I am beyond happy I found these two ladies! I can't say enough how much I loved them. April and Paulina are two beautiful souls who will hype you up from the moment they arrive till its time for them to leave and they will make you feel beautiful for who you truly are. They are more than just your hair stylist and makeup artist. Loved the way everything turned out from hair to makeup. Can't wait to have you guys again this November!

My trial
Nicole G.

I met Paulina while we were finishing our Bachelor's degree together at Cal State Fullerton. She came to school looking beautiful everyday and I knew that when I got married I wanted her to do my make up. This hair and make up team is fun, friendly and flexible. I was able to book my bridal trial on fairly short notice so that I would be able to have my hair and make up done on the day of my engagement photoshoot. I was happy with the look that I got during the trial and on the day of my wedding I got exactly what I expected. They took their time and made sure each of us was happy with what we had done. My favorite thing is the individual false lashes! Thank you so much, girls!

So I found Paulina & April at the Bride World Expo in Los Angeles in 2014. We first noticed the girls from Le Hair Shack after we ran into my wedding planner who happened to be a few booths down from the girls. Paulina was working her makeup-magic on one of the brides and I was really excited to see a live model of their work. I'd been hesitant on booking hair & makeup from someone online since I feel like you can't always trust their photos to be honest examples of their work. I'd noticed more than a few makeup artists who doctored their photos, and not very well I might add. So when I saw the work that Le Hair Shack was doing in person it blew me away! April had curled the bride's hair and pinned it low to the nape of her neck giving her a very classic and elegant look. And Paulina used all the right shading and colors to bring out such a beautiful glow on the bride's face. Believe me when I say, even though this bride was just testing out the girls and modeling their work, if you put her in a white dress she would have been ready to walk the aisle right then and there. After chatting with the Le Hair Shack girls and checking out some of their before and after photos, I was sold. I booked the girls for a trial session on the day my husband and I were set to take our engagement photos. I pretty much let the girls have free range with my look after telling them the vibe for the photos was a retro-glam style. April left my long hair down in large curls while styling my bangs in an adorable finger wave. Paulina gave me some very glam eyes with perfectly shaped retro-red-lips that I would NEVER have been able to achieve on my own. The look was very different from what I normally do for myself on an every day basis but it's exactly what I wanted in regards to the style of the day. And the whole process that morning was a lot of fun! Both of the girls are sweet beyond words and they make you feel so relaxed! The BIG day came on Nov 1st, 2014 and we booked Le Hair Shack to not only take care of my hair & makeup but also the hair & makeup for 4 of my bridesmaids and my mom! For hair we decided on low curls pinned to one side for the bridesmaids, a pulled back up-do for my mom and a half-up-half-down mass of curls for myself. Makeup varied per girl but the overall looks were soft. Every single one of the girls came out perfectly! And we were definitely a diverse group of girls. My MoH was my best friend who is a light-skinned blonde with green eyes, my cousin is mocha-toned with a full head of tight and unruly curls and two of my other cousins are fair skinned with dark but very thin hair. Paulina and April were able to accentuate the beauty in every one of my girls and they were all beyond ecstatic with the results. As for myself, I was a little nervous since I had gone so dramatic with my trial session I wasn't too sure how my look was gonna come out. I knew I wanted a soft, blush-rose tone to my overall look. I wanted to look as natural as possible since my husband isn't a fan of too much makeup, but it was still my wedding day so I wanted to feel like a dolled up princess! Because who doesn't want to feel like a princess on their wedding day? I was so nervous that I wasn't going to find a happy medium that day, but all my fears were for nothing because the second I looked in the mirror when Paulina and April were done with me I knew I had made the best choice in booking them! My hair was exactly as I showed April in my inspiration photo, and my makeup was the perfect combination of soft and glamorous! Even my husband who prefers me with no makeup and a messy ponytail was very happy with my look that day! And the best part? Both our hair and makeup lasted the whole day! I was so shocked to get to my hotel room that night and find that every eyelash was still perfectly glued and my curls still had most of their shape. It was the best kind of wedding-day-witchcraft! These Le Hair Shack girls are seriously the best at what they do. They listen to you and get an honest feel for what you want. They will give you their professional opinion and guidance without being overly pushy and forcing their own vision on you. They know how to accentuate your best features and will make you feel so comfortable and at ease. I couldn't have been happier with my choice to hire these lovely ladies, they're honestly amazing!

This before and after pic shows the true work of professionals! April and Paulina you ladies did an amazing job!!!

I'm still coming here many years later :)…read more Sammi has become my go-to hair stylist for my hair cutting and dying needs. I love that she can tailor my hair color based on my hair profile and previous history with coloring, so I've been very pleased with how the color always comes out and I usually get compliments after my hair is done. Glad to report her work is still great and pricing is very reasonable many years later! Parking is also super easy in the lot and convenient to get in and out of. It's in a huge shared plaza with places like Trader Joe's if you want to get errands done while you're out here.

