Since moving to LA, I hadn't found a new salon to go to and finding a new hairstylist was honestly stressing me out a bit as I was worried. But I recently went to Samantha for a balayage and a root touch up and I genuinely think I got so lucky finding her first try. She was beyond sweet and so personable, explained exactly what she was doing each step, checked in with me, and just made the whole process super fun and easy. The color turned out SO good, like even better than what I originally wanted. I now don't have to worry about finding a stylist that will do my hair the way I want, she's genuinely so amazing. If you're new to LA like me and need someone to trust with your hair, go see Samantha! read more

I've been going to Daniel for years. He is absolutely amazing. I can honestly sit in his chair blindfolded and give him free rein and always be amazed. I recently came in for a bob with inspo pictures and styled me even better than the photos! He's the only stylist that can make me a beautiful classy blond to a deep brunette in phases. Not only does he do wonderful haircut but he's an expert at color. All while recommending the best products for hair care! Do yourself a favor and book a consultation with Daniel! read more

I went back-and-forth on writing this, but given that it's now been 10 months since the incident, I have to warn others. I spent years growing my hair to be healthy & strong, & I have ended up with fried hair that I have had to slowly nurse back to even halfway health. Come here if you want to be ignored, gaslighted, & end up with completely damaged, ruined hair. I do NOT recommend this salon for Black women / women of color / curly textures. This is long so buckle up. I originally reached out for a simple color service & was referred to Aly. I came in for a consultation and after an hour, she told me to continue texting her ideas so that we could figure the look out together. She then proceeded to mostly ignore me, & when she did respond, she sent photos of basic results nowhere near what we had discussed. Frustrated, I decided to come back in to just get my test strand toned back. She didn't even care to respond, just passed me off to the front desk. When I came back, I was asked if I wanted to consult with another stylist, Daniel, known for being "great with color." I have dark brown hair, & he assured me the cinnamon red look I wanted was achievable. In retrospect, having now lost my long & super healthy hair, still recovering from excessive chemical damage 10 months later, I WISH I had just walked out the door. For context, I had healthy, fine hair in long layers, anywhere from 2A-2C mixed wavy/curly textures, with length about an inch past my bust. I had defined curls, shine, & softness, & barely heat styled. Daniel lightened my hair with a low volume (supposedly) bleach & put a heat lamp on it. The heat lamp was so close to my hair that I moved at one point & it melted the plastic hair cap. After, I noticed my wet hair felt dry & tangled when he was combing, but I was trusting the process. When he started blowing out, my hair was WAY too blond & visibly dry. We had to tone it again. After another toner & cutting layers - 8 hours later - the result was pretty but felt parched, & also was not what we'd discussed color-wise. I was headed out of town the next day, so he promised to tone me when I was back & I trusted him. Fast forward - I shampoo my hair on vacation. My hair is GUMMY, breaking & pulling out in clumps. I can't stop crying. My super healthy hair that I could run my fingers through whirl wet was now inexplicably matted & dry, to the point I couldn't even work shampoo in properly. My curl pattern was DESTROYED. I reached out to Daniel & he put me in touch with the salon owner, saying my hair seemed "healthy" condition when I'd left. When I got back to LA, he did a deep conditioning treatment & a keratin treatment on the house, which helped somewhat. He also cut a few more inches off due to the damage - mind you, we had originally discussed that retaining my length was extremely important to me. He said to come back in 2 weeks for the toner to achieve the final color I'd requested. Traveling again, I got a simple wash & set at a local salon bc at this point, I couldn't even manage my hair on my own anymore on a day-to-day basis. Again, I do not do chemical treatments. The stylist told me I had intense chemical damage & chemically burned hair. I ended up having to cut off more, leaving my hair a little past shoulder length. I reached out to Daniel letting him know about the chemical damage; at this point, he said because I'd gone to another stylist he "couldn't service my hair anymore." He wrote a long text where he falsely asserted my hair was in healthy condition when I'd left & that it'd been too long since the service for him to help. Like...what? I had sent numerous pics & videos of the matting, shedding, gummy clumps of hair to both you & the salon owner & you're going to try & gaslight me? You told me to come back later! For him to try & rewrite history was extremely disappointing, & I lost all respect for him. Given his lack of integrity, I cut my losses, blocked, & decided not to argue about it further. I had to cut my hair a third time into a shoulder length bob. Now, 10 months later, I've been able to grow my hair a few inches with consistent trims, conditioning treatments, & protective styles, but it is still so hard to manage. My curl pattern has not returned to normal. At this point, I am STRONGLY considering a big chop, which was the worst possible scenario IMO. I will have to start over & spend the next few years growing back all the hair I've lost & restoring it to the health that I had before I ever stepped foot in this salon. I have spent 100s of dollars on bond building & reparative products, as well as follow up visits at other salons. On top of that, the immense stress & anxiety of losing my beautiful & healthy hair for what should've been a simple service was extremely, extraordinarily depressing. If you made it this far, do yourself and the health of your hair a huge favor and GO ANYWHERE ELSE. read more

