I've been going to Planet Salon for years, and I can't recommend them enough. Ginger has been cutting my hair for years, and Laura does my color. Dream team! They are both incredibly talented and consistently make my hair look its absolute best! Over the years, I've changed my cut and color so many times and each time it's better than I could have imagined! Currently my hair is long and layered and the most beautiful blonde! The experience is luxurious from start to finish. Every appointment includes thoughtful touches like hand massages, neck massages, and the most relaxing scalp massage while your hair is being washed. It's more than just a salon appointment, it's time to unwind and leave feeling refreshed and beautiful. The biggest compliment I can give them is that people regularly stop me on the street to ask who does my hair. Isn't that what we all hope for? Ginger and Laura truly know how to create beautiful, healthy hair, and their attention to detail and expertise are unmatched. If you're looking for exceptional stylists and an experience that feels like a treat every single time, Planet Salon is the place to go. Five stars, without hesitation! read more

Excellent experience from check in, cut, shampoo and style to checkout. Top Notch!! Everyone was amazing and my haircut from Kayla was amazing!! Highly recommend Planet Salon and Kayla!! 10 out of 10!! Thanks so much! read more

I was referred to Erin by a friend many, many years ago. Im super picky about my blonde hair, (my friend more-so), but she told me Erin was the ONLY person she would let touch her hair so I gave her a shot. She has now been doing my hair ever since. Erin is always so friendly and sweet and my hair comes out better and better each time. I have seen some of the work she has done in different competitions she's won all over the US and am astonished at how she does what she does! She is truly brilliant at color. Any color, but blondes especially. It seems like she's always going to trainings to stay up on the latest trends and I believe she was even a teacher for a while for Aveda. Anywho - simply put, Erin is THE BEST! read more

Planet Salon - What I left with. Fabulously gorgeous hair! Thanks to ERIN!!!!!! - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I can't say enough good things about my hair colorist, Erin Blume! I came to her as a mousy dirty blonde dreaming of becoming a fiery redhead and when making such a big change, I knew I needed someone at the top of their game. As an Aveda expert, Erin immediately stood out, and when I met her, it was an instant click: Plus we're both rescue dog moms and Pisces. Not only is she an absolute delight to sit with in the chair, but her work speaks for itself. My hair turned out better than I ever could have dreamed. It's a rich, natural-looking red that gets me compliments constantly. And unlike other stylists I've seen, she worked her magic without it taking all day. She may be known for being a specialist for the blondies, but she totally nailed the red I wanted. She also guided me to the right products to keep my color vibrant between touch-ups. Every visit with Erin is a joy (bonus points for always being so sweet to my pups too). If you're thinking of a big color change, go see Erin. She's simply the best! read more

Planet Salon - Hair transformation - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My mom and I were new clients here yesterday. She had David and I had Kayla. Both were consummate professionals!! We previously went to the same lady who has been screwing up our hair for a bit. But we didn't really realize how much until these two fixed our hair and made us beautiful again. They both did our colors and cut/style. We walked out so happy after booking our next visit! read more

By far one of the best salon experiences I've had in a long time. Kayla took care of my hair service and delivered a stunning balayage. Before starting, she asked all the right questions, clearly explained the process, and was transparent about pricing upfront, which I really appreciated. On top of that, she made the entire experience enjoyable and comfortable. I would highly recommend both Kayla and this salon. read more

I've been seeing Erin at Planet Salon for almost five years, and I truly wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair! She's an incredible colorist and works absolute magic with the latest extension techniques to create a fuller, natural look. Not only is she insanely talented, but she's also a joy to be around--fun, warm, and always up on the latest trends. Erin is also amazing about finding time to squeeze you in, which makes booking so convenient, even with a busy schedule. And as a bonus, the rooftop patio at Planet Salon is a hidden gem--there's truly no better place to sit while your color processes (so peaceful!). Just look at my before-and-after photos from a single appointment! read more

I highly recommend Kayla at Planet Salon! I see her regularly for cut and color -- she is incredibly kind, honest, consistent and always runs on time! Whether I'm just getting my roots done or doing highlights/lowlights, I always leave happy! She gives me great tips for keeping my hair healthy and I've seen the quality of my hair improve since seeing her! Affordable prices, easy street parking and great company -- what more can you ask for!? read more

