5 /5 Mandy P: I highly recommend Liza Kaleel at Salon Above! I first found her in my late teens and introduced her to all the women in my family—she’s been our go-to ever since. Liza is a true artist, not just a hairdresser. She sees every client as a fresh canvas, creating beautiful, personalized looks with expert precision.
She’s passionate, fiery, and incredibly talented—a master of color, cuts, and styling who instinctively knows what works best for each individual. Her expertise extends far beyond the salon chair—she’s trained and led workshops, mentored stylists, and even traveled to do my hair as Ophelia in Hamlet for the final Shakespeare at the Met.
I hadn’t had my hair professionally done in a long time—life, the pandemic, and everything in between took priority. But coming back to Liza reminded me how transformative a great haircut and color can be. My mom, who rarely trusts anyone with her hair, has gone to her for years, and I see why—Liza is a rare gem in Jacksonville.
If you want a stylist who knows hair inside and out and will make you feel amazing, book an appointment with her now. She’s top, top, top of the top!
