LOOPS Hair Studio - Yuko Japanese Straightened Hair - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I had my first Keratin treatment in this salon. Super smooth and good services Price are also friendly read more

I found this through Yelp and I'm glad that I decided to try it out. It's located on the 2nd floor in the same plaza as Daiso. I had an appointment with Kyoko. I showed her a picture of an asymmetric cut that I wanted and two options for bangs. She helped me choose blunt bangs, and I'm really happy with that choice. I love the cut! And a few months later, it has grown out quite nicely. She also explained to me that she cut the inner layer a bit shorter so that my hair would lay flat rather than poof out at the bottom. Her English isn't that good, but I'm glad that I showed her the pictures, as that made it easier to communicate and ensure that I got the haircut that I wanted. read more

Excellent place for hair cut, Japanese straightening, hair treatment, and lash lift / eyelash perm! I can't say enough good things about their friendly and attentive service, cleanliness, and attention to detail. It's located in a busy plaza with ample parking. At the peak of COVID, they were doing temperature checks, hand sanitizers, and very strict crowd control. I've had many stylists before moving to LA, and some were okay while others often double book or upsell treatments. Marina at Loops Hair Studio is the best stylist I've had by far, and I'm so lucky to have found her! She is very professional, positive, and detail-oriented, and you can count on her to give her best effort and do what's best for you. read more

Have been coming here to see Noriko since 2019 and love everything about her and this space. Noriko is super detail oriented, takes very good care of your hair and listens to your thoughts closely. I've enjoyed every haircut I had with her and highly recommend her! The space is very clean and bright, and they keep the main doors open for air flow, which is reassuring to me as I still wear masks and stay safe. Can't recommend this place enough! read more

I waited so long for my review for this place but here I am MARINA was her name this "stylist" gave me a horrible experience in any salon I've ever been. I called the salon and asked for someone with experience with my curly hair and was recommended to go with her she chopped my hair so bad I couldn't grow it in almost a year my hair was long! Long and even though I asked for a trim, a trim means a trim. I was blunted speechless the whole time hoping to see good results and when she finished my hair was not only short but even more frizzy than the usual I asked her if she can smooth it out and her answer was "that's as far as your hair can go" I was again speechless! I couldn't react or say much I was in shock I really hate her for the next 3 months every time I see my self in the mirror I would see her face in it! Her name got stuck with me that I never gonna forget this experience. When I try to talk to her about it she said I need an appointment to see her and tried to give me on in 3 weeks or so. I hope that never happens to anyone out hair is everything for us as a women and for someone not listening to our need it's just no caring enough for your job! read more

Marina at LOOPS is my go to stylist. I did my very first Japanese Thermal Conditioning (straightening) with her a couple years ago and have gone back every 7-9 months for touch ups. Marina is very attentive to detail and takes her time with me for every visit. Compared to other Japanese salons, the prices here are reasonable and the place is always very clean and welcoming. read more

I recently moved to LA from San Diego and was on the hunt for a new hair dresser and I'm so glad that I found LOOPS! I called them first thing on Saturday morning and was able to secure an appointment for early that afternoon. My hair dresser Toshie was amazing! She gave me the exact style of the photos that I showed her (long layers) without taking off too much length since my hair is on the thinner side. My hair feels really light and healthy now. Thank you Toshie! I'm so glad to have found my new hair home in LA on my first try :) read more

I went to Loops to see Ken, who was recommended by my entire family. Apparently he has been cutting my mom's, sister's and aunts' hair for a while! Ken did an amazing job of re-transforming my hair. I had grown it out the past 18 months to donate to charity to help make a wig for those who need it. Ken is very meticulous and thorough. I definitely trust his expertise and recommendations for changing up a hair style I haven't had before. Now I'm ready for my sister's wedding this weekend ! read more

I just got my Japanese hair straightening done by Toshie today. She is absolutely wonderful and she really took her time to make my hair look great! The process takes about 3-4 hours but I love how talkative she is therefore it didn't feel like it took so long. She did an amazing job and I highly recommend her for the Japanese straightening I did. She also was so sweet to help me trim the unhealthy hair I had at the bottom. I have pretty long hair but they charge a super reasonable price for it! Actually it's really a good deal here. read more

Ken is so amazing!! I called a million places looking for someone that could do Japanese straightening on my previously bleached hair. Ken was the only person who said he could do it and it came out amazingly! He also walked me through the best techniques to care for it which I really appreciated. It was a bit pricey but if you struggle with frizzy or curly hair you know that having the hours you have to spend on it back is priceless!! read more

