About the salon
Small shop. Honest work. Figueroa Street.
Maria started the salon after six years working the floor at another local shop. She built something she wanted to work in: a 6-chair, 3-stylist space that runs mostly by appointment, with walk-ins welcome when the chairs are open. Small and warm, not chain-y at all.
What customers say: Maria listens. The stylists explain what they're doing the whole time. Prices are honest — no surprise upsell after you sit down. Gray blending done exactly how you wanted. Curly hair treated with actual care. That's the practice.
Hours: Tuesday through Saturday, 10am to 7pm. Closed Sunday and Monday. We take cash, Zelle, and all major cards.
