I am very picky with my fine and long brown hair. I have given up on highlights since I was little, having had too many people destroy my hair. I am Persian, and no one seemed to ever get my highlights to look natural with my tan skin color, until now! I got Ombre, a cut and blowout through Groupon and only decided to due to the amazing reviews she has had. I am also extremely picky about my haircuts because everyone always chops my hair off. My hair grows very slowly, so I like to keep it as long as possible. She listened to all of my concerns and the result was incredible. I've gotten so many compliments since my hair transformation. Not to mention, she is the ultimate Eyebrow Master. I have been threading my eyebrows for years at various places, and no one-- I repeat no one-- has ever made them look this good. I looked like a new person walking out of her salon! Best of all, Kapu has the best costumer service. She makes you feel like you're at home, and is incredibly warm and welcoming. I know that I can always come to her for any of my beauty needs or concerns. I already set up an appointment with her to do my Brazilian Blowout. I am excited because she understands my hair unlike others. I've gotten my keratin treatment before at another place and it didn't work. She knows what works with my hair and what doesn't, which is why I trust her with anything! read more

Kapuree was so sweet an quick to respond. Had a nice time chatting with her and really love my haircut! In an out in under an hour. Highly recommend her:) read more

Amazing service, attention to detail and delightful personality. For male and female grooming of all kinds, Kalpana is your go-to lady! Will continue to see her for eyebrow threading in the future! read more

Kapuree was amazing! My friend and I both got full highlights, hair cut and style done together and she was so accommodating in working with our schedules. She took so much time on each person - meticulously placing the highlights, really listening to what we wanted and the style that we wanted to emulate. Even when the color came out a little light on my friend, she was careful to put back color and made it look perfect! She was really fun to be around, we had great conversation. We both got huge compliments on our cut and color. Would definitely come back! read more

Kalpana is the best threader I have ever been to. She's very thorough and somehow manages to make it almost pain free. After just a few months of going to her my hair has become finer and smoother. She's made it so that I can go longer in between appointments with no problem. Even girls that don't think they need threading should try it. It makes your skin looks perfect and smooth. I always get compliments after I've been threaded. It compliments my makeup and makes it look flawless. She is incredible and I highly recommend her!!!! read more

Kalpana is a GENIUS with threading ! She can make wonders happen ! I am a loyal customer, and dare not stray from her talent ! She's amazing at eyebrows, which I see her for on a bi-monthly basis. I go from tumbleweeds to sexy Middle Eastern arches in minutes ! I took my best friend, with her sparse eyebrows, once we left, her eyebrows actually looked fuller from the threading ! Amazing I tell ya ! Kalpana also does my Brazilian BlowOut, which I HIGHLY recommend. My ethnic hair is so much more manageable. She uses the best products, nothing watered down :) Go go go go ! read more

I have found my new hairstylist! I have been putting off getting a haircut in LA, hoping I could make it back to my hometown but I finally couldn't take it anymore which lead me to Kapuree! She fit me and my friend in on short notice and did wonders on our hair. We both had our hair cut and colored by Kapuree and could not be happier with the results. She helped us figure out what would be the best look for us and talked us through the process making sure we were happy at every step. Since we both got our hair done together we were able to get to know Kapuree and she could not be a nicer, more wonderful person to spend the day with! We were laughing all afternoon long! I feel so lucky to have found someone so genuine and talented and I can't wait to go back! Thanks Kapuree! See you soon! read more