Honestly the worst haircut I've had in 15 years. Ken did not ask enough questions nor did he take his time. No side trims or careful inspections. The guy was just all cut cut cut. I don't think he understands how to work with customers. I'd give negative stars if I could. read more

Check out my before and after pics by Marina. She did an amazing job going from dried, dull, curly hair to beautiful, straight, shiny, healthy looking hair. I would highly recommend anyone that is looking to do a Japanese Hair Straightening Treatment to come and see Marina. She is not only professional she is kind and sweet and very good at what she does. Compare to other places I've been to she not only has good reviews but she also is reasonable with her prices. Others were charging $450++ to start. Don't look anywhere else. read more

This is the best hair cut I've ever had in my life. Noriko understood my hair, and also knew how to style it. I can't say enough about how pleased I am. For reference: I have mostly straight hair with a very mild wave in some places, some odd cowlicks, that is very thick but fine and needs to be properly shaped. She knew how to thin and texturize it perfectly into a very chic bob. I am super picky with hair stylists so I am absolutely delighted after my cut. The salon is very nice as well. read more

I went to Loops Hair Studio to get the Yuko hair straightening treatment by Ken & I loved the entire experience! I had never gotten my hair professionally worked on and I'm glad my first time was there, the place is so nice inside, it feels very homey & comfortable! I called the Studio to get more info on the treatment and they gave me Ken's number who I texted back and forth till we set an appointment. He was really nice and professional and answered any questions I had over text messages or call before I actually went in for the treatment. When I went in I was greeted by Ken & then he got straight to work on my hair after giving me a little more info on what he was about to do, he's super friendly and easy to talk to which is key when working on someone's hair for 4+ hours. They also have free wifi for customers which is always a plus! I think my hair looks great, I have yet to wash it and see how it holds up but I'm hoping it will remain the same until I need a touch-up. The only thing I wish they did was post the prices online or estimates at least. I saw someone post a picture of a sign they used to have outside with prices and that was what I was basing myself off of. The old prices for the Yuko hair treatment were lower which is understandable since nearly everything has gone up the past couple of years but it has gone up a significant amount, for a broke college student as myself it's pretty hard to come up with that type of money but I managed and I'm really glad I did! I highly recommend!!!!! Thanks Ken! read more

I got an amazing digital perm with Toshie. It's just the right amount of waves and curls. Toshie was able to assess what I wanted between various pictures and my random hand gestures. I gotten perms at Carlton for waves which gave me tight waves (not going for that!) when I really wanted loose beach waves. Toshie is a sweetheart and I highly recommend anyone who is thinking about getting a perm for waves to see her! read more

One of the best salon I have been to! Chizuru-San was patient, skilful, and she is one of the nicest stylist I have met! She listens to your ideas and discusses with you to find the best hairstyle that suits and complements your overall look! I got so many compliments! And people have been asking where I got my hair cut!! Highly recommend! read more

I've been going to taka hair salon since 2013 and they're great but the last couple of times I was left a little disappointed especially since their prices have gone up a good amount for a haircut. I decided to look for a new place and discovered loops while eating at curry house. Appt was easy; I was able to go in the next day. Noriko is awesome and so nice and takes time on your hair. I chopped off my mop and decided to go with a bob cut. It feels so much lighter and healthier. Definitely recommend this place. There doesn't seem to be a lot of traffic so I hope this place picks up soon. It's only been open for 7 months. This is my new go-to place. 65$ for a women's haircut. Thanks noriko-san ! read more

My favorite hair salon is here LOOPS! Toshie has been taking care of my hair for years, and I absolutely love it! The place is very cozy as you can see from my pictures and of course everyone is very friendly! Today, I had a hair cut, highlight, digital (?) perm, and my hair looks amazing! I really liked my perm hair, I needed volume and a little bit of wavy hair as my hair is straight and flat... And Toshie knows I am lazy taking care of my hair :) I do not need to use gel or hair cream to make this hair, and it is effortless and very playful. Thank you so much Toshie! read more

I came in to see Noriko-san after seeing her cut my boyfriends hair for the past few months. I made an appointment with her directly through her cell number and she was so kind and sweet! I wanted to cut my hair to shoulder length or shorter after having long hair for years and came in a little bit nervous. I showed her a few pictures I saved on Pinterest and Noriko-san kindly suggested that a slightly longer cut would be better for my face shape, so I obliged. I'm glad that I listened, because it looks fabulous! I have thick wavy hair that always felt heavy and made me sweat, but now I feel so light and ready for summer! She washed my hair beforehand, styled my hair after, and gave me suggestions on how to style my hair according to my comfort level, which is with the least amount of effort hehe She really knows her business, and I would recommend her to everyone who wants to trust their hair to a skilled professional. read more

