Our Story

Our Story

YJZJEYC was born from a passion for celebrating the diversity of Miami's beauty. Founded in 2015 by Marilyn De, our studio began as a small chair in her apartment and has grown into one of Miami's most sought-after beauty destinations.

Growing up in Miami's multicultural community, Marilyn saw a need for stylists who understood the unique challenges and beauty of all hair types - from the tight curls of our Caribbean neighbors to the silky waves of South American heritage.

Today, YJZJEYC at 9411 SW 36TH ST serves clients from all walks of life. Our team of seven skilled stylists brings decades of combined experience and a genuine love for their craft. We don't just do hair - we celebrate identity, culture, and confidence.

Our art-deco inspired studio reflects Miami's iconic architecture while our services reflect the city's vibrant, fashion-forward spirit. From natural hair care to bold color transformations, we're here to help you look and feel your absolute best.
