Daruma Workshop

I live in the neighborhood and have passed this place a million times traveling up and down Coral Way. Their cool, graphic sign intrigued me so I finally made an appointment for a long-​overdue haircut.
The shop is relatively small and has a little parking lot in the back. It was full up, so I grabbed a meter on the side street. It wasn’t an issue, even on a Saturday afternoon. I was early for my appointment and there’s not much in the way of a waiting area, but the receptionist was friendly and offered a drink while I milled about.
My stylist, Angelika, was very thorough in her assesment of my hair and really took the time to listen to what products I used, how I styled my hair, and what my concerns were. So many of the stylists I’ve been to in the past don’t take the time to consult and just jump into cutting — and my previous so-​so haircuts have often reflected that. I got a good vibe from her so I asked for her opinion on how to deal with my hair issues. She was really honest and so I gave her the go-​ahead to do what she wanted. The result was the best haircut I’ve had in YEARS! It’s growing out beautifully and I think I can happily say that I’ve found my new go-​to place in Miami. Thank goodness!
