MMA Salon

The salon describes itself as a private atelier rather than a high-volume salon, with a team of specialists rather than generalists. It says its clients are women who want hair that looks polished, effortless and refined.

Color is the core of the menu. Color correction starts with a consultation, and one is recommended before booking very dark artificial color, compromised hair or dramatic changes. Luxury French balayage starts at $395, and major transformations may take more than one appointment to protect the hair. The salon's LightIn method, which it says is exclusive to MMA Salon, is a French hair-painting technique built around each client's hair structure and the light of Miami.

Extensions are offered as I-tip, tape-in, weft and hand-tied sets, and the site also lists keratin bonds. Sets come in 12 inch Natural for $1,500, 18 inch Full for $2,500 and 24 inch Iconic for $3,500, each made from 100 grams of ethically sourced Remy human hair with color matching, installation, cut and blending included. A custom shade costs $500 extra. A $500 deposit orders the hair and is credited to the total. Clients can try extensions on before booking. The free consultation comes first, then the hair is sourced and matched, which takes one to two weeks, and installation takes two to four hours. Maintenance visits every six to eight weeks are recommended, and sets are typically worn six to nine months.

Treatments include Hair Botox, a conditioning and smoothing service that starts at $325 and does not contain injectable botulinum toxin. The salon describes it as a repair treatment for dry, porous or over-processed lengths and says it takes about two hours with no recovery time. Keratin smoothing starts at $395 and gives stronger frizz control while softening curl or wave, and it needs a consultation when hair is lightened or fragile.

Booking is by appointment only, and every request is reviewed before it is confirmed. Scheduling and follow-up run through WhatsApp. The online Color Atelier form asks about vision, current hair, desired feel and how the color should live, with optional reference photos, and the team reviews it before a private consultation. Submissions are not a final diagnosis, quote or confirmation. The phone and text number is 786 449 7058, the email is hello@mmasalon.com, and hours are listed as Tuesday to Saturday, 12 PM to 8 PM. Complimentary parking is in a dedicated area behind the salon, and street parking and public garages are nearby on Alton Road and 15th Street.

The salon designs hair around bone structure, natural texture and each client's personal identity rather than social media trends, and it puts emphasis on technique.
