I have been looking for a local hairstylist for last year+. After 2 prior attempts at different…read moresalons & stylists adventured to another place. I heard several recommendations for a few stylists here & not too far from home. I chatted with someone on phone, told them what I was looking for in a stylist's skill set & they recommended 2, both happened to already be on my list of 4 from here. I took a stab, picked 1 & made an appointment. Easy scheduling My experience was that the overall parking lot was a zoo at midday. I have a large vehicle & made circles 1.5 times. Entry to parking lot fools you when you 1st pull in, the small shopping center with all staff parking is very empty when rest of lot had only 3 spaces available. I found out, there's another side lot but only accessible from separate entrance off Georgia Avenue. Ive noted for next time. Upon entering, the salon looks nice, lots of stations as pictures showed and the front desk staff are very friendly, greeted me with smiles & acknowledged me right away. They had me sit in waiting area in front as stylist was finishing a client and I was a few minutes early. I waited a little bit, no big deal, and my stylist came and introduced themselves and took me back so we could discuss what I was looking for. After that, a wonderful shampoo & scalp massage. Heavenly & enough time provided, didn't feel rushed. Back in the chair & cutting began with sectioning & clipping hair up, then started with nape & worked a little on top sides. When stylist was almost done, had me check the back to make sure short enough, it wasn't, so more cutting. I appreciated being conservative & checking in, then going back to lift more length. I checked in the mirror again and felt length was good. Added some gel & that was it. OH! Mind you my hair is still wet. Luckily it is summer so I didn't mind, but this is 1st time I've left a salon with wet hair & not feeling complete. Now maybe we didn't communicate fully, maybe stylist planned to dry my hair, maybe not, but in talking I had mentioned I never blowdry my hair, which we talked about & isnt best for your hair & I let it dry naturally. So, maybe that influenced not drying my hair. I didn't fully mind except that I couldn't see a glamorous, LOL, but mainly professional ending & hair appointments are my only opportunity & treat to myself. What i also didn't know until now, after-the-fact, they do offer options for just cut & wash without blowdry at a lesser cost. So, I did save $. If I knew beforehand, or someone explained, I would have requested a completed style with drying. Because we talked the entire time and stylist was SUPER personable, I was distracted & on way home started wondering, did my left side get touched? Did I even get a fresh trim all around which I needed? It was 13 weeks since my last haircut & always feels nice when hair is freshly trimmed. OR did stylist only work on the main point of the nape being too long & top looking heavy, which was what I mentioned as main dislikes currently? I did bring a picture of myself t9 show what I wanted & liked about prior styling in the back. Once I got home, hubby said the back was uneven, longer on 1 side than other. He took a picture so I could see. Lucky he can cut a straight line, so he fixed. But next morning when I washed & let hair dry, the sides of my hair didn't look completely even & ends still looked needing a fresh trim. I guess my wonderingon my journey home was correct. I'm good at cutting my own hair, so next hair wash, I trimmed a little to even up sides & get a fresh cut on sides. SO, would I return? Definitely! I have options of repeat try or 3 others at this salon who were recommended. I'm willing & should return to try others as I overall had good experience. Everyone was very nice there & if I can get better parking option, definitely worth a 2nd visit. AND every customer that left appeared to be regulars & appeared very happy & looked great. Please know that they take credit for service, but tips have to be cash or Venmo only.

A massage from Paula was a surprise birthday gift from my husband. I am from Seattle, and I am…read morevisiting a friend in Marina Del Rey. Overall I was extremely impressed by every aspect of her massage, from her early arrival to the intake to the actual massage experience. Paula arrived 10 minutes early, which I appreciated since I wasn't really sure about the parking in my friend's complex. She ended up having to park across the street. She was very nice about this and due to her promptness we still started our massage at a good time. I always get a little nervous trying out a new bodyworker, but Paula made me feel comfortable during the intake and also during the actual massage experience. My body is unusually sensitive, and Paula was very attuned to my individual needs and preferences. She checked in with me about the pressure, and she made sure that I was feeling okay with her techniques. Once I needed an adjustment in the position of my head, and she immediately made the adjustment. I have had a lot of bodywork and I continue to be shocked by how many bodyworkers do not listen to what I need as a client. I am happy to say that you will not have that problem with this bodyworker. Paula combined energy work with her massage to great effect. I could feel my throat opening up while she gently but firmly worked on the back of my neck (how did she know that I needed that?! Wonderful!) and overall I felt very relaxed and refreshed after the massage. I was so blissed out at the end of the massage that I couldn't even think straight (to me, this is one of the signs of an outstanding massage therapist!) and she was very nice about that too. I am so grateful for the convenience of house calls so that I can happily feel super-relaxed for hours, without needing to drive myself home after the massage. I had my husband get back online and give her a generous tip, and she deserved every penny. After trying out over 40 bodyworkers in Seattle I have a regular massage therapist who is outstanding. Paula is in that league and it is hard to find someone who is. Thanks Paula for making my birthday that much more special with your professionalism, caring, and terrific work.

Her back yard studio is about the coolest thing in Echo Park with a million dollar view under a giant pepper tree . I can't recommend Paula enough.

I booked them for our annual staff appreciation event , an important day for my team, and it was a disaster from start to finish. The DJ promised to arrive an hour before our event to set up. She didn't show up until the exact start time. Then, while setting up, she disappeared for nearly 20 minutes, leaving us without any music for the first half hour of our event. When she finally started playing, the music selection was awful, I honestly could've just plugged in my phone and done better. We also specifically requested a microphone for speeches, which only worked within a few feet of her table. The event was outdoors (which I made clear from the beginning), so that was useless. When I asked why she didn't have more music options, she said she couldn't connect to Wi-Fi, something never mentioned in the contract. Afterward, I reached out to Vinny, who apologized and promised a refund. That refund never came. Multiple emails later, still no response. The lack of professionalism and accountability was astonishing. I'll be disputing the charge through my credit card company, but honestly, I just want to save others the same headache.
