After my stylist and friend of 10+ years moved out of state and two traumatic salon experiences later, the universe (or algorithm, but I'll choose universe) sent me Gregga L.A. on instagram. Their instagram and website are user friendly and highly informative so that clients know exactly what they'll be getting. Appointments are needed and can be booked on the main website. My appointment was with Carina, and she is my new hair stylist angel. I initially booked for a foilyage, but turned it into a bold-color-yage (my new term, hehe). The base is essentially a foilyage, but with Carina's magic made it lilac/violet. It was a long process that took about 6 hours, as expected, due to my dark hair going light. During this time, Carina made sure I was comfortable, hydrated, and somehow I also felt like a new bestie with the great talks we had. Overall, it was a great experience and I am beyond happy with how my hair turned out. I can't wait to come back and get my hair maintained and to catch up! Thank you so much Carina! read more

Gregga L.A. - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Run, don't walk to Gregga salon!! I've been on the search for The Haircut for a long time. I'm talking the kind where the stylist looks at your face shape, hair type, and preferred maintenance level and then delivers on your goals at a great price point. Dani accomplished just that! I really appreciate how she took the time to read my form, which is amazing that Gregga has you fill out a form in advance, and then walked me through what my haircut could look like. She was also so fun to chat with. I went to a flea market after the salon and several people asked me where I got my hair done and I swiftly pointed them to check out the salon. read more

I love this place so much. Everyone here is so sweet and amazing, the vibe of the whole salon is so fun. I always recommend Gregga to anyone in need of a haircut. I, so far, have gotten my haircut by Amy and Carina, and both have slayed me so hard. You truly cannot go wrong here. I LOVE GREGGA LA! read more

Erika moved away so Amy's been cutting my hair over the past year or so and she is WONDERFUL. She makes my fine, limp hair feel textured and bouncy. Seriously skilled and just the sweetest person. Love this salon, won't go anywhere else! read more

I got a bixie done here a few months ago and it has grown out so cute. The vibe is great, trendy, and my stylist thoroughly understood what I wanted. I'm only going to get my hair cut here from now on! read more

Had the best experience here with Carina! I got a balayage and a haircut done with her and I love it so much. Even with just a few hours together, I trust her vision and expertise with hair. Everyone here is also so nice, welcoming, and really make you feel comfortable during the appointment. This will definitely be my go-to salon here in LA! read more

Gregga Prothero gave me the BEST haircut I've ever had in my life! No exaggeration. She knew exactly what I was trying to explain and envision. I really appreciate that the salon sends out a form to fill out where I could include reference photos and explain what I was going for prior to the haircut. I think that makes the experience a lot better because the stylist and the client have a little bit more understanding prior to when they actually meet for the haircut. I am very loyal to the hairstylist. I've had over the last 20 years and I'm really happy to say that I found Gregga. Also, the interior of the salon is gorgeous and they have excellent styling products. The value for the service I got was incredible. I highly suggest if you would like to find a new salon you can stay loyal to that you check out Gregga LA. I'll be back! read more

I found Gregga's salon by chance and I'm so grateful I took a chance with them! I decided I needed to chop off my peakaboo balayage, and I got paired with Amy. When I say Amy is amazing... Amy. IS. AMAZING. She greeted me as soon as I walked in, and the first thing I noticed was how cute her hair was! So I knew I was in good hands. She knew immediately how to balance my desired cut with my face shape. On top of that, she was attentive, relaxing and such a pleasure to chat with. I started with a cut today, and I am looking forward into venturing into more adventurous hair territory with her in the future :) Oh! And the icing on this beautiful cake is that it's located in super cute plaza with ample parking. Next door there is a cute cafe (Lemon Poppy), and since I had a bit of time before my appointment, I hopped over and snagged an Iced Americano with the fluffiest, buttery buttermilk biscuit I've ever had. It came with butter and a silky berry jam that put me in heaven - but that's another review. Thank you Amy, can't wait to be back! read more

I found Gregga on Instagram because a friend liked them so apparently the algorithm popped them into my feed. Glad it did for once! I had my first appt there today, with Amy, and she was awesome and I'm super happy with my cut! Amy made me feel super comfortable and it was a great experience overall. Very cute place, and bonus is it's next to Lemon Poppy Kitchen. read more

Amy is wonderful! I had a root touch up, all over hair color, and haircut. My hair was bland and heavy, she gave me exactly what I was looking for. Leaving my hair light with movement and covering my grays! She gave me her professional advice while still listening to what I wanted. The communication was amazing! 10/10 in every possible way! The salon itself is super calming and clean. Can't wait to go back again! read more

