Things I didn't know before I've met Leila: - Threading hair underneath your eyebrow isn't good for your skin at all!!! Don't do it! We only supposed to use tweezers in that sensitive and thin area. Only do threading on the top of the eyebrow, not under. -Places where they thread your eyebrows in less then 10-15 minutes are not really assessing the shape of your face features to give you the best results for YOU. They copy & paste the same shape on each client. In and out the door in 10 minutes? No no no. Stay away from these type of threading salons. They want to see as many clients as possible to maximize profits, and won't give you the attention you need. I highly recommend Leila for brow threading and shaping. She is knowledgeable, passionate, and authentic. She takes her time with each client to insure him or her the best results. When we met for the first time she made some observations on my eyebrow shape that made a positive impact on my overall appearance. Leila takes the time to discuss what she sees and is passionate about her craft. I've been going to different threading salons for the past 10 years and she is absolutely the BEST. Worth every penny. I've never tried her plant-based facials but heard they are excellent. As for parking, there are plenty of metered parking spots around the salon. read more

Leila has an incredible talent for personalizing ger services for her clients!

Leila Morrissi really knows what she's doing with eyebrow shaping, threading, and skincare. She had a salon in Beverly Hills for 38 years and just moved to Santa Monica. Of all the threading places I've been to, I've never gotten such expert consultation and care for my eyebrows. Leila takes great pride in her work and her 100% organic, vegan skincare products. The fresh Persian cucumber toner she used smelled incredible, as did the Persian rosewater. It convinced me to try a facial (my first one ever!!) after threading. The "mini" facial she gave me had 5 rounds of amazing organic, fresh (and edible!) products like pomegranate exfoliant, yogurt + saffron (very expensive!! With benefits like turmeric but even better), and parsley (more vitamin C than citrus or berries). My skin was visibly glowing afterward!! She really does it all. She also does haircuts and color, which I haven't tried. But she learned hair from her mom at age 12, so I'm sure she's a pro at that too. read more

Latiff is incredible. I went in for threading, but have been working with her for three months now on my skin. She has an encyclopedic knowledge of plants from around the world and how they can be used to enhance the health of your skin. Most skin care professionals focus on chemical products or invasive approaches -- but her work is completely natural, with items sourced from around the world or grown organically in her own garden. This has been a life's work of hers (passed down from her grandmother in Iran) and the insight, quality, and knowledge she brings to her skin care is unbeatable. Highly recommend. read more

I'm so glad I found Leila. I was looking for a specialist to thread my eyebrows and I ended up getting my eyebrows threaded AND also getting a facial. The experience and results with Leila is worth every penny. She is extremely knowledgeable in eyebrow shape and meticulous in how she trims and threads. She takes the time to pluck any hairs underneath the eyebrow/above the eyelid area since she also understands skincare and skin sensitivity. She gave me recommendations and insight on eyebrow shape that other people have not before. The facial was incredible. I have not found another person in the states who does what Leila does. Leila will adapt the facial to your skin needs and is very considerate and engaged throughout the process, explaining to you each step and each of the ingredients. She uses all natural ingredients and makes all the products herself from scratch and is very intentional about where she sources her ingredients from. With Leila, you know you'll be getting quality. Highly recommend. I'm posting this a couple of days after, and my pores are smaller and I had a pesky pimple under that skin that has since naturally gone down. Thank you!!! read more

I did not expect to have such an amazing result done... I love Leila's approach to skincare and eyebrows. I initially came in for eyebrow threading and was so pleased with the results that I did a facial and my skin feels amazing and I love the natural products that she hand makes! Thank you so much. I would 100% recommend to anyone :) read more

I needed to get my eyebrows done after 16 months of covid neglect. Leila took me the same day I called, even though it was her day off. She is the first artist to take care of my eyebrows as no one has made them suit my face and open my eyes as she did. I was so thrilled with the service but moreover the experience and Leila's skin care philosophy I booked a facial for the next day. Leila is a skin care master, but unlike any I've ever experienced. Every ingredient she used and formulated was organic, plant based and crafted for my skin issues. Besides having the best glow of my life (I'm 46, I'm a skin care snob) Leila taught me about skin care and ingredients. Today I left her space a changed person. I'm so grateful for my experience with Leila, she has changed my life and the way I will think of skincare forever. read more

