Greater Los Angeles guide
Best Salons in Los Angeles: Top 10
This guide compares ten salons across Greater Los Angeles, from West Hollywood and the West 3rd Street corridor to Hollywood, Mar Vista, Eagle Rock and Woodland Hills. It focuses on the salon visit itself: where each salon is, how broad its menu is, and how it takes bookings.
Every business here has a physical salon you visit. If you would rather have a stylist come to you, see our mobile hairdresser guide instead.

Planning your salon visit
- Parking. Most salons on this list sit on busy commercial streets (Santa Monica Blvd, Beverly Blvd, West 3rd, La Brea, Venice Blvd). Ask about metered parking or a lot when you book and add ten minutes.
- Consultations. Color changes, extensions and smoothing are often booked as a consultation first. Several salons here require one.
- Arrive with clean, dry hair unless told otherwise. Ask whether your stylist prefers hair washed the day before a color appointment.
- Know how to book. Some salons take online bookings, some book only by phone, and some use online booking for part of the team only.
- Cancellation policy. Ask for it before you commit, especially for long color or extension appointments.
Salon or mobile provider?
A salon gives you the full setup: backwash, controlled lighting, and space for longer color or extension appointments. A mobile provider saves travel but depends on what the stylist can bring. For long chemical services, a salon visit is usually simpler. For styling or a quick cut at home, compare our mobile options.