I needed to change up my hair with a cut and something fun, and Monica really hooked me up with both! She helped me with deciding what would be both healthiest and the best looking for my hair, and we ultimately decided on dying my hair black with a pop of pink on my bangs, as well as doing a wolf cut. I wanted to keep my hair length, and she did a really good job with the layers while still preserving length. Overall, I felt really taken care of at Gregga, Monica did such an amazing job with the color and cut, I don't think I'll go to any other salon from this point forward. I am more than happy with the result and I love my new read more

Gregga L.A. - Cut and color by monica 3 - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A friend of mine recommended Amy because I loved her most recent cut. Unfortunately, my schedule didn't align, so I had a cut with Gregga herself. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the best haircut I have ever gotten! She totally understood the assignment and how to give me what I was looking for while also keeping in mind my hair type. Gregga gave my long, fine, straight hair shape and bounce and somehow even discovered that I have natural waves??? Even after a wash and air dry it looks incredible. She was also great at giving me low maintenance product recommendations. Cannot recommend this place enough!! read more

I've been seeing gregga for years now! Followed her from when she was in hawaiian gardens, to LA, and now to her very own salon! She's been able to recreate every look I've asked of her, and she's the only one I've trusted to dye my thick black hair over the years. I always get compliments months after getting my hair done because of the color placement and her shampoo/conditioner recommendations have helped me keep up with it. I am currently a student and I work and she definitely makes the time to fit in my busy schedule. Not only that the cost is more than reasonable for the amount of work she puts in. She even gives me tips on how to style my hair or any products that will help it. read more

If you're thinking about it, do it. Lizelle is my girl. She got me! I had been bouncing around stylists, never really feeling comfortable anywhere else. Lizelle is great because she understands what I want and knows what she's doing. My hair feels so soft and healthy. And my hair gets all the compliments. My Lyft driver even said "People say perfection doesn't exist but there it is, your hair." Really glad I found this salon. Everyone seems really nice and the vibe is pretty chill. Highly recommend! read more

Beautiful, clean salon where the bright colors immediately fill you with great energy. I love having an excuse to come out from Midcity LA to get in some self-care! This review in particular goes out to Monica, who's a certified BEAST in fun colors & tones. She's done my hair 3 times now & every single time I come out looking & feeling incredible. I've been every color of the rainbow except for all black; going into our last appointment I only knew which colors I wanted on my head & NOTHING ELSE! So this color melty charcoal to neon balayage goodness you see here was completely Monica's idea. She also refreshed my money piece & layers & made sure I was comfortable the entire time. If you're feeling bored or uninspired & want a sexy lil change, look no further than Monica & Gregga LA!!! read more

Monica has been doing absolute magic with my hair for the past 2 years. I had never dyed my hair before and am so glad I trusted her with my initial transformation to vibrant colors (and nearly every 8-10 weeks since then!). She helps bring such fun ideas every time and guides me in keeping my hair as healthy as possible. I'm blown away every time and recommend Monica to EVERYONE! read more

Thanks Lizelle! read more

Gregga L.A. - Color by Lizelle! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been coming here to see Monica for about a year and a half and I'll never go anywhere else! The salon itself is so relaxed and cute -- and Monica is AMAZING. I've been to her for both cut and color; sometimes, I go in and tell her exactly what I want, and she does it, but even better!And then, after wearing long hair for my entire life I went to her and asked for something short but I didn't really know what I wanted and she gave me a short cut that I am obsessed with. And she's such a lovely, funny, and sweet human being. Love Gregga so much. read more

I live in South LA and drive to Glassell Park for this haircut, that should be indication enough of how much I have loved my past two cuts. You can really customize your experience with their online scheduler, i.e. if you want to have a chill or chatty appointment, bang trim or full cut, etc. You can send pictures before your appointment so you're both on the same page. And there is always parking which is a huge must in LA. Gregga is great! I always leave feeling confident and ready to take on the world. Already scheduled my next appointment! read more

Tried to schedule a service, and when I sent pictures of my son's 3C hair, my appointment was immediately canceled. There was no communication other than an auto-generated email. I called the number that I texted the pictures to, and there was no answer. I texted them, stating their unprofessionalism, and got no response until an hour later. I also called the number on the website and was prompted to leave a voicemail. They responded by saying they "sent resources," but I didn't receive anything. The whole situation was very frustrating, and I did feel discriminated against due to the type of hair they would be working on. read more