Leila is absolutely amazing and I am so grateful that our paths crossed! I initially reached out for eyebrows to have them properly shaped for the first time, and she was able to schedule me same day. Absolutely loved the results and then also decided to get a facial which was literally amazing. She is literally an artist, using organic and intentional ingredients all prioritized for the health of your skin. During each phase of the facial, she also shared an abundance of knowledge and her passion seeps into everything she does. I left not only with glowing skin, but with so much gratitude. Tl:dr book an appointment. I would 100% recommend and can't wait to come back, thank you Leila! read more

I was looking for an eyebrow threading place near where I work when I discovered Leila. She is truly an expert not only with eyebrow shaping, but also with facials. I aporeciate that she uses fresh and natural ingredients for her masks and other products. My skin is glowing - the best it has looked in years! So pleased that I found Leila! read more

Leila is the only person I trust with my eyebrows and face!! After years of botched threading I finally found someone who takes their time and knows how to shape eyebrows properly. Her facials are great too, she uses plant based products made from scratch and has taught me so much about the ingredients she's using and why. I really appreciate how passionate and informative she is, Leila is truly the best and her services are worth every penny read more

If I could give 6 stars, I would. My afternoon with Leila was the best beauty/ self care experience I've ever had. I went in for eyebrow threading, which was great. She described her plan and executed - painlessly! They look amazing. I ended up staying for a facial because Leila makes everything by hand herself each morning with natural, organic ingredients. Literally, chops, grinds, and hand makes herself. Leila has 6 generations worth of natural healing knowledge in her practice. It really shows. She was informative, lovely, and patient with my numerous questions. Also my skin hasn't looked this good in years. And I'm so grateful to find a practitioner who values the same natural, plant based ways as I do. I'll definitely be returning. read more

I definitely want to say that this was a fantastic and covid safe environment! The hospitality given by Lelia was incredible. Someone who really has passion for her job. She's been in the business for over 42 years, I believe she said, but actually cares for your skin and eyebrows. If I could rate her 100/100 I could, but since we only go off of scales from 1-10... I give her a 10/10 for sure! read more

I honestly don't even want to write this review because I want to keep this secret all to myself. The prices are great; Leila the esthetician, is super talented when it comes to shaping and maintaining my eyebrows and doing facial. All her products are organic and obviously good quality. It came as no surprise that I was more than pleased .Glad I found this place! :) read more

Seriously - read this because I promise that you've finally found the best thing you could do for your skin. The Organic Vegan Facial (Leila literally even travels abroad to get the best and most natural things like the luxe saffron) has given me so much hope. After almost 10 YEARS of hugely struggling with my skin (and thus skin OCD), Leila's vast knowledge and experience (starting when she was 9 yrs old!), changed my relationship with my skin. I have tried endless oral medications, topicals, brands of makeup, face wash, moisturizer, the "best" derms, etc. and never found anything that BOTH nourishes my skin and eliminates breakouts and scars (Leila's stuff works surprisingly quickly too). I actually ENJOY getting facials now. Amazingly, for the first time ever, not a single thing here has irritated my sensitive skin. I LOVE my skin and it's just the beginning. Haven't felt like this since I was a little kid. Leila patiently and thoughtfully answers all of the (endless) questions I ask. I feel like I have truthfully learned so much about skin (she loves teaching you) and have never had care as customized as this. She knows everything about every skin type, tone, age, etc. and uses that knowledge to create custom tweaks and ways of doing things. She only uses 100% natural things because 1. They're beyond effective and 2. She knows so much about all ways to treat skin that she knows what to avoid. She considers the state of your skin when you go, too (came in with sunburn the first time so she used some natural soothing things and no steam during the facial). She's also amazing at eyebrows (which I'm REALLY particular about) and genuinely cares for them so they grow healthily and how you want them. Unlike everyone else I've tried, there's no pressure to buy anything. She takes the time to get to know your skin and brows before ever suggesting things and it's basically addressing the concerns I initiate asking about. Long story short: just go see her. 1000% worth it and her sweet and intelligent nature is the cherry on top. read more

Leila is so very detail oriented and she revived my eyebrows! I used to thread and wax and I was never fully satisfied. Leila does a deep analysis of your facial structure and she figures out what works best. I will only go to this salon for all of my skincare needs! read more

