    Silk press
    Kelsey H.

    Melanie did a WONDERFUL job with my silk press. My hair is natural and not very long but she made it POP! I left feeling like a brand new woman! I am making another appointment ASAP! The treatment & experience was TOP NOTCH. Thank you.

    Full head weave.

    The professionalism & cleanliness! My Stylist Rhonda was the Bomb. Took me on short notice & hooked me up.

    I have read past reviews that caused me to hesitate going to this salon. Haven't had my hair professionally done in a while. I decided I wanted waves. I made an appointment with Rhonda. I've always been partial to short hairstyles. I was pleasantly surprised. She did her thing! I continue to get my hair done every two weeks now. Very satisfied

    Dishonest Stylist will destroy your hair and blame it on you, lie to get your money, and then refuse a refund. Completely unprofessional liar. Run away from this salon!

    I went back to try it again. They are African-American owned as I am African-American female I do need somebody to do my hair. AnyWho one way or another I wound up going back to pure pleasure salon. Ms. Cassandra took care of me. It's quite rare that I walk out the shop looking and feeling this beautiful. My experience was nothing but pleasurable. My hair came out exactly how I wanted it. She worked with me throughout the hairstyle to make sure that it came out correct. Photos will be uploaded.

    Will not be going back! A total waist of money. I first got a bob weave by a lady name Danielle and the weave lasted maybe 3 weeks. For $275 I thought it should have lasted longer then that. I wanted to get it touched up and Danielle was unavailable so I went to Rhonda. She said that she was unable to do anything with it because it was too damaged. She said that she can take it down for $30 and redo it for 275. I was like what the hell why not. Why did I do that a week later I am back to where I was before I went into the shop. 275+275+30= too much money for nothing!!!!!!! Rhonda said do not put anything in your hair and get some Seabreeze to moisturize your scalp and but a scalp scratching comb from Amazon. Followed her directions to a tee and I am still looking crazy!!!!! Never ever ever again

    This was my 2nd trip to Pure Pleaure Salon and again, I was delighted. You heard me, I said delighted! Melanie took her time with me to help me achieve the results I wanted. Whether you want A regular cut or want your hair done for an event or want to try something new, this is the perfect place. I was treated as an individual and welcomed the minute I walked through the door. Not just a hair cut, but Pure Pleasure! Thank you.

    STARR is an amazing hairdresser. When a woman wants her hair done, she wants an experience; she wants to relax, she wants to be pampered and she wants to leave feeling more beautiful than she did when she walked in the door. You get all these vibes with STARR. She's professional, knows Hair, she's kind and has a great listening ear. If you're in the area and you're looking for a quality salon experience, stop by and get STARR STRUCK!!!! The vending machine in the salon is a plus too!

    First impressions are everything - especially if I found you on Yelp! Had such a great experience with Melanie today. She literally took control of a bad hair situation with my niece that came out looking fabulous! She was such a pleasant person, informative and knowledgeable about hair care and upkeep. My niece loves her new hairstyle. Wish I would've taken a before picture, but here is the end result. She's now my niece's permanent hairdresser. Thanks Melanie!

    Natural - to -Permed Pixie Cut by Starr
    Reggina T.

    Starr did a phenomenal job on my hair. I've been natural for 3yrs and wanted something different. I told her the style I wanted; she gave me the pros and cons of what I wanted and could do,then she went to work! She permed,cut, and flat ironed my hair. I was nervous to not get that curly fro look back,but once I washed my hair, my curls were on point! No straight ends,no burns, no dry damaged looking hair. Thank you Starr!! 5 Star IG- @getstarrstruck 323-752-1899

    I'm so happy I found this salon! Upon reading all the positive reviews, I decided to reach out to Melanie for a simple wash & set. She was very accommodating from the beginning, putting me in touch with one of her stylists, Starr. Starr was awesome! Very informative of ways to keep natural hair healthy, the right and wrong combs, etc. will definitely frequent this salon when I'm in la!

    Let me just say that I was looking for a new stylist for my hair , and I came across Pure Pleasure Salon by reviewing reviews. A few names popped up but there was just one specific stylist who stood out from the rest and her name was Starr. My hair has not been done for at least 3 1/2 months so it was a absolute horrible mess. I called in and who answered was Starr!! I told her about my situation she was nothing but professional and understanding and said she will do what she can to help me out. She had a very flexible schedule which really made even more happier bc my previous stylist always had to squeeze me in with 5 other heads before me. And she did not work on certain days of the week so I would have to wait to get my hair done. Starr was patient, accommodating, funny, informative, and extremely nice. My very first time meeting her and letting her do my hair, it felt like I've known her for awhile. She is now my new hair stylist and I can't wait to go back. If you have any questions , comments , or concerns she is attentive and will immediately get back to you and be there when you need her. My finished hair was absolutely beautiful and stunning! If you haven't tried Starr yet , you should bc she does it all!!!

I found Hair by Julianne Cho and was booked with Sumi, and I'm so glad I trusted her! Sumi was incredibly sweet, patient, and attentive throughout the entire appointment. She actually recommended a softer, wavier perm, but I kept insisting I wanted it curlier (lol). She listened to exactly what I wanted while still giving me honest professional advice, which I really appreciated. She also recommended getting a haircut beforehand, and I'm SO glad I listened. I have really thick hair with a lot of density, and she spent about 40 minutes cutting it. She didn't rush at all and was so meticulous. She removed just enough weight while keeping my length, added beautiful long layers, and gave my hair so much more movement and dimension. The perm came out exactly how I was hoping! My hair feels so much lighter, the curls are beautiful, and I'm honestly obsessed with the result. I drove about an hour from the Valley, and it was 100% worth it. Parking was easy, the salon was clean and adorable, and they even had snacks and drinks for clients. Overall such a great experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to make the drive again. Thank you, Sumi!

Jennifer agreed to accommodate me and even stayed after hours to work on me. She assessed my hair and decided what to do (we ended up removing 50% of the extensions -- the previous salon had added too much hair so she could charge me for more hair, which was one of the reasons I ended up looking like I was wearing a wig). Jennifer cut the width of the extensions and replaced them at the most natural position for my head shape, and blended everything together seamlessly. Jennifer, you are amazing!!! Thank you so much. I will definitely be back!

This is my warning to others that are going here to have straightening done. Don't rely on her to tell you it's not right for your hair.

It was my first wavy/curly haircut with specialists and I was lucky enough to meet Anya, who understands curly/wavy hair and the trial and error that comes with it. She asked questions to learn more about what I was looking for, and delivered! My hair has so much volume and personality with a flattering style for my face frame, and it's practical enough for me to work with on busy days. I mentioned some scalp concerns to Anya (who is a scalp specialist!) and was provided with information and possible solutions. So much care was given to cutting and styling my hair, despite being there beyond the offical closing time, yet, she did not rush me. Kiki, who worked with washing my hair and providing me with a blowout, provided explanations to products used and why. I was ready to fall asleep from the massage-like scalp/head cleanse during the shampoo stage. This is the first time I ever talked this much during my time at a salon! I really got to bond over shared interests with both Kiki and Anya. They worked their magic and are supportive, sweet and kind. I think I found a salon where I can transform, blossom and grow with people who genuinely care about their clients and hair.

Not only did they say they can't do anything about it they now charged me 100% of the fee. First they said 50% then they said 100%! They didn't even ask if I want to use the card on file just went ahead and charged 100% I am just disappointed in how they are not understanding of when people can't make due to sickness or some things come up last minute and treating people crappy during pregnancy! Understanding goes a long way when you have a business! Take your business elsewhere where they don't treat returning customers like shit!
