The Factory Salon

First let me start by saying JoAnne is amazing, I have been getting my hair cut by her for so long that this is the 3^rd salon (and only because the owner closed the last one she was at) that I have followed her to, from highlights to cut she always does a phenomenal job.
Now to the Salon, everyone here is extremely nice, the salon is immaculate, it is not overly loud or noisy like some salons, the vibe and feel of the place is great, and I have never seen an unhappy customer.
This salon is always up to date and has all the latest products, they have even been written up in Elle a couple of times as one of the best. I highly recommend this place even though I hope I don’t crowd myself out by doing so
If you want the best in service and style then you need to head over to The Factory!!!
Was asked, yes this is a salon for men and women
In fact my husband goes to JoAnne as well

Newly arrived Michelangelo is amazing at hair styling. He completely inspired me to try a new look and I am so happy that I did, he did an amazing job. I can’t wait to try him for color. He is a fantastic addition to a great Salon, definitely the BEST salon in Ft. Lauderdale.

I have been going to the Factory Salon since 2012 and Milan always does an amazing job on my cut and color. I’m very picky on my haircut and have had many bad haircuts at other salons that did not work for my hair when I styled it myself.
Milan knows exactly what works with my hair and what looks good on me and while we change it up every now and then, I have always been happy with the results. She is very precise, takes her time to get the perfect cut and color. Highly recommend The Factory Salon and in particular Milan

Patrick is a hair genius. I was referred to him by a couple of my friends who are his clients. I showed up ready to cut 9 inches of hair and add some natural highlights. The end result was amazing! I’ve never done colour before and now I have a beautiful balayage, finally got the Victoria’s Secret hair I’ve always wanted

Thank you fellow Unilocalers for recommending this salon. Chrissy was phenomenal and super sweet. I left there very happy. While I was sitting in the chair I saw other men and women and everyone looked great walking out. I definitely plan on going back.

Got a highlight and cut today with Luna and she did an absolutely amazing job. She is pure talent and really took the time to listen to what I wanted and she took into consideration my facial structure when consulting about the best cut and she also took into consideration my skin tone when helping to decide upon the most flattering color.
I highly recommend this salon for its clean atmosphere, impeccable service and amazing staff. If you are looking for a truly talented and creative stylist, go see Luna at The Factory… I have never felt more beautiful than I do now after having Ms. Luna work her magic on my hair!!!

Had an amazing haircut today by Jen! I went in with an out grown mess of a pixie and left with a cute, fun pixie that feels as good as it looks. The staff were all super friendly and the atmosphere was chill and relaxing. I’m so happy to have found my local spot. Thank you so much!

Had an incredible experience with Chrissie. I got an messed up haircut about a month ago and let it grow out a bit hoping to get it fixed. She smoothed it out to make it lay much better, took her time, and really paid attention to detail!

Hey guys — wanted to do an updated because Amy has moved! She’s now at 2 Blond Salon located at 901 Progresso Dr #106, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33 304. (954) 760‑4052 Congrats to 2 Blond Salon for gaining a incredibly amazing, talented addition to your team!

I went to The Factory Salon for the first time to have a correction done to my hair that a previous Salon had done. I wanted my Dark Hair lightened to chest nut brown with Carmel hair lights. But unfortunately I ended up with brassie Blonde at that !! I have dark eye browns, olive skin ! This looked terrible to say the least.
Then I met Luna (who I call Luna fantastic) she turned this horrible situation around. I now have hair that I wanted and what I asked for originally. I almost cried! When I saw my hair all corrected to chest nut brown with caramel high lights! Treatments were done to correct the damage to my hair ! I’m so happy that I choose The Factory Salon and met Luna (fantastic) and the owner. Love this Salon !!!

I had a great experience w Sarah! I was nervous because I’ve had the same stylist for 9 years but she moved. And I have thick curly/​wavy special needs hair. Sarah really listened to what I wanted w a haircut and was conservative with the procedure to keep the same style. She suggested the keratin treatment which was a splurge for me, but I have a feeling it’ll be worth it.

I found this business on Unilocal.I just moved to the Fort Lauderdale area and needed a place to get my hair cut. I called in the afternoon and took a chance that I still might be able to get in that same day. Much to my surprise, I was able to get an appointment within 2 hours of my call.
Upon entering the salon, I was immediately greeted by the most friendly and adorable Shih Tzu, named Alex.
Jen was my appointed stylist and I don’t think my experience could have been better. She listened to what I was looking for (I took in a picture of where I am trying to take my current style) and had a few helpful suggestions. She did not rush me and made sure she understood everything that I was looking for with my cut/​style before taking me to the washing station.
I am so happy with my cut. What a wonderful experience that was! In addition to being a wonderful hair stylist, Jen is also very friendly and personable! I am going to book an appointment next week to have her color my hair.