Daniel is absolutely amazing! Not only is he an absolute sweetheart and an awesome person all around but he also truly takes the time to put his focus and care into each one of his clients. It was my very first time with The Hideout Salon and not only was he understanding of any scheduling rearrangements we had to make, he also made sure to make it a point that we would be setting enough time aside for what we would anticipate needing so that when the time came, there would be zero rush along with top quality service which makes a huge difference in customer experience compared to factory booking which sacrifices quality, time, and attentiveness for squeezing in numbers, and as clients we all greatly appreciate this! While I was waiting Allie was very sweet and settled me in/welcomed me and offered me something to drink. The decor of the place felt very cozy and cute. If youre a dog lover you'll also be very happy to probably see a friendly cute Lil doggo named Carl (Karl?) comfortably shimmying his way around the shop (and if youre scared of dogs dont worry, he really just does his own thing Lol). Hes So darn cute and floofy. I came in for both a color and a consultation for a potential cut. Because I sometimes tend to notice/look at details that others may want to gloss over or perceive as me overanalyzing, it felt really difficult for me to explain to others how my recent haircut from another place just a month or two ago had specific lengths and cuts in specific areas going around my whole hair that had left my previous haircut feeling kind of "off" in certain ways and that I felt was giving my hair the very slight illusion of looking shorter than it actually really was and a little "choppy" in some areas, which then had an effect on how it framed my face/widened it instead of helping elongate it. But when I explained it to Daniel, he totally got it and even held up the individual sections that he agreed were causing those effects, why it was creating the effect that it was and how we would resolve it. I was so happy that he not only truly acknowledges and makes it important to understand where his clients are coming from (whether its concerns or goals etc) but that he also has such skill and knowledge to be able to fully do so and hit the nails right on the head. The color was also beautiful as well and because I wanted something that was healthier than permanent that would also give my hair a healthier appearance (ie shine, softness, gloss etc) he recommended the demi and also mentioned that it would make it easier down the road for me to go lighter if I ever wanted to. The color blended and matched so well with the rest of my hair and everything from the cut to the color made me feel like all of my goals were achieved. Everything Daniel did with my hair left me feeling so *Bonita*, and he was just such a joy to work with and an awesome person all around. Thank you Daniel for this lovely experience :) -------------------------------- Parking: Since the salon is in the heart of Downtown, its best to try and arrive a bit earlier than your appointment time and to be prepared for alot of one way streets and quickly turning into the available open public parking lots closeby before passing the salon (to avoid having to go further down in a circle to get back to the parking again). I believe there are 2 or 3 lots before you pull up to the salon that have big signs that say public parking. If youre driving towards the direction of the salon, out of the 3 the first one youll pass is just self-service/pay which was the one I parked in, and the other two have attendants as you pull up to the salon. Im not sure if both of those allow open access to all, so i will find out the next time I go again :) The front of the salon itself can be very easy to miss so just make sure to park before you even pass it on your GPS and youll see a small little sign over a door that says the Hideout salon when you walk up. There will be a door code for you to enter so just ask the salon for the door code in advance so that youre all set to go when you get there as well :) read more

I'm posting late, but this place is amazing, and I'm using them again this year for the LOJ Masquerade in August. Last year, Angela styled and brightened up me natural red. But she also styled two wigs. One night, between the wig and Michelle's makeup magic, I was turned into a Dungeons & Dragons Velma. The stitching might, in the same manner, I was transformed into the Goddess Brigid. Thank you ladies so much. They Eben helped me dress after getting all dolled up. Definitely felt spoiled. read more

I booked with an amazing hair stylist name Daniel Apodacka?! This was before I I attended a Dodgers baseball game and he made my hair look so amazing it had moisture. He used the boars head curling brush. He had his Tri of secret weapons, and he took his time and my hair honestly has never felt or looked this good in my whole life. I highly recommend The Hideout and especially Daniel! read more