I'm SO happy I found this place! I will be sending every single person I know here. This evening, I discovered what top tier service truly feels like, and I'm sincerely grateful for the kindness and generosity I received from Sam and Elizi (hope I'm spelling her name right!). I had a horrible experience at another salon called Society in weho that turned me away for being 4 mins late due to traffic on Melrose and the parking meter taking longer than expected. I was still 10 mins early before 6pm - the time of my appt - make it make sense) Sam and Elizi turned my evening completely around and graciously took me in, and I believe I was meant to come here all along. What a night and day difference. Sam took his time to educate me on how to style my hair wavy, what product would work best - not one aspect felt rushed! I felt so taken care of and I felt their compassion and empathy with the situation I went through. I absolutely love my new haircut and will always remember how welcoming and positive my first experience was. Thank you thank you thank you. read more

Julia salvaged my short hair dilemma! We walked through solutions and a food hair growth plan. Bob girlies, Julia is your girl!

This is my mom's favorite salon. She's an ex runway fashion model so very particular. They do great color, and her hair is always perfection when she leaves this salon. read more

Erin is the absolute best colorist in LA! Whether you're looking for blonde, brunette, red, black or fashion colors, Erin will give you the best service tailored to your individual needs. She is not only a master colorist, but also an educator that truly understands how to give you the best color possible. Her extensions and blowouts are also top notch. I always leave her chair looking and feeling my best. read more

My favorite place to get my haircut! Elle is a great person and hairstylist and I love getting my haircut from her!

Joelle = best haircut of my life!!! I love dying my hair and often neglect trimming it or really taking care of it. Through many recs, I decided to see Joelle. Thank goodness I did... Why I love Joelle: -she first asked what I wanted -she walked me through exactly how she planned to cut it and pointed out where the pieces were truly dead and where there was opportunity to add layer so it wouldn't be less flat in the back -she recommended a filtered shower head for me to help protect my hair -she then explained how hair grows, why my hair wasn't growing as fast as I would have liked, and provided personalized suggestions to support my hair health. Essentially, I learned a ton, had a great time and walked out looking fresh as hell :) read more

Planet Salon - haircut by Joelle (a few days after, apologies for it being a bit messy) - notice the amazing layers! - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I am really bummed to have to leave Planet Salon a negative review after a decade+ of coming here (see my previous rave reviews!). I still think they have great stylists, but the customer service has dropped so drastically in the last couple years that it's not worth it to keep coming back. I recently tried to book an appointment for a cut and color, and was told by Victor at the front desk that he couldn't book me, my stylist Sam would call me, and then an immediate disconnected line. Weird, but okay. Sam did call me back that evening, and told me that since I'd placed a credit card chargeback on my previous charge (a fee for an appointment I had to cancel list minute), they could no longer see me as a client. I had no idea what he was talking about, since I'd not only paid that late fee but had even had a full conversation with the front desk when I was canceling to please charge the cancellation fee, since my colorist had already waived it for me one other time the year prior. Sam said he'd look into what happened, and I said I'd do the same - I've been at the same salon for more than 10 years with zero issue, there is no benefit to me trying to cheat a business that I go to regularly. When I asked Sam why no one called me to let me know there was an issue, he said the salon policy was just to drop clients if they issue chargebacks. Again, I've been coming here for over a decade, stuck with Planet even after my stylists moved away, and referred business to them. A quick phone call - even an accusatory one! - could have cleared this up right away. Sam said he'd call me back after researching more, but the whole thing left such a sour taste in my mouth about being treated like a criminal by Victor, and the lack of communication from the salon itself, that I decided to move on. If this was the first issue, I would have worked with them to resolve it, but there have been similar communication issues with the front desk in the past and it's just not worth it to pay this much money and be treated like a grifter. I will say that I had zero issues with my stylist and colorist (Sam and Heather), who are kind, professional, and extremely talented. read more

Amazing experience getting a haircut with David! He gave such thoughtful input on everything and didn't rush the process. I trusted his recs and left with the best haircut I've had in a long long time. I will be coming back! read more

I've been coming to this place for years. My blonde hair is not easy to work with and I am not that nice person who is easily pleased. Plus the language barrier often creates difficulties to understand exactly what I want. Samer is truly a fantastic hair stylist, he realized what I wanted just in seconds. Perfect blonder color. And his massage takes me into space...magic hands! read more

10 Stars! ******! Just received the most fantastic cut and color by Elle!! . This is the first time I have ever gotten my hair styled from a non black salon! I wanted to try something different and Elle exceeded my expectation! Here's my take on the entire experience. 1. Front desk person who greeted me is wonderful, personable and very knowledgeable about the stylist and product. I will now be switching to Aveda products because of the information and time the Front Desk guy took to explain! He also set up my appt! He represents the face of the salon really really well. 2. My stylist Elle! Kind, friendly and really took the time to understand my hair vision. I'm so happy with the results words just can't express fully! Linda read more

