I can't say enough wonderful things about my experience with Gina Gittler at Chris McMillan Salon! I came in with overgrown, grown-out brown roots that desperately needed attention, and Gina completely transformed my hair into a beautifully blended, sun-kissed blonde highlight look. Her attention to detail and expert technique made all the difference -- the transition from root to tip looks seamless and natural, not the least bit brassy or harsh. Gina clearly has a gifted eye for color and truly listened to what I was going for. If you're looking for a colorist who delivers stunning results and makes you feel like the best version of yourself, look no further than Gina Gittler. I left the salon feeling like a completely new person. Highly recommend -- 5 stars all the way! read more

Always a treat to come here, excellent cuts each time that work with me not against. I've been coming so long I feel like it's my second home! read more

OMG do not go here if you have short hair they do not have to cut. Don't know how to cut short hair. I got home. My Masseuse thought I had chemotherapy. They cut my hair so short I showed them pictures of a pixie the hair came out as if I just had a chemotherapy session. My Masseuse was in the shock and I just lost £60 and then he just thought I was going through chemo it was the worst haircut I've gotten in my entire life. I went to umbertos for 30 years. Never had a bad. Moment . They closed unfortunately due to a fire at El PortoVinonext door. It's hype, publicity and I mean I'm a celebrated artist I could whistle the celebrities I painted pray on the people that were famous that they cut Hair on to get more people to come in but don't go there if you need a short haircut I'm still in shock. I'm telling you my Masseuse saw me and he thought I sorted Timo therapy it was the worst haircut I've gotten in my entire life. read more

Abby is the best colorist around.Make appointments early she books up . She is kind and listens to what you would like done.

Finally, after 7 years of living in LA I have found my salon! I have been here three times now - two for cuts and one for color and I can't say enough great things about this place. Everyone delivers such high quality, they're so nice, the place is adorable, the products top of the line, and to top it off, always parking in the surrounding blocks. There is such a welcome relief when you finally find the one. read more

I can't say enough nice things about this salon! Everyone here is so kind, professional, and genuinely helpful. I brought my 89 year old mother in for a color and cut, and she looks absolutely amazing! Lien did her color, she was so kind, patient, and the color turned out perfectly. Our stylist, Bre, was also wonderful, thoughtful, attentive, and gave my mom exactly the cut she wanted. Both Assistants were fantastic, it shows how much they love what they do I realize we were probably not the typical clients here, but everyone was so incredibly thoughtful and welcoming. They took their time, really listened, and most importantly, were so kind and genuine toward my mother. It meant a lot to see how patient and caring they were with her, it truly made the whole experience special. Thank you to everyone for making our visit such a great one! read more

I just wanted to say that Cameron is superb with hair color. I was so thrilled with what he did for me and I received so many compliments after getting my new highlights and low lights. Cameron knew exactly what would look good with my skin tones and I'm extremely appreciative for that. Not only is he talented but he was very kind and funny so sitting there for a few hours getting my hair done was enjoyable. read more

I'm disappointed in the highlights I got from Gina. $450 JUST for highlights. It doesn't look much different from when I walked in. I just ended up going home and using a box kit. I could've just done it myself and saved time and money. read more

Leila is the best! Gave me a wonder blowout and is such a kind soul! The hair studio itself is beautiful and very relaxing. Great vibes. Smells great and they gave me some tea! Feels like you're in someone's house. read more

Been to this salon several times to see Abby Hardy. I've actually followed her from 3 different salons, and she never disappoints. She is the queen of this melty, sun kissed balayage. I got my hair cut with Jarid a few times now and he is such a talented soul. As always, excellent job, feeling super fresh. Xo thanks! read more

Gina is the absolute best colorist I have ever been to. I've been seeing her for over a year and she has completely transformed my hair. I came in with broken pieces and so much damage. She gave me a plan, was honest about what we needed to to and worked with me on my comfort level of highlights and being darker blonde for a while before getting my hair healthy enough to go light again. The salon is always welcoming, I can always get an appointment and I love the vibe when I come inside. My hair has never looked better, has never been healthier and I owe it all to Gina. She also highlights my daughter's hair and we absolutely love her! I would HIGHLY recommend Gina and I will never go to anyone else for color. She's the best!! read more

