!

Joanna Curry is the absolute best! I have been coming to her at Matthew Michael’s Aveda Salon for over a year now, and she is consistent every time! I get highlights and a cut and every time it is exactly how I like it.

Review β„–33

At Matthew Michaels hair salon, I found the best stylist I have ever have. Michael calls his clients guests. They present a warm and welcoming place. Their sanitation procedures are over the top. Michael does require face masks, but he will dab a fragrance on your mask. How good lavender and peppermint smell. And the salon is cavernous, so I am more than 20 feet away from any guest. If you want the best hair, you need to visit Michaels salon. It has a soulful and loving atmosphere!

Joanna has been my hair stylist for years. I started with her when she was In the same building under another name. She moved for a bit to another place nearby and came back when it changed hands again. She is professional, she listens to what you want done and how you want your hair cut. She enjoys getting to know her clients.

Shelley was so amazing, I was so nervous going into my appointment, I have never had anything done to my hair and have been cutting it on my own for the past 8 years. She made me feel so excited and I put my full trust into her and the results are absolutely amazing! I wasn’t 100% sure how I wanted it to turn out until I saw it and knew that’s what I wanted. She is so kind, funny and amazing at what she does. Thank you Shelley!

Heather is simply BRILLIANT! Shes an exceptionally gifted stylist who deserves 100 ⭐. The artistry that she exemplifies is so above & beyond any of my prior salon visits in other cities like West Hollywood and NYC, just to name a few. In addition to that, Heather is an honest, wonderfully engaging, professional, friendly, big-hearted, personable - with a keen eye for detail and style and a beautiful soul since Ive known her these last few years.

Review β„–45

Great service and staff. Had a lovely experience, Kaileigh up front was very accomodating. As with every girl making a change to her hair, I was hesitant on the change but direly needed it. John made sure we had the same vision and eased with taking a couple inches off before the rest. My hair also feels so much healthier with the hydrating treatment. I loved my experience and my hair. Also well priced for the quality of service 😊

My hair is growing in from many years of coloring. Not sure yet what I will do with that, but I needed a great haircut. It was a little past my shoulders, and much of it was frazzled. I saw Joanna at the Edgewater location in college park. She was very helpful and gave me plenty of time to discuss what I wanted. Joanna is a professional, and she made me look and feel like a new person. My hair is fabulous, and has body I hadnt seen in a long time. I am thrilled with it, and everyone is giving compliments. The salon is clean and gorgeous. It has a warm and welcoming ambiance. The staff is awesome. Joanna showed me around first, and they offer facials and other great services. I based my decision to try them on the other positive reviews.Matthew Michaels is my new favorite hair salon! Thank you Joanna!

I highly recommend Joanna. She gives my hair life! If you have curly hair, she knows how to cut it perfectly. I have been to several diva curl stylists, and I have finally found someone who cuts my hair how I like it. It even looks cute when I straighten it. She also gave me cute highlights! Next time Ill try the keratin treatment.

Review β„–55

My first time into the salon was just as salons were opening up after being shut down for Covid-19. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the salon and professionalism of the entire staff. I came to the salon looking for a stylist that knew how to work with my thick curly hair. Johnathan was perfect. He took the time to listen to my concerns and problems with my hair. He cut, colored and styled my hair just the way I like it. He recommended products that would control the fizzy in the Florida humidity. I am so happy with his work that I am recommending him to all my family and friends.

Every time I see Shelley, she is attentive, detail oriented, and SO friendly. She listens to exactly what I want my hair to look and feel like, and puts her own twist on things when I ask her to. I’m never bored or unsatisfied with my results. She’s a joy to talk to, and gives an amazingly relaxing head and shoulders massage that really sets the tone for the ultimate experience. She is the first hair stylist I have seen in my 25 years where I walk away LOVING my hair and feeling like it’s exactly what I came in for. Her technique is unmatched, her style is flawless, and her company is the icing on the cake. Thanks Shelley!!

I am so impressed with the service I received today. I found this salon and Shelley Simonazzi by the excellent reviews online, and I was not disappointed at all. I had some color issues with my hair (it was a huge mess from my last colorist), and Shelley was able to correct it. She is knowledgeable, skilled, professional, and really caring. I was not expecting the great results I got given the mess I came in with. I have another appointment already scheduled for next week, and will continue to come back. I highly recommend this salon and Shelley. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

This salon is so professional and relaxing. I’d probably just come for a shampoo if I could because it’s just pure heaven. Nicole cuts my hair and she does a great job, not often do you vibe so well with a stylist that they not only cut your hair well, but cut it so it grows exactly as you want it to. She shares my hair vision, even though I’m very picky with my haircuts. Everyone is so nice and always talks to me when I come in as well. Love this place!

I had a great first experience at Matthew Michael’s with Johnathan! Got my normal cut and even get a little color for the first time in years. Johnathan was honest about time and cost, cut my hair just as I asked. He took his time with my color and got it just right (a small grey streak in the front). My temp was checked and masks were worn properly, I would definitely suggest you look into visiting this salon for a great experience and leaving feeling like a Queen!

I was between stylists and about to throw in the towel. My color was ok and my haircuts were fine, but I just did not love the look or feel after a service. I met Shelley and she changed all of that.