The BEST haircut of my life with Anya. Like WOW. She is absolutely brilliant. I have had so many haircuts over the years but she spent TWO hours making my cut perfect. She's a genius with so much experience. I am going back to her for color and I cannot wait. If you're looking for a new stylist/colorist I highly recommend Anya. read more

The Very Best! Always coming out of the salon feeling GREAT!!! Thank you for always listening. read more

Sher is the coolest hair stylist I have ever had. She has cut and colored my hair at least 4 times over the past year, at one point red! These days we are focusing on making me blonder and blonder. I especially love the texture she gives my hair. Everyone is friendly at this salon. I have felt very intimidated in salons before but this one is much more chill. A chill vibe is hard to find in this area. There is a beautiful roof patio and I love looking at the view of the hills while getting my hair washed! Thank you! read more

Planet Salon - Red by Sher - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

LOVE Samer Hamayel! He is a very skilled hair colorist and I absolutely love the precision and care with which he executes your hair vision and goals. My hair looked better than I had imagined it would and I have thick long black hair to start with. He has been very consistent as I have had three sessions with him and have always left feeling great! I also love that he goes above and beyond to style my hair and does not ever tire of getting everything perfectly in place. LOVE the complimentary hand massages, the rest of the staff and front desk folks! The owner is such a great woman and has always been so polite and welcoming. I always fit in here and I will keep coming back!! read more

Planet Salon saved me because I was literally walking out of another salon, disappointed in my haircut and overcharged. I wandered across Planet Salon and told them my story. They were like, "We can help, and we can fix your haircut." They charged me appropriately based on just the quick trim/fix they were going to give me. They saved the day! read more

It took me 3 years of living in LA before I finally found "my" salon. With all the competition around LA, especially West Hollywood, finding a place that suited my taste proved to be much more difficult than expected. My experience at Planet Salon has been nothing but personalized, inviting and caring from the very beginning. Sher is without a doubt the best stylist I have ever worked with. She takes her time to listen to me and understand what I am looking for and will make sure to check in and ask questions throughout the entire process. I've never been able to trust a stylist before I met Sher, so much so that nowadays I let her play around with what she thinks would look good on me and I end up loving it every time! Thank you Planet Salon for giving me a place where I can feel comfortable and know I will come out looking and feeling beautiful every time. read more

As a relative newbie to LA, I'm so happy to have found the perfect salon. I've always loved an Aveda salon, so I did my research and chose Planet Salon. I'm so happy I did! I love Aveda products and service, but what I really keep coming back for is the amazing Sher!! I tell everyone who will listen that Sher gave me the best cut of my life last year. She was able to give me exactly what I'd been envisioning for years, but didn't quite know how to articulate. She is such a great listener, so kind and collaborative, and really took her time to explain how to care for and style my new hair. The salon itself is clean, modern, and beautiful. Every staff member is super sweet and helpful. Lots of metered parking nearby, and it's on Melrose, so you can walk up and down and visit all the fun vintage shops while showing off your new hair. read more

I am actually so disappointed in the amount of money I spent for a brassy Orange hair color and dried up hair. Wanted a balayage with highlights and it ended up straight up flat orange. I was told it was the only option if I wanted to lighten my hair from brown to blonde/beige but I've had this done many times and this just isn't true! I also asked for an A line cut and the stylist cut it straight across. I had beautiful long hair and was not expecting her to chop half of it off (she said majority was dead). Everyone has been asking why they messed my hair up so bad and why I didn't say anything at the time, but I just didn't want to be rude after hours of her work. The stylist seemed extremely distracted with her personal life and I just went along with it. Definitely regret and will need to go to Aveda to have the color corrected next time. Spent crazy amount of money here, never spent that much on my hair and I've had amazing work done for half the price! Also wasn't even offered water and treaded through it there for hours, not a very good salon experience read more