I looked high and low for hair stylists that had portfolios that showcased hair cuts and not just color jobs and found Erika at Gregga. I've always been meh/laidback about my haircuts - every hair cut I've gotten has been okay, but never good enough for me to commit to one hair stylist. However, I think that's changed today! Erika really listened to my concerns and what I was looking for, often consulting me throughout the process and making me feel comfortable enough to voice my opinion. She also walked me through what she was doing as she was blow drying/styling my hair as I voiced that I didn't like the way it waved after it dries, which no one has historically had the patience to do. She styled it straight, made a few more cuts, and even gave me beach waves to show me how it would look wavy. Overall service at Gregga is also top-knotch. They ask you comfort level with mask on/off, whether you're allergic to anything ahead of washing your hair, etc. They're extremely thoughtful of their customers and that alone goes the extra mile with me. Their booking system is extremely easy online (I was able to make a next-day appointment online) and all pricing is available online. Definitely looking forward to returning once I want to color my hair! read more

Monica is absolutely amazing!! Made my hair dreams come true and she's super sweet too! I'm definitely coming back to her forever!! Came in today with faded purple/pink split hair and she transformed me to pink/orange split! I FEEL SO BEAUTIFUL!! Thanks Monica! read more

I've been following Gregga all over LA! I'm so happy she has her own salon so she can finally showcase her talent and the talent of other hairdressers. Gregga always makes sure you're comfortable, safe and cared for and everyone at her salon greets you with a smile. Gregga is amazing at what she does and I'm willing to drive however far to get my hair done by her. I recently got partial & full highlights and I feel so pretty! read more

I 100000% percent recommend Gregga LA for any of your hair needs! Erika gave me my detailed haircut for today.

Erika explained every step of the haircut process so I knew exactly what to expect. On top of that, Erika is just a great person to talk to, very personable, and very attentive! I am so happy with my new hair! I am definitely coming back for more thank you Gregga LA and thank you Erika! read more

Gregga Does NOT disappoint. I don't trust anyone else with my hair! After years of wanting an ash blonde look but not receiving it, I found Gregga who made all my hair dreams come true. I've been coming to her for almost 6 years now. She listens to what I want and always provides the safest answer to my request so that my hair doesn't get damaged. She takes her time and never rushes through the process. I always leave feeling like a whole new person. read more

I've been seeing Gregga since she was at This or Die in Atwater. When she opened her own salon in the middle of the pandemic, of course I followed her there! Not only is she a brilliant and super talented hair stylist, she is such a warm, kind, friendly, and overall lovely person. She does a great job taking care of her clients, making sure that the end result is exactly what you ask for. She is very professional with her consultations and will let you know what is possible or not possible based on your beginning hair. I have super thick, black hair and so it definitely takes some time for the hair lightening process. Gregga takes her time and I'm usually in the chair a few good hours. It is always great catching up with her! I've done a hair cut (no color), vivid color hair cut, and balayage hair cut services. Each time, I am absolutely thrilled with the results (see pictures!). I haven't been to any of the other stylists but they all look amazing based on the IG feed! I love that each person has their own style and the vivid & creative colors are always something to admire on Instagram. Gregga and the team take COVID precautions seriously. Everyone wears a mask, and there is also an air purifier near the entrance. I've gone twice in 2021, and I've felt 100% safe both times. Last but not least, the salon space itself is super cute. Parking is so easy with a large shared lot. Also, the bright yellow walls and custom cut out mirrors give the whole place a super fun vibe. Chairs are comfortable and they have hooks for your purse. Definitely recommend coming to Gregga LA, and you would be supporting a woman-owned, Asian-owned (Filipina-owned!!), small business - how cool is that?! read more

Gregga is the best!! She always knows exactly what I want when it comes to haircut/styling. I've been going to Gregga for a while now, and before when I use to color my hair, she was seriously the best colorist! Even when my hair color grew out, it still looked great because of her technique. An added plus, her salon is the cutest! Always look forward to my hair appointment at Gregga L.A. it is a real treat and they take care of you. p.s. Gregga is super knowledgeable about hair care needs and products as well! Love Gregga & Gregga L.A. read more

Gregga L.A was very friendly, cool vibe, and great work. The salon is clean, she offered me some water, very easy to talk to and it was such a nice experience. The owner/hair stylist Gregga talked with me first. She asked what my hair vision was, and made sure we were on the same page. She made sure she knew exactly what I was looking for and did an AMAZING job. It was worth every penny because I got what I paid for. Great service, beautiful cut, and it was exactly the way I wanted it. I recommend making an appointment and coming to see Gregga L.A. next time for me I'll add some color. read more

