“I’m an LA transplant from the South who’s been hunting for a salon that’ll give me a comfortable no muss no fuss Black Experience in the city for awhile now. Rehab Salon has given me a place to call home. Their prices are very affordable, their scheduling doesn’t make you jump through hoops or have any crazy rules, and they have great work ethic. There are many good Black salons here but this Salon is my holy grail for rejuvenating my soul and confidence.
My first experience I was unsure how to perceive them. The front door is an ethereal gate. Once you step in it feels like you’re being transported to a mystical back room with fabrics, trinkets and oils welcoming you in this secret hideaway. It smells good and it sounds good. No weirdo solicitors, no street sounds, just good music, smells of incense, and a skylight to shine the sun on you. It’s truly a vibe.
For 2024 I’ve been on my healthy hair journey with Shun. I’m a short natural 4B/4C fine hair. I don’t know how to take care of it. It’s bad. Shun cut my split ends and shaped my hair with ease and didn’t get scissor happy in the slightest. Afterwards she silk pressed my hair and was sure to use a good heat protector and gave me advice for at home. It held for several weeks and when I washed out the press I was happy to see no heat damage at all and my curls reverted back to its natural curl pattern. Thank you, Shun!!
Meanwhile, everyone including clients is having a good time casually chatting up on Black pop culture. My hair feels healthier and it feels like I have many options in the future with their other stylist concerning color, extensions, braids or locs. They were doing men’s hair too! Line ups and retwists.
Street parking meters and assigned lot parking right across the street is currently at $10 cash or card.“
“Best hair ever love this place ! Very nice customer service ! Hair is best in town !!! Thanks guys!!!“
“Brandi will TAKE CARE of you. I came to her with hair I was so upset about—super streaky—and wanted something natural. She hit it out of the park! It looks like I am a natural blonde. Best hair Ive had done in over 10 years, or maybe my whole life. I will be coming back. Thank you Brandi!“
“I'm glad to have found Poshed Beauty Bar, run by the lovely Egle. I called in to schedule a next-day nail appointment and was booked within minutes. Milena and Liza worked on my gel removal and light touch up, and did a fantastic job. I'll be coming here for all of my nail needs from now on. Egle is so pleasant to talk with, and was kind enough to give me a couple recommendations to ensure my nails stay strong and healthy. Additionally, the salon is clean, well organized, and decorated nicely. Great overall experience!“
“There is plenty of parking and a very simple booking method. Excellent selection of services and a very pleasant staff. There were a ton of color and style options available when I used Builder Gel. I'm really pleased with my nails and would suggest them. 😊“
“If you're in LA, you must visit Hair Parlor on 8th for your hair needs. Let me just say that the entire experience from start to finish is superb.
The salon's service is impeccable. From the moment you step through the door, you're welcomed by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure your comfort, offering a variety of drinks to enjoy during your visit. It's clear that creating a positive experience for every client is their priority, making it a pleasure to return again and again.
Sophie possesses a remarkable talent for harmonizing your desired style with the health of your hair. Her dedication to both the health of my hair and achieving my desired style keeps me returning time after time. It's evident she not only possesses incredible skill but also genuinely cares for her clients. Each service is executed with meticulous attention, never rushed, ensuring perfection every time. As a colorist, she is truly a master of her craft—I've always left feeling completely happy and satisfied. I wouldn't hesitate to trust her with my hair for any occasion, big or small.“
“Gregga Prothero gave me the BEST haircut I've ever had in my life! No exaggeration. She knew exactly what I was trying to explain and envision. I really appreciate that the salon sends out a form to fill out where I could include reference photos and explain what I was going for prior to the haircut. I think that makes the experience a lot better because the stylist and the client have a little bit more understanding prior to when they actually meet for the haircut. I am very loyal to the hairstylist. I've had over the last 20 years and I'm really happy to say that I found Gregga. Also, the interior of the salon is gorgeous and they have excellent styling products. The value for the service I got was incredible. I highly suggest if you would like to find a new salon you can stay loyal to that you check out Gregga LA. I'll be back!“
“If I can give 100 stars I would they are honestly the best ! They make me feel beautiful everytime I go to them . By the way the first time I went to them my hair was so short it wasn’t growing once Wissam started to cut my hair . It started to grow so much ! Anyways he’s literally a magician when it comes to hair ! Best beauty salon ever !“
“I just came to see Danish for a Brazilian blowout for my hair. He did an absolutely amazing job and then he styled it. It is one of the best haircuts and style I've ever had. It looks like $1 million haircut without having to pay $1 million. I will be coming back to your regularly. He is my new favorite hairstylist. He is my go to Guy in Beverly Hills.“
“Been coming to Stef for years and now that she’s taken over the salon, it’s only getting better and better! Great service and experience every time.
Thank you Stef for making me look and feel so great every time I get my hair done. You’re truly a hair genius and I’d be lost without you!“
“I love this place and I SO appreciate Art. I will only be going here to get my hair cut from here on out. My last hair cut before I came here was a bit of a mess, so I came to Art with a challenge (to fix some botched side bangs) and he exceeded all of my expectations. He knew exactly what to do, listened to what I wanted, and stayed late to make sure my hair looked WONDERFUL. He is incredibly talented and I left loving my hair!!“
“I've been coming here for color treatment to Sally for years and I'm always having a good experience! She always knew and understood what I wanted. Highly recommend her!!“
“I’ve been cutting my hair with Jerry for a few years and I couldn’t ask for a better barber. I get a mid-low fade with slight scissor trim and Jerry nails it every time! Bonus, he is always punctual and has you out of the seat in 30 minutes.
