Flo is brilliant! I never tell her what I want done and I'm always thrilled with my haircut. And I get numerous compliments. My mother loved the style so much she immediately got an appointment for herself Well worth the 2 hour drive.

Positive: Cleanliness, Professionalism, Punctuality, Value Jesse, FLO, and Denise are always amazing. I can't thank them enough for always getting me in, and taking care of all my hair needs. When I moved from NYC, I was worried I wouldn't find a new stylist, who could cut curl hair. Jesse does his Gypsy technique, and my curls always look amazing! Thank you for taking care of all my hair needs! Services: Haircut, Hairstyling

The modest man who owns and operates the Yellow Strawberry Salon is truly a little know hair care guru to the rich and famous. His life story is the stuff of bestselling books and blockbuster movies. His knowledge of hair styling and wellness in unmatched by any on earth. The salons he has created have been incredibly successful and located in only the best areas around south Florida. But now Jesse has been generous enough to make his services available to regular folks like me and my honey.
I reside right by the Everglades but we travel all the way to the beach for our appointments with Jesse and Flo. From his shop in Lauderdale By The Sea he creates the most awesome and joy inspiring hairstyles in the most beautiful and calming surroundings. For his skill and abilities the costs of a visit to the Strawberry is truly surprisingly affordable. My cuts are always camera ready and occasional color is always amazing. And I am always entertained. This wonderful family owned and operated business will be your last stop for all of your haircare needs, I promise.