Review β„–82

I am thrilled with my experience at this salon. I was in town visiting family and spontaneously decided it was time to get my hair cut after a year of growing it out. I called and got an appointment for just a few minutes later on the same day. It was easy to park and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. I could tell that many precautions were being taken to protect the health of the staff and the clients. The waiting area, salon, and restroom were all clean and everyone worse masks.Then I met Joanna. She did a thorough consultation about how I usually cut and style my hair and gave me excellent advice. Even though I didn’t come prepared with a picture or even a clear idea other than β€œshort”, Joanna was patient, honest, and extremely knowledgeable. She gave me several suggestions to suit my low maintenance and active lifestyle and we settled on an exciting new style for me. Joanna was very friendly and we chatted while she worked on my hair. She also gave me many pointers about how to keep up the style and recreate it at home.I also had my eyebrows waxed. Usually I am very red and puffy for several hours after, but Joanna must be an expert because it was much more comfortable than usual and I didn’t have any of my usual post-wax pain. Also, I have a scar on one eyebrow that I have always thought made it hard to do my eyebrows nicely, but Joanna showed me how to work with what I’ve got and maintain the look at home. Joanna was so incredibly helpful and generous- she even took my picture and let me charge my phone for a few minutes before I left!Checkout was quick and I loved that I could leave a tip with my card (yay contactless!). Because of how luxurious and skillful the haircut was, I expected it to be more expensive than usual (but still totally worth it!) but I was pleasantly surprised to find it was comparable to what I typically pay at my salon at home.I’m over the moon about my new haircut! I didn’t know exactly what I wanted but this is definitely it! I don’t live in the area but I would highly recommend the salon to anyone, and if ever I need to get my hair cut while traveling in the future, I will look for Aveida. Thank you, Joanna!

I have been going to the Winter Park location for the past 3 years and was so excited when they opened another excellent salon in College Park! The stylists are professional and talented, I learn new tips for styling my hair each time I go, and I always walk out feeling great about my hair. The aromatherapy scalp and shoulder massage included with haircut and pleasant, natural smell of the Aveda products create a relaxing spa experience. If about $45 for a haircut is in your budget, I would definitely recommend Matthew Michaels!

First of all if I have been a client of Michael’s salons since 2002. I moved to California once for 18 months and flew back to Orlando to have my hair cut. Matthew Michael Salons are of the highest caliber. Michael is is an owner operator who ensures the guest experience is of the highest quality, he builds a team of the best stylists in the business. Whatever services you need you can be assured you will leave there feeling sexy and sassy!!

Got a great cut from Johnathan today! Showed him a picture of how I wanted my cut to look and it turned out awesome (a few inches taken off with some layering). Everyone was super friendly and they had plenty of COVID procedures in place (temp checks, masks, sanitizer, distancing). Have been going to this salon for a couple years now and am never disappointed.

I’ve been going to Matthew Michael’s Aveda salon in Winter Park for three years now. And fell in love with Willie’s work ever since. He is a true professional and makes my hair look fabulous every single time I visit!I recently visited their new location in College Park and loved it. Amazing space: a lot of natural light, very spacious and modern. Private parking is a huge plus. All the staff is very helpful and nice as usual.I highly recommend Willie! He is amazing!!

If you are looking to add highlights, I recommend Shelley. She has been able to decipher what i want and what looks good. The highlights in my hair have never been better. Thank you

I went to Shelley for a highlight and a trim today. I always have such a hard time describing what I want, but she asked all the right questions and did my highlights EXACTLY as I had imagined them! She is kind, professional, and such a joy to be around. I highly recommend her for your next appointment :)

I have shorter hair and I was trying to let it grow out which wasn’t working and she did a pristine job on my bob it’s absolutely perfect and I’m very picky about my hair!!! Also the salon was incredibly incredibly clean and I felt very safe With the steps they’re taking to keep everyone safe I highly recommend Both Shelley and the entire Matthew Michael’s salon it’s a wonderful experience!

Shelley Simonazzi did a fantastic job with my COVID neglected hair! She did fantastic highlights that made me forget that I hadn’t had a color in 6 months. And to top it off she is super nice and gave great suggestions. Definitely someone to see!

My experience with Shelley Simonazzi at Matthew Michael’s was amazing! It was my first time getting my hair done by her but it felt like I had known her for a long time. She was very personable, professional, and made me feel comfortable despite all the changes going on due to COVID-19. She was also very knowledgeable of various products that would improve my hair and I definitely valued her recommendations! I struggle with build-up and she was able to make my hair feel SO soft and light weight! Definitely would recommend her as a stylist and will for sure book with her again! Thank you so much!! πŸ€—

I have been a loyal Mathew Michael’s customer for over 5 years now. There is something to be said about the professionalism and family feel that they have. Everyone is always so friendly and welcoming. Willie is amazing at his craft. From his colors to blowouts, he always has me walking out feeling beautiful! If you want the perfect eyebrows, you have to see Lee...flawless every time! I had an appointment at the new College Park location today and loved it!

This place is amazing if youre a guy looking for a haircut or anyone looking to get their hair done. They have aroma scents that you smell and they give a neck massage and when you go to back room to get hair shampood they put hot wet towel over your face and give you a head massage. It is pricey for a haircut but you will not get that stuff anywhere else and if you found a place probably would be even more. I always go to Nicole who is an amazing stylist and very friendly person. Everyone there seems really friendly and I highly recommend this place. I wont go anywhere else. Ps. Since the pandemic they dont do the aroma scents or neck massage so hopefully virus goes away soon and they can resume them.