Thank you Sarah !!! I totally love my hair, I’m glad I found an amazing hairstylist !!!

Went here because it was listed in Elle as a top salon and I wanted someplace good as I needed a change. (
) I had a lovely woman named Chrissy do my hair. I told her I needed a change and she could do whatever she wanted. 7 inches and an hour an a half later I am so happy I went here. Its a hike from where I live but definitely worth it. Price was very moderate compared to the other salons listed in Elle were in Miami and their haircuts were almost double. The only thing is there really is no parking. For your first time there you drive around a little, then you have to either know where the store is and park before it, or if you pass it no worries, just past the light on the right is a pay to park and I think its $ 1.00 an hour.

Went to the Factory for the first time and I will definitely be returning. It’s a cute little salon with a chill hip vibe. I went to get some funky colors streaked in to my already processed hair. I tried another salon prior to the factory and it failed! So luckily I ran into someone who recommended The Factory Salon. Best choice ever! Luna is the stylist that did my color. She did an amazing job. She really took the time to make sure everything was the exact way I wanted. If you are looking for awesome color and a great stylist request Luna!!!

If you’re looking for a great haircut and styling, do yourself a favor and schedule an appointment with Patrick. He will give you great suggestions for whatever style you’re trying to go for and I always got 5-​Star haircuts when I visited.
The salon staff is very friendly and I never had an issue with wait time. I recommend parking in the metered spots across the street from the salon.
If I had not moved to NYC, I definitely would have continued to visit this salon and continue to have my hair styled by Patrick.

I had a serious hair emergency last week and Jen from the Factory saved the day! I’m pretty laid back when it comes to my hair (I normally go to a hair school, cause hey, everyone needs to learn and my mantra has always been, «Eh, it’ll grow out!») but my Wedding was on Saturday and looking in the mirror I realized I was going to be a hot mess for will probably be some of the most important pictures of my life. I made a last minute appointment based on Unilocal reviews alone and headed over to the salon.
Wow. The atmosphere in the salon was relaxing and inviting. Jen was extremely fast, efficient, and personable. To be honest I was nervous about having to explain just how I managed to let my hair get that bad (weird streak-​y highlites that were unevenly placed) but Jen took it all in stride and made me feel very comfortable. She understood exactly what I wanted for my wedding and even went above and beyond by giving me tips on how to better blow dry my hair. She’s an asset to a really wonderful salon. I’m definitely going back!
((Also for you dog lovers, the owner’s dog Alex is an absolutely adorable shih tzu and self appointed welcome committee at the salon. It was so cute walking in to see his handsome face!))

If you come here you MUST ask for Patrick he’s the Holy Grail of hairdressers. Please do yourself a favor and go to him!

I’m kind of surprised I hadn’t gone to the Factory Salon sooner since they are an award-​winning one, dubbed by Elle magazine for the past 3 consecutive years. I normally try new salons almost every single time I get my haircut since I’m so picky, but I think I will be sticking to this one!
Sarah was my hairstylist, and I gave her quick instructions about what I wanted. I also asked for modifications midway through, but she gave me her 2 cents on why it wasn’t a good idea and told me if I still wanted to thin my hair out even more after she was done then she would gladly revisit that section later. Well, it turns out she was right in the end, because I LOVE my haircut and it turned out to be exactly what I wanted! I’m so glad I listened to her, and I really like stylists that give you input during the cutting process. (For reference, I have really thick and hard to manage hair, so most people just go with what I ask for halfheartedly and never give me worthwhile advice even when I’m clearly looking for ways to make my hair easier to maintain on a regular basis)
She also did an awesome job blowing my hair out and styling it afterwards as well. You can tell who the really good stylists are because they don’t have to resort to using a flat iron to get the job done.
A few other things to note:
— I thought parking would be a pain, since the place is downtown but after business hours at least it really isn’t a big deal. You can park in the lot across or even at a metered park.
— Ambience is good. The place is clean and has a fun vibe to it. Plus, as soon as I entered the salon, a cute little puppy greeted me and kept me company while I waited! I would have waited longer just to play with him, but I didn’t have to wait long at all!
— Price is reasonable. Standard $ 65 includes a blow out, and I have really long hair.

It’s my 3^rd time at the salon ! My first two times I had a girl do my hair she did a fantastic job as well adding more blonde highlights and taking out my extensions .
This time I got some more of my natural root color added, for the ombré effect. Patrick was my stylist he did an awesome job ! Will definitely come back to him again!