Venue: The Hideout is hugely deceptive from the outside, the moment I walked through the door I was genuinely shocked by how large and beautiful the space is. It's a gorgeous setting and the entire team is incredibly warm and welcoming. Service: Daniel Apodaca is an exceptional talent. I went in for a brunette colour correction that took almost five hours, and every single minute was worth it. I trusted his judgement, his suggestions, and his overall vision for my hair, and I'm so glad I did. This is the first time in my life I've walked out of a hair appointment with my expectations truly exceeded. I left The Hideout completely blown away by the results and didn't feel the need to tweak, adjust, or "fix" anything afterward, which is rare. Even the blow-dry/silk press combo lasted a full week. Daniel is kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely lovely to spend time with. I've absolutely found my stylist and will 100% be back. read more

Great experience with Aiden! Amazing job fixing my botched bob. I'll be coming back to book more services with him!

THIS IS A LOVE LETTER TO DANIEL!! Daniel has been doing my hair color and cut for years now and I still remember the first time I went to him. He really took the time to understand what I wanted, went above and beyond to capture it! Just when I thought he's perfected my hair, I'll come in for my next touch up/cut and outdo himself !!! I fall in love more and more each and every time! On top of that he also educates me on my hair and how I can better take care of it. I honestly will not find another hair stylist like Daniel, he has set the standard so high for me. I would follow him everywhere he goes if I could!! read more

I'm absolutely in love with my Brazilian Blowout! This is my second time getting it done with Daniel! My hair has never felt this smooth, shiny, and frizz-free. Daniel Jr does an amazing job explaining the process and making sure my hair stayed healthy. It's been so much easier to style since the treatment, curly or straight! I barely have to use heat now! Definitely worth it if you want sleek, manageable hair that still has movement and body. Highly recommend! ‍ read more

My husband didn't realize men could ALSO go to a salon rather than just be limited to barbers. He's growing out his hair so he wanted to make sure it was styled correctly. He booked with Angela, who turned out to be one of the owners! She was so welcoming to both of us and listened to exactly what he wanted while also giving her professional opinion. The space was beautiful! It was total LA artsy vibes without the Hollywood price tag. We had a wonderful experience and my husband was extremely happy with his cut! He felt like a prince and couldn't believe this was what I experienced every time I got my hair done. He will definitely be going back! read more

I had the most incredible experience with The Hideout Salon for my wedding hair and makeup. My trial was flawless and so much fun, and Angela truly went above and beyond from the very beginning. She guided me through choosing extensions (something I'd never done before!) and worked magic with my thin hair, making it look so full and beautiful. Angela organized the entire getting-ready timeline for me, my family, and my bridesmaids, and she effortlessly pivoted when we needed to adjust for photographers and the weather. My hair and makeup looked perfect for our NYE wedding -- even though I was fully done at noon, danced past 1am, and it was pouring rain. Everything stayed put and looked amazing all night. I couldn't have asked for a better team. The Hideout Salon is simply exceptional. read more

I went to The Hideout in Downtown LA today, and hands down, it was one of the best hair experiences I've ever had. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was amazing stylish, relaxing, and welcoming without feeling pretentious. Daniel, my hairstylist, was absolutely incredible. He did a phenomenal job on my hair color and truly exceeded my expectations. He was extremely attentive, listened carefully to what I wanted, and personalized everything to fit me perfectly. On top of his talent, the conversation was natural, engaging, and made the entire appointment fly by. I genuinely felt comfortable and cared for the whole time. The level of professionalism, personalization, and overall vibe was unmatched. I'll 100% be coming back and will be recommending The Hideout (and Daniel specifically) to anyone looking to get their hair done. 10/10 actually, 100 out of 10. Highly recommend. read more

Just got the best haircut of my life and color that not only matches my shade but enhances it. I never thought my hair could look this good. It's all about the skills of the Queen of Hair, Angela Knox. My hair and I are eternally grateful read more

Daniel is absolutely stellar. After a mishap scheduling wise with another salon through classpass, Daniel squeezed me in and made the appointment happen. He was incredibly sweet and professional, was just such a pleasure to chat with throughout the hair cut. He showed me everything he used on my hair and walked me through maintaining healthy hair with the current products I have at home. I've never been treated so well at a salon and although I don't get my hair done often, I will only return here!!! read more

