Sheree Pouls is the absolute best! I will follow her anywhere. I have received so many compliments on my hair since seeing her. She's a masterful colorist and has such a talent for cutting as well. She really listens to what you want and caters to that. In addition, she's done my makeup for a few awards shows and I've been mistaken for talent! I highly recommend lips & locks for professional and a-level service. read more

Lips & Locks - Amazing cut & color - Makeup Artists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Great cut and learning lesson from Sheree! She was able to accentuate my natural curls all the while teaching me how to style and take care of my hair. Definitely will return! read more

This salon is not a place I would recommend. They participate in marketing scams that take your money and then will not actually give the service. I spent $70 and the owner refuses to honor it because it's 10 days past a 6 month expiration date that is never mentioned and listed in very small print on the back of the voucher that I paid for at Christmas time and have been to busy to use until now. She could have easily scheduled the blowout and gained a customer. It clearly wasn't worth it and she was okay keeping my money. That alone is bad karma and not someone to do business with in my opinion. read more

I found Lips and Locks through a Formosi package and I'm so glad that I did! I came in for a haircut with a blowout and style with Sheree. The cut is beautiful, it feels so healthy and has been super easy to style! Sheree was also so sweet and easy to chat with. I'll be coming back for my next trim and some balayage! read more

I met Sheree at a work event when I had just moved to the area. She was very friendly and easy to talk to, and shared that she does hair & makeup styling. I gladly accepted her business card and was always meaning to reach out for a cut. By chance we ran into each other a few months later at the grocery store & she was quick to remember our encounter at the event and said hello. I was touched that she remembered me & happy to run into her again! It was a sign! I had to see her for a haircut (and desperately needed one too!) Her studio was beautiful and a great location. Sheree was also extremely helpful with suggestions for a cut based on my hair type. I absolutely love the cut & she was even able to fix a bad haircut job that I was trying to grow out. So happy to have found her! read more

Sheree is a fabulous stylist who creates your best look rather than following the latest trend. He salon is relaxing, private and conveniently located near the Third Street Promenade, in Santa Monica. She's also a lovely person! read more

Sheree is the bomb dot com! She made me feel like a super model on my wedding day. She gave me the perfect amount of bridal glam without looking unnatural or clownish. My makeup looked flawless both in person and in all the photos and lasted the entire day and night, even after hours of dancing! She also did makeup for my mom and 2 sisters, and hair for one of my bridesmaids- everyone just looked gorgeous. To top it off, she is such a sweetheart and brings a sense of calm and ease, which is definitely necessary to combat the pre-wedding jitters. read more

I was referred to Sheree for my wedding two years ago by the Hotel Bel-Air. There is a reason the hotel staff recommended Sheree to me - she IS THE BEST!!!!! Not only did Sheree do my hair and makeup for my wedding day, she also has been doing my hair since the initial consultation. What an amazing difference in my hair - both the color and cut. I get compliments ALL THE TIME. Wedding or not, Sheree is a true professional. She takes pride in her work and is a perfectionist. And to top it off, I look forward to seeing every two months - she is an absolute doll to be around. A true gem! read more

Sheree is amazing. She did makeup make-up for myself, 7 other women, and 2 teenage boys for my wedding. We had a wide range of ages and tastes and Sheree was not phased at all. She did makeup for my 87 year old grandmother and for my 19 year old cousin. Additionally she offered great tips and suggestions. Sheree drove to the hair salon where we were all getting ready and coordinated with my hair stylist. Sheree was also had a very calming presence and made the whole process very enjoyable for me and for everyone. She was even able to put some makeup on my teenage boy cousins without them feeing weird about it. She was so professional and cool You won't find someone else who is as talented and sweet as Sheree! I plan to go back to Sheree to get my makeup done for any future events. read more

Sheree is the best. I hired her to do my hair and makeup for my wedding in addition to my bridesmaids' hair and makeup. She did an outstanding job and was able to handle everyone's requests and personalities like a true professional. I've been going to Sheree to do my hair ever since--even 6 years later and she is a wonderful stylist and person. She gets my highest recommendation. read more

