I've been going to Faith Maxxon for my hair since 2020, and I honestly can't imagine trusting anyone else with it. She's the best in the business, and I constantly get asked who does my hair when people love how it turns out. What sets Faith apart is how much she genuinely cares about getting it right. If I'm ever not 100% happy with a color, she always tells me to come back in so she can fix it until I love it. That kind of follow-through is rare. On top of being incredibly talented, she's just a joy to sit and talk to for a few hours. Overall, an amazing experience every single time. Highly recommend! read more

I love Sol Salon! Faith Maxxon has been cutting my hair for years. She is friendly and talented. She always consults with me so I get the haircut I want. And she is so nice that I would pay to hang out with her. After every haircut, I get a compliment from a totally stranger. That's a good haircut. read more

I love my recent hair coloring/style job from Faith. She's so good at covering my greys and keeping my hair healthy. I've been cutting and coloring my own hair since Covid, and needed a change and I've been going to Faith for the past five years now. She listens to you, she make sure you're comfortable with what you're getting and she talks you through every step. I feel so refreshed every 12 weeks. She is the best colorist in the west side. Thank you Faith!! read more

Great experiences here with Faith. Top notch stylist who is easy to talk things over with and have execute what you want. She's done various styles, coloring, etc and all to my upmost satisfaction. My teen son used to see her too. She did great coloring and cuts, really in touch with what teens want. Just a talented stylist on top of being an accessible, flexible person. Give her a try! I also like the Salon itself. Great vibe. Comfortable, convenient, easy parking, flexible times/scheduling read more

I've been going to Faith Maxxon for a few years now and I absolutely love her! I get bored with my hair pretty easily, and she's always willing to help me switch things up and try something new. She listens to what I want, gives great suggestions, and I always leave happy with my hair. Faith is also super friendly, professional, and prompt--which I really appreciate. Sol Salon is always clean, comfortable, and conveniently located right in downtown Culver City. After several years of appointments, I can definitely say she's someone I trust with my hair.

I love Faith and the great service she gives! I always leave the salon feeling great with my new cut and style!!

Always had an amazing experience with Faith! She is a wonderful hair stylist, always worked with me on color and cut, and provides a warm and comfy atmosphere. read more

Faith is the best!! She has been doing my hair for the last 8 years, basically since I moved to LA, and I wouldn't go to anyone else. She always knows exactly what I want and I leave loving my hair every single time. Plus she's so sweet!! I couldn't recommend her enough:) read more

Faith Maxson! The first thing I tell her, is to make me younger and thinner. I always leave her chair feeling beautiful. Not only does my hair look great when I leave the salon, the cut grows out so perfectly that my hair looks great until it's time for another trim. Faith is the best! read more

Sol Salon is hands down the best hair salon I've ever gone to--from the artistry of the stylists' work to the warm community atmosphere cultivated by everyone there. I've been wanting to write this review for a while especially since I first discovered Sol through Yelp. The review I read said something like Grace is amazing with curly hair. I am delighted to share that this is an understatement. I've been going to Grace for the last one and a half years now. During this time, Grace has cut my hair in a variety of styles each of which highlighted my curls so beautifully that I've gotten the most compliments on my hair of my life. I am so grateful to have found Grace! (Also, I do want to mention that during my visits I've seen the other stylists do such beautiful work on people's hair.) Sol Soon really has the most talented team I've encountered. (And I have tried many salons throughout my life, which is common for a curly-haired person, I believe, haha.) Anyway, to conclude this long review, I feel tempted to share stories of all the compliments I've gotten and how gorgeous I've felt since I started getting my hair cut by Grace--but I think my point is better made by just saying the following. A haircut that perfectly complements one's personal style really does wonders for self-esteem. Before going to Sol I would get my hair cut rarely. Now, with how pretty my hair looks on the day of the cut as well as after, getting a haircut has truly become my favorite self care activity. read more

Not only is she one of the kindest people I know but I have always been happy with the results (and I cannot say the same for other places I've been!). She will really listen to want you want and need. My daughter went to see her too and was always thrilled with the results. read more

Faith has been doing my hair for 12years. She always lets me explore what's new and what will be less damaging to my hair. My hair has been in great condition, since I started getting my hair done with her. I've gone from dark to blonde, and dark again.. long hair to short and she always lets me know what will look good. She's the best!!!! Both of my daughter now request to see her for haircuts and soon to be hair colors. Simply the best! read more

Sol Salon - This is after she finished my hair my hair believe it or not with jet black she completely transformed me and I'm extremely happy - Hair Salons Near Me - Culver City, California

So I haven't done anything to my hair except haircuts for nearly 20 years, so I thought it was time for a change. I received this gorgeous balayage from Silvia today. I couldn't be happier. She didn't go too dramatic. Maybe she sensed my nervousness letting go of my virgin hair. She took very good care of me. She explained certain steps when I asked. She gave me a slight trim after the balayage to make sure everything looked good. She gave me recommendations on hair products for at home maintenance. The vibe at Sol Salon is very comfortable and clean. ‍‍‍ read more

