I'm sold! Salon Farouk is the best! Three years ago I moved and lost touch with my previous colorist. I have not been happy with the few stylists I've tried in Redondo Beach and I was desperate to get my hair colored before the holidays. I looked on Yelp and Salon Farouk had really good reviews, so I called and asked for an appointment ASAP. I talked to Farouk himself. He was totally booked but scheduled an appointment for me at closing time for the next day. As I got there for my appointment, his last client was just leaving, with beautiful hair! Farouk really listened when I told him that my light brown hair turns brassy when lightened. I was getting blond highlights, so he counteracted my hair's tendency to turn orange by creating a blend of hair coloring just for me. Farouk was super nice! He's warm and friendly but he is not over the top chatty (thank God! I had a headache!). The salon is relaxed and clean. It didn't take long at all to do my hair- and the hair washing bowls are extra comfortable on sensitive necks. Also, their prices are very reasonable! I am MORE than happy with my hair color! I am totally impressed! No brassiness, no orange, no damage. Just natural looking champagne and sandy colored highlights. I highly recommend Salon Farouk. I have found my new colorist!!! Yay! read more

I used to see Farouk at his first place in the Riviera Village. I would get a shampoo and a cut be out of there within the hour. I got hitched, now we have daughter, and hadn't really made the time to get an appointment in the past. Now, he has moved his place onto PCH in South Redondo, next to Japonica and across from the Beach Cities Bank on Avenue F, which is right around the corner and a 30 second walk from our house (but crossing PCH can take longer depending on the traffic). Street parking is OK, and might suck if it was a busy part of the day or week, but there are lots on both sides of the building. The new place is sweet, spacious, free of big clumps of hair, well air-conditioned (I think the door was open for a bit when I was getting shampooed) and Farouk's stylist's greeted me first, then Farouk did, directing me toward their magazines to wait a few minutes (I was a few minutes late and had r/s this appt when I found out there was a cancellation that day, Saturday). A few minutes later, he came over and shook hands, then got reacquainted and got to the chair and then got busy. THE GREAT THING ABOUT FAROUK (AND THE STAFF THERE): He's paying very close attention to what I'm saying about what I want done on my hair, with an intense concentration. When I finished talking, he kind of summarized what I had said and offered some suggestions, which seemed like they were the same thing I said, but it really was more subtle, different, and better (I believe it was about the sides and how it was going to get cut ). After he said that, I was happy, knowing he understood. Then he could execute the cut, but shampooing was first and Farouk helped me to the sink, where another staff person washed and conditioned my hair. The rest was a breeze like the one coming in from the door that sunny afternoon . I'm sure my styled cut isn't complex or groundbreaking, but I have no problem trusting him to get it done. (He carries a conversation better and easier than anyone holding a sharp object)Looks great, wife loves it and I'll be back. I don't typically yelp immediately after an experience with a business, so I 'm embarrassed to write that I don't know what the cut cost! But I also am better and understanding the difference between quality and cost -- Jim Morrison once said, ""Some of the worst mistakes of my life have been haircuts." I don't think people will feel that way at this place. The people at the Salon make you feel comfortable with friendliness, knowledge and expertise. We have to trust someone to cut it, right? read more

I came to Farouk based on a coworkers recommendation. I've had the same hair stylist for the past 10 years and needed a change. The thought of having someone else do my hair was downright scary. What if they destroy my hair and make me look like a poodle?! Ok, not that bad but I was apprehensive but decided to give it a shot. The salon is bright, clean and inviting. Conveniently located off PCH 10 min from my house is great. Immediately I was put to ease by Farouk, he listened very patiently to my requests and never once made me feel rushed. He definitely takes his time to get it right. My color and cut turned out beautifully. I couldnt ask for anything more! read more

Great first visit to Salon Farouk! Farouk gave a beautiful haircut, followed COVID-protocols (masked, only few customers) and so felt very safe AND is a wonderful, interesting human to speak with during your cut! Very reasonable prices, too. On time, in and out in an hour...highly recommend. Thank you, Farouk. read more

Been white blonde to dark brown without any damage to my hair. He is the master of color and cut! I highly recommend Farouk! I've been going to Farouk for over 10 years! If you like to experiment with cut and color, hands down he is the person to go too! read more

Just finished getting a haircut and Brazilian Blowout with Norma. She did an EXCELLENT job. I've gotten the brazilian done before in other places and none came out like this. She took her time and the results are fantastic. Highly recommend! Thank you Norma ! I will be back read more