I always /always/ fall in love with my hair after a trip to Gregga's! Every time I want to shake things up with my hair, Gregga is my immediate go-to! She always manages to get the exact idea I want but make it so much better (and keep it nice and healthy too)! Last time I went I decided to bleach some money pieces and they turned out even better than I imagined. I'll always come here whenever I want to try something new out with my hair. We'll discuss what I had in mind and she'll always let me know how long the process will take and how much maintenance my hair will need to keep any hairstyle I'm thinking of! The salon also follows COVID protocol and requires masks to be worn at all times which makes me feel extremely safe and comfortable when coming to get my hair done. Just when you think it can't get any better, you can also show off your new hair look using their cute studio light mirror in the restroom! read more

When choosing a salon or hairstylist, you want someone who is not only going to listen to you, but execute your vision. Gregga has been my go-to stylist for years.

I even trust her enough to experiment with styles and colors of her choice.

I've been wanting to get my haircut at Gregga LA for a while so when I saw Lizelle's books open I had to try it out--and I'm very happy with my refreshed look! She took my outgrown, flat hair and gave it the shaping and layers needed to bring it back to life. I booked my appointment a week in advance, and Lizelle contacted me a few days before requesting a current photo and an inspiration photo, and I got several reminders of my appointment leading up to it. Gregga LA is in a super cute plaza, away from busy main streets and free parking. Lizette was ready for me as soon as I stepped in and already knew what I wanted so we got started. I felt very comfortable in her chair and she's so sweet! Her style is vibrant and her personality matches it. I was going for a fluffy, 90s layered look that would blow out nicely, and that's exactly what I got. I love supporting Filipina professionals and I'm so glad I got to meet Lizelle and the Gregga LA team today! read more

My favorite salon! I've been going to Gregga since she was with her previous salon and I was so happy to see her get her own place.

This is the first time I've had my hair lightened and treated and had no harsh smell or dry hair after, it feels like a dream every time. The salon itself is also adorable and spotless. I love going to Gregga but I can also confidently recommend any stylist there and cannot recommend this salon enough. I'm so grateful to have this place. read more

My first time at this salon was around summer of last year. The location is very convenient and there's plenty of parking. The atmosphere is welcoming, bright, cheery, has nice aesthetics and very clean. The few times I've been a client of Erika's. She's really nice, easy to talk to and listens to what her clients want. I love how she does my hair and color. I typically go to her but was bummed that she wasn't not available until October. Today, I went with Lizelle for the first time and she did an excellent job on my haircut and color!! She's also really talented, nice, and listens to her clients! I'm very picky when it comes to choosing hairstylists, but Lizelle and Erika are both awesome, great with hair and color!! I highly recommend both!!

There's truly no one else I trust with taking care of my hair aside from Gregga! I've been following her for years and am SO excited she opened her own salon that matches her talent and aesthetic. We've done so many different cuts together (from A-lines to long layers) and colors beyond the spectrum (peacock, red ombre, brunette balayage, blondes, and most recently jet black to wine red foilage). Gregga is truly a master at her craft AND I was so impressed with her professionalism while abiding by all the CDC guidelines during the COVID pandemic. read more

A long overdue review, as I have been a Gregga client for 8+ years: First and foremost, this is a woman-owned business and wonderful human-owned business. Gregga, the owner, is such a sweet, considerate, and warm-hearted person -- the time in the chair always flies because we have so much to share. I look forward to getting my hair done because it means I also get to see her. Second, this a talented group who are very clearly leading in their craft. The first time I went to Gregga I was amazed at how on point she was with the photo I showed her, which, let's be real, almost never happens. I'm probably a client with more modest hair, but the hair transformations I've seen being a client here for so many years...It's wild! It's worth noting that any hair color(s) you want they can do it. Do you want electric blue, lavender, rainbow? Yes. Do you want a beautiful balayage? Yeah, girl. Deep copper? They got chu. Last, I come to Gregga because I know I am in good hands ALWAYS. I walk away each time feeling like my hair looks amazing because it does! I get a lot of compliments on my hair. When you feel like you're someone who maybe did not get blessed with the best hair genes, it's a really good feeling. So many of my friends are now Gregga clients too. We have our own mini Gregga fan club going. Cannot say enough positive things about Gregga and all the magic they create. Make that appointment! read more
