Gromova Hair

Founded by Lyudmila Gromova, the studio has operated since 2015 and works from inside the GL Beauty studio in Hallandale Beach, where there is free parking in the building lot. The business states it has served more than 15,000 clients and describes itself as one of Miami's most trusted extension studios. It also reports more than 300 five-star reviews averaging 4.97 across Google, Yelp and direct client feedback.

Visits are by appointment only, Monday to Saturday, with Sundays closed. Every client can book a free in-person consultation before committing. A typical install uses roughly 150 to 200 capsules of 0.3 to 0.5g each, and the exact count is settled at that consultation. Sessions run by length: complex removal and tangles take 60 minutes, removal 90 minutes, re-capsulation 120 minutes, and new extensions or hair correction 180 minutes each. Urgent bookings are handled over WhatsApp or Instagram DM, and enquiries are usually answered within one business day.

The studio's signature is Hot&Ice, a hidden-capsule method that joins extensions with keratin and a hot tool, without glue, and pairs the hot capsule with cold-extension twisting. The attachment sits inside the client's own hair, so it is smaller than open techniques, and the method generally needs fewer capsules without shrinking strands or filling the whole head. The business states that Hot&Ice extensions can be reused up to three times and last about two years. The technique is patented and was invented by Lyudmila Gromova.

For larger jobs, the studio offers a 4-hands service in which two masters work in parallel on the same appointment. Hair sets are made from 100% donor natural human hair, sourced from Slavic donors, and sold in 100g sets of 200 capsules in five lengths from 16 to 35 inches. Sets are tangle-free, cuticle aligned and colour-matched, and start at $450 for 16 to 19 inches, rising to $700 for 30 to 35 inches. Final pricing depends on length, density and colour match and is confirmed when ordering. Orders ship from Miami within 48 hours, with worldwide delivery available; US shipping is free on orders over $500, and unopened sets can be returned within 30 days.

Training is a 5-day in-person hair extension certification course in Miami, taught by Lyudmila Gromova and limited to small groups, with applicants approved by consultation. Tuition is $2,000, paid as a $1,000 deposit and $1,000 on the first day. The course includes a live model on day five and access to a graduates' chat, and graduates receive an international certificate. The business states that graduates earn from $3,000 per client.
