Athena is so welcoming and lovely!! I got a qiqi treatment for my frizzy hair and it's never been this smooth and clean. Love it and will probably be back for a hair trim or color next time:)

Athena's Gallery is pure luxury. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Everything is perfect- the stylists, the appliances, the vibe. My hair has never looked better! I'm obsessed

I've never gotten my hair done so quickly than at Athena Gallery. I have long, Black curly hair and Athena will wash, blow dry and straighten my hair in an hour and a half every time. She's truly magical and she'll always make you feel beautiful from beginning to end. Her staff is super accommodating and will always make sure you have coffee, water, etc. She's so good my mother even made me schedule an appointment when she was in town! This is truly one of the best salons you'll ever go to in LA!

Literally brought my hair back to life!! I'm not really the type of person to concentrate on my hair but I needed a new look. I told Athena and Dekel to do what they had to do and they did not disappoint. I've been getting so many compliments that helped boost my self esteem. They have great hospitality and such a feel good energy. I felt so welcomed and it didn't just feel like an ordinary salon where people are just working it felt like I was l hanging out with friends. They take their time to make sure it is perfect and explain what is being done which I really appreciated.

Friends this is your sign to come to this shop!! You will not leave that chair disappointed! The studio is cutely tucked away up some stairs; when you enter you're instantly relaxed and welcomed. I've loved working with Sylvia! She goes above and beyond every time to ensure I'm happy with my results. Sitting in the chair with her has become an experience I look forward to every couple of weeks! She took me to my red head dreams that I've gotten so many compliments on. She is seriously talented, professional, and the sweetest! I'm so happy to have found my go to salon. Thanks to Dekel and Sylvia !!

I've been going to Athena Gallery for a little over a year now and I don't trust anyone else with my hair. I have really curly hair and luckily everyone at the salon has experience with all different hair types/textures. I recommend Athena Gallery to everyone in LA. The place is stunning and Athena has hired amazing staff. My hair is healthier than it's ever been and I always leave feeling my best!

Athena is the best! So professional and makes my hair feel so healthy. Came in for a trim and a wash by Cameron (which was the best)

Came in with no reference photo and hair that was basically a Karen styled bob and Melvin still did…read moreme right. I was looking for a barber that knows how to cut Asian hair and I found exactly that. He's an absolute master with scissors and knows exactly how to work with the type of hair you have. He recommended some product that's more specific to my hair type and buying it at their store was $10 cheaper than buying it online. Great place with great barbers, I'll definitely be coming back once I need another cut!

Let me just start by saying that Hin has some skill in cutting hair. I could tell by his scissor…read morework. But when he asked me what hair cut I wanted and showed him a picture of a burst fade Mohawk and he proceeded to ask have you had this haircut before. Then I showed him a picture of me with the haircut I wanted (which was a burst fade Mohawk) and he proceeded to say "is that really you". This was at the beginning of the hair cut. Mid way he asked a second time if I had ever had this hair cut before which I answered yes. Also at the beginning he had mentioned how much are we taking off the top. I mentioned just a little bit and we can work our way down. When it came to cutting the top I feel he had gone too low. At that point I just wanted to get out of the chair. I waited 2 days to post this just to see if my hair needed to settle in since I went from a wild lions mane to what ever this short hair cut I have now. But no matter how much I attempt to style my hair it just looks dumb. My feedback to Hin is if you aren't confident in cutting someone's hair then please just say so. Or if your specialty is clean cuts then tell your client so they can make the decision of sitting in the chair. I may come back to try with someone else to cut my hair since I feel the people here have some skill.

I had an excellent experience at Theodora and would highly recommend this salon…read more Derek did an amazing job with my hair, and both he and his assistant, Kaylee, were professional, attentive, and genuinely kind. They took the time to understand what I wanted, gave honest recommendations, and never pressured me into unnecessary services or products. The salon itself is clean, modern, and high-end, yet still feels comfortable and welcoming. They also offer complimentary snacks and drinks, which was a thoughtful touch. The entire experience felt personal rather than transactional, and I'm extremely happy with the results. If you're looking for skilled professionals who prioritize quality and honesty, ask for Derek and Kaylee at Theodora.

I'm so happy with my haircut by Celine at Theodora Salon on Olympic Blvd! I have very thick, coarse…read morehair, and my last haircut was back in May. I always need my hair thinned out, but my previous cut wasn't thinned enough, so I ended up wearing my hair half-up for the past four months. Celine completely transformed it! She gave me beautiful layers, thinned my hair exactly the way it needed, and added curtain bangs that frame my face so nicely. My hair feels much lighter, more manageable, and the cut looks great both down and styled. The price is definitely $$$, but for me, I was desperate for a hair remedy. Celine did a stupendous job, and I'm so happy with my haircut. I would definitely recommend her. She knows what she is doing.

