Absolute perfection of a stylist. If you are blonde, you know the struggle finding someone who keeps your hair from breaking and avoids turning you into an orange mess. After years of going to Holly, we moved to France. They have phenomenal colorists there, so I'm told, but after three botched jobs, I made an appointment with Holly for the second day of our LA vacation. My hair is gorgeous and feels so thick despite it being nearly ruined! It's really hard to find someone so talented. I actually originally found Holly via yelp so thought I'd return the favor and post as well. My hair looks amazing. Thank you, Holly! Please come visit the south of France! :) read more

Holly Jones Hair Design Studio - Holly fixed my broken orange mess! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Pasadena, California

Holly is truly the BEST out there. I've had my hair done at many different salons all over Los Angeles but Holly makes every client feel comfortable and beautiful. Last year Holly bleached out my entire head and gave me the most beautiful icy blonde hair. Since she did the entire service without touching my scalp, there was no itch or discomfort! And ladies, if you've ever gone platinum, you know what I'm talking about. She teaches all her clients about how to take care of their and how to style it on a daily bases. She's a true artist and makes it look effortless. I definitely recommend meeting Holly because I'm so happy I've found her! She's always amazing with highlights, haircuts, balayage and ombré! read more

I spent my first year in LA going from stylist to stylist that left me with ugly hair and an empty wallet to boot. After spotting a girl at a party with such beautiful hair color she recommended Holly Jones. Holly has been styling my hair ever since! I trust Holly so much that I feel comfortable enough to just sit in the chair and let her cut and color as she sees fitting to me and my personality. I always leave her salon looking fabulous and I've always received compliments after she's done my hair (especially the color). She's very communicative and honest with her opinion and listens to your qualms about your current hair situation, which is why she's so good at what she does. Some other tidbits to note: PARKING: there is underground parking and with validation only $4! COST: Holly's costs are pretty reasonable to everyone else in the market and of course it depends on what you're having done to your hair. read more

I've been seeing Holly religiously for several years and she has given me the best hair I've ever had. The color, cut, and style are great, the hair is strong and healthy, and I get compliments all the time. She's easy to talk to and I always look forward to our appointments. Not much street parking in the area but parking in the building is easy and only a few dollars with validation. read more

I have been going to Holly for almost a decade and I count my lucky stars that she takes care of me and my hair! I was lucky to be referred to Holly through a friend in the area when I relocated to LA. Holly takes the time to get to know her clients and their hair type. She has given me the best highlights and haircuts that suit me and my style. I always receive tons of compliments on my hair from friends and co-workers. Holly also stocks wonderful products in her salon. She is seriously the best and I cannot sing her praises loud enough. read more

Holly Jones is the best hairstylist in Los Angeles. I've been seeing Holly - exclusively - for over eight years (since first reading about her in Allure). Both her color and cuts are always fresh and on-point. I get compliments regularly and have had multiple friends become converts to sticking with Holly. In addition to having impeccable taste and creating modern but timeless cuts and color, Holly also has the absolute best products. Non-toxic and carefully curated, her in-salon boutique has the greatest selection of the very best beauty products on the market. (and a lot of them are hard to find, small production brands that she hand-picks) To top it all off, Holly is the kindest human and she takes such personal care of every client. She truly makes you feel like her only client. Holly is a hidden gem in the LA beauty scene and you're lucky if you get to visit with her. (Pro tip : plan a dinner or drinks after you visit Holly, because that hair will deserve a night out) read more

I found Holly two years ago on yelp (see her reviews here: http://www.yelp.com/biz/holly-jones-hair-design-studio-venice-beach-2) and she is absolutely fantastic. She recently moved to a studio in Santa Monica and I just noticed that silly Yelp didn't transfer all of her wonderful recos. Holly is incredibly talented and so wonderful to be around. She's constantly educating herself and team on the latest trends and can and will do anything requested. She's also given me some wonderful suggestions for my hair - from long ombre highlights to my new short bob to crazy fun cowgirl hair for a country bday party, she's never done anything that I don't absolutely love. She's the best and now a handful of my friends have left their styist to see Holly :-) If I ever move out of LA I'll still fly back to get my hair done with Holly... I can't imagine letting anyone else touch my hair. I also believe she's responsible for the majority of beautiful blondes walking around Abbot Kinney. She's always super booked-up so make sure to call and book. You won't be disappointed. read more

Holly has terrific taste and is devoted to what she does. She loves working with hair and her energy and dedication is palpable. I enjoy how flexible she is about what I need (including that she doesn't mind if I work or read a book) and how willing she is to take the lead about what to do with my hair -- since I know she's an expert and I'm not. She has a good sense of what I will be comfortable with. The vibe is relaxed and friendly, and not at all intrusive. The music is terrific. The privacy of her studio is also a major plus. read more

