The salon is beautiful, nicely lit, and blessedly free of the usual desperate energy found elsewhere in the zip code. My colorist understands that I require a very specific, expensive shade of platinum. Not brassy, not gray--just pure luxury. The assistant also gave a phenomenal scalp massage that almost made me forget my upcoming litigation. Yes, the pricing keeps the riff-raff out. As it should. I have already secured my appointments for the rest of the season. Good luck trying to get on their books.

Even after having a consult, the salon couldn't style my hair because they didn't keep products for curly hair on hand. I was asked if I was going through a midlife crisis but not asked about which hair color was going to be put on and definitely nott asked about putting in brass streaks. I look like aunt Glady now

I'd probably book somewhere else…read more I booked a 7:00 PM haircut because it was the only appointment available. The next morning, I received a text asking if I could come in much earlier due to a scheduling change. As a hairstylist myself, I knew exactly what was happening. Someone had canceled, and they were trying to fill a gap in the stylist's schedule. No problem. I rearranged my own day, moved a call, and made it work. What I don't understand is why I was then left waiting for about 20 minutes after I arrived. If you're asking clients to change their schedules to accommodate yours, shouldn't their time be respected too? That immediately put a bad taste in my mouth, especially after learning the reason for the schedule change was a cancellation. I went out of my way to help avoid a gap in the stylist's day, only to end up sitting there waiting anyway. The salon itself is beautiful, and the owner was very nice. However, during the shampoo service, the towels smelled strongly of mildew. Every time one was used, that's all I could smell. As for the haircut, it was fine. Not terrible. Not amazing. Just very mid. For a salon charging well over $200 for a haircut, I expected something that felt a little more special. The weirdest part was checkout. When I went to pay, they told me they weren't charging me because it was "just a trim." I still left a $100 tip, but honestly, it felt less like a complimentary service and more like they knew the experience hadn't gone particularly well. I was also given a candle, which was a nice gesture, but it didn't really change the overall experience. At the end of the day, if you're charging luxury prices, people expect a luxury experience. Between being asked to rearrange my schedule, waiting 20 minutes after doing so, the mildew smelling towels, and a haircut that was ultimately just okay, I don't think the experience matched the price point. Manage your expectations and be prepared to wait, even if the salon asks you to change your appointment time to accommodate them.

Their attention to detail was exceptional - a level I have yet to experience from another hair stylist. I left the salon a much more balanced and natural looking bronde than when I walked in and am extremely grateful.

Perhaps they need to examine themselves as it appears that the universe is mirroring their own energy back... just throwing that possibility out... The salon is clean, quaint and private with a warm and welcoming vibe. From my perspective...who wouldn't want to experience it?! I love the texting option they have, especially since it's busy there 24/7 and I have found that leaving a message and waiting for people to call you back (from most businesses, Ra) is like waiting for someone to return the wallet the stole from you...it's not happening. So they text if they can't answer the phone or if it's after hours...what great service!

He recently joined The Blondery crew a few months ago, and I'm genuinely so proud of him and everything he continues to accomplish! One of the biggest reasons I trust Felipe so much is because my hair is BEYOND healthy. He always gives me the best advice when it comes to maintaining and caring for my hair, and I feel extremely confident trusting him with it. I'm currently blonde and I am OBSESSED with how my hair looks! He really takes his time perfecting your hair, and his pricing absolutely reflects the amount of time, care, knowledge, and work he puts into every appointment. Felipe is also incredibly easy to work with and talk to. He always has such a positive attitude, keeps his work station clean, and is always on time. He's not only talented behind the chair, but he's also a great teacher when it comes to hair he explains things, gives great advice, and genuinely knows his craft. And his BLOWOUTS?! I'm obsessed every single time! I always leave his chair feeling beautiful, confident, and so happy with my hair. I absolutely love Felipe and his work, and after all these years, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a stylist they can truly trust!

He won't do something just because you're willing to pay for it. Instead, he'll offer thoughtful suggestions and guide you toward the best outcome, which I really appreciate. On top of his talent, Phillip is kind, funny, and makes every appointment enjoyable. His work speaks for itself and reflects both his years of experience and his artistic eye. I've recommended him to so many friends and family members over the years, and every single one of them has become a repeat client. I can't recommend Phillip highly enough. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about his clients and consistently delivers beautiful results, he's the one!