I've been going to Daniel for years. He is absolutely amazing. I can honestly sit in his chair…read moreblindfolded and give him free rein and always be amazed. I recently came in for a bob with inspo pictures and styled me even better than the photos! He's the only stylist that can make me a beautiful classy blond to a deep brunette in phases. Not only does he do wonderful haircut but he's an expert at color. All while recommending the best products for hair care! Do yourself a favor and book a consultation with Daniel!

I went back-and-forth on writing this, but given that it's now been 10 months since the incident, I…read morehave to warn others. I spent years growing my hair to be healthy & strong, & I have ended up with fried hair that I have had to slowly nurse back to even halfway health. Come here if you want to be ignored, gaslighted, & end up with completely damaged, ruined hair. I do NOT recommend this salon for Black women / women of color / curly textures. This is long so buckle up. I originally reached out for a simple color service & was referred to Aly. I came in for a consultation and after an hour, she told me to continue texting her ideas so that we could figure the look out together. She then proceeded to mostly ignore me, & when she did respond, she sent photos of basic results nowhere near what we had discussed. Frustrated, I decided to come back in to just get my test strand toned back. She didn't even care to respond, just passed me off to the front desk. When I came back, I was asked if I wanted to consult with another stylist, Daniel, known for being "great with color." I have dark brown hair, & he assured me the cinnamon red look I wanted was achievable. In retrospect, having now lost my long & super healthy hair, still recovering from excessive chemical damage 10 months later, I WISH I had just walked out the door. For context, I had healthy, fine hair in long layers, anywhere from 2A-2C mixed wavy/curly textures, with length about an inch past my bust. I had defined curls, shine, & softness, & barely heat styled. Daniel lightened my hair with a low volume (supposedly) bleach & put a heat lamp on it. The heat lamp was so close to my hair that I moved at one point & it melted the plastic hair cap. After, I noticed my wet hair felt dry & tangled when he was combing, but I was trusting the process. When he started blowing out, my hair was WAY too blond & visibly dry. We had to tone it again. After another toner & cutting layers - 8 hours later - the result was pretty but felt parched, & also was not what we'd discussed color-wise. I was headed out of town the next day, so he promised to tone me when I was back & I trusted him. Fast forward - I shampoo my hair on vacation. My hair is GUMMY, breaking & pulling out in clumps. I can't stop crying. My super healthy hair that I could run my fingers through whirl wet was now inexplicably matted & dry, to the point I couldn't even work shampoo in properly. My curl pattern was DESTROYED. I reached out to Daniel & he put me in touch with the salon owner, saying my hair seemed "healthy" condition when I'd left. When I got back to LA, he did a deep conditioning treatment & a keratin treatment on the house, which helped somewhat. He also cut a few more inches off due to the damage - mind you, we had originally discussed that retaining my length was extremely important to me. He said to come back in 2 weeks for the toner to achieve the final color I'd requested. Traveling again, I got a simple wash & set at a local salon bc at this point, I couldn't even manage my hair on my own anymore on a day-to-day basis. Again, I do not do chemical treatments. The stylist told me I had intense chemical damage & chemically burned hair. I ended up having to cut off more, leaving my hair a little past shoulder length. I reached out to Daniel letting him know about the chemical damage; at this point, he said because I'd gone to another stylist he "couldn't service my hair anymore." He wrote a long text where he falsely asserted my hair was in healthy condition when I'd left & that it'd been too long since the service for him to help. Like...what? I had sent numerous pics & videos of the matting, shedding, gummy clumps of hair to both you & the salon owner & you're going to try & gaslight me? You told me to come back later! For him to try & rewrite history was extremely disappointing, & I lost all respect for him. Given his lack of integrity, I cut my losses, blocked, & decided not to argue about it further. I had to cut my hair a third time into a shoulder length bob. Now, 10 months later, I've been able to grow my hair a few inches with consistent trims, conditioning treatments, & protective styles, but it is still so hard to manage. My curl pattern has not returned to normal. At this point, I am STRONGLY considering a big chop, which was the worst possible scenario IMO. I will have to start over & spend the next few years growing back all the hair I've lost & restoring it to the health that I had before I ever stepped foot in this salon. I have spent 100s of dollars on bond building & reparative products, as well as follow up visits at other salons. On top of that, the immense stress & anxiety of losing my beautiful & healthy hair for what should've been a simple service was extremely, extraordinarily depressing. If you made it this far, do yourself and the health of your hair a huge favor and GO ANYWHERE ELSE.
