Hair Designers Studio - Santa Monica (CA)

Mya Stoessel I cant praise my hair stylist enough! Shes not only incredibly sweet but also incredibly talented. I recently transitioned from dark blue to light pink, and the result is beyond amazing. My hair feels soft and healthy, a true testament to her skill and care. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a fantastic stylist!

Marc Israel I walked into this zoo for humans in need of haircuts, having never been there before. I was greeted very warmly by Toni, a barbress, who was cutting the hair of a female of some advanced age. Meanwhile I was offered a beverage by another employee during my wait - believe it or not I was given a cold bottle of Rolling Rock. Nice. After not too long, Toni was ready for me. She couldn’t have been more friendly, - “a doll” as a previous reviewer put it - and was very curious wanting to know exactly how I’d like to get my hairs cut, wanting to please and help her customer. This was lucky for me as I am very PARTICULAR and have/had very unruly, thick, long hair and wanted a certain kind of layered look for which I came prepared with pics and a big pile of adjectives. Toni drank in all the info, and UNDERSTOOD it where so many barbers in the past have not, and, well, long story short, she gave me one of the best haircuts I’ve had in many moons. Price for a man’s haircut? $38. Might not be the very cheapest, but for this area of LA, it just might be! I highly recommend this place!

Sarah Stepien Carolann does AMAZING color and cut! She is absolute perfection and would recommend her to anyone! She actually does more male haircuts, but Ive been going to her for over 15 years and shes amazing everytime!

Tracy McGeagh Fiona is a master at everything hair - from color to highlights to cut to blow dry. She transformed my color after Madison Reed (the color bar) ruined it - she is also incredibly fast and finishes blow drys in 30-45 minutes and cut and color in 1.5 hours - I highly recommend Fiona of Blow Hair Dry Plus!

Joshua Townshend Sara is - AMAZING. Anything she does - touches - puts her awareness on - turns to pure gold. She has such impeccable intent - you can FEEL it when you walk into her space just off Montana in a lovely part of Santa Monica. While early in my process - I feel that we are on the right track with my hair growth process. A lot of people might have the TED machine - but no one has the heart and the passion and the integrity that Sara has. Looking forward to more progress. More updates to come

Jennifer Tabiza Nicole is the best! And they use top of the line organic non toxic products only! And if u have a dog they are welcome.

Tatiana Froehlich I had an amazing first experience here! I have type 3 curls, and it was my first time getting a haircut from a curly hair specialist. Madison is the stylist who I was assigned to, and she did a phenomenal job handling all my questions, teaching me all about curls, and about how to care for and style them. She also listened to my vision extremely well, while recommending certain shifts based on her knowledge & experience of curl type and face shape etc. I feel that she executed on the vision we agreed on extremely well, and also trimmed a little extra after styling after I asked for a tweak. The overall salon feel was very positive overall as well. Good vibes from everyone I interacted with. Highly recommend. It felt very worth the price!

amanda irwin I have a TON of hair and have walked into salons that have taken 6 hours to do a full head of high lights, making a terribly daunting task to do my hair. Kendra over at Daidone not only did the best job out of everyone I’ve ever gone too, but also did it in 2 hours. Best work I’ve ever gotten in a very timely manner; you can tell she is beyond experienced. She will be my girl from now on forever!

Jennifer Jabara Robbie is the absolute best! He cuts my entire family’s hair and is especially skilled at bringing out the best shape for wavy/curly hair. Sebastian, Wayne… the whole crew there are awesome!

Isabel VA Got my hair colored by Herminia and Emmanuel at this salon last week and it was such an amazing experience! Everyone was so welcoming and kind. When you get color done it can be a lengthy process, but the time honestly flew by! Im absolutely OBSESSED with the results. My hair texture wasnt compromised which was important to me! They both were very knowledgeable on all the products and were very helpful with all my questions as well. I included some pics:)