I absolutely love this salon. When I moved from NYC 3 years ago, I dreaded trying another stylist. But Sam cuts my hair exactly the way I like it! I always leave feeling like a million bucks. Plus the place smells like Aveda products and never chemicals! I can go in feeling stressed and come out feeling (and looking!) so much better Update: 9/21/19: I am so happy with my new color from Planet Salon! When I came in, my hair was a nasty mess of dark roots, faded box color (eek!) that had grown out into an unnatural copper hue, and a ton of grays. I saw Heather for dual process and she did an overall rich brown, and added lowlights over half my crown for added dimension. I always go for a look that is as natural as possible, and I got exactly what I asked for. Additionally, I was able to close my eyes and relax to a scalp massage, hand massage, neck and shoulder massage, and got an added gloss treatment to make my hair super shiny. I had such a nice relaxing time getting my herr did at Planet Salon Go to Heather! read more

First time in 10 years for coloring my hair. Sher was amazing, listened to what I wanted (very natural looking highlights, easy upkeep, nothing chunky and grows out nicely), showed me some pictures for reference and then executed exactly what I had in mind.  Super happy with what looks like sun kissed highlights! -masks required inside read more

Last year Semur gave my daughter a wonderful color. She was thrilled with the results. It's time for touch up now, but we live in Alaska...So we called the salon and they emailed us the information for her toner. This way the local hairstylist can match the touch up. This is absolute 5 star treatment. I have THE highest regard for Planet Salon and Semur. Hope you guys will be successful for a very long time. You make your customers very happy. read more

Planet Salon - Fresh hair - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First off, great service to allow appointments when there are cancellations. They also have hand sanitizer and a check in with their friendly receptionist. Backstory: I needed to get my hair cut since I chopped it poorly during COVID. I will never do that again. Leave it to the professionals. I had an appointment with Sher and she is a new addition to the salon. What a wonderful add. She is so incredibly sweet and offered me great tips for air dried hairstyles. She really listens to your hair concerns and addresses them thoroughly. I was looking for a more voluminous hairstyle and Sher was able to cut my hair in a way that it sat with effortless layers. Thank you so much! I am so overwhelmingly happy with my haircut. read more

Had an okay experience there. I was getting a hair cut but I wasn't exactly sure of the length I wanted. I asked the stylist to try out an initial length and then possibly adjust it if I wanted it very slightly shorter. She said that she did not have time for any adjustments, so I would have had to come back for that. I was taken aback, usually stylists are a lot more flexible and understanding. I ended up leaving with a rushed haircut that I don't really like and now I'm just waiting for it to grow back. Please don't overbook your stylists and don't have them rush their work like this. read more

I wish I could give them zero stars. It is the worst hair salon I've ever been in and I'm really wondering how (and if!) their stylists got their certificates! What I wanted to do with my hair was the simplest thing ever (cutting my bang and shortening the length of my hair a bit). I showed the stylist (Joelle) several photos to make her understand what I want for the fringe. But she did not even pay attention to the pictures and cut my fringe way over my eyebrows when all of the pictures had fringe below the eyebrows. She claimed it was a misunderstanding. How can you misunderstand from photos!? Their stylists do not check with you and ask you if their doing towards what you want. They just do what they want and when they screw up they just apologize if you are lucky. They do not even know how to do a proper layering, probably the most basic thing in hair styling. Each part of my hair has a weird length and I do not know what to do now? I have to wait a whole year to grow my hair to the point I had before my appointment with Planet Salon. I have attached a picture that I showed Joelle and a picture of my hair. This picture is taken after another stylist in their salon tried to fix my hair. Stay away from this place. read more

Planet Salon - They really don't know how to cut hair! I am traumatized with this layering - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I just moved here this summer and had been avoiding getting my haircut because I've always had a hard time finding a stylist that cuts my hair right. I have curly hair that has a mind of its own and have had bad haircuts in the past because of this. I had been looking through reviews and prices for a few months and finally found a place that was reasonable for a cut and had a stylist that was recommended by other curly haired people. I was super happy with my cut from Joelle and she was very friendly and welcoming and her pricing wasn't outrageous. I felt very comfortable in her hands and my hair looked great after. I had a really disconnected layer that I thought looked terrible that she was able to blend and fix for me. She's really passionate about curly hair and I could tell she loves what she does. I'll definitely be back for my next trim! Bonus for shoulder and hand massage. Super relaxing. read more

I've been going to Lauren for extensions for about 2 years and hope I never have to go to anyone else! I've had many types of extensions from many different stylists and no matter what I tried they would always fall out with my real hair and cause so much damage. Since Lauren started doing my hair I've only had 2 pieces tops slip out and that's because I really drag out the time between my appointment and my hair has never felt healthier! She also can seamlessly achieve any length/style/color and makes sure your happy wirh the finished product. I couldn't recommend her more! read more
