nicest lady I've ever met thank you so much for the haircut sincerely Landon and Isaiah read more

I come once a year for a no frills, straight cut. I often go without an appointment and can be accommodated quickly. June is lovely and warm, and the haircut is comfortable and fast. A haircut is $20 cash only, and parking is free. After the cut, she will offer to French braid your hair! read more

It's a 20 minute haircut, so have your expectations properly aligned. Pros: clean salon, friendly staff, price ($20) Cons: not good if you want anything besides a simple haircut (think straight cut, no layers) read more

I need a haircut ASAP and I called this place since it's only quarter of a mile away from me. June was very accommodating and she's really good. Will definitely have her cut my hair regularly! read more

After I moved to West LA, I have been in search for an affordable, no frills hair salon similar to the mom/pop shops in East LA vs SGV. (Background: I don't style my hair and wear it up 365 days of the year due to my job and preference.) This hair salon is the closest I have encountered to that, and I am so happy to have found it. (If you are looking for anything more, you may want to explore elsewhere.) The opening hours are quite generous, and the price cannot be beat for LA. I just needed my annual hair cut, and June cut my hair quickly and added very subtle side bangs as well, for a fresh look. She went a bit shorter than I had initially wanted, but it still looked cute. No hair wash, no hair drying or styling, no extra frills, which was exactly what I needed and what you should expect if you come here. The shop itself is extremely spotless and odor-free (some salons I feel have that musty or chemical smell). She also cuts kids hair too. June is also the nicest, sweetest person ever. We got to chatting, and she says that she has been cutting hair at Waves for 25 years now. Can't wait to come back next year! ;) Pro tip: cash only. Prices: 20$ each cut (men or women). Parking: free lot. My annual hair cut was $25 including tip! read more

Cute and friendly place for a cut and wash. I am a new mother to a 5 month old boy and I'd been having difficulty being 'human' shall we say. I walked into this salon and I met Miss June, I've never seen such kindness in a hair salon before. Not only was she gentle and caring but vibrant. At the end of my cut and wash she even kindly braided my hair for me so my son wouldn't pull on it. Please support this business, I will being bringing my family and coming here in the near future. Thank You! read more

She did a wonderful job cutting my son's hair. Very friendly and welcoming, the prices are fantastic. Clean salon, plenty of easy parking out front, we will be back! read more

Great reliable cuts! Jun is amazing. I am always happy with the cut she gives me. I finally convinced my husband to go to her as well. Her cuts are consistently good. read more

Waves was not a nice experience at all. Absolutely rude on the phone - I highly recommend staying alway from this place.

The lady's really nice and you can tell she's had experience as a hairstylist. She got exactly what I wanted for my hair. They only accept cash, but the price is really a good deal for a haircut. The salon is pretty decorated too. Although they should change their closing time on yelp and google. I got off work early one day, and I went straight to this salon, it was already closed by 4:30 pm. read more

I've been going to this lady for years because of my grandma--she's known me since I was young and has always been sweet and professional whenever I came in. I usually walk in, so I understand sometimes I have to wait, and that was never an issue. I've even recommended friends to her over the years, but I've started noticing that the experience you get seems to depend on your skin color. Unfortunately, that pattern really showed itself during my most recent visit. I came in around 10:22 AM with my Hispanic friend, and as soon as we approached, she told us she was busy, locked the door, and turned off the lights. It felt really intentional--and honestly, racist. I've never been treated like that when I came alone. It's incredibly disappointing. read more

For people like me who just need a simple trim-- can't beat this place! June is quick and does a good job. I keep my hair long, with long layers, so it's great to come here to freshen up my locks without having to shell out $100. Will come back! read more

A late review but I started going here in 2018. What I thought would be a quick and mediocre hair salon turned out to be my go-to throughout my 2 year stay in LA. The owner is the sweetest, most thoughtful human being and will always make you feel welcome. I would go out of my way to get my haircut here religiously every 2 weeks and would always be greeted with the same smile and heartwarming conversations. I'm glad to see that this place is still around, and that speaks volumes to the quality of the business and the respect customers have for this local salon. Please pay this business a visit if you can! If I were to move back to LA, I would go back here in a heartbeat. read more

What a great experience. I was walking by and saw that it was open. It was about 20 minutes before closing but Jun made sure that I felt welcomed as a first timer. The place was exceptionally clean as she wiped down everything before cutting my hair. I only needed to get two inches trimmed and she did it perfectly. And to top it off she even braided my hair too. She was so kind and made me feel comfortable during the whole time. I'm very glad that I stumbled upon this place. Professional and affordable. I definitely would come back again! read more

Joon (sp?) was great! I was a walk-in. I didn't want too much cut since I'm trying to grow my hair out

Awesome haircut from June! I have curly hair and she dry cut it so I didn't fully appreciate the cut until my next wash day. She gave me awesome layers so my curls are springy and defined. Highly recommend! read more

First trip there for my 3 year old son to get a haircut and it was great. No appointment needed, we just walked right in. June was quick, professional, offered him a prize and made him super comfortable. We'll be back. read more

JUNE was amazing, super sweet, she definitely made me feel comfortable. As soon as you walk in she takes your temperature, and sanitized your hands. I was in much need of a trim and she took care of it for me!! read more

I've never had a go-to hair salon -- until now. The shampoo & haircut I got here was top-notch! My hair is a little weird (or maybe it's my head) in that I usually have hair sticking out in odd protrusions if I get my hair cut shorter than shoulder length. This time, I don't know what Jun did, but my hair sits perfectly framing my face! And the price was very very reasonable for shampoo, haircut & blow dry. I highly recommend Jun at Waves Salon on Jefferson x Slauson in Culver City! Oh & btw, a Total Wine & More just opened very nearby & there's a Honey Baked Ham, Winchell's Donuts & a Big Lots nearby too, so you can get a LOT done in one trip.... read more

