    Beautiful, serene and creative decor and my favorite haircut I've ever had! I've tried going shoulder length a few times, and this is the only cut I've truly loved. I walked in without a clear idea and had a random jumble of reference pictures, and from that Pamela created a gorgeous assymetrical bob with great a form and silhouette that really matches me. Thank you!

    My new layers and long curtain bangs that Pam did for me!

    Pam did such an amazing job with my haircut last week. I had way too long and grown out hair. She gave me great textured layers and did a perfect job with my curtain bangs. She listened to exactly what I wanted. She would check in during the middle of cutting to make sure I liked what she'd done so far. Go to Pam - can't recommend her and Blackbyrd more highly!

    Washing station. Tin wall!

    There are several things to consider when choosing the perfect salon. First, is the stylist a master of their craft? Pamela, who happens to be the owner of blackbyrd, certainly is. She's been cutting my hair for several years now, and she always manages to do an impeccable job. She is great at listening to my requests, examining pictures of what I want, and then creating that 'do in a way that works for my hair, face, and overall look. She's a perfectionist when it comes to cutting hair, which I love--fine tuning at the end. She's easy to talk to and also gives a darn good head massage during your shampoo. I've recommended many friends, and they've done nothing but sing her praises. Lucky for me, my colorist, Cristen, is now at blackbyrd as well. I like to brighten up my blond, and Cristen is fantastic at natural looking highlights. She's equally adept at my requests for "this color blond" (holding out a picture of Sienna Miller) as she is at, "I don't know...brighter? More platinum than honey?" While there may be other talented stylists/colorists in LA, the thing that sets blackbyrd apart is the setting. Each detail is unique and well thought out: from the tin wall at the washing station, to the French tunes playing on the antique record console, to the vintage handkerchiefs to dry your hands in the restroom. These details, combined with the small size of the salon, create a warm, inviting environment. Like you're spending the afternoon with friends. Perhaps with tea sandwiches and Lillet nearby.

    Shampoo station. I'm obsessed with this chandelier!

    After moving from NYC last summer I had tried to hold out and stay loyal to my NY stylist of 5 years, but after meeting Pamela I knew she'd take care of me. Pamela is very thoughtful about her work and is a great communicator so you're confident that she knows exactly what you want or offers great suggestions on ways to mix things up. I have thin/fine long hair and somehow she finds a way to layer my hair so that it miraculously has volume! I let my hair air dry most days because the cut is that good. I can just spray some sea spray to bring out the layers and I'm done. My sister has natural big curls and very thick hair and Pamela has also made her hair low maintenance and fabulous! On top of her amazing skills, she is also one of the nicest and warmest people I know. I so look forward to catching up with her from the chair and always leave feeling more beautiful inside and out because of her. To top it all off, Blackbyrd is one of the most beautiful spaces I've ever been in. The decor makes you feel like you've strolled into a gorgeous old parlor that contains lovely music and fantastic company. I believe most (if not all) of the products used are natural and/or vegan and leave my hair smelling and looking great. I've slowly transitioned to Pamela's suggestions of shampoo, conditioner and prep products and my hair has never been healthier. I'm also very proud to support a local, independent business like this one built by strong and very talented women.

    This place is such a treat! I love the vintage furniture inside the beautiful California bungalow. Pamela gave me such a great cut! I'm so happy to have found my new salon in south Pasadena.

    Coffee
    Sandy B.

    Today I had my hair appointment with Pamela and it was fantastic. To start, I was offered something to drink and since it was a bit chilly I figured I'd request a cup of coffee. Wow! I was given a beautiful cup of freshly pressed coffee! It was such a treat. I wanted a completely new hair cut so I was a bit nervous. Pamela delivered! What I loved most was that she provided me with tips on how to style my hair at home to get the same effect. The entire experience was great! The decor of the salon is like no other. If you want to be treated well and feel great when you leave, you MUST try Blackbyrd!

Finding the salon was easy and there was parking right out front, which made it even better. I stay in South Pasadena on weekends at my boyfriend's house, so I decided to give it a try. EJ was incredibly kind and welcoming. I arrived a few minutes early while he was finishing with another client, and he saw me right at my appointment time. He also offered drinks and snacks, which I really appreciated because I definitely needed the caffeine boost that day. He washed my hair and gave me the trim I desperately needed, removing all my split ends while still keeping my hair long just like I asked. I'm always nervous about losing too much length, but he really listened and delivered exactly what I wanted. His station was also very cute and calming, with plants around the mirror and a dream catcher. I deal with anxiety, so I really appreciated his relaxing energy during the appointment. I usually get my trims done in Beverly Hills with my longtime stylist, and I was pleasantly surprised that the price here was about the same -- $120, which is pretty standard for a good trim in Beverly Hills as well. Since I happened to be in the area, I thought "why not?" and I'm really glad I did because it turned out to be such a pleasant experience.

I've had my make up done multiple times for weddings and such by other people but I was never satisfied. (Actually that's an understatement. I hated it haha) I did my trial with Yuri for my engagement shoot and I could not have been more happy! She's amazing! She really knows how to work with the features you got without over doing it, yet making you look fabulous in pictures. Her and her team of girls did hair and make up for me and my 5 bridesmaids for the wedding and everyone LOVED how they looked! That's hard to do with 6 picky girls! She sweet, she's real, she's accommodating, she's honest, and a perfectionist. Everything you would want in a hairstylist/ makeup artist. I would definitly recommend her and go back to her as my hairstylist!

Even my mother, who is extremely difficult to please, complimented my makeup and hair. My makeup lasted all day and night and photographed extremely well. I would definitely recommend Yuri!