I initially came to Larisa with a botched dye job: it cost a fortune to fix, but she did a good job…read morewith what we had to work with. Larisa was a master at making people feel "special". Over the next year, she made me believe that she truly cared about me. There were times I'd walk into the salon and she'd be with a high-level client or have 2-3 other clients in the same time slot as me- and would just leave me in the bowl for upwards of an hour, processing. To do my roots and color refresh on my above-shoulder hair took anywhere from 5-12 hours. She constantly canceled. One time she cancelled right before an expensive headshot session I had, forcing me to reschedule both the hair appointment and the shoot which she then canceled, again. I told her if I rescheduled my shoot a third time, I would be charged by the photographer. She curtly replied "I do my best to accommodate clients". Many times I would come home late after a long day of processing in the salon with my head SNOWING flakes. When I texted her pictures of my concerns she would say it was "your body, not the products". Without answers, I would end up having to scrub my scalp repeatedly to get the dead skin from snowing all over my shoulders and lap constantly, fading my expensive color refresh all because I was left in the bowl with dye on my scalp hours past the max processing time, while she attended to other priorities. The final straw came when I booked an appointment months in advance of my sister's wedding, expressing to Larisa the importance of this event in my life. Down to the wire, Larisa cancelled and then talked me into letting Katrina do my hair. I expressed my doubts and was reassured that Katrina would be able to do my hair just like she did it. When I got to that appointment, the spot Larisa told me I could no longer have was actually the result of her putting a new client in my original time slot. She left the salon early. Katrina, who struggled to figure out the hair color and kept holding up pieces of my hair to say "this breakage is not from me okay?" kept me at the salon until after midnight. I was so delirious that I defeatedly agreed to anything after 12 hours. The next morning I woke up and realized my there were LARGE HOLES throughout my hair. When I wrote Larisa my concerns, she suggested I buy more hair products, later suggesting I pay Katrina for hair extensions. Days later I reluctantly texted Larisa again asking if she thought it was a good idea to do extensions on my hair which was breaking off at mid-shaft. I told her I was having a hard time focusing and that my scalp was burned at my appointment multiple times. 7 days later she asked me what I thought had happened. When I told her it felt like a million tiny beads all over my scalp from the damage, she simply said "I'll have Kat text you to resolve this". Since Larisa was both the salon owner and the one I had the initial appointment with, I told her it wasn't for Katrina to solve when she was the reason my hair was messed up in the first place. Her reply: "Please don't put negative ill feelings on me when all I've done is help you and get you in whenever I possibly could". I apologized for hurting her and once again, she went radio silent. Days later I told her I just wanted to move past any hard feelings, that Katrina would no longer reply to my attempts, and that she had refunded me the price of the service but not my extremely gracious tip. Larisa read all my messages and never responded. I started posting stories about how helpless and ugly I felt, and how abandoned I felt in my darkest hours by people I had considered my heroes. I never named Larisa, and yet Larisa continued to watch every single story I posted, never once clicking out. She then posted a story of her talking about how she was sitting in the salon ALL day with "nothing to do" because she had FOUR CLIENT CANCELLATIONS. She went on to say that she considers every relationship with her clients to be "special", and that it wasn't right that so many of her clients had cancelled on her and left her out of work for the day. Even after having a full day open where she could have replied or fit me in for an appointment so we could FIX MY HAIR BEFORE MY SISTERS WEDDING- she continued to leave me on read. When I realized it was no accident: that she had cost me so much money, abandoned me, and refused ANY accountability to me whatsoever, I blocked her. This journey led me to my colorist of the past four years: she has decades of celebrity clients and long waitlists. And yet, she heard my story, and made space in her schedule to try to salvage my hair before the wedding. She could not believe the price this person was charging or the damage she had done on my hair. Take a look at the before and afters- you won't believe it either. My scalp? Never "snowed" again since. Guess it's just "my body" though. The moral of the story is: never trust a hair influencer.

I have been a client of Larisa's for about 10 years and have always loved her work, which is why…read morethis review is difficult to write. Unfortunately, the quality of her work no longer outweighs the repeated issues I have experienced with scheduling and customer service. Over the years, I have had multiple appointments confirmed only to have them rescheduled because she "forgot" about another commitment she had. Most recently, I requested an appointment and was offered June 19, which I accepted and planned time off work for. The day before, I was told it needed to be rescheduled to June 25. Although I was frustrated, I accepted the new date and let it go. On June 25, I took half a day off work, drove an hour to the salon, and arrived 20 minutes early for my appointment, only to find the salon locked. When I texted, I was told she had forgotten to add me to her schedule and that we would need to reschedule again. She apologized and refunded my deposit, but her only solution was to reschedule despite the fact that rescheduling meant waiting several more weeks. I understand that mistakes happen, but this was incredibly disrespectful of my time, especially given the repeated scheduling issues I have experienced over the years. What made this even more frustrating is that Larisa has publicly spoken on social media about how upsetting it is when clients are late or fail to show up for appointments because it costs her time and money. Those feelings are completely valid, and she has every right to enforce policies that protect her business. However, I found it difficult to reconcile those messages with my own experience as a long-time client. Respect for time should go both ways. Clients also take time off work, spend money on gas, rearrange their schedules, and lose income when appointments are repeatedly rescheduled or, in my case, forgotten altogether. I have been loyal, to a fault, to Larisa and her work for over a decade. I supported her before she opened her own salon, have spent thousands of dollars on services, left positive reviews, and have recommended many people to her over the years because I truly believed in her talent. It is disheartening to say that I can no longer recommend her. Larisa is undeniably talented, but reliability and professionalism are also part of the service clients pay for. After giving this a great deal of thought, I no longer have confidence in the scheduling process or trust that my appointments will be honored. For me, that trust has been lost. Los Angeles is filled with incredibly talented hairstylists who not only produce beautiful work but also value their clients' time and have scheduling systems they can rely on. If you are considering booking with Larisa, I would encourage you to do so only if you have a very flexible schedule and are comfortable with the possibility of last-minute changes. I genuinely wish Larisa the best, but after 10 years as a loyal client, I can no longer support a business where I do not feel my time is respected.

As soon as I stepped inside, I was warmly greeted and offered some iced green tea, yum! The salon was bright and airy and surrounded by plenty of thriving indoor plants, it was like a rainforest inside! Being indecisive about whether I wanted to stay light for summer or go back to the dark side, Crystal helped me decide what direction I wanted to go in. Balayage highlights and a couple inches cut off was the game plan! Crystal is so down to earth and it was really fun chatting with her while she did my hair. She also explained to me how the salon is part of Green Circle Salons, meaning the salon recycles & repurposes everything from hair, foils, colour-tubes, papers and plastics, glass, spa waste AND diverts excess hair chemicals from being rinsed down the drain. Not to mention the plants inside the salon serve a purpose aside from looking pretty- they cleanse the air of hair chemical impurities like ammonia! So yeah, if all that isn't reason enough to pay Loft 647 a visit, at least go for their selfie station!
