my sister lives near here, and whenever my family gathers in LA you can count on seeing my dad (the family yogi) at center for yoga. he's quite an aficionado of yoga studios around the country, and he puts center for yoga in his top 5. i'd give it a higher rating, but i can't speak for it myself - check it out.

They did a spay on my dog who later got very sick from the surgery and later died. Apparently they had tied off her bowels when they did the surgery. She died a long and horrible death as she wasn't able to get rid of any of the waste in her body.. I trusted them and they lied to me. I would never have known about their botched surgery but during my dogs last days, they were closed so I went to another vet and when she died, that vet did the postmortem. He found that they had surgically tied off her bowels. He said that he called them and told them what their surgeon had done and they told him that doctor was no longer there anymore. They lied. The doctor IS still there and doing surgery. They destroyed the file on my dog after the vet board investigated them. They were cited by the vet board for not keeping proper files. BEWARE. They are bad news. Protect your dog - go anywhere else but here.

Crunch is a cool gym. It's a bit pricey for what you get. Lots of trendy people there. Plenty of B/C level actors (90210, Mad TV, Party Monster, Strangers with Candy all represented). Good selection of classes. Some really good instructors. Try Cole's spinning class. Circus Sports is fun, but challenging. Dodgeball is overrated.
It gets a bit crowded. Trainers spend a lot of time chatting with clients. Chatting, not training.
They have no problem using up several machines at once. Plenty of weights, but finding them can be a bit difficult. They're rarely returned to their racks - even by trainers.
Boxing Ring is cool and underused.
It's not rare to find a broken shower or sink everytime you visit. Gym locker is pretty clean.

This is definitely the biggest one I've been to, as it goes back very deeply with 3 different sections. When they have their semi-annual sale, the entire store is on sale and it's glorious. They always have plenty of salespeople wandering around, that are very friendly but won't take no for an answer when they want to measure you (as is normal).

Really incredible at creating interesting but natural looks. They are a little funky yet a little home-ey as well. They claim to have a specialty in "multicultural textures" which is somewhat true; they pay attention to the condition and natural state of your hair in deciding what to do with it. (i.e. dry hair gets this, long asian hair gets that, fine caucasian hair gets somethign else entirely.)

House of Freaks lures you in with their insane sign out front: a huge clown face that glows in the dark of the night. Inside, there are skilled piercers and tattoo artists ready to take on just about any task. I accompanied a friend of mine who had her tongue pierced there, and she said that she had been to other places before, but this one had the most gentle people.

If you don't want to spend a ton of loot on a haircut, but are looking for some more style than fantastic sam's can provide, the buzz stop is for you. All their stylists have a real flair for hair, and they are usually pretty nice to the customers. I haven't been there in a while, because I got this free gift certificate for a haircut somewhere else, and I'm not one of those people who gets their hair cut all the time. but I could conceivably see myself going back there someday.
