    My whole experience with Marium is honestly laughable and a little sad at the same time. The fact that someone conducts themselves and their business this way makes me feel bad for her, because she clearly doesn't know how good she can be in life. My first appointment with her went smoothly. The next one was at 5 am when I got there she wasn't there so I texted and called and email and at 5:30 she text me back saying GPS says she would be there at 6:45. Clearly she just woke up, she lives in long beach and works in Inglewood so there the math. But ya know an hour late whatever fine. The second time my mom came in town for thanksgiving and wanted her hair done,i did however make my moms appointment 1 month in advance. Anyway,SHE WAS 5 HOURS LATE! My mom only here for three days and one whole day was dedicated to Marium and her lackadaisical sense of anyone else's existence. Call me crazy... I booked her again, today. Idk I just gave her excuses like "oh shes a single mom" or "oh shes not wound too tight". So yes, i text her last night to follow up but no answer and i wasn't surprised last time I followed up and she DID answer she was 5 hours late. Anyway.... I pull up to the salon.... i text her that im here. GREEN BIT*H The text was green. Call her phone off Text again green Sent an email Wait 30 minutes Leave. This is fraud in all ways and the fact that Mane Experience still allows her to rent space is deplorable. So I hope she got what she needed with the down payment for her non work. Because the bank will be taken that shit right back out.

    Full head weave hair purchase by Miss Vernel and installation done by Miss Vernel! Beautiful curls!!!

    OK where do I start???? I've been going to Miss Vernell for like a year now. I totally have to say that currently my hair is extremely healthy....more healthy then its been in years. Now I have to say Miss Vernell is phenomenal in both weaves and natural hair. I had a weave for about a year and when I took my hair out, my natural hair was beautiful and down my back. Miss Vernel is also excellent in hair care. If she feels your hair isn't ready for color, then she would offer another alternative such as cellophane or colored pieces to add until your natural hair is ready. In regards to the shop itself, its beautiful!!! She has decorated her shop with a nice spa feel. Especially when she offers Mimosas or Coffee and surround sound music playing!! I WOULDNT LET A SOUL touch my hair EVER except her!! Trust u would be happy you chose Miss Vernell to make you beautiful!!

    I just moved to LA and had no idea where to go for a weave. Miss Vernell had the best ratings on Yelp that I could find (AND at a reasonable price), so I decided to take the leap. I was not disappointed!! This is the best weave installation that I have had yet, and I could tell she really cared about the quality of her work on my hair. I'm also newly natural and she gave me great advice about taking care of my hair. I'm glad my search for a stylist in LA is over. Go to Miss Vernell!

    Great atmosphere... Miss. Vernell is awesome. She will have your hair beautiful. She really cares about your hair and encourages healthy hair. Go see her!

    I first started going to Vernell when I was 18.my hair was sooo damaged and ever since she's laid her hands on my hair it has GROWN!its so long and healthy now.she always keeps the vibe right in her shop and I never leave her chair unsatisfied.i don't even have a single thought of anyone else pressing my hair or installing a weave because Vernell always goes above and beyond doing my hair

    Full head weave with top and sides left out. Self-purchased Peruvian deep wave in 12, 14, and 16. All over copper red color.

But when he asked me what hair cut I wanted and showed him a picture of a burst fade Mohawk and he proceeded to ask have you had this haircut before. Then I showed him a picture of me with the haircut I wanted (which was a burst fade Mohawk) and he proceeded to say "is that really you". This was at the beginning of the hair cut. Mid way he asked a second time if I had ever had this hair cut before which I answered yes. Also at the beginning he had mentioned how much are we taking off the top. I mentioned just a little bit and we can work our way down. When it came to cutting the top I feel he had gone too low. At that point I just wanted to get out of the chair. I waited 2 days to post this just to see if my hair needed to settle in since I went from a wild lions mane to what ever this short hair cut I have now. But no matter how much I attempt to style my hair it just looks dumb. My feedback to Hin is if you aren't confident in cutting someone's hair then please just say so. Or if your specialty is clean cuts then tell your client so they can make the decision of sitting in the chair. I may come back to try with someone else to cut my hair since I feel the people here have some skill.

At my appointment, Kaz started with a wash and then spent a solid 40-60 minutes on the cut. He's super detailed. It felt like he was paying attention to every single strand. I love how it turned out.!!! After washing, my hair just falls into place naturally. I barely have to style it...just brush and go.