I don't normally leave reviews, but I had a disappointing experience with Gina. She was unprofessional and I felt rushed through the consultation. Needless to say my highlights did not come out how I asked for. I would not recommend this salon to others based on my experience. read more

I heard good things about Gina, but I did not get the look I wanted from her. I felt like she didn't quite understand what I was asking for, she seemed kind of distracted. But it's a nice looking place and everyone was polite. read more

Gina is one of the best colorists that I've had! I've come to her with over processed and overall bad coloring hair and she is amazing at fixing the previous mistakes while making your hair look natural and blended. Her attention to detail and the way she takes her time to make it look perfect is so valuable to me. Highly recommend everyone to see her read more

I struggled for years to have my color done the way i wanted it, and especially to have it done well CONSISTENTLY! I used to get so much anxiety going to other colorists at different salons because i never knew if I was going to be happy with how my hair turned out... and then Cameron Canchola came into me life! Every single time Cam does my hair, I leave the salon completely satisfied and feeling beautiful! In the 28 years that I have been coloring my hair, I have never had the experience i have with Cam: easy, professional, and wonderfully consistent. read more

Had an amazing experience at this salon. Shah is a magician. I went from dark brown hair to bleach blond in 1 session. I am so happy with my result and would highly recommend him. You can see more of his work on insta @shahcolor He was extremely patient, kind, and accommodating. The salon was great and the staff was super friendly! He also told me how to maintain my color and how to style. He went above and beyond. read more

KC Carhart is quite possibly the most brilliant stylist walking in 2017. I have followed her to three salons now and will continue to do so until she retires, which will be far earlier than when I do at this rate. If you need a complete color overhaul, she's your woman- if you need a subtle touch up, she's your woman. I met her several years back when living in DC and having had my hair destroyed. She brought me back to life, but even better! At this point, I would let her die my hair rainbow colored and trust it would be exquisite- and- I would trust her to turn around and take me back to my beachy blonde seamlessly with no weirdness showing. She's a talent, a force, has a gift- a blonde genius too for natural brunettes of all shades. Unabashedly, wholeheartedly- i implore you to leave the banal banter and crappy highlights behind and go to KC- who is now at a super cute salon that is homey and hip and you probably have heard of- Chris Mcmilan. And- don't just take my word for it- check her out on instagram! read more

Mixed feelings. Pete cut and styled my hair, he was amazing! 5/5! Abby on the other hand colored my hair, and I honestly felt like she was rushing through it to get rid of me as fast as possible. I was hoping to get some highlights and asked for her opinion but was immediately shut down, then she went off to mix the base color and start the work quickly without giving me a chance to think and digest. There was a lot of attitude from her side and I didn't feel very welcome. Maybe she was just having a bad day, or I'm only a one-time client that she doesn't care about, but I really was excited to get my hair colored by her after seeing her work online. read more

Started having my hair cut (recently moved here) by Pete, like my $250 cut and him just fine. Was definitely going to keep coming back, but no more. I'd asked him for a recommendation for a styling product, which I bought, but the first time I used it the scent was so strong I got an instant migraine. I called the salon to return it, but was told they do not accept product returns. Like Chris McMillan can't afford to accept a $38 dollar bottle of product back from a customer who had every intention of returning. Bad business, shows no good will towards this client. I've been to upscale salons and never seen that as their policy. Pretentious read more

This (long overdue) review is for the amazing Dani P who never fails to give me the most vibrant and refreshed hair everytime. I've been seeing her for years when she was an assistant and continue seeing her now that she is on the floor. I have a lot of hair and it's very thick and wavy right up to the root which many stylists/colorists find difficult to work with. Dani is very meticulous with her highlighting technique and gets it right every time, especially with her toning formulas. Also, her shampoos are absolutely amazing! It's always a great time being in her chair - I'd follow her wherever she goes. read more

Incredible hair stylists and Kc is the best colorist and Skevo is a great hair stylist and great at hair cuts

This salon is worth the drive for me up from San Diego and Robert Lopez is worth every single penny when it comes to my hair. Effortless and professional he knows the look you're going or and executes it perfectly. I leave feeling like a rock star and he is super friendly and easy going which tops off the experience. His assistant and other people I've encountered have been really laid back and nice and I've never got the stuck up vibe from anyone. Also--if you need someone to completely change your life when it comes to color see Justin Anderson. Took my dark brown and faded highlights and gave me something bright and fresh and NATURAL looking. Still looks great months after. Again, worth allllll the $&&. You want the best doing your hair so come to this salon and see these two gems. Can't wait to be back again!! read more