My friend and both purchased a lifebooker deal for kapuree including highlights, cut and blowout such a deal!! You never know about the lifebooker deals but this one was definitely worth it. Kapu was accomodating from the beginning. To start out she fit both my friend and I in on the first Saturday was asked for. We both were able to go and make a day of it at salon republic. We knew that we would be at the salon for while in order for both of us to get the full package, but it was way worth it and a blast! Kapu was so sweet and kind, completely listening to what we wanted our hair to look like. I took in a bunch of pictures with me and we went through them and Kapu was able to come up with the perfect look for me and my friend. When I first got there I had an awful ombré highlights look and when I left I had beautiful bright and even highlights. The lady does miracles! We stayed at the salon for the day so we got to know Kapu and by the end of the day it was like we were old friends just talking and laughing! I would definitely recommend Kapu and I will obviously be back. Overall a wonderful experience and hair stylist. I want to also try her threading it looked great as well! read more

I went to Kapuree for ombre and the result was awesome! She took the time to listen to what I wanted and gave me advice on what would look best. The result was amazing. She was so sweet to talk to without being overbearing. She clearly knew her way with color and gave me exactly what I was looking for. I will say - The parking situation is not the best : the salon is located in a plaza and they only validate for 90 mins. So when all was said and done, it cost me $15.00 to park. That was the only caveat. I will definitely be going back! read more

I'm new to the West Hollywood area and decided on Kapuree for an eyebrow threading after seeing all of the great reviews on Yelp. Since then, I've visited Kapu every two weeks for a thread and I'm very, very happy with her. She is extremely kind, professional and meticulous about her work. Even when her suite is full or she has a busy day, she treats you and your brows with precision and care. Unbeknownst to me, one of my brows appeared to be shorter than the other and she respectfully communicated that she wanted them to grow in a little bit. I appreciated her honesty and felt like she genuinely cared and wasn't just "going through the motions". She's very flexible with her appointment times and I've even set some up via text message. I've never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes, either. Overall, she's a really nice woman who does an impeccable eyebrow thread at a fair price. I'm planning on booking a haircut with her, too. read more

Kapu is literally the most amazing woman ever. She is the only hairstylist I've come across that has been able to give me the blonde that I've always wanted. No other stylist has been able to work with my hair color as well as she has. She understands hair, she will give you the honest truth about what will work and what won't, and she is so nice and comforting. She is located in Salon Republic (on sunset) in suite 3. First stylist in LA that I've come back to more than once. :) read more

I loved how Kapu did my hair! She did an amazing job. I got a new look from long to short and loved it, it loos super modern and she transformed me. Also I had a lot of dead ends and she fixed it, everyone has told me that looks amazing, just go and trust her! You wont be disappointed! read more

My mom, sisters and I have been using Kalpana for almost 6 years and fell in love immediately! Kalpana is always available whenever we need her for threading and waxing all parts of the body. She also has a studio in west hollywood where she offers hair (cut, color, Brazilian blowout) and threading. The best part is that she makes home visits which is really convenient for the whole family. She is amazing at what she does and takes care of her clients with the upmost professionalism. She is really sweet and caring and will help you get the look you really want and deserve. We love Kalpana!! read more

I first went to Kapuree after a stylist completely ruined my hair. He over processed it and highlighted to a orange gold. I was really upset knowing I would have to cut it. It was frizzy and frayed on the ends. When i sat in her chair, she seemed to know exactly what she wanted to do and was very sensitive to the fact that I wanted to keep as much length as possible. The haircut she gave me was the best cut I have ever had; the "re color" I got 6 weeks later is amazing. Kapuree also does fantastic threading. I highly recommend her for that too. read more

When I bought a Lifebooker deal for a cut, highlights, and blowdry at Kapuree, I was excited by all the positive reviews I saw online...and I was not disappointed. Kapu was willing to work with my schedule and stayed late in order to fit me in last week. She was undaunted by my super long and ultra thick hair, and didn't rush through the process even though it ended up taking over 3 hours. As a newbie to having my hair lightened, I was definitely nervous about it, but Kapu did a brilliant job and my hair turned out looking more beautiful than ever and the highlights look amazingly natural, which was exactly what I wanted. While there, I also had her thread my eyebrows, and she did a great job shaping them quickly and painlessly. I was so happy with my service that I decided to go to Kapu again this week to get a Brazilian blowout. Even though she usually doesn't work Mondays, she was willing to come in a see me since my schedule was otherwise difficult to work with. Not only did she happily meet with me, but she brought me wine to sip on during the appointment, which after a long day at work, definitely hit the spot! It was another 3 hour ordeal to do the treatment, but it flew by and I left extremely happy with my new hair. I highly recommend Kapu for any threading, coloring, and haircuts. She's extremely personable and I promise you'll leave her studio feeling more than satisfied with her service! I'll definitely be returning to her again. Thanks, Kapu! read more

