The famous Daniel McFadden created eyebrows for me out of literally nothing. I think I was in my early teens when I tweezed from the roots and my eyebrows never grew again. Here I am, on the verge of my last birthday of my sixties, and I was turned on to the idea of microblading by a friend who was turned on by someone she knew. After years of penciling on my brows, I went for the change. I had a consultation with Daniel during which he explained how microblading is done; he showed me before and after pictures as well as videos of the procedure and his appearances on national television shows like Access Hollywood. There was comprehensive medical paperwork to fill out, which I appreciated; I signed and made my appointment. The first appointment was to discuss shape, width, color, etc. (which was also discussed at the consult). It's the first pass so to speak. I was apprehensive about what I'd look like afterward; would I be happy with what was created, would I be swollen, red, in any sort of discomfort. There was none of that; I could have gone to a black tie event right out of the salon! The healing process was smooth, no issues arose. No getting the procedure area wet for 48 hours, blot the area every few hours to remove excess ink that the body tries to expel and use Aquaphor liberally several times a day. The color gets dark in the first couple of days and then lightens again, so don't worry about the color not looking like what you expected. In about two weeks the brow area is healed. There was some sloughing off of ink during the healing process and that is where the second touch-up appointment comes in. The touch-up appointment fills in blank areas that may have occurred during the healing process; shape is modified if desired, as is color. I lost a good amount of ink during the healing process as my skin is a bit tough and ink doesn't stay on my face (my body, no ink problems). So, my touch-up was a tad more intense as Daniel had to go deeper to deposit the ink than the first pass. My shape was modified and that was that. I couldn't be happier with the final look and once the touch-up healing period is over, I will never have to lift brow powder again! Oh, maybe to alleviate some shine; it is, after all a flat tattoo. Having mentioned that it's flat, brings me to this final note: my eyebrows look like they are made of real hair! If anyone actually gets up close and studies the brows, they'll be revealed for what they are, but at a normal distance, they look real and fabulous! It's pricey when someone well-vetted with a stellar reputation does it, thereby no worries about product safety, sanitary conditions, etc. No sketch with Daniel McFadden! I highly recommend Daniel and his magic with creating and refining eyebrows. You will look like a different person. I hope this review helps anyone considering microblading and who may be very nervous about it. It'll be okay and you'll...
Read moreMy mother and I had our hair cut and styled before an upcoming trip. It was our first visit to Olivier Salon & Spa. We were extremely nervous about getting our hair cut by a new stylist, but the entire crew pampered us which made for a relaxing time. Thank you team Olivier!
The true test of a great haircut is how it looks and handles during months of traveling -- from flying to navigating sweltering cities to hiking mountains to swimming in chlorinated pools. Whether styling or letting it dry naturally, our hair always looked great. My mother said it's the best haircut she's had in years.
My hair is long, thick and wavy -- not easy to style or to find someone who knows how to cut it to its best advantage. Adolfo spent a long time helping me understand my hair better and shared many tips. Of course it looked beautiful after he cut and styled it, but the best part now is that it looks beautiful even when I style it myself. In the hands of a master stylist, my hair has transcended!
From both of us, thank you so...
Read moreAfter extensively searching South Florida for a hair stylist I found Tony Sgra at Olivier Salon & Spa! What a lovely salon and Tony is exceptionally talented. He takes a great deal of pride and care with his clients. He is an artist when it comes to color and I love the haircut he gave me! A couple of weeks ago I had to have a corporate headshot photo shoot and I didn't have time to make an appointment with Tony so I just went to a salon convenient to my place of work. The stylist that did my blow out was very nice and talented but finally asked me where I had my color done. I told her and she said that whatever I do, I should not change stylists for my color. She said she would love to have me as a client but that this kind of color could not be duplicated in her salon. What a huge compliment to Tony! And this was after 8 weeks from my last hair color! WOW! How often can anyone say that?!? If you are looking for a change please consider Tony Sgra and Oliver Salon...you will not be...