Lovely shop owner. Does a good job for the price of the hair cut. Will be going again

June is fabulous! Kind, talented, so good natured. My mom has Alzheimer's and she is so wonderfully kind and patient with her! My mom always feels like a million bucks when she leaves Waves! read more

I love Waves! It was difficult to find a good place in LA but now I've been seeing Lia at Waves for the past 5 years. Always the best haircuts and very friendly group of women who work in the salon :) read more

Friendly, welcoming, very reasonable prices! Walk ins are usually taken right away or with minimal wait! She is great for all ages! She is great with children to seniors! Our kids have grown up with her and now bring grandkids!! She treats you like family!! read more

Jum is so sweet and her prices are a great deal. Ive been getting my hair trimmed here for 5 years. It's simple: this place is a neighborhood gem. read more

I was at the Fox hills mall shopping and was in need of a haircut. I yelped nearby hair salons and got the chance to call and asked how much a haircut would cost and it was only 15$ ! And right away drove there with my 18 month old and had a very pleasant and quick experience! The nice lady was welcoming and patient with us. Thank you so much! Will be coming back forever now :) read more

First time coming and wont be the last. The price for a haircut was CHEAP and a damn good job at that. It took only 15-20min which got me back to work on time. The place is very clean and the owner was beyond sweet. She catered to me in the sense that I was sick and gave me a cup of Joe and a lemon to go. read more

Great haircut! Very nice barber! I'll be back for sure. The major thing to note is they only take cash. I had to get cash back at the Dollar Tree next door. The place had a ocean paradise vibe to it. The haircut was also cheap compared to the Supercuts I used to go to. It was 16 dollars compared to 25 at Supercuts. I recommend this place for sure. read more

After reading the reviews I decided to stop and get my hair cut here and I'm so glad I did! As soon as I stepped through the door I was greeted by "mama" June! She is so incredibly sweet, kind, and honest. She did a phenomenal job of cutting my hair, after years of dying it, I have been trying to grow it out and it's looked so dry and brittle. After my haircut my hair looks refreshed, she even gave me after care instructions to keep it healthy. I'm looking forward to coming back and seeing her. My haircut only cost $15!!! I'm still in shock at how great of an experience this was. I would highly recommend going to see mama June for your hair needs! read more

I'm obsessed with June (Jun? I'm not sure of the spelling, sorry!!) She always tells me how beautiful my hair is, cuts it exactly how it should for it to continue growing, and charges me extremely reasonable rates and always braids it no extra charge. She seats me for walk ins almost immediately and I'm out within 15 minutes. Truly incredible stylist! Tip her well! read more

Jun does a great job. She was great at understanding what I wanted even though it was the first time working with me. She's friendly, personable, and is good at what she does--she's precise and has a good eye and attention to detail. I am always a little hesitant to try new hair cutting places but I will definitely be back here. Only $15 for a quality cut? I'm sold! read more

Great haircut, great experience, great person. I love Jum!! I was in the area from San Francisco and needed a haircut. I walked into Waves and it was such a nice relaxed comfortable environment, especially when I saw her little doggie Rocky! Jum had me laughing the moment I walked in. Haircut was great and less then 1/3 of the price I pay for a haircut in San Francisco. Looking and feeling great with my new dooooo read more

Waves Hair Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Culver City, California

Very odd experience. Called to make an appointment, woman said no need to make one. Then called again to tell her I am coming with my two kids, she said she was too busy. Then I called another time, no answer. Showed up anyway with my kids and woman was working but would not cut my kids' hair because she was too nervous to. Left and went to Fantastic Sam's which was a much more welcoming atmosphere. read more

Nice shop my son gets his haircut here monthly. The owner is so nice and listens to how we want the style.

I noticed right when I walked in the salon was very clean, relaxing, and not to busy. I have loose curls and was unsure if this was a salon for me. The owner June has such a lovely personality. She cut my hair she did such a great job with my pixi cut. I will definitely come back. The price is very affordable, at $15 a women's hair cut. There is also a free parking lot. read more

If you are looking for a quick trim this is the place. This isn't a fancy pants place so no frills here, just a humble cool place to get a cut. 1st time visit and got a shampoo and a haircut. June took care of me! She was the sweetest lady ever, I felt like I knew her forever. The only thing is that they don't accept credit cards, only cash or check. She told me I can come back to pay her??! Who does that...? She was soo trustworthy, of course I came back after a quick trip to the bank nearby. Defiantly will come back! read more

This is my new salon. I have LONG thick wavy hair and June made me look absolutely gorgeous and it was 1/3 the price I have been paying. She is so sweet and nice and I just love my hair! Any stylist who can make me love you hair again gets my business! I will come back again and tell all of my friends. I think she wanted $13, but I gave her $15 because I usually have to pay $45 and up for my long thick hair elsewhere. She has such a gentle touch, too. And believe me, my hair was tangled from the wind when I went in. Superb layered hairstyle, even the bangs. She created this perfect framing of my face and understands face shapes as they relate to hairstyles. Fantastic! NO CREDIT CARDS. Plenty of parking. Convenient corner of Jefferson at Slauson. Dollar Tree is located nearby, too. read more

My new spot for trims! She is so sweet and knows what she is doing! I told her i wanted to grow out my short hair and that i just wanted to trim the bottom hair forming a brady bunch type mullet. It was like she read my mind by not even touching the top which is what i wanted. Will come here from now on!! Plus its under $20! read more