Stopped in to enquirer about restyling my hair. The salon busy, but I was asked to set up a time to come back and see Jan. I did, but never heard back. Oh well. The salon is really cool and they sell cute jewelry and accessories. There were homemade pupusas which were delicious. read more

After years of searching for even a good enough fit at a decent price for a curly hair stylist, I started working with Grace at Sol Salon, and I couldn't be happier! I have thick and full, wavy and curly hair - it looks lovely when it's cut properly, and it's heavy, drooping, and overwhelming when it's not. Grace does a great job at trimming my hair every few months to remove the excess weight, but maintain the fullness and vibrancy that my hair is capable of. I'm so grateful to have finally found Grace, and will continue to work with her as long as possible. Not to mention, it's an added perk that there is a free parking lot behind the salon! I would continue working with Grace regardless of the parking situation - which can say a lot for L.A.! - but this removes stress and makes my appointments that much more worth looking forward to. Grace is a delightful and responsive, professional and skilled stylist, and the salon is clean, comfortable, and welcoming - I'm so glad to have found her several years ago. read more

Love Sol Salon. My new favorite hairstylist Angelica is lovely, professional, and styled my hair beautifully. I've gotten many compliments great service vibe n quality. read more

I now have faith in achieving a great bayalage, thanks to Faith! Her technique is meticulous and well worth the 3 hour appointment IMO. I have been here one other time when Vanessa was here but sadly I heard she has gone off to better stylist pastures. Initially my color seemed a bit too dark but after a couple washes I could see the beautiful purple/burgundy hues pop out in the sunlight just in time for Valentine's Day. I feel like a new woman! Thank you! read more

The stylist is so professional love how she did. My hair asked me so many questions to make sure that I felt comfortable with my new cut. I have had so many compliments recently about my hair. I am definitely coming back. read more

Had a great haircut at Sol, I made a last minute appointment which was no problem. I got an amazing haircut and it was a really great deal since I didn't do any color. I will be back! read more

If I give this place anything but 5 stars it will be a huge disservice. I have thick curly hair and have salon hopping for a long time now looking for that someone who can give me more than just a hair trim in layers. I've even been to those 'supposedly' exclusive curly hair salons that cut my pocket more than my hair ! I've been to Sol Salon earlier and never had an unpleasant experience. However this one time I wasn't entirely pleased with my haircut. The first lady who cut my hair asked me to come back if I did not like my hair cut. I took her for her word and I went back first thing next day morning. I met Grace , (also the owner) and told her about my previous evening at the salon. She offered to take care of it for me. Amazing 'Grace' literally and figuratively! She gave me an adorable adorbes cut - that's only bringing compliments my way:) She did not charge me a penny even though she spent another hour cutting my already short hair into this adorbes cut . On the contrary she added some pennies to the parking meter :) If this is not AMAZING customer service , what is ??? read more

Super-chill place. Really good stylists. And great coffee next-door! And parking in the neighborhood is very easy. I recommend Sylvia. read more

Very basic haircut - no frills. Service was fine. I was hoping to leave with a bit more of a salon look & feel for $75. No product or styling & when I asked for any sort of volume help, I was told they didn't have any product available. Nothing overtly wrong, but pretty underwhelming. read more

I love Jan one of the hairdressers there. She's amazing and she's a wonderful human being. I always feel great coming out of there and there's no attitude like there is in Beverly Hills. She has wonderful skills. read more

I've been seeing Faith Maximo at Sol Salon for about two years and not only is she kind and fun, she is consistent and talented.

I went to Sol salon today for the very first time after talking to Grace this morning on the phone and hoping that it would have an opening she made it possible. Grace was friendly and kind, listen to me and checked out the photos I brought to cut my hair in layers. I wanted a cut within beautiful layers to give me more volume. It turned out Wonderful and I will be back for my future hair needs since I trust Grace and feel that she listens to what the client wants as well as adds her suggestions to come to a perfect result. Regarding parking; it is easy either on Washington Boulevard or in the back of store if there's something available plus you can get your coffee next-door at Conservatory and wait if you're early. It is hard Finding a good hair designer /stylist who you can trust and I am happy that I found a good home base now. read more

