South Tampa’s Best Hair Salon

DevaCurl, Hair Extensions & Color Experts

Barbara Forgione was the founder of the original Barbara Forgione boutique salon back in 2006. Her achievements included being nationally recognized including being featured in ‘Hot in My Salon’ video series of the top 100 trendy salons in the USA, appearing on MTV’s “Made” and TLC’s ’The Makeover Story,’ voted South Tampa’s Best Kept Secret and South Tampa’s Best Salon.

In 2019 the salon was acquired by a new owner, but still provides the best in DevaCurl, hair extensions, hair color, cuts, Keratin treatments and more.

In late 2019, the entire salon was completely remodeled and in July of 2021 we launched our new brand, Elevate Hair Salon.  The Elevate brand offers our South Tampa clientele more products and services including our own brand of hair extensions.

If you struggle with dry, brittle, or damaged hair, K18 may be the solution you’ve been searching for.

This treatment is suitable for all hair types and works by penetrating the hair shaft to repair broken disulfide bonds. The result is hair that looks and feels stronger, shinier, and more resilient. Whether you’ve been struggling with the effects of heat styling, chemical treatments, or just the wear and tear of everyday life, K18 can help restore your hair to its natural beauty.
