I've researched hundreds of LA hair salons on citysearch and i'm so happy i found forme! Honestly, the pricing system is what initially attracted me. The fact that they offer different prices based on experience is terrific. I opted for a level 1 with Deirdre (spell?) because yes, i'm a poor college girl, and the cost of hair in la is ridiculous. A level 1 cut and color was $160.00 and that's the cheapest I found on citysearch (excluding dingy/hole in the wall places). I seriously needed a cut and color and I HATE going to salons where they promise me excellence and I leave with mediocre hair and a huge bill. I was hesitant trying this place out because i didn't want yet another hair disappointment, but i'm so happy i went! The place has great ambiance, high ceilings with simple and modern decor. Deirdre listened to what I wanted, and i can honestly say that the bumble and bumble hair products sell themselves! I NEVER buy products because personally i think it's a waste of money and i never end up using them, but i bought the leave in conditioner and the brilliantine shine/polish <----smells AMAZING. Deirdre keeps a card with the exact formula of color she uses on your hair so she can reference it for the next time, which guarantees you satisfaction every time! I'm very picky about the shade of blonde I want in my hair, as well as the cut because my hair is naturally wavy and difficult to manage sometimes, but deirdre got it dead on. That doesn't mean that I didn't have to communicate what i wanted to her (i think thats the main reason why clients leave unhappy-that or the stylist didn't listen), but deirdre LISTENED. I left smiling and feeling great and the money was definitely well worth it! also parking was easy because they have a lot.
Pros: parking, great products, POLITE hairdressers, AMAZING SHAMPOO GIRL