Kalpana did an amazing job color correcting my hair. She is a true artist and works with you to achieve the look you want. I absolutely love my haircut and highlights! read more

Kapuree - Beautiful color correction, highlights and haircut. - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

After my last hairstylist of three years moving out of state I decided to purchase a promotion on Lifebooker for an Ombre color and Haircut. Generally, I am skeptical, but after reading the reviews for Kapuree I felt I could trust her to give me the look I was going after. I had already had an Ombre months before and really just wanted to touch it up and add a few highlights around my face. I came prepared with images and stressed how it is important to me to keep a more natural look. Kapuree was very sweet and seemed confident at what she was doing. Mid-way through I noticed she started to put bleach at the root of the top of my head, i stopped her instantly and said I do not want the top of my head light, only the frame of my face. She quickly removed the color with a towel. NONE of the images I showed her had bleach on the top of the head at the root. I started to feel nervous and my instincts kicked in (from the past, I have learned to listen to that voice, but I tried to remain calm until after she rinsed my hair). After being rinsed, she told me that she was going to put a toner on, and that it would cost extra (something that should have been mentioned in the beginning and wasn't) My hair is naturally a light brown and I had never had to use a toner in the past when i had an Ombre, I generally look at a toner (in most cases) as a way for the stylist to cover-up any mistakes. And a HUGE mistake is what I got. After being rinsed I had awful over- bleached streaks at the root on top of my head and under my hairline around my face ( THIS WAS NOT OMBRE) I became really disappointed and stressed my feelings in the most calmly manor, hoping that she would jump on fixing it....I understand mistakes happen, but BE RESPONSIBLE, ADMIT TO IT and FIX IT! Kapuree's response was "that is what you asked for...", NO! That was not what I asked for! I even showed her the photos again, which clearly was nothing close to what was on the top of my head. I told her, this is not right and it looks bad and asked her to fix it.... 5 1/2 hours later...YES, I repeat, 5 1/2 hours later she attempted to make my hair semi-decent. There are still over bleached streaks by my root that I'm hoping I can conceal. Overall, I was very disappointed. The haircut she gave was not bad, but I would not trust her with my color or anyone else's! With Lifebooker, it would be easy to say " I got what I paid for..." But by the end of the appointment I paid " $65 on Lifebooker, $40 for Toner, 5 1/2 hours of my day wasted and gave a $45 tip to leave unhappy... I'll let you be the judge. read more

I bought a Lifebooker deal for the Bayalage and Haircut. I tried to make an appointment by calling, and every time I called, I got sent to voicemail. Then, I decided to text and they have the worst texting system ever. It took a long time to get a response and every time I tried to make an appointment, they were unavailable. So, I finally booked an appointment on Valentine's Day and I forgot to write it down so I totally forgot about it. They don't notify you in ANY way that you have an appointment. I was marked as a No Show and thus, they marked my life booker deal as used. I tried to reschedule, but apparently they don't reschedule No Show appointments. So I basically wasted $65 on the deal because I can no longer use it since they won't make an appointment with me. I'm really annoyed and I HATE this salon immensely because of their bad customer service. I should have booked it with a different salon. I wish I could give them 0 stars, but unfortunately, that isn't an option. read more

