I was staying for a week at the Dream Hollywood Hotel to be near Kaiser Los Angeles where my husband underwent heart surgery. I was advised by a case manager to take care of any personal needs prior to my husband's discharge as I would be very busy when I got him home. I desperately needed a haircut and was hoping to find someone who was experienced with short hair. Lucky for me, I asked Sara, manager at the Dream, if she knew anyone great for short hair cuts - who also might be able to get me in for an appointment on short notice. She got me an appointment at Umberto, where both her mother and grandmother have been going for years. Everyone with whom I interacted at the salon was warm and gracious. The owner? manager? made a point of greeting me warmly, saying Sara had told her all about my situation. The best part of my experience was Astrid!!! She is charming and gave me my most favorite haircut in years!
Pros: I am completely delighted with the haircut and color I got from the Asian man whose name I can't remember. Miracle! He's like a magician with hair. He has a strong accent so if you're a language snob leave your attitude at home and enjoy the experience cuz he's got a nice personality too. The salon itself is spacious and clean. The design of this salon is pleasing but frankly, not on the comfortable side;hard chairs, cold and old dryers, etc. Is there a reason they don't change out the water faucets for single-handed? I mean why do they have to keep adjusting the temperature between shampoo, rinse & condition? Why does the rest of the staff seem so uptight? Ugh! From the minute I walked in, the vibe was off. I have never felt so rushed in and out of a salon in my life! But again, I give 10 stars to the Asian man with the thick accent who did my cut and color - two process.
LOVE SYLVANA! She's been doing my hair and all of my friends for the last forever.She's done my hair for the last forever. She listens to instructions and by this point she knows my hair better than I do. She's extremely reliable and always on time.