I've been to this salon twice now & have had Brazilian blowout treatment with Norma. She does excellent work and is very friendly & professional. My daughter also had her haircut/condition treatment with Tiffany. She was extremely happy with her haircut & the patience Tiffany had with cutting her hair as her hair was very thick & long. We're very happy with how our hair turned out & highly recommend going to this place. We'll certainly come back again. read more

I got a voucher to get a free hair cut & style, deep conditioning, and some highlights too. It was a great deal and my stylist, Lauren, was great. She's not too talkative (sometimes I'm just tired and don't have the energy to maintain a lively conversation) but also isn't too shy. The first haircut she gave me was the best I ever had. My hair fell just the right way and my bangs were just the right length. The second time I got a trim and I think I asked for too much layering, so parts of my hair felt a bit too fluffy later. I'm about to go back again and this time just get a trim without any extra layering! read more

The service is friendly and courteous you get exactly what you ask for with a glass of champagne Farouk has magic hands read more

I'm in Redondo from out of town and didn't like my low lights. Went to Farouk and he made me a beautiful blonde! Great color and service. He and Norma were lovely and fit me in same day. Salon is nice and clean, very professional. Thank you!! read more

Called last minute for a blow out and style and they fit me in immediately, were very kind, $10 cheaper than Dry Bar AND did a great job!

I've been going to Farouk for several years. He is an EXCELLENT colorist and stylist. I have long, jet black hair and now I'm a "natural blonde". My hair is healthy and FABULOUS because Farouk knows exactly what to do. He is a consummate professional. He treats his clients with kindness and respect. If you are in need of a great colorist/stylist I highly recommend Farouk. read more

I have been coming here for about 2 years and have consistently had wonderful experiences! After a couple bad experiences at other salons with poor coloring or chopping my length, I have always been so paranoid to get my hair done. Tiffany is amazing!! She always listens to exactly what I'm asking for and takes time to look at pictures with me for reference. Not to mention, my appt time flies because she is hilarious! Highly recommend. :) read more

Love my hair by Martin with a lil help from Farouk. Martin was so gentle and keen. Love how the color turned out. There was a little chunk of blonde hair on front and Martin fixed it the day after. Service was excellent. I think I found my salon. I'll be going back later for touch up. read more

Norma at Salon Farouk is the best! She takes her time and does such a quality job. She transformed my hair with a Brazilian blowout that lasted for way more than 3 months and I have very very thick and curly hair. I highly recommend her!!!!!! Affordable prices, great customer service and serious quality when it comes to cut, color and Brazilian! read more

I found Christina Chiriani through word of mouth of a family friend and I have been going to her ever since for my highlights and color. Every time I get my hair done by Christina I get the most compliments and requests for who does my hair and can she do theirs. Plus she is what I would like to call a Hair Genius she doesn't let me go unless everything is perfect with my hair and she has become a great friend over the years. I don't know what I would do without her. I highly recomend her to anyone!! read more

I will never stop coming here so long as Tiffany works here! She always takes my ideas and turns them into a better reality then I ever could've imaged. I've even gone to her before with 0 ideas and told her to literally just go with the flow and I've yet to be disappointed with her work. She's patient and really easy to talk to, doesn't just give the generic small talk. She always remembers details about my life when I come back to her as if I am visiting a friend when I see her. This salon is lucky to have such a talented stylist and such genuine person. Even prior to her working here she has taken care of my hair for about 5 years now. We've been through black hair to silver and pink's and blue's in-between. I highly recommend this salon, great environment, great employees - highly recommend you see Tiffany if you come here. read more

I have been a client of Farouk for ten years or more. He is very very good at what he does...both color and cut/styling. He is fair regarding pricing and has a very strong business ethic. He only employees the best people in his salon. He takes pride in his work and his business. I highly recommend anyone who works at Salon Farouk. I will never go to anyone else for my hair needs. He has always been reliable and great. read more

Since Farouk has been cutting and coloring my difficult hair I've gotten lots of compliments...women at my gym ask me where I get my hair done because they love the cut. My hair is not easy... it's very fine and since much of the keratin has disappeared it's wiry in the front and it's curly not in that good beachy way but in a horrid scary way. I wear it straight and chin length, a little shorter in the back than the front. Over time Farouk and I came up with this cut that works for my hair. Usually in early spring I ask him for a Brazilian Blowout which helps it withstand the most humid weather. It's always a pleasure to visit Farouk and his wife Norma. read more

I cant say enough good things about this Salon. I tell everyone I know , To go see Farouk!!! Its been along time since I have walked out of a Salon and said "YES, Finally exactly what I wanted". This Salon really knows how to treat a Client as if you were the most important person to them, Which I find very refreshing. I want everyone to go see Farouk , I dont think you will ever go anywhere else!! read more