Kapuree is my new go-to stylist. She is amazing!! I frantically called her last week after I got an awful dye job at a different salon, and she moved her schedule around to fit me in on a busy Saturday. She took the time to really listen to my concerns and did everything she could to make it exactly what I wanted. She is a miracle worker with color!! She is also a really great person and easy to talk to, and did an outstanding job threading my eyebrows. I HIGHLY recommend her! read more

Ruined my hair. I bought a living social deal and she charged me in addition to the deal. I had to go to another hair stylist to fix her mistakes. I had to cut my hair short in order to get the cheap dye out of my hair. My hair was so dry and damaged. Thank goodness I found a new hair stylist to fix my awful hair right away. STAY AWAY especially if you have long and thick hair. AWFUL read more

Love my hair and my new hair dresser! Kapu is so sweet and friendly. She is a very talented hairdresser and after reading the reviews it looks like I am going to be getting my eyebrows threaded during my next visit. read more

Kapuree was FANTASTIC. I bought the groupon, and it was the easiest process. She was incredibly accommodating with my busy schedule, and she also allowed me to use my own colors that I'm so particular about, no problems at all. I am SO happy with my hair, she's made it fresher than it's ever been, and more over, she is the loveliest lady, and I thoroughly enjoyed our chats throughout the process. She listens, which is so rare in hairdressers these days. I'm so happy that after nearly 3 years living in LA, I've finally found the woman I will have do my hair every time. She's really incredibly and I can't recommend her enough. If you want someone you can trust to listen to what you want done, this is your gal!! read more

I found Kapuree on living social and I'm really glad I did! She gave me a haircut and the most beautiful, natural looking balayage highlights! This is the first time I have colored my hair at all in years and years, so I was a little nervous, but she did a great job of listening to what I want and keeping it subtle. She is also very kind and professional. Definitely recommend her! read more

I LOVE my hair! Kalpana is absolutely AMAZING! I walked into Karpuree (inside Salon Republic) after 6 months since my last appointment at a different salon -- and came out the happiest I have ever been! I had a couple of ideas in mind, mainly wanting to hide my gray hair that has been peeking its ugly head and Kalpana listened and gave her opinion in a totally professional way. Needless to say, I eventually told her to go for whatever she pleased because everything she suggested made sense and kept true to what I initially envisioned. Kalpana is a joy to be around and very down to earth. I highly recommend her! read more

Kalpana does the absolute best job on my eyebrows. I was so nervous to go to someone new for my eyebrows but she has never disappointed and I've been going to her for over 3 years. I would not trust anyone else but her. My brows look natural and still maintain their thickness while looking clean. The salon validates for parking which is also a plus. Do not go to anyone else for your eyebrows! read more

A++ threader. She uses some kind of special thread and it's virtually painless. She also shaped my brows nicely and my brows are light and sparse in certain areas. She is also an extremely nice person. I bought a Yelp deal, but I will continue going to her at full price because she is amazing! read more

I found Kalpana's salon through Lifebooker. Immediately upon arrival, I was impressed by her pleasant demeanor and level of expertise. This was my first time having my hair highlighted or colored in any way and she not only did a fabulous job but educated me on hair color as well. I am glad I found her, I would recommend her to any of my friends, family, coworkers, etc.! read more

I have been coming to kapu for about 2 years now after getting the worst wax on my eyebrows ever. She was able to turn them back into exactly how I had wanted them to begin with. One of the most genuine people I have ever met, very caring about her clients. I have never left disappointed, she is amazing!!!! read more

I recently moved to LA in February. Kalpana was referred to me by a friend. I can't begin to stress how bad my eyebrows were when I came to see her for the first time. What she has done to my eyebrows is pure MAGIC. They are way fuller and actually have an unbelievable shape now. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to maintain, fix, or enhance your brows. SHE'S THE BEST! Thank you Kalpana! Xoxo read more

