Our story

The salon Autumn built

Autumn Markley Salon is a luxury salon and artist collective on E Sunrise Blvd in Fort Lauderdale, founded by Autumn Markley - master stylist, extension specialist and educator. We specialize in hair extensions, dimensional color and customized transformations, and we are the home of AMFusion, the Autumn Markley Method.

Clients drive in from Miami, Brickell, Boca and West Palm Beach for extension work. We have been named Best Hair Salon by Fort Lauderdale Magazine in 2022 and 2024, and listed by Expertise.com every year from 2020 to 2024.

The salon carries her name because it carries her standard. Every extension, every color and every stylist here works to the way Autumn does hair.

Originally from Maine, Autumn has been behind the chair in Fort Lauderdale for more than two decades - as an independent stylist, as an Artistic Educator for Matrix, and with precision cutting training from the Vidal Sassoon Academy. In 2016 she moved from a studio into her first salon, six stations in Wilton Manors, and grew out of it quickly. The salon now lives on E Sunrise Blvd.

Extensions are her specialty. She designed AMFusion, her own approach to keratin-fusion K-tips - thorough, fast, and great results in half the time - and she teaches it to stylists through the AM Academy.

Today

E Sunrise Blvd

A luxury salon and artist collective, the home of AMFusion, and a team trained to Autumn's standard.

How we work

Different artists, one standard

01

A team on a tier program

Our stylists are a team, on a tier program. The talent is amazing at every level; depending on a stylist's level, time can factor into your appointment - but whoever you book, you walk out feeling amazing.

02

Dedicated to the craft

Everyone on the team carries several certifications, and keeps attending education events throughout their career. Learning never stops here.

03

Developed by Autumn herself

AMFusion is Autumn's own method, built around the best result in a shorter time frame. We all live busy lives, and being pampered should be efficient too.

04

Products we believe in

We are an R+Co salon, carrying exclusive products from the core line and R+Co Bleu: vegan, gluten-free, in recyclable containers, sulfate-free and approved for extensions. Our color lines are Kemon, Shades EQ and Goldwell.

Our mission

A salon experience that is truly one of a kind

Our goal at Autumn Markley Salon is to provide a salon experience that is truly one of a kind - where every guest feels comfortable, embraced, catered to and cared for.

Expert stylists

The highest quality of service, delivered by stylists who keep their certifications current.

Luxurious products

Only the most luxurious hair products, on the shelf and in the back bar: R+Co and R+Co Bleu.

Long-lasting relationships

We are building a relationship with every guest rather than filling a chair for an afternoon.

Sophisticated, welcoming

A sophisticated atmosphere that is still a comfortable one. Those two things are not in tension here.

Education

A method you master, and teach

AMFusion is Autumn’s own approach to keratin-fusion K-tips, designed to be thorough and fast, with great results in half the time. The team uses it every day, and Autumn teaches it to stylists through the AM Academy.

Teaching a method is its own discipline: every step has to be clear enough to pass on. That is what keeps the standard in this salon where Autumn set it.