TL;DR I'm glad that Sylvia prioritized the health of my hair, but I feel like the time and expense wasn't worth the-less-than-stellar outcome. That being said, $240 was a great price for cut + single color+ highlights, so I guess you get what you pay for + I'm glad the outcome was too subtle rather than too dramatic! Overall, I would return to her for a haircut, but not color since she seemed to lack the confidence or maybe didn't want to spend the time initially given I was her last client of the day. I consulted with Christina at Simply Glamour for an appt today, who recommended a balayage for $275 - $300 after seeing my photos, so hopefully I get what I'm looking for after spending so much in total this time! This was my first time dyeing my hair, so I brought plenty of photos, including pics of me with a few shades using a virtual try-on app. I asked to book enough time because I wasn't sure if dyeing my virgin hair would take the amount of time required for a single-process color, balayage, or something else, and what I needed for the look I wanted to achieve. I was happy when I got time with Sylvia as the last client of the day, and was ensured that time wouldn't be a problem. I arrived 10 mins late after giving a heads-up, and she was very understanding of that! The salon looked clean and well kept and I was asked to take my temp and we were both wearing masks the entire time although Sylvia's was falling past her nose a few times; I was the only client in the shop at the time and it was super quiet. I showed her what I wanted, and she expressed concern that since I had healthy hair, I might want to be careful of how light I go in one session to avoid my hair looking brassy (totally made sense to me!), so we went with a temporary color all over--my hair ended up looking the exact same. She said that this is a natural look, it would look more brown in the sun, it was too dark in the salon, and that going with a lighter and more permanent color would lead to harsh roots. At this point, while I appreciated her candor, I wasn't excited about my first-time experience and wasn't sure why Sylvia was discouraging me from the look that I wanted. After I mentioned this wasn't what I wanted, we went with a permanent dye that she said had to stay for 20 mins, she was going to rinse it off in 15, but I asked for longer--only for it to look the same again. 2.5 hours of dyeing, washing, and blowdrying 2x had gone by, so I just wanted to wrap up my appt, but Sylvia wanted to make sure that I was a happy client so we did some face framing baby lights and she did a great job with trimming my hair! I knew we were late into the appt, so didn't have time to do highlights all over and she forgot to do the face framing layers I asked for 2x, but it ended up looking like my hair being essentially the same color all over with a subtle money piece. As a first timer, I think it would've been great if colorists educated their clients on what they were doing through each step (bc I was nervous and my scalp burned after we used permanent color after washing my hair) and how to maintain the color, esp so I can say what kind of processes I've had done at my next salon appt, but I kept having to ask Sylvia about what products were used, how to care, etc. Also, I could have been wearing it incorrectly, but the salon may need capes with better coverage, because the back of my t-shirt was soaked by the end of the appt. I was surprised she rubbed my hair instead of blotting after washes since it's not good for it, but also bc the towel kept getting caught in my earrings when doing that (ouch!). read more

Sol Salon - Haircut by Grace! - Hair Salons Near Me - Culver City, California

Guys. ASHLEY!! From start to finish she was just amazing. she made me feel super comfortable about my change in color and cut, and she taught me how to style it on my own. I showed her a photo of the bob I wanted and she took it from there. She made recommendations that made my cut look even better than I imagined it could. She was also very sweet and funny and we chatted the about early 2000's pop culture and laughed the whole time. Highly recommend, I've never had such a good experience with a stylist as I had with Ashley. Thanks girl!! read more

I can't thank enough to Daniella from Sol Salon for bringing life back to my hair after extensive travels this summer that really damage and dull my hair.

Also, there's free parking in the back. Definitely a nice salon to come and be pampered. Daniella is really talented on coloring and highly recommended.

I was able to get a same-day appointment at Sol Salon. Angelica cut my hair exactly as I wanted. She was also very kind and gave me tips on caring for my curly hair. I'll definitely come back to Angelica! There's also parking in the back, which is a plus. read more

My first visit connected me with Angelica, who performed a small miracle on my hair. I'd been growing it out for the last six months after the worst haircut of my life, which is way too long to go between cuts for my very thick, curly hair. It was a disaster and I was seriously embarrassed about how awful the last cut was. But thanks to Angelica (hope I spelled that correctly) I now have, by far, the best haircut I've ever received. So glad I found her and Sol Salon! read more

I had a great experience! I went in for a layered haircut with a shag vibe to it and I was appointed with Grace. She did an awesome job with asking me questions about what exactly I was looking for. Throughout she was very nice and we had great conversation. I was really excited and happy with my new hair and definitely will be coming back :) thank you for my new hair I love it ! read more

Grace! To the rescue!! I needed a precision cut hairdresser to help me figure out WHAT kinda of cut to get while growing out the prior lame haircut. I was very nervous about booking yet another new hairdresser. I had been caught in haircut hell after the pandemic. My long time hairdresser retired and left me spinning in awful haircuts over and over. I had about given up. I reached out and made the appt based on Grace's reviews here on Yelp. I arrived and Grace was instantly personable and down to earth. She has a great warm vibe at the get go. The parking and haircut pricing were all very good too! Grace understood what I wanted and we worked out a game plan for my ideal style going forward. She got busy with her careful cut- and at the end I'm very happy with my haircut!!! And my new hairdresser!!!! She's a keeper!!!!! read more