I found Lips and Locks as part of the Formosi package, and I couldn't be happier with out my cut turned out! I am normally pretty apprehensive about who I let cut my hair (especially when I was having a ton taken off), but she was so professional and really listened to what I wanted. She was so awesome and super easy to talk to. I really appreciated her suggestions for how to get the most out of my new style. I have already recommended her to all of my friends! read more

Sheree is amazing! I not only got a great look during my visit, but I learned so much about how to take better care of my hair. She is so personal, it really makes you feel like you are just having a spa day with one of your girlfriends. I look forward to going back to her in the future for all my hair care needs! read more

I have been going to Sheree for about 5 years. I'm a blonde so it is really important for me to go to someone who knows what they are doing and who will give me a natural look. I have people all the time complimenting me on my haircut and color. She does a fantastic job, is always on-time and suggests new looks and styles for me that always look good. Don't waste your time on anyone else. Calll Sheree up now! read more

My daughter was married two months ago and our wedding coordinator suggested that we use Sheree for hair and make-up for our 11 women. It was a tall order but Sheree was not phased at all. She is a true professional. I felt a bit intimidated to have my hair and make-up done by someone with such a long list of credits and yet meeting Sheree put me totally at ease. All of us, moms, bride, and bridesmaids looked wonderful and had a fabulous time with Sheree. She couldn't do enough to make us feel beautiful and saying goodbye to her was like saying goodbye to a trusted friend. Sheree came to the wedding suite to style everyone and then followed to the wedding to do touch ups. I kept thinking, "we are so lucky to have found you" and I would suggest that anyone planning a special event go to Sheree. She will not disappoint you. She is talented, experienced, down to earth and so kind. Her shop, where my daughter and I had a trial run hair style done a week before the wedding, is very stylish and comfortable to be in. read more

Sheree is amazing! She did my make up AND hair for two consecutive days of wedding ceremonies. I am a pretty high-maintenance banker from London (grew up in LA) and her credentials in the fashion world definitely stack up. She made my short bob look shoulder-length and my make-up flawless without barely a touch-up on my wedding day. (And this after I burst out in tears during the ceremony.) I think the best part of working with Sheree is her friendly and calming presence. The whole getting-ready time with my mom and maid of honor felt just like hanging out with friends. And did I mention that she made my 70-something mom look 20 years younger? If you don't believe any of this, please feel free to ask Sheree for my personal contact details and I would be happy to speak with you. read more

Sheree is so talented! She knows her craft! I loved the makeup and hair she's done for many of our photo shoots and parties I had to go to:) read more

Where do I start? Sheree is fantastic hair stylist. I've been to so many salons and was never really all that happy...some too stuffy, some too inflexible, most produced lackluster results with huge price tags...until I met Sheree Pouls. I had an amazing experience with Sheree doing my hair. She instantly makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. The results have been spot on with my expectations. She really loves what she does and it's her passion. read more

I've been a client of Sheree's for 6 years and I am so thankful to have found her. I'm a blonde and it's important to me that my hair looks natural. She manages to do that even when we make it darker blonde or lighter blonde. I've come to trust her so much that, when she asks 'What are we doing today in terms of cut and color' my typical response is 'Surprise me' or 'Whatever you think.' It's always a great result and my husband's constant 'thumbs up' is the best sign of that! She's also been able to manage my hair through 2 pregnancies when my doctor wanted no highlights - that's a difficult task to keep it looking fresh while roots are growing in! She's a pleasure to get to know and a true artist in her profession. I travel and hour to and from her because she's worth it. read more

Sheree is fabulous! She did all the hair and make up for my daughter's wedding this past weekend. She's friendly, calm and professional. She explains everything she's doing along the way and why. She made sure that we would all look in photographs, from up close to far away, while taking into account the particular lighting of the day. Her assistant was just as good. We got compliments all day and night on our hair and makeup. She's so good we're even considering flying her out to the east coast for another daughter's wedding in May! read more

This lady is outstanding!!!! Personality plus, a perpetual smile on her face, a constant perfectionist and total artist.... a definite cut far above the rest!! I am awed by her ability to choose make up and style hair according to the person she is working with. They always leave looking the absolute most beautiful yet natural that they possibly can. Exceptional talent plus :) read more
