I requested an appointment with short notice and they squeezed me in with Michael on a Sunday afternoon. The hair washing alone was amazing! It was probably the best scalp massage I've ever experienced. Michael knew exactly how to style my hair with no instruction from me. He is a real pro! I wish I lived closer, I live in Santa Cruz. Part of me would be willing to fly down to Santa Monica just for Michael to do my hair! read more

Omg!! My new favorite salon in Santa Monica. I moved from Azusa in December, and I am too far to go to my old stylist. I found Panache through Yelp, and I couldn't be happier with my hair!! I went in for a shampoo and styling. I like to get my hair straightened for special occasions, and Margan was fantastic!! She made my hair look so soft, sleek, and stylish. She was so nice and paid attention to how I wanted my hair. When I called, they quoted me at $65+ depending on hair type, length, thickness, and it was $65 without tip. I am definitely bringing in my sister for a haircut and I will be coming back for a haircut soon! read more

I recently went in for highlights, and I couldn't be happier with the results. She perfectly matched the natural color, and they look so natural and vibrant. I highly recommend Panache to anyone looking for an excellent hairstylist who really cares about their clients. Quiet location, easily accessible parking. read more

Margan is an absolutely AMAZING hair colorist!! She truly cares about your hair, takes her time and is meticulous! I was with my old colorist for over 30 years when the vax took him from us and he no longer can work...very sad. I went to someone else until I finally found Margan! What a hidden gem. If only everything in life could be so easy...you find someone amazing at what they do, one less problem to worry about. Also re: the dogs, this salon is blessedly dog friendly...Margan has a sweet, small dog, so does Michael and I am allowed to bring my big (but very friendly) dog in there. If you hate dogs you probably should find a different salon. read more

I went to Panache salon yesterday October 17. 2024. I was very disappointed. I was greeted with DOGS barking at me and everyone in the shop yelling at the dogs. I couldn't hear anyone was saying. I walked inside and smells like an Animal Shelter. I could not hear anyone and no one can hear me. They did not even realize I walked in. They were very unwelcoming. I was glad to leave at peace.

When I first walked in the salon it was like a dream come true. Margan, my stylist, welcomed me with open arms and greeted me. She led me to her cutting station where we discussed what I wanted done today and together we planned out a new hairstyle that would bring life back to my hair. As she started worked on my hair, I noticed myself getting more happy.

Buyer beware. Wow. Drove a half hour for my son's haircut that we booked online a week earlier and our selected, usual stylist, Margan, was not even in that day. Michael rescheduled us for two days later. I called to confirm the appointment for today, and Margan said there was no such appointment on her calendar on either day and to bring proof that I had made an online appointment. Really? Offered $10 off; 'we have overhead'. No thanks. I have overhead too. Plenty of stylists that will show up for a scheduled appointment. Bummed. read more

After 12,000 miles of business travel, let's just say my hair was lookin' rough. I made a last minute appointment with Neena at Panache Coiffure for a wash and blowout before my husband's birthday party. To start: the wash and head massage felt incredible on my scalp. The best part of the entire experience was that she took her time. I never felt rushed. She used all the curlers, the clips, the special blowdrying tricks. And what happened when I asked for a voluminous blowout with some extra hhumphhhh? I got voluminous, sexy, humph-y hair! Hair is so personal, so it was meaningful to me that she actually listened and responded accordingly. I walked out of the salon feeling like a million dollars and had walked in feeling like a can of tuna. Thank you, Panache! read more