I was looking for an eyebrow place that would actually take the time to figure out the best shape for my brows and Leila was everything I could hope for!! I haven't had my eyebrows done in a few years and was looking for someone that would really help define my natural brows and understand what would work for my face. Not only did she make my eyebrows look amazing but she gave me the best facial that left my skin feeling hydrated and glowing immediately! Her facials use only the best, natural ingredients and she took the time to understand my skin type and gave my skin exactly what it needed. I can't recommend her enough - I can't wait to tell my friends and family about her. She's so knowledgeable and the time and care she takes truly shows how intentional and passionate she is about what she does. Leila is the simply the best! I feel so lucky to have found her place and I can't wait to come back. read more

Leila is AMAZING. My eyebrows have never looked so good. For years my mom would constantly tell me that my eyebrows were ever so slightly off, sent her a picture after getting them done by Leila and her reply, "PERFECTION". :) read more

I've been seeing Leila for eyebrows and more recently facials for a few months now. She is, without a doubt, not only incredibly talented and knowledgeable in her craft but also one of the most lovely human beings to be around! She makes all her products from natural, organic ingredients and caters treatment/shapes eyebrows to what is most suitable for your skin and face shape. My skin has responded very well after each visit, and I see a noticeable difference almost immediately. On top of her expertise, Leila is also such a joy to interact with. She is thoughtful, kind, accommodating, honest, and very welcoming. I appreciate how intentional she is in her work and you can tell she genuinely cares about each of her clients. I've enjoyed all my exchanges with her so far and will definitely keep coming back! read more

I found Leila when I was looking for a new threading studio, and I couldn't be more thrilled! I've had a number of negative eyebrow experiences, so I'm always nervous to try new places. Before the appointment she spoke to me on the phone to make sure I felt comfortable with her approach. During the appointment she educated me about my eyebrows and walked me through every step of her process. This is one of the few (and maybe only) times I've been truly happy with my brows. After having such a positive threading experience, I returned for a facial and it did not disappoint. All the products she uses are natural, and she explained the benefits of each product/treatment. She also gave me great recommendations for at-home treatments based on my specific skin concerns. It's been about a week and my skin is still glowing. Stubborn pimples that I've been trying to get rid of for a month plus faded within 2-3 days. Not to mention, Leila is a wonderful and kind person! I would highly recommend Latiff if you are looking for great brows or natural skincare. read more

Leila is great she really knows what she is talking about! She uses vegan and organic ingredients she knows how to apply it on your skin and what works for your skin. Don't waste ur time and money on products and product lines with chemicals go to her and be taken care of. She knows what shes doing! She's new in santa monica. Definitely a hidden gem. Thanks again! read more

Leila is extremely talented. As an engineer, I really appreciate the science behind her methods! I have desperately needed a personal touch and care taken on my eyebrows and she absolutely nailed it. We are on a journey to make them match one another, and I am so lucky they're in good hands. After the first consultation visit, she improved my arch and shape by orders of magnitude! I was SO pleased with the eyebrow service, and desperately also needed a haircut. I immediately asked her if she does hair and sure enough SHE DOES! Just got out of that appointment yesterday and omg... this frizzy-haired girl's life has changed! She took the time to give me the perfect cut. I have long black hair, and she miraculously made it healthy and perfect without taking too much of the length off!! I have found my go-to person for all the above and am so so so relieved. She's also an incredible human, and very easy to talk to and warm. Only great things to say about Leila, truly. I have a facial appointment in two weeks, will report again then too :) read more

As a man who just turned 22, I have always been insecure about my eyebrows. I thought it was about time that I start taking care of myself. I'm glad my first time getting my eyebrows done was with Leila. She made me feel like I was in good hands and I didn't worry one bit. She took the time to understand my concerns (as a first-timer) and what I wanted. We took it very slow and periodically would show me what it looked like to make sure I was comfortable. The end result was outstanding and I feel like a new man. I'm 100% coming back again to get my eyebrows done and will get a facial with her sometime in the future. read more

Leila is amaaaazing! I could not be happier with a plant-based organic facial specialist. She really understands facial structure - my face is asymmetrical with one brow bone higher than the other. She understood how to make it even and just perfect. I will try a facial next with my next threading appointment, I cannot wait! She was showing me all her natural formulas. She has the expert wisdom from her ancestors and has been doing this her whole life since childhood and it shows!!! She is incredibly kind, warm, genuine and magical!! read more