Hi have been seeing Daniel since he has been doing hair in Chino Hills. I love him so much I have decided to make the drive to LA to stay with him. He takes his time and has a lot of knowledge. I do go from light to dark hair depending on what I'm feeling and my hair has always stayed healthy. On top of that, he creates such a comfortable and welcoming experience. If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your hair, Daniel is amazing. read more

I came into The Hideout Salon in DTLA needing two things: a keratin treatment and an extension removal + reinstall. I was so happy to find a salon that's Great Lengths certified, because that level of training really shows in the results. Bea did a seamless removal (no tugging, no stress on my hair) and gave me hands-down the best keratin treatment i've ever had--my hair looked healthier, felt smoother, and had the perfect amount of shine without looking flat. What impressed me even more was how accommodating and consistent they were: Bea was able to book me back in just three days later for my reinstall, and she even kept the same mapping from my last install--meaning I didn't have to cut my extensions at all. That kind of attention to detail is rare. If you're looking for someone who truly knows what they're doing with extensions and actually cares about maintaining the integrity of your natural hair, I highly recommend The Hideout Salon and Bea. I'll definitely be coming back! Check out my before & afters read more

If I could genuinely leave a 6 Star review I would. I was lucky enough to stumble across this amazing Salon when I was in need of a quick Pick-me-up. And I was absolutely transformed by my new and forever cherished hair stylist Madison Williams, her hospitality and quality in her craft absolutely shows in the results of my haircuts, the salon is very modern, but very boho chic, absolutely a VIBE! Jack,the greeter, is such a sweetheart. Everyone here has made me feel so welcome. I would waste NO time in considering if this place is for you. Thank you Madison for giving me the confidence I've always had inside and allow it to reflect on the outside. You have a client for Life Thank you Hideout Salon! read more

I came to Jacqs after several long months of growing out a bad haircut from a so-called "celebrity stylist," and I honestly couldn't be more thankful to have found her. From the moment I sat in her chair, Jacqs made me feel heard and understood. She didn't just dive in with scissors--she took the time to talk through my vision and explain exactly what she was going to do to get us there. That kind of care and collaboration is rare. Jacqs also stood out for her deep knowledge and training, which she shared so generously. She offered smart, personalized product recommendations to help support the health and style of my hair beyond the cut itself. Most importantly--I love my haircut. It's the best I've felt about my hair in a long time. I left her studio not just looking better, but feeling better. I'm so happy I found Jacqs, and I genuinely can't wait to come back. read more

Daniel Apodaca is an amazing stylist, and my go to pro for the last 12 years! When I found out he moved there was no question that I would follow. He's professional and knowledgeable in all the stages and phases of hair. What I also adore about him is his own style as a person. Funny, honest, and easy to talk to...I've never found another one like him and will follow him anywhere. I live in San Diego and will happily take a trip to see the person I trust! I recommend Daniel, I always get great compliments and most importantly I always feel great with my results. The salon itself has a great vibe and I enjoy my time there. read more

I went to The Hideout Salon for the first time this past weekend and I had an incredible experience! I got a blowout with Stef and she did an amazing job. 11/10, my hair was shiny and bouncy; I got so many compliments and the look lasted all weekend. Stef was really thoughtful and meticulous with her work, making sure that I got the exact look I wanted. I got to chat with both co-owners, Stef and Angela, and they had such warm and friendly energy about them. I will definitely be coming back! If you're in DTLA or just looking for a great hair salon (with beautiful decor!), check out The Hideout. You will love it. read more

I just moved to the city from another state for a job at one of the film studios and I walked in to make an appointment. Mind you I am looking for a new salon and it looked like a nice business. I was quickly not happy with what I saw while I was there. There was a woman with a service animal and the way she was speaking and treating the staff was so inappropriate (I think she was in a managerial position). You should not speak to any human being that way. After this I no longer want to support this business. I wish nothing but the best for the other employees, but any business she is involved in is not a business I want to support. read more

Samantha was amazing!! She was kind and styled my hair just the way i wanted! I recommend her and will be coming back!

I had an appointment with Daniel and I am obsessed with what he did with my hair! I have very thick curly hair and most hairstylists don't know how to work with my hair. Daniel took good care of me and really listened to my needs , he used great treatments on my hair to repair and condition my coarse hair and it feels so soft now and doesn't get as tangled since he worked his magic. He's both skilled at cut and color. I'll be coming back to him for sure. read more