Found this Salon off Groupon. Called them directly to book as it's better than going through Groupon for same price. Got a Brazilian blowout from Norma and she did an awesome job. So happy with results. I've been putting it off because i couldn't justify paying $250-300 regular price for something that might not work in my hair. So happy I had this opportunity to try it out! Norma is awesome and a sweetheart!!! read more

Carrie Bradshaw knows good sex, and Lauren Shofner knows good hair! The quality of her work surpasses the price by far. Don't let her youthful good looks fool you - she's got experience AND she's a natural (Ladies, you can't buy good hands. Even if Harvard had a school of cosmetology, that's only nurture. Good hands are a gift from God. Can I get an amen?!). I went to this salon at the last minute. I honestly thought to myself, "I really need a trim and some highlights!" at 5 p.m. on a Wednesday. After quickly reading some Yelp reviews for nearby salons, I headed over, walked-in, and was immediately greeted by the very friendly owner Farouk (ever stood in a salon lobby for 15+ minutes? feeling like an idiot while receptionists in Prada heels that cost twice their rent ignore you? all the while they're trying furiously to look busy? If you haven't, let's just the warm, welcoming feeling that Farouk exudes is hard to come by. (Oh yeah, in case you haven't noticed, class and good customer service are in short supply these days...let's reward the people who still know the value of a smile and a pleasant demeanor. ) I said I didn't have an appointment, but was hoping they could fit me in. Ten minutes later, Lauren was working her magic on my hair (I've waited 3x as long for stylists I actually DID have an appointment with!). I have what I consider "difficult hair", so when someone transforms it, I have to give them a shout out. If you have long hair, or have ever heard, "It's only hair, it'll grow back". and resisted the urge to shave that person's head to make sure they still want to stand by that statement, rest assured, you can leave the Xanax at home when you go see Lauren. And that, my friends, is priceless :) read more

So I got a botched, patchy, orange/yellow balayage a 2 weeks ago and I have been wearing my hair in a bun or ponytail ever since because I was so embarrassed of how my hair looked. That is until today, Tiffany works miracles. She really spends time to talk during the consultation to make sure everybody is on the same page and to assure the desired results. She really listened and heard all of my concerns and hair goals plus is the sweetest! I spent the last few days checking out different salons in my area to see who could color correct my hair only to find it was way out of my budget, most salons charged around $370. I came across Salon Farouk and scored an appointment the next day. When I came in I was warmly greeted and offered water or coffee. She spoke with me and we decided to do a lighter brown instead of going back to my natural color in case I wanted to go lighter in the future. Just a few hours later I got a beautiful color, cut and blowout. It all was within my budget and exceeded my expectations. I usually don't write yelp reviews but I absolutely had to. Finally I can wear my hair down again and feel confident. I will DEFINITELY be returning! Tiffany literally saved my hair and I can't thank her enough. She is so talented. Do yourself and your hair a favor and check out Tiffany and Salon Farouk! read more

I like this guy! I walked in on Tuesday without an appointment a couple of weeks ago for the first time, no problem. Farouk was friendly, asked me questions about how I wore my hair and examined its texture. He is precise and meticulous. Typically it takes a couple of visits to a new stylist before they dial in how I like it, but Farouk got it right the first time. Thanks, Farouk, you rock!! read more

I have been cutting my hair with Farouk since he opened. I love my hair every time I walk out. Great service and great staff.

I bought a voucher for multiple services for an amazing deal. One of the services was a hair cut and deep conditioning treatment. I decided to take a risk with a new stylist and give it a go. I have fine hair but its pretty long. It makes me nervous to let just anybody cut it. I made an appt with Lauren S. She was so sweet, friendly and did an amazing job! The layers she gave me were perfect and added volume to my hair. Yet, she didn't have to remove too much length. It was perfect. I highly recommend this salon and more importantly, this stylist! read more

Have been going to Farouk for quite a while now. He is always friendly and professional and does an great job with my thick curly hair. One time after getting my hair colored, he completely straightened it with a flat iron. It looked A-maz-ing! So I went back some months later for fresh color and to get the Keratin treatment so I could keep my hair looking that great for longer (and less work). I am still receiving compliments about it a week later, from friends, co-workers and even complete strangers, so you know it's good. :) read more

Very relaxed hair venue! The best colorist and stylist as far as hair Natasha Roberto. She is the BEST! Affordable and you leave feeling like a super model! She is kind and takes her time!

She specializes in ombré and blondes! Go to her!!!!!!! read more
