I am writing this review because I do not want another person to be misled by the 5 star reviews. I have been here before and saw Colleen who gave me a great cut. I was happy with the cut so this is why I returned. However, Colleen wasn't available so I scheduled with Jill. I have thick, curly, medium length hair and it took her only 25 minutes to shampoo, cut and style (if that's what you want to call it) my hair and it shows. I asked for long layers (with bangs) because I like to have the option to wear my hair straight or curly. However, when I got home I noticed instead of using scissors to layer my hair she did it the lazy way and used a blade. Anyone with curly hair knows too much razor cutting causes frizz and can damage hair. She basically butchered my hair. The only thing I can do now is to let it grow. Also, when I got home my hair didn't smell good and felt greasy. I don't know what product was used but I had to wash and restyle my hair. I felt rushed and the way my hair was cut and styled shows Jill does not care about her craftsmanship or her customers. It was an all around horrible experience and I will never go back. I would like to add that the owner, Jill, did respond and is basically saying that I am lying and do not want to resolve the problem. This is an example of how she treats her customers and how unprofessional she is as a business owner. No empathy at all! Never again, you have been warned.

Botticelli Hair Design. Look no further. I stuck with Jill even when I moved to DC, San Diego and Tucson-over 12 years away. I have to admit being back in the neighborhood makes it a lot easier, even during Covid (especially since they take safety incredibly seriously). You walk in and feel like family. Plus, amazing service, products, professionalisms and prices. I will never stray.

I have so many great things to say about this salon... I took my 3 y/o daughter for a mommy-daughter salon date. I didn't know what to expect because when I took her to a different salon, she screamed and resisted the whole time. Natural Trendsetters offers a completely different experience from the moment we opened the door. Such a beautiful and inviting atmosphere immediately put my toddler at ease. She went from my care to Kadeisha's effortlessly, and clearly enjoyed every second. The two conversed and enjoyed each other's company for the entire 2 hour service. I still cannot believe it. I had the pleasure of getting a BIG chop by Nikki... for the first time in my life my haircut came out exactly as I envisioned it. Even while my directions were somewhat contradicting, Nikki listened and knew exactly what I meant. I absolutely love the cut and style she did for me! For years I've searched for a truly natural hair care salon.. many claim to be, while being anything but.. Natural Trendsetters is the real deal.. they truly celebrate and know how to style every kind of textured hair (my daughter and I have very different curls, but both left the salon looking extra fly).

I'm Maggie P and this is my revised review on Natural Trendsetters located in Tamarac, FL from a previous review. I'm understanding that each visit will be the same at any establishment. This place is not just another salon; it's one of a kind community place for natural hair. The experience will have you coming back. The beauty parlor is sanitary and is disinfected after each client. Also, it's beautifully kept with artwork, crafty merchandise, and more. Natural trendsetters have a greater meaning and it's about the community, hair care, their clients, and leaving the salon as queens or kings. Simone, Trudy, and the stylists provide a good fun atmosphere of vibes such as sharing uplifting energies and cultural understanding as you're getting your hair care. It's amazing and they sell products to maintain our hair until your next appointment visit. Thanks, Natural Trendsetters for cultivating us the people with their passion for hair care, loc styling, coloring, and more. Loyal customer since 2016 Maggie P.

This is the the only place in town where you go from being a client to feeling like family! Simone, Trudy and the rest of the staff at NTS learn your hair story and make sure to specialize your hair regiment based on YOUR needs. They also host events throughout the year to educate the community at large on self love and hair care. There's no where else I would go, and no one else I'd ever let touch my hair.

I had just moved to the area and Debbie saved my hair! He gave me the exact color I wanted and I can’t wait to go back again.

I have been searching for someone who can cut short hair and not end up looking like an old lady! MY hair is somewhat fine, curly and I have more than my share of cowlicks! Found Tracy at Botticelli and she was up for the challenge! Left feeling sassy! Love love love my cut!

One of the worst places ever. Apparently only their friends and regular customers get their hair done right. There's other places that cost less and do better. It's sad that it's an African American business but they don't treat all of us right. Straight ghetto.

