For those who don't want the latest rage, and get enough spa atmosphere at the spa, the art of hair design is taken to a new level by JB Veltman.
One of Coconut Grove's best kept secrets, JB offers a serene and private hair design studio. JB has traveled the world as a Glemby designated "high fashion" stylist and instructor for couture runway shows and editorial layouts in publications such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and Elle. JB is equally accomplished at cutting and color. While some colorists specialize in one color, JB has an artist's sensibility and an engineer's precision making any color he does seem natural and attractive. The philosophy of a tranquil, professional studio that offers extraordinary privacy and personalized attention has made the Patrick Garelle Salon the preferred salon of Miami's elite. JB is a Brazilian Keratin Treatment educator.

Best Stylist in Miami for Pretty, Sexy, Healthy Hair Reviewed by SK305 on

I've spent the past year trying to go blonde. One visit to JB and, finally, I'm there. The other hair salons all had top-notch reputations, yet, lightening long dark hair had proved to be a challenge. Not for JB. He's an artist and a craftsman. Hair color is science and art, and JB is a master stylist in both. His years of experience enables him to proceed with confidence. He mixed formulas and the results exceeded my expectations.
If you're tired of hearing how wonderful your hair looks from your stylist and his/her co-workers when you KNOW it's not even close to what you want... visit JB. He believes in pretty, sexy, healthy hair that works for you.

I have now been a client of JB's for over 2 years so this is not a "first impression" but a true review from a regular customer. Having moved from LA I have had my share of "hair experiences"--good and bad, big salons and intimate boutiques. Arriving in Miami I expected to be searching for many months before finding someone I could trust with my hair (coloring and cut). I considered other local stylists recommended by friends here in Miami but found JB via Citysearch (the internet???--yes!) and have never left.
For my first experience at this "private hair design studio" I expected the visit to be a bit tense and edgy as you might expect from such a description. Far from it! The studio is relaxed and intimate and very welcoming. The tone is set by JB and his very capable assistant Kara who keep the action flowing without melodrama.
My return visits to the studio have convinced me that JB and Kara could handle any "hair emergency" for any client and keep the atmosphere low-key.
My cuts and coloring have been great! Nothing complex in coloring but done so that I don't have to worry about an awkward "painted" hairline or "bleeding color" for the next 2 days when I work out or just get out and about in the Miami humidity. (Trust me--I have had this experience before in LA!)
For over 2 years JB and Kara have been a regular entry in my calendar. Now when I have Miami friends asking me where I get my hair done--! I tell them "JB Veltman", of course!
Pros: attentive to client, punctual service, relaxed atmosphere
Cons: parking can be tough if you don't want to walk
