I have been driving down from Ojai, CA to have my haircut by Victor for a little over two years. I guess you could say I'm hooked. It is a bit of a hassle to make a whole day's drive for a haircut! but it is worth it. I have tried other local stylists and I just can't seem to establish the rapport that is needed to fully TRUST someone with my hair. But I do trust Victor. He has found his place in the sun. He was meant to cut hair. He loves it and it shows. He listens. He is honest. He is talented, skillful, knowledgeable, and has a great outlook on life. I'd always wanted to let my hair grow long but it seems like I have spent years recovering from decent to outright bad haircuts! With Victor, my short-to-long hair transformation looked fabulous every step of the way. My haircuts hold their style for months and when it is time for a touch up Victor always seems to know just what to do to keep my hair looking great. I trust him with my hair and you will too!
Pros: One-on-one attention with a master!
Cons: no receptionist but usually calls back quickly for appointments

This store is across the street from our office but I know many who travel far to come here and they say its their favorite book store in LA. This is not a barnes and noble or borders. Its small, intimate, edited, and feels like a place of the past. Good art section and intl magazines. Written from my cell phone.

9022 Salon is nestled behind a Japanese style wooden fence with a Koi pond full of fish and an energy that is not typically found in Los Angeles, especially on Sunset Boulevard just East of Doheny Drive. There you see Arch, who has the chair by the window and is always busy with client after client because he is extremely talented and comes with no B.S., this guy will give you an amazing cut time after time and he will be honest with you as to what will flatter your face and grow out well, the rest of the crew is talented as well, but I have to let you know about Arch, this guy comes from three generations of cutting hair and he brings you the very best there is in Los Angeles at price points that are not over the top, it is a win win for you, your going to look great, feel great and wonder why you never had a haircut like this before, now is the time to start, if you can manage to get an appointment, good thing is, Arch works long hours and loves what he does and is as accommodating as he can be.
Arch at 9022 Salon on Sunset Boulevard is something you need to know about. Everyone tells me how good I look, the way my hair is cut so nice, how I look so good, hey, I'll keep taking the compliments and keep getting the great haircuts from this guy and I hope you find the time to do so as well.
Cheers to all.
Pros: Highly skilled employees without the attitude

Everything you will ever need is at Bird. Everything is hand selected with care: you will not find garbage style here. The prices are a bit steep, but when you are surrounded by complete class and know that no matter what you buy will look good, it is worth it. I love the sophisticated feel of this boutique. Everyone should know about this jem.

If I were anymore in love with this place, we would be engaged. I know it says they work by appointments, but the girl was super helpful when I literally walked in. After a yummy brunch up the street at La conversation-talk about get two birds with one stone-breakfast and wedding advice in one trip? Perfect! I got a whole lot of goodies and free magazines and leads on tons of different people and I am obsessed with an invite studio I discovered there. This is every bride's best friend.
Pros: Free, informative, champagne!

The Bodhi Tree Bookstore has been offering usual books for two generations now and probably will continue for many more. The store is a wonderful experience, even if you aren't into the type of literature offered there. The atmosphere of incense and tea and white linen wraps is evident from the minute you look in the door. The books are new and feature authors and titles that are difficult to find in any other bookstore in town. Most titles can't be found south of San Francisco and west of Taos, New Mexico! The parking during the week is tough, tough, tough. Try for Saturday parking to save your sanity. The Bodhi Tree also has evening hours, and parking is much easier during these times. The bookstore also hosts lectures, demonstrations and book signings. Highest recommendations.

I love this store - I could spend weeks there! I've brought my laptop there to hang out in the cafe and do some work (my favorite drink is the Cafe Vienna) and the staff is always friendly. The manager, Cheryl Mcloughlin always remembers me when I go in, hehe :) And I like it because you don't feel dirty when you go in there?.they're so open! AND they have free underground parking, which is a lifesaver. If you hang out in Hollywood, you know what I'm talking about! I've gotten a bunch of presents for friends there, and they always love them.
FYI: They're having a July FREEDOM SALE, if you've seen the ad in LA Weekly. I'll probably head over there soon and check it out; they have the cutest clothes and I wouldn't mind a nice 15% discount! I love their PJs and bras, especially. And everything is mix-and-matchable! A+++!
Pros: Easy parking and short lines!

I was having a photo shoot coming up and needed to be smooth I was sent to Igor's by my agent and found it to be perfect. I have never had waxing of any kind before but kept myself trimed and shaved. Waxing a find to be much better because it does not grow back the very next day. And since my shoot was about three days long in diff. locations this was perfect. no touch ups needed by the razor. I have gone back three other times and love being smooth and clean. It looks natural and no one can tell. while I was there he cleaned up my ears and by neck line with out being asked. I have never even thought about my ears before but when he showed me the xx long hair growing from the top of one I knew I better start paying more attention. Rene is the owner and he is awsome and the other guys there are really great too.
Pros: Great Service, Roof Deck waiting room, Very Private, Secret Location
Cons: Valet Parking Only or Street Parking no Parking Lot. " No Walk Ins"