Price is great, booking system works well. I’ve seen barbers accept walk-ins, but definitely try to schedule your appointment.
Shop culture is cool - it’s a clean, modern shop that is either playing fresh music, watching sports or the latest movies.
Tons of parking on the lot, but if it gets full you shouldn’t have a problem finding street parking.
Requested style: Mid fade / taper fades
Stylist: Jerry is great, listens to your request and takes feedback very well. He’s always on time and doesn’t keep you in the seat too long.“
“I've been going to Fariba for two years now and she is not only an amazing stylist but also very very nice! This time I went in to restyle my grown out layers and she gave me the curtain bangs and layers that I wanted. Fariba made my hair look healthy again and I love her styling so much! She knows how to work with Asian hair and makes great recommendations for hair care/products.“
“Just had a fantastic experience at this Venice Beach Barber Shop! Mark is very cool barber.
Highly recommend checking it out! ?????“
“Jiji was amazing and provided the best service. She was super meticulous with my haircut and took her time to make sure I got what I wanted. I would recommend her if you want layers and curtain bangs! She also took her time during the hair wash and massage portion of my appointment. Loved her!“
“My first time here and couldn't be happier. I surprised my wife with a makeover and from the minute we walked in we were greeted with all smiles and champagne. The decor is beautiful and relaxing and the stylists one better than the other. My wife's hair and make up turned out great and the owner Shushan was very welcoming Highly recommend it“
“I had an amazing experience at Salon de la V. I have been coming hair for years and Lucy and Vahe did a fantastic job with my hair extensions and the brazilian treatment. They were professional, friendly and most importantly my hair turned out amazing. The extensions look so natural and beautiful and with the shine that the brazilian treatment gave it was truly a confidence boost. Highly recommend Salon de la V for anyone looking for top-notch service.“
“I discovered this amazing place on a walk with my dog. I'm hooked and will never go anywhere else. I get my hair done here monthly and recently finished a full package of forma, the results are incredible. Their Biologique facials are one of a kind, every time I feel refreshed and my skin looks amazing. My Biologique specialist Oksana is amazing and has a perfect touch. I love this medspa, it helps me look 24, when in reality I'm actually 36. One stop beauty place that you can get all your beauty needs done and the people are so welcoming and knowledgeable.“
“Kelly does such a great job! She’s very meticulous and takes time to understand her client’s requests. This is the only hair salon I’ve been to since moving to LA because she’s a great reliable stylist“
“I’ve been coming to Somj for a few years now since moving to LA and she’s consistently great at getting my hair how I’d like it! I love the salon as well, they always provide some drinks and snacks which is appreciated when getting a more time intensive service. They also provide head massages at the hair washing station which I love. Today was great, thank you Somi and Ria for the wonderful service! :)“
“I went here to get my hair dyed for the first time ever! Was very easy to make an appointment. And Trisha did a wonderful job giving me the electric blue hair of my dreams!
Stylist: Trisha was absolutely amazing! She knew exactly what I wanted and did such a wonderful job. It was a really long process bleaching and then dying my hair but she was absolutely amazing the whole time and it turned out perfectly!“
“Mary has done my makeup for the Emmy Awards twice now and she is the best. She always makes me look like a queen and I really enjoy her as a person. I plan to book her for all red carpet events in the future.“
“Amazing salon! Keishiro cut my hair and he did it exactly how I asked him. Also he let me come in in a last min. Super nice and super great hairstylist with high quality skill!
I just moved to LA and this is my regular hair salon!
Keishiro San, thank you very much!“
“Wonderful experience with Emma! Highly recommend as she took her time cross checking with the reference. Very patient and knowledgeable about my hair type. Been cutting with her for a while and never fails to impress me every time.
The Salon itself was a vibe and felt welcoming. All assistants did their thing and was nice. Overall I recommend this location!“
“Kismet is such a charming salon with fantastic services and people. I get my hair done by Taylor W. (have followed her between multiple salons), and she is magic. I always look forward to spending time in the chair with her and have never been disappointed by her styling services. She is a wonderful human and incredible artist of all things hair! Kismet is a clean, fun, welcoming environment, and I’ve never enjoyed my time in a salon’s waiting room as much as I have there. Instead of being pushed to buy product on shelves like at some salons, I can instead browse art and useful items from local small businesses (and I’m never pressured to buy anything). You could get your hair cut and do your birthday/holiday shopping in one place, all while feeling great about it. 12/5 stars for Kismet and Taylor!“
“I Was looking for a new hairstylist/barber & i came across Sofia the owner of sofia car hair. As i walked into her workplace the attention to detail & care she took into curating her workspace was evident. This is a direct reflection to the quality of the cut you'll get, you wont find anyone with a better understanding of hair in LA other than her. She's attentive, caring, skillful & knowledgeable. Everything you need in a hairstylist to get you looking fantastic & staying fantastic. Don't miss out & book an appointment now.“