Sammi is awesome! I'm so glad I found her and so happy to have her as my hair pro for a decade…read more Unless I move out of state or something, she's stuck with me. If you want coloring, Sammi does amazing work (see pics from the other clients). If you want a really good haircut, make Sammi your person. We were just talking the other day how it's so hard now-a-day to get a great haircut. There's so much that goes into it...I always learn something from Sammi (that's my bonus) When I got a full coloring job done a while back, at least 7 yrs back! when I decided I needed to stop box coloring on my own Sammi was the person who recommended me to "go cool" with my color choice. I had a warm red (like a maroon but more red than brown) anywho, so happy with this cool tone we've been keeping since.

I'm a happy loyal customer since June 2019. It's been almost 2.5 years since I moved to LA from SF…read more I have to say that the quality of hair cut & perm you get here is amazing and consistent every single time which I feel very grateful for. I'm pretty picky about my hair, especially because I'm originally from Japan and I have a different hairstyle expectation that you usually cannot get at a U.S. hair salon. That's been said, if you have a typical Asian guy with hair traits like mine (thick & straight), I highly recommend you give it a try at this hidden gem in Monrovia. I cut my hair every 3-4 weeks, and I get a perm once a 3-4 months at Yumi's place. Yes, you read it right, I get a perm. I know getting men's perm is not common in the U.S, but the truth is it's such an undervalued thing here because permed hair is incredibly easy to manage, which is usually not the case for a typical thick straight Asian guy hair. Additionally, Yumi's place has very low covid risk as it's an individually owned salon, and the only person you meet in person is Yumi. She is very careful about maintaining covid sanitization and I feel safe each time I go there. If you have any questions regarding this review, hit me up and I'll happily answer you from my own experience. Happy 2022!

I've been searching a long time for a stylist who is able to cut and tame my frizzy, wavy, thick…read morehair. And I can finally say that I don't have to look anymore because I found Yumi! I let her take full reign of my hair because I just didn't know what type of style would look good for the type of hair I have along with the shape of my head. But now I can finally feel confident walking out the studio and genuinely say that I love the cut! Yumi is so sweet and awesome. She makes you feel comfortable and has such a great positive energy and I love that! Also, if you ever need or treat yourself to a scalp treatment, she offers it as well. It is uhh-mazing! So relaxing. Trust you have to try.

I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am for Leo at O' Salon. He has always been incredible…read moreto me from the very beginning. He answers the phone almost immediately every time I call, always texts to confirm appointments, and somehow manages to make time for me even when his schedule is completely full. This last visit meant more to me than he probably knows. I had just been laid off from my job and had an important interview the next day. I felt overwhelmed and stressed and knew I needed a haircut to feel even a little more confident going into it. Even though Leo was fully booked for days, he offered to see me two and a half hours after his normal closing time. After a long day of work, he still welcomed me with kindness, patience, and warmth and took incredible care of me without ever making me feel rushed or like an inconvenience. When I went to pay at the end of the appointment, Leo stopped me and told me he was taking care of my haircut because of what I was going through. That moment genuinely brought me to tears. In a time when I was feeling really low, his generosity and compassion meant everything to me. Leo is not only an incredibly talented stylist, but a genuinely good human being. Acts of kindness like this are rare and unforgettable. I will always be thankful for him and could not recommend him more highly.

Absolutely amazing. I always go to Leo for my Japanese straightening treatment. He is extremely…read moremeticulous and ensure there is no damage to my hair. I've have done the Japanese straightening treatments at many different salons and Leo is the best.

Transformation Tuesday…read more Feeling like a new woman! It was a very different experience from any other hair salon that I have been to (trust me, I've been to plenty). Susan Spends time with her clients, she listens, and explains every step of the process. She does not mind being realistic with your hair goals. Her main priority is the integrity of your hair. I am extremely happy with my final Results and Happy to know I finally found my forever hair stylist. Go see her if you're looking for a Honest, trustworthy, and passionate hair master ! You will not be disappointed.

This is a longggg over due review but its never too late.. first and foremost Susan she is…read moreabsolutely amazing at what she does!! She is literally QUEEN OF OMBRE! I kid you not, I did a low maintenance ombre, and after 6-7 months of not doing anything to my hair I still get compliments of how nice my hair looks. Mind you, I go to the gym and wash my hair at least 3-4 times a week and I do very little to take care of my hair, and it still looks BOMB! Susan is professional, passionate, down to earth, easy to get along with and she puts effort in listening to what the client wants and she delivers exactly as expected. If you're looking for a good and reliable stylist to getting your hair done, don't look further, Susan will work her magic on your hair! you won't be disappointed. salon & parking: very clean, modern, chic type of vibe.. they have different season for different stylist. Parking: there's a big parking when you make a right on wheeler ave, you can go through the back door or you can also park in the front on the street which is 2 hours parking.
