For me, I found Kaori through Yelp. She is best reached through text, and she is responsive. The first time I showed her the haircut I was going for, she was able to understand immediately, and she was also able to work around my difficult hair (read: male pattern baldness). I have been going to Kaori for a year now and I plan to continue going!

Kaori was great! Very kind, fun to talk to, and skillful with my hair. Would come again for sure.read more

Mr. Ono was super detailed and took his time cutting, washing, and styling my hair to the style I wanted so super appreciative of him! It was $90 for the extra long women's haircut. I typically ask for layered haircut kind of similar to a butterfly haircut, and I think he delivered. There was a nice massage hairwash too. I took a photo the day after of my haircut so the styling wore off. I love how he took extra time to check every layer while cutting and styling! Bonus points for their super cute doggo in the shop.

From there, we did an 10 hour transformation going blonde and honestly, that appointment bonded us for life. I've never trusted anyone else since, she's basically my hairstylist and therapist hehe Her balayage is SOOOOO good. It always looks natural, grows out beautifully, and lasts forever without getting brassy. I'm pretty low-maintenance, and somehow my hair still looks put together months later because of her work. Her haircuts are also super clean, and she's actually the one who got me into curtain byayangs and I've stuck with them ever since. What I appreciate most is how much she cares about doing things the right way. When I decided to go back to my natural color, she didn't rush it or take shortcuts. She slowly transitioned me over time and kept my hair healthy through every stage. I live in Los Angeles now and will literally fly home just to see her, that's how good she is! After 11 years, she's more than just my hairstylist, she's someone I trust completely. Highly recommend!

Even the boyfriend forgot about his $35 special for Charles. Charles, bequeathed to us by the hair Gxds! He was my constant. The star for which my hair fate was tethered. How could they be so cruel as to take him back to France! A wide divide had been created. How would I ever find the golden scissors that my hair had come to expect? It took time. Years. I kept showing stylists how my hair was cut during its happiest moments with Charles. An A line bob with scissor texture only achieved by an expert was what I described. But no one got it. I tried several places. Even my step mom's hair stylist! (Yes. It got that bad!). No one would take on the challenge. Until Lacey. Lacey the hair coiffure. My hair relaxed knowing that it was in good hands. In with the scissors she went, I sighed. I remembered this feeling, this shape. Mama was back babies! Yes! Nailed it! 5 stars! 1million stars! I'm secretly hoping that people don't find this review because I want my hair time with those hands! Seriously. Dissatisfied with your stylist? Want a fresh revamp for '26 come to the Lane.

I really loved Stevie. She was so kind and fun to talk to. She made getting my hair colored, fun. After my color, I had a haircut with Lacey. Even as she was working, cutting off about 5 inches, I knew I was going to love it. By the time she was done, I was in love with my hair again. I got long layers and am so happy about it. What I appreciated the most is that Lacey was diligent about asking how I live. Knowing that I exercise daily, she made sure I would be able to put my hair in a pony tail. I got a lot of compliments from my family about my new hair and I will definitely be back to see these lovely ladies. Thank you both for making my hair look amazing and making me feel welcome.