Yuji was my hairdresser, and he was so kind, precise, and skilled with my haircut. When I first walked in, I thought, "ah this really is a no frills hair salon," and I'll admit I was a little nervous since it was my first time and I didn't know what to expect. As soon as I sat down, my nerves went away. Yuji was so gentle and attentive, and I felt really well taken care of. My appointment lasted about an hour and included a wash and cut. Parking is validated for up to two hours, which is definitely enough time. I was so happy with my results. I truly don't know how Yuji creates such magic with his hands! I'll be coming here from now on for my haircuts. Please show Yuji and Hair Craft your support by leaving a generous tip. An establishment like this that truly gives you high quality results for such a generous price deserves to be met with gratitude and good tips. Too many salons are charging an arm and a leg for a basic trim these days, and Hair Craft is not one of them. There were only 1-2 stylists working during my visit, so please be patient and make sure to book at least three weeks in advance. When I booked, they were already scheduled out for three weeks, and I overheard them telling other callers the same thing. Thankfully, it was absolutely worth the wait. I can't wait to come back and will definitely be booking with Yuji again. Thank you Hair Craft for such a wonderful experience!!!

Kyunghee took the time to listen to what I wanted. I asked for curtain bangs and long layers, and she absolutely delivered. The cut was exactly to my liking--soft, flattering, and very well balanced.

As a working mom, I honestly don't have time to do my hair and most days it ends up in a ponytail or bun. She completely understood what I wanted and recommended a number of good options.

What was supposed to be about a hour long haircut turned into almost three hour appointment and she stayed late to make sure everything was done perfectly. I was so grateful for that.

It was my very first time with The Hideout Salon and not only was he understanding of any scheduling rearrangements we had to make, he also made sure to make it a point that we would be setting enough time aside for what we would anticipate needing so that when the time came, there would be zero rush along with top quality service which makes a huge difference in customer experience compared to factory booking which sacrifices quality, time, and attentiveness for squeezing in numbers, and as clients we all greatly appreciate this! While I was waiting Allie was very sweet and settled me in/welcomed me and offered me something to drink. The decor of the place felt very cozy and cute. If youre a dog lover you'll also be very happy to probably see a friendly cute Lil doggo named Carl (Karl?) comfortably shimmying his way around the shop (and if youre scared of dogs dont worry, he really just does his own thing Lol). Hes So darn cute and floofy. I came in for both a color and a consultation for a potential cut. Because I sometimes tend to notice/look at details that others may want to gloss over or perceive as me overanalyzing, it felt really difficult for me to explain to others how my recent haircut from another place just a month or two ago had specific lengths and cuts in specific areas going around my whole hair that had left my previous haircut feeling kind of "off" in certain ways and that I felt was giving my hair the very slight illusion of looking shorter than it actually really was and a little "choppy" in some areas, which then had an effect on how it framed my face/widened it instead of helping elongate it. But when I explained it to Daniel, he totally got it and even held up the individual sections that he agreed were causing those effects, why it was creating the effect that it was and how we would resolve it. I was so happy that he not only truly acknowledges and makes it important to understand where his clients are coming from (whether its concerns or goals etc) but that he also has such skill and knowledge to be able to fully do so and hit the nails right on the head. The color was also beautiful as well and because I wanted something that was healthier than permanent that would also give my hair a healthier appearance (ie shine, softness, gloss etc) he recommended the demi and also mentioned that it would make it easier down the road for me to go lighter if I ever wanted to. The color blended and matched so well with the rest of my hair and everything from the cut to the color made me feel like all of my goals were achieved. Everything Daniel did with my hair left me feeling so *Bonita*, and he was just such a joy to work with and an awesome person all around. Thank you Daniel for this lovely experience :) -------------------------------- Parking: Since the salon is in the heart of Downtown, its best to try and arrive a bit earlier than your appointment time and to be prepared for alot of one way streets and quickly turning into the available open public parking lots closeby before passing the salon (to avoid having to go further down in a circle to get back to the parking again). I believe there are 2 or 3 lots before you pull up to the salon that have big signs that say public parking. If youre driving towards the direction of the salon, out of the 3 the first one youll pass is just self-service/pay which was the one I parked in, and the other two have attendants as you pull up to the salon. Im not sure if both of those allow open access to all, so i will find out the next time I go again :) The front of the salon itself can be very easy to miss so just make sure to park before you even pass it on your GPS and youll see a small little sign over a door that says the Hideout salon when you walk up. There will be a door code for you to enter so just ask the salon for the door code in advance so that youre all set to go when you get there as well :)

It's a gorgeous setting and the entire team is incredibly warm and welcoming. Service: Daniel Apodaca is an exceptional talent. I went in for a brunette colour correction that took almost five hours, and every single minute was worth it. I trusted his judgement, his suggestions, and his overall vision for my hair, and I'm so glad I did. This is the first time in my life I've walked out of a hair appointment with my expectations truly exceeded. I left The Hideout completely blown away by the results and didn't feel the need to tweak, adjust, or "fix" anything afterward, which is rare. Even the blow-dry/silk press combo lasted a full week. Daniel is kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely lovely to spend time with. I've absolutely found my stylist and will 100% be back.