I have been getting styled by Natural Trendsetters for the last 3 years and could not be anymore pleased with my experience. I make the drive from Miami to Tamarac because of the consistency and quality of service. I enjoy the relaxed vibe of the space and how friendly and accommodating the staff is each time. The salon owners, Simone and Trudy, have been specializing in natural hair care for 20 years and bring that experience, education and creativity to clients. I love that they now have their Royal Coils hair care line which is high quality and well priced. The pomade, mousse and herbal spray work wonders on my hair and help to retain moisture for 4-5 days!

Good Day: I write this review for others who hopefully will find this helpful before they get their dreads in the wrong style as I did. I don't want this to happen to ANYONE else EVER. I wanted to give a 2 star at least, because the manager of the store was so kind, washing my hair so well and the energy of the place was nice. But I'll start by addressing that I am a White female with Dreadlocks (only mention color in this review bc hair texture is so important with Locks). I Live on South Beach, had to rent a car and drive an hour to get my dreads done, seeing how I couldn't find anyone closer who knew how to do the CROCHET METHOD ON WHITE HAIR. I did this because I was refered to her by a male friend Af Am. & called ahead to speak the young woman to ask plenty time if she knew how to do the 'Crochet Method on White Girl Hair Dreadlocks'?? She repeatedly said yes yes yes she did and has done before several time (a lie). Now mind you I needed maintenance for one month of growth but as my Dreads were about 5-6 months in, I really did need help separating and so on. ANYWHO, She was pleasant and we got along just fine the entire time. However, she did the INTERLOCKING Method. Which is ONLY DONE on African American Hair or if you are going for that African American style look as a diff Race person. I told her so many time, I have been looking for someone who does the CROCHET METHOD for so long and cant find anyone. I hadn't at that time learned how to Crochet Maintenance my own Dreads yet, as I do now, so I didn't really know the technique myself good enough to catch her doing it wrong the entire time. SO, she had me placed alongside the the mirror, like parallel and to far in front of mirror to even see my hair or what she was doing. Therefore, I couldn't see, not one minute, what she was doing to my hair to stop her. She worked for at least 2 hours. All good vibes. In the last 5 minutes of the hair work, I asked to see how she was doing the last dread because she kept mentioning INTERLOCKING for the next client. She was looping and looping my hair and INTERLOCKING IT!! I was so horrified I didn't want her to get in trouble and it was already done. She wanted to put it half up for me or 'style' it & I let her (she did in 3 min, which I immediately shook out as I got in my car, not wanting to hurt her feelings). I just wanted to cry I was so embarrassed. This Dread Journey for me is LIFESTYLE not a STYLE so I now know not to go to a 'Stying Salon' because me nah style my hair-its Natural. (Just my personal choice). As in natural, crochet method only dreads. The first year requires maintenance in this crochet method often. She had shortened my locks at least HALF WAY THEIR LENGTH WHEN I WENT IN. And I had to go home and wash 5 times with shampoo to get it even looking able to leave the house and all the product she put in it OUT. I asked her a few days later via text if she did the CROCHET METHOD and any pointers to fix it because it was done wrong. Explaining to her nicely & privatley how horrified I was. I was such in a state I was considering chopping them off and starting over. Now there is a 3 inch chunk of interlocked bumpy hair in the top/middle of all my dreads that will always be there. Completely not matching the rest of all my dreads (Crochet Method). Not to mention the 6 months it took for me to grow that length is GONE and my hair is so short I couldn't even put in a hair-tie. (Still cant). As we chatted via text and I told her she did the WRONG METHOD, she was so cruel and mean and nasty. Her Ego or something made her get nasty, refusing to learn. I let it go but my entire family and friends are horrified at how short my dreads are and what the heck happened to them. Everyone I know to this day asks me why I cut my Dreads so short. Smh. I've never let a scissors touch them. I share my Dread Journey on IG for others that might be on their own Dread Journey as well.

Natural Trend Setters is my go to salon for my locs. I have been a customer for more than 20 years. I absolutely love the energy there and Simone knows hair and shares her knowledge. I truly appreciate them. Keep up the great work ladies! With gratitude.