Kapu is EVERYTHING. Not only does she really take the time to listen to what you want, her intense color theory background allows for masterful results. She has done everything from foil highlights to balayage but our most extreme time together was when she single-handedly (and in a single sitting) performed a 7 hour color correction. I knew then that she would be the only person touching my hair moving forward. Go see her, you will be thrilled. read more

I recently had a full foil done with Kalpana, and she did an amazing job! I had ombre highlights going into it and she did a great job lightening my hair but keeping the ombre look still going. I love the results, and she gave me an amazing blow out as well! I can tell that she is well liked by her clients and will definitely plan to go back for hair care .. and I need to try her threading!! I heard she's an expert! read more

This woman saved my hair. I'd had quite some trouble with other stylist and highlights. After reading the yelp reviews, I bought a Lifebooker and cannot tell you how worth it it was. She was no bs and completely took care of me. She took the orange brassy color out of my hair and was great with conversation without too much chat. My friends cannot believe the difference in my hair and neither can I. read more

I've been getting my eyebrows done with Kalpana for about 2 years now and just recently got my hair dyed for the first time with her. She is fantastic and always makes sure I'm happy with my results! I'd highly recommend Kalpana to anyone! read more

Kalpana is great. She did an amazing job. She did a cut and highlights and I love it. I would highly recommend her.

You are in very talented and capable hands with Kapu. Besides the fact that she has such a lovely spirit, she is a perfectionist with very reasonable prices. She is a total eyebrow threading expert -- it is barely uncomfortable and the results really transform your face. As far as for hair, she really takes the time with getting the color just right, and does her best to give you exactly what you want. Can't wait to go back! read more

Kalpana is spectacular! She is a master at coloring, and highlights. The highlights she gave me blended beautifully and gave me the natural look I am going for. I show her a few pics of what I am looking for and she achieves that look to perfection. I highly recommend her. read more

Kalpana did a wonderful job threading my brows. I have been to several threaders in India and in the U.S. and she took great care to make sure she had gotten all the stray hairs. She was also cognizant of my sensitive skin and threaded appropriately. She also uses a thread or style that makes it hurt less! read more

Besides Kalpana being a super sweet, soothing, and pleasant person, she has the magic touch when it comes to both threading eyebrows and cutting hair. I really liked how she was up-front when I asked her opinion on my hair and brows. She told me she wanted to get rid of bulk on the sides of my head, and she helped me pick a sensible style to wear at both my workplace and on weekends. She could tell that my last hair stylist used a buzzer, and she used scissors, carefully clipping and shaping. She also made sure my brows were shaped, and not pencil-thin, when she threaded them. I loved the hot towel she put over my face, and also the way she washed my hair. I recommend her to anyone who wants a star style for what best suits them! read more

I recently purchased the LIfeBooker deal for highlights/ombre/cut which led me to Kalpana at Kapuree. After following up on a voicemail message I left for her, Kalpana returned my call yesterday afternoon (a Sunday) and told me that she could take me that evening. I was so happy, as I know that with the Lifebooker deal, her schedule is crazy! I went in to get the ombre look, but with my pre-existing highlights, she told me that it would require a color correcting process that would take additional time. Since it was a Sunday evening, I didn't think she would be willing to do it, but she was so gracious and said that she would stay to give me the look that I wanted. Sure enough, she worked tirelessly well into the evening to give me the EXACT look that i wanted. She even made it an enjoyable experience by busting out the wine and crackers for what turned out to be a super fun girls' night of gab. Kalpana is incredibly personable and talented. I'm so happy that I found her via LifeBooker. I'm definitely going to become a regular as I can't imagine going elsewhere for a better experience. Believe me...you will not find a more caring, professional and talented hairdresser. Period. read more

I went to Kapuree for a Brazilian Blowout, and she did a wonderful job. She was competent and thorough, even noticing the curliest parts of my hair (like the little tendrils behind my ears) and giving them special attention. My hair is INCREDIBLY smooth and silky now--definitely worth it! read more