Ken has been my stylist for the last 5 years. I have extremely thick hair and he is the only person that I have found in Los Angeles that can provide a consistently amazing haircut. Recently he also colored my mom's hair when she visited and she is so pleased that she plans on going back to him the next time she comes to LA. He is such a pleasure to talk to and always provides great hair advice. I highly recommend Ken--he is great at what he does. The salon itself is lovely--very bright and clean. Overall a great place to go for a relaxing experience. read more

After a haircut snafu, I was in dire need to find someone to cut my hair. I called LOOPS Hair Studio and I was able to come in the same day. After I explained the disaster, Kyoko cut my hair and she did wonders! She truly listened to me and I cannot believe how she was able to transform my hair. The service was excellent too. I'm so glad I found Kyoko and LOOPS Hair Studio! read more

LOOPS Hair Studio - Kyoko's fabulous haircut. She was a lifesaver! - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I came here for a simple haircut as my hair was getting super long and very voluminous. My hair stylist was very patient with me and cared about my hair condition. She tried to go by the style I asked for and result turned out to be as expected. I would say she went a bit ham on it but I am still happy about it. The stylists here are mostly Japanese with certificates/license from Japan. They are more detailed with handling your hair compared to American hair salons. Also I really like the layout and design of the store. I would probably come here again as it is cheaper than the other Japanese hair salons. My cut (women with semi-long hair) was about 65 dollars without tip. read more

I've been going to Loops for the Yuko hair straightening with Ken since 2018 and this is my go-to salon! I moved away from LA and still make the drive to see him. Excellent service, very professional and so so happy with my hair. I will continue to be a client! In terms of cleanliness the salon is spotless, very clean and I feel safe coming here during Covid (have been twice since the pandemic started). read more

I am very happy with how my hair came out. I am an extremely picky customer especially about my hair and it's hard to find a good stylist but almost every single time I get a good haircut or style. My stylist Marina always gets weird requests from me and she honestly knows exactly what I am looking for regardless of my lack of explanation and it always comes out better than I was expecting. I know this is true because the next day I am happier about the result then right after when I got the cut originally which is a true testament to the stylist's abilities. read more

After several bad experiences over the year I was nervous about getting my hair coloring. I decided to give LOOPS hair Studio a try after a recommendation from a family member and I was not disappointed. I was made to feel really welcome. Excellent service! I really felt that Toshie knew exactly what she was doing, at all time attentive with Japanese hospitality and professional. She has many years of experience in both country. Lovely atmosphere in the salon and everyone was smiley and friendly. Toshie was absolutely amazing. Made me fell really comfortable. I'm very happy with the color. Definitely I will go back! I highly recommend this place! read more

I called a few places in my local area to book an appointment, I was disappointed when they refused to braid men's hair.

Beautiful, clean space. They use top of the line Japanese and German hair care products. Ken has been my stylist for years. Never disappoints and loves to work with me to come up with new styles. He's always cognizant of what styles will fit my face. Parking is available in then plaza it's located in. Speaking of location... SAWTELLE! So much delicious food and shopping. read more

Toshie has been my hair person for a long time. Very Reliable. Usually I don't know what to do with my hair, but she keeps it nice for me. She is good with small kids too. Also, I can go shopping at Nijiya after the hair cut. read more

I was looking for a new hair stylist and remember a friend recommending LOOPS a few months back. I easily made an appointment over text and was planning on getting a 2-3 inch trim of my below-shoulder-length hair. After a quick assessment, the friendly and kind Noriko suggested adding face framing layers to my hair for fuller volume, which is something I am always looking for as I have fine hair. She took great care at the shampoo bowl and proceeded to cut my hair with precision. Noriko took the time to explain the best way to blow dry and style my hair based on its texture and length. I was really happy with the cut and styling and will definitely be going back to see her. The salon is clean, affordable, and very convenient for Westsiders. read more

I love Loops hair studio, they provide a great service and relaxing experience. I recommend Marina for hair color, bleating and haircut!!!

So happy this place is open! I have been a long-time customer of Toshie Nakayama. When I moved to LA 7 years ago, I struggled to find a stylist that could cut my hair the way I needed it. After a few failed and overpriced cuts at places in the area, I found Toshie. She provides precision cuts and impeccable service. I always feel comfortable and relaxed in her chair and she gives me an extra little flair if she knows I'm going out afterwards. I always get compliments. Formerly of Du Japon, she decided to venture out with another stylist to open this new shop. She also does a great job on men's hair. Prices are more than reasonable. It's tough to find a good stylist, ladies. Look no further. My husband refuses to go anywhere else and so do I! Highly recommended for anyone on the Westside. read more