I've been going to Holly for almost 5 years now and have never been less than ecstatic about my hair when she's done working her magic. Holly is a true artist, and you can see it in the results. I am asked frequently where I have my highlights done and I wouldn't dream of letting anyone else cut my hair. The studio has moved a few times and I have never hesitated to follow, the new space is gorgeous and in a great location. read more

Holly is an angel - humbly, quietly and expertly weaving hair magic inside her intimate, unpretentious salon. Everything about Holly is soothing and real. I used to have to ready myself for my Meche appointments because the energy in there is so over the top (not to mention so incredibly overpriced). And as soon as Holly touches your hair, you know that she's got you. The way she assesses, even gently brushes, colors, cuts and talks with you lets you know you are in the hands of a talented, consummate professional who is absolutely passionate and incredibly knowledgeable about hair. And her results! I walked out of the there floating on air with my dream hair that no one ever got right even after many, many years with the likes of Meche salon and others. I went to a party that night (and a brunch party the next morning) and I was fielding compliments left and right. I am so happy I found Holly. I trust her skill and honesty to do my hair right every time. I am so glad I randomly asked a stranger with the most gorgeous hair - hey who does your hair?!? read more

I could go on and on forever about how amazing this salon is! Holly is incredibly talented and is a stylist that actually cares about you and your hair. I've never met a more passionate stylist and she goes the extra mile to make sure you're looking your best. I am constantly sending people her way for not only salon services but for hair products as well. Definitely worth the drive from Covina to Santa Monica. read more

Holly recently moved locations and darn Yelp didn't let her reviews transfer, but i just wanted to tell anyone reading this that CALL NOW. MIRACLE WORKER. I love Holly and her staff!! My original post and still stand 100% by it. She's been doing my hair for over 2 years now and most of her clients have been going for YEARS. Holly Jones is a hair wizard. My hair has always been very unmanageable, curly (the damaged kind), and horrible to color. What I thought was a good haircut, or a good ombre' was completely changed when Holly touched my hair for the first time. Her attention to detail is EXTRAORDINARY. She makes sure the cut/color/highlights/whatever you get done is absolutely perfect before she lets you go. And if you want an appointment, she is in very high demand so call ASAP! I literally count down the days until my hair meets her touch again. Oh, and she has the BEST hair products in her store front. The front desk coordinators are very knowledgeable and will recommend the best shampoos, conditioners, styling products etc for your specific hair type. They were taught by the best- Holly herself. Her hair styling and products have changed my life!! Book your appt now! Worth every penny! read more

First of all, Holly and her team are awesome! Super chill and fun ladies that make you feel very relaxed and comfortable, while keeping you laughing and entertained too. Her studio is cozy and chic with super cool decor. Holly's attitude and the whole atmosphere there makes for the best hair experience, ever. Hands down. She's the only person I trust in LA to cut and color hair. I've gone to countless salons and I'm never going anywhere else again. She's great at listening to what you want and actually giving it to you (which isn't something I can say about all stylists I've been to). Her vision for hair is also incredible, if you don't know exactly what you want, trust me, her and her team will WOW you. She gets what's flattering with skin tones/hair colors/face shapes and will give you the best cut/color/style you've ever gotten. AND on top of that she stocks some of the best products I've ever used. Parking is super easy, and free with validation! Super convenient location. A+++ Hair stylist, wish I could give her more than 5 stars! read more

I have been getting my hair cut by Holly for six years, and the only reason why I haven't written a review is because I didn't want to have to compete for salon appointments with all of you. But whatever, she's the best so I'm going to put it out there now. (I book out my appointments for the year anyway.) Holly is an experienced stylist. She understands your face, hair (texture/flow/sassiness/etc.), the shape of your head, and more without you needing to say much. She's smart. She understands aesthetics. She has actually influenced my personal style. Styling, cutting and coloring hair is not just her "job", it is one of her passions. When I sit in one of her chairs, she brushes my hair with love and good energy. That sounds very hippy--but I assure you my hair cuts are serious business. Holly cares about making me/you/everyone look good. I am really picky about my hair. I've had a lot of bad hair cuts in the past. My hair is like one huge flat cowlick. But Holly cuts my hair perfectly every time so that I don't have to spend as much time styling it in the morning. Because that is what is right for me. I learned about my hair from Holly. She also has the best quality products. Just getting my hair washed by her is a treat, let alone getting a cut and style. She is a skilled master colorist--though I personally don't color my hair. She won't brag to you about this, but she also styles/cuts/colors celebrity and models' hair when she's not in her studio. She works for herself and not in a big salon because she is a badass and she doesn't need someone else bossing her around. Go to Holly and be fabulous. read more