This salon is so dope ! I've been seeing Marcos for close to 3 years. His cuts are so on point! He has amazing skills and understands his clients needs and and offers great advice for those moments when you feel like a change would be fun. Staff is super friendly, the space is charming and comfy. Chris can be seen cutting Jennifer Anniston's hair on occasion and let's be honest that doesn't suck :) Highly recommend Marcos for any guy wanting his hair to look the best it can ! Truly a master of his craft ! read more

I had my hair highlighted by Lien today and it looks incredible. She is such a professional and very meticulous. My hair turned out better than I could have imagined. I can't wait to go back. read more

I must start by saying that 4 months ago I went to a different Beverly Hills Salon for highlights and my hair was burnt beyond repair and orange in color. I have been cutting my hair and using treatments for 4 months in the hopes it would come back to life. Yesterday I went to Chris McMillian Salon with the recommendation of my cousin. Needless to say I was beyond nervous to try again with color. I was blessed to meet Kelsey Hellenbrand who not only did an amazing job but did it in such a gentle manor as to not damage my hair anymore. She also introduced me to Marcos who gave me an amazing haircut that maximizes the look I was trying to achieve. Needless to say, I left happy and grateful for their talent and services. Thank you Kelsey...meeting you was a blessing when I personally needed it most. I'll definitely be seeing you all again. read more

I was hanging around Beverly Hills on vacation from SF and got the sudden urge to dye my virgin, mousey brown hair blond. I don't know what got into me, but I decided that it must be done asap. Contacted friend's mom, and she recommended her salon, Chris McMillan. When I called the receptionist was great. She miraculously said that she could get me an appointment in 30 mins with Leann. A bit crazy right: basically a walk in for a full head of highlights at a great salon. Done. Leann was so wonderful and nice. She saw my photos and warned me against over processing. It was decided that I would get full highlights but that they would be able to grow out without any streaking. She really nailed the color. Perfectly fits my hope for the whim coloring session. Will definitely be back next time I am in the area! read more

I needed to change up my stylist. Someone suggested The Chris McMillian Salon. After reading reviews and insta stalking a few of the stylists, I decided to give Marcos a try. At my appointment, we talked about my hair, what I like about it, what I don't like and what I would like. We talked through the options and I loved what I heard. Marcos was what I was searching for... someone who translates what you want, analyzes your hair and makes expert recommendations based on their knowledge and skill. WOW, WOW, WOW! I just love the cut he gave me - looks great when I give myself extra time to do a great blowout and looks great I only have time to dry it up a bit. Salon is super cool and comfortable with great support staff! I'm looking forward to always having great hair! read more

Look no further, go to Marcos. I spent weeks researching and finally found Marcos! I needed a drastic hair cut, from my long hair to a LOB and it was every bit as I dreamt it would be. His recommendation to go slightly shorter with no layers was spot on. I would usually watch nervously in the chair as a stylist cuts my hair and fret about how it would look like but with Marcos and Susan, I found myself completely at ease, only to look up to admire his genius snips. I just washed my hair today and it looks just like his blow dry cut on the day!! This is extremely important to someone as low maintenance as me who doesn't own a hairbrush. No point looking like a million bucks on hair cut day but a buck chuck after you wash your hair. I still feel like a million bucks. Check out his Instagram and his precision cuts if you're in doubt. You're in capable hands with Marcos. I am super fussy with finding the perfect stylist and am glad I found the one! read more

fantastic salon. very down to earth stylist. Kristophe gives a great cut and blowdry and Matthew gives a great hi light. way to snag these two from F.S. Chris. go.... you will leave feeling like a million. update: Kristophe now works at Warrren-Tricomi in West Hollywood. read more

Dom is da Bomb! Nobody does a chicker bob then him. Period. It's worth every penny to sit in his chair and have him work his magic on you. I've been in this town long enough to have gone to some of the best stylists, and none of them have ever come close to the way his cuts turn out. Don't hesitate, if you want to feel like a badass and have the IT cut that makes you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself, GO to Dom! read more

Got a cut from Skevo yesterday and couldn't be happier. I was little nervous at first as it was my first session with him but his easy going demeanor and attentiveness to my requests put all that to rest.