I cannot emphasize enough how truly remarkable Leila is. She has just changed my life. I went to her for my eyebrows because she got great reviews. Leila describes herself as an eyebrow specialist. And that is exactly what she is. An artist actually. My eyebrows have never ever looked better. Ever. And she was so gentle that my skin was not red or irritated at all afterward. That's a first. While I was there Leila showed me her homemade skin care products. I was blown away by all of the little mason jars with handwritten labels. To say that she truly cares about her work and her clients is an understatement. Leila told me she does custom facials with her homemade products. I had zero hesitation in booking an appointment. I came back the next day and I'm so glad I did. My skin looks and feels amazing. I've never wanted to get facials or even use product on my skin because it is really sensitive. I don't put in effort toward caring for my skin. I believe Leila has just changed that for me. I could go on and on and on and on about how amazing Leila is. But I will stop here and encourage you to see for yourself! read more

Latiff Studio is absolutely amazing and I can't recommend Leila Morrisey enough. Not only is she amazing with eyebrows, but her facials use natural recipes and ingredients and you leave with glowing skin. I found her studio so randomly but I will be coming back. She's also incredibly sweet and it's very easy to talk to her. Highly recommended! read more

I highly recommend Leila for brow threading and shaping and plant-based facials. She is knowledgeable, passionate, and authentic - all characteristics I'm so grateful to have found in a beautician. She has an excellent eye for brow shaping, understanding that my brows aren't naturally even but makes them look great (if I don't say so myself ;)). I used to go to another studio that became a bit too corporate and impersonal. Leila is the exact opposite and such a breath of fresh air. She is very selective about the products she uses, making sure to choose only ones with real organic ingredients. The care and warmth that she puts into each treatment is really appreciated and hard to find. read more

Leila is LA's hidden secret! Seriously, she is incredible. You can tell how much she cares about sculpting the perfect look. She takes her time, clearly communicates every step of the way, and makes sure you leave feeling like your perfect self. THANK YOU LEILA! read more

Leila is magic! Never have I encountered someone who is so deliberate, precise, and genuinely cares about her clients like Leila does.

Leila is AWESOME! I came in to get threading, but ended up getting tinting, threading and a full facial!! She uses all natural, organic ingredients that smelled and felt amazing on my face. I got this done yesterday and my face is still glowing and super smooth. The results were noticeable right away. And my brows have really never looked better. Can't wait to start coming here a regular basis. Thank you Leila!! read more

I had the most amazing eyebrow experience with Leila! I have never had such expert care and attention paid to my brows, and it really made a difference (so many compliments!). Best of all, her products are vegan, homemade, need to be refrigerated, etc. I could never go to anyone else after Leila! read more

Leila is AMAZING! First off, her attention to detail is remarkable. Within minutes, she was able to diagnose the issue with my brows and make them perfect (and when I say perfect, I mean she refused to miss a single hair, WOW!). I have been dealing with sub-par waxers and threaders and to finally have found someone who takes their time and truly cares is such a relief! Secondly, the time and energy she puts into her products used during her facials is something special. All of her ingredients are fresh, smell wonderful, and really work! My skin is GLOWING after my facial. Plus, she is so friendly, helpful, and wants to educate her clients on her process. Loved that! It's safe to say, Leila is my new go-to for all things beauty. Thank you Leila! read more

Leila is truly a gem. I had over plucked areas & thin eyebrow but she has done wonders. Her facials are also magical (all organic raw ingredients) & leave me with a natural glow every time. She makes a face wash that has prevented so many breakouts for me.I'm truly grateful to have Leila she is very knowledgeable in her expertise. She has saved me so much money by being a true friend & recommending what my skin truly needs. She's definitely a must try if you are in the area. read more

I had a facial and eyebrow threading here and both I can easily say was the best experience I've ever had. She took such care and thought into re shaping my brows which have been previously over plucked and uneven. I am 100% returning. The most natural facial that left me glowing. Highly highly recommend her services read more

Leila is a gem of a human! I first went for threading and am so thrilled with the outcome. She was really thoughtful about what shape worked for my face. Once I caught a glimpse of the all organic and almost all edible face products she makes I made a facial appointment, and once again Leila did not disappoint. She is extremely knowledgeable and will customize treatments for you, and even tell you how to make them at home (in my case unfortunately I don't live in the area so don't know when I can come back!). If you are anywhere near here even for a short visit you must meet Leila! read more

I received the best facial I have ever had from Lila. Lila uses high quality, plant based, organic ingredients. l have very sensitive skin and the products that she used did not cause any irritation and left my skin looking so bright and feeling so soft. Lila also took the time to educate me about the benefits of each of the products that she used. read more

I trust NO one else with my brows, and her facial was absolute poetry. If you are in LA you must go see her, your skin will thank you.
